One Hour One Life Forums

1. Broken.
2. A game that sounds awesome on the paper but you feel scammed in the end.
3. Destroy  in a few seconds what you wasted hours on building.
4. Players.
5. Race restrictions.
6. A bowl of berries with a carrot.
7. Slinky, because I met her when I was a noob and let me expand her town without saying anything, even when I made weird buildings. She's also a great player with logic and anticipation. And Tarr because he's the bug-digger.
8. Too many. I quit, play again from time to time (on low-pop) because of limitations (not only race restriction), repetitive tasks, grieffers and the anger it brings in game, forum and discord, Also now I have a life.

Having different colors for buildings is a good idea, even if now (with the family update) it's tiresome to do.
I also like a lot the grape fences for sheep pen.
What bother me most are the blocking path items (keep in mind I'm lazy and anything that can save time is welcome), what I surrounded in red on your town picture :

Rows of tombstones, rows of carts, rows of tables. Notice how I rearranged your tables into diagonal, it never keeps you from going throught.
The tables I surrounded in orange are inaccessible from the middle spot (fire).
You may prefer this set up (for tacos) :

or even better this one :

You can put all the uncooked dough on table, cook one, right click table to switch bowls, cook etc, then use round stone on the table to smash all three bowls of dough. You can also reach box behind you in right clicking it (cook one bowl, right click the tile, not even the box itself, just the tile, to switch bowl and cook the meat, repeat until you're done). Then cook your tortillas barely moving.
Also, I cut your railroads into two parts. The way you designed it, it can't be used for sheeps. If you cut it in the middle of sheep pen, it can be used both for rabbits and sheeps. Then make it reach the kitchen (because it's so annoying to gather).

I would have added boxes to the pig/goose farm. Again because I'm lazy, each time you want to feed the pig/goose you have to go out of your pen. Add boxes between corn and farm and voilà. One box with slot (for drying corn) one without (for bowl of kernels). You enter the pen, you can feed as many animals as you have bowls of kernels.

I can't say anything about sprinkler nor plow as I don't use them.

I always choose a spot for my town- to-be with those requirements : berry bushes, wild soil, maple trees (of course, irons veins close by). I quite never remove berry bushes nor maple trees. Then, I always want straight roads going to/leaving from the well (and leading to a cistern, again to save time !). Then I build around it. Every profession will need the well.

This is my latest town, that I find pretty convenient :

Sorry for the transparent trees, but if you look closer there are maple trees right of the kitchen and some right of the forges. I use them either for fences, kindlings or paper. All of them are wild.
Same goes for the berry bushes : none of them is a domestic one. So yes, it may scare purists, but you wouldn't believe how many soil (=grow wheat, feed a sheep...) I saved not removing them and replacing them with a pretty 3x3 domestic patch.
As we are on the vegetable farms (and I agree with you, natural ground is better to find stuff than pine floor) I found out a three tiles gap between farms is awesome : put boxes to store vegetables in the middle one, use the left and right to drop soil/bowl/hoe/bucket, and never be bothered by the box.
My farms are too small for 20-30 people (but you'll never have that amount of player in your town, this is the whole amount of players on BS2 ) but yours have too many beans. They can't stack and people (including me) always missclick and harvest some, not knowing what to do next with them.

I may have forgotten things I wanted to say, it's late here for me. You may say I have too many pig farms in my town, that's because it was an experiment. And no, no nursery, as when I play on BS2 my kids are always near me while I'm working.

Oh yeah ! Put some yummy spots a bit all around your town. And use skewer on wheat to make a basket.

That's all for now !

Ridicule never killed anyone, and what doesn't kill us makes us stronger.
Therefore, ridicule makes us stronger.

I don't understand why you use waystone inside your pen Pein, can boar pass through doors ?
Also to me, you need two entrances because you can't predict where the pigglet is gonna go.

It seems like ancient walls and locked doors is the best solution (as long as boar can't pass throught doors) to not be grieffed. Tho, it annoyes me that you don't have direct access to storage to quickly feed pig and remove its meat.

Bad new, I built a pen this morning, using double 5 railroads and the boar escaped while I was off screen. I don't understand why, it shouldn't have, and the pig never escaped.
EDIT : this is actually because you need 6 railroads.

This is indeed a very pretty image !
It deserves to be shown on your post and not as an ugly link. Next time, write this :

I once went to New Caledonia and got amazed of how many different bananas they had. And I'm talking about domesticated bananas. America and Europe quite only know the long, thin and round banana (Cavendish) but some are small and thick, some are more squared... The flesh has the same aspect but the texture and taste aren't the same as the Cavendish. Look at this man holding two kinds of banana (I can't remember their names, sorry):

Fun fact : they don't grow on the tree like the man is holding them, nor like we see them in game, and nor like the Cavendish, they grow in the other direction, their "butt" toward the sky.

About the garlic, our grandmothers (at least here) advice us to eat one clove when you feel you're gonna get a cold or the flu (maybe because of its vitamins). So yes, it's as "disgusting" as eating raw onions, but you can eat it raw.

We also stick some into pork or mutton before cooking the meat, it adds flavour.

You can also rub toasted bread with garlic before putting it into your fish soup.

And yes you can braid garlic, but it's easier with their stems (please no more recipie using milkweed, nobody plants it) :

Garlic is the new tomato/onion problem. You barely can do anything with it, and it's gonna take ages to be fixed.

Spoonwood is like the Phoenix, he's reborn from his own ashes.

I forgot I had to choose wisely my words with you... By "good", I meant how comfortable/handy/smart/advanced you are with the game. Wondible is "good" at the game, however he has a sh*tty score.

By "potatoes", I meant potato players, those who don't contribute at all in their life because they either crashed or went AFK, but some people keeps feeding them to not lose points for this stupid score. This is indeed not a crafting competition, but you can admit that the one who crafted 20 bowls and plates is more useful to the family and future generations than the one who ate all the berries.

Why do you care so much about leaderboard ? Except for being first on something, I don't see the point.
It doesn't reflect how good you are with the game, nor how much you contributed to your town.
If it reflected the number of crops you watered, the number of steel you made, then okay. But on the opposite, you waste food on potatoes to save your score.
And being leader for what ? Telling newbies "get iron" when they don't know how to ? More advanced players don't need such orders, they can see the town needs iron or farms need to be tend.
I've been leader several times, and found it annoying. The only good thing is, when I found a family my town needed and I'm too old to get back to town, I can tell them from far away "browns are this amount of tiles and this direction from us". This, and rick-rolling my followers.

And now, you're not rejected anymore ?

I wanna follow this guide but :
1) I don't know what  "BOWNS" are
2) I don't have allies/mates
3) I dont know what a LEADER YES OR YES nor a MATE YES OR YES is
4) I don't have mates anyways
5) I don't listen when people shout at me
