Hello there
Just wondering if there any rules for setting up a IC shop in busy locations around anvil? So for example setting up a IC shop outside conclave just before its in session or setting up on a busy street that’s not nation specific location (given thats its not obstructing anything).
Thanks in advance 
There’s no rules for/against setting up IC shops wherever you like - just, as you note, try not to get in the way as you might annoy people who need to move through that area in a hurry!
At E1 just passed, there was someone with a tiny stand selling alcohol inside the Conclave tent about two metres from the entrance. All that talking can be thirsty work.
Rule 0, Rule 1, and Rule 7 apply, of course*, but other than than, go for it. You may be asked to move along by the militia if you’re being loud or obstructive
And if you try selling popcorn outside the Senate, I may fight you for the spot.
