YES !!! I want to make innocent babies high again !

I can imagine that you had a great time, everyone was so scared to come even near you xD We had even a little meeting discussing whether or not we should kill you ^^

About number 3 : In one of my lives, there was a lady standing still with a knife in her hand, two in her backpack, near the fire where females go and stand to feed the infants. Not saying anything, just standing there. Even if you talk to her, she wouldn't reply. That freaked out so many people and at the end she got killed ^^

So yeah, if you're fine being killed and doing nothing, you'll have a lot of fun observing the people being really careful around you.

That's really great, nicely done !

I had a kid once, that touched and combined everything. took flat rock or the long shaft away from the smithing area just to use it to make omeletts (that he burned) and make firewood out of the long shaft. Every time i tried to grab him and to explain him, just continued on doing it, not listening. Was close on killing him but he starved.

Or the kid that started to become crasy, saying that her uncle wanted to kill her, later killing him and others.

Hey there

Don't worry, once you get the hang of this game it will get easier trust me ! I can tell you what I have gathered from experience but I am sure the others here will add other important stuff. ( It's pretty late, so my vocabulary or grammar will not be the best, apologies for that ^^)

It really depends in which kind of town you are born into.

       A) A young town without sheep or tools :

If you are born to an Eve or your Eve Granma is still running around, not willing to let go, then your town just got set up and there is a lot of stuff that needs to be done:

          - make some baskets. Soil, Clay, food, cut branches, etc ... need to be transported to town.

          - speaking of clay : Make at least 5 plates and 3 bowls at the beginning and after, add some more plates to cook eggs. Don't forget that the smith will be using at least 2 to 3 bowls and plates for his iron, depending on how much he finds.

          - gather some berries outside of the base so they can either be consumed or be planted. Onions, Burdocks and Cacti fruits are also food that you can gather and people in town will love
            you for gathering them. Even if they don't say anything, believe me, they are thankful

          - gather firewood. Yew Branch and Small Curved Branch are perfect to be used as firewood. Do not cut the Straight Branches, they are too imporant to be used for fuel. The Smith will be 
            so happy if you make sure that the fire never goes out and that he has firewood until the axe is done, so he will be able to work faster and better. Also that is a good time to get those Straight Shafts so he can use them for his tools.

          - help at the berry farm. Add soil and water to those who are getting dark green and expend the farm, when population is rising. Little Tip : Don't make a huge berry farm like you
            normally see them. Leave some space so you can walk through much easier and put down some stuff.

          - plant some carrots to eat. This is the only exception that you can eat the carrots. You don't have compost or sheeps yet and you have to focus on food, so berries and carrots are a great nutrition source. Continue to plant carrots and either hide
            them or tell people to stop eating them when you guys are about to get a sheep.

          - If you think that the berries and the carrots can support the people in your town, you can start making some Stew ! Because Stew is fun and amazing.

          - plant some milkweed. Milkweed is so important ! Stone hoe doesn't last that long and will consume a lot of ropes. Having milkweed planted near you will help you a lot, because you won't have to go out with your basket and search for milkweed.

If you don't know about smithing, farming or cooking, etc but want to learn those stuff, I advise you to tell them that you want to learn and observe them for a while. People are actually very nice and will gladly help you to learn new stuff. Just listen and watch what they are doing and ask if you don't understand. Don't be that guy who just grabs stuff from them and try out and sees what happens ^^

Once the tools are made, you can start making a sheep pen. There are a lot of nice ideas how to make one in the forum

         B) A huge town with everything (sheeps, compost, tools, roads, etc.)

Now this town has everything, or so it seems. People tend to roleplay more, the first knives are appearing, murder is happening around every courner and the work gets forgotten. What you can do in bigger towns is :

          - Work on the berry farm as a toddler. Like I said, the sices of the berry farm are often getting out of hand in bigger towns and few people actually look after it. Moms tell their kid to farm until older but most of their kids just run straight to granma
            or granpa and stand near them, being so sweet and innocent but ready to snatch those clothes from your fresh dead body. I'm sorry, I got carried away. So yeah work there until you have a bigger stomach and continue if they are getting forgotten
            again.

          - plant carrots and wheat and make some compost. With a huge berry farm comes great consumption of soil and water. And you will need those berries so you can feed the sheep to get wool and poop.

          - look after the sheeps. Give them to eat (Full bowl of berries and one carrot), either the hairless adults for wool and babies or the babies for their poop (only a fed lamb will give you poop as soon as it gets bigger)

          - clean up a bit

          - plant milkweed. You will need them to make boxes or carts !

          - tend the other farm with the corn, beans, squash etc. Because STEW !

          - be a Gatherer. Gather some round stones for making wells, straight shafts for fence kit ( for deep well) or clay to make more bowls and plates.

          - be a Hunter. Kill those Wolves or boars that are too close to town ( but be careful! People get scared when you are running around with a bow and arrow or when you are asking for it without telling them why) or get those rabbit sto make nice
            backpacks.

          - make some carts or boxes

          - be a Medic and make sure that you have your sterile pads and needle and threat ready

          - build some roads, inside town and outside town, so others can find the way to your town.

Don't be too hard on yourself, it's always difficult at the beginning, but if we managed to make it, so can you Don't be afraid to ask in the forum, to ask your mom, uncle or cousin to show you stuff. Last time, I showed a guy how to make compost and how to medic and some stopped by to learn as well. We had a great time, he had to heal the girl who was supposed to stab me so he can learn on me but as I was putting down the knife I stabbed her instead ^^ Upsie.

What I did at the beginning was opening this site : https://onetech.info/ and I had it open when I played. So I could always look up some stuff that I wanted to do. Maybe that could help you too.

There is still so much that are important, like using the hoe on two piles of soil and not on one. Things you should or shouldn't do but there is already a great topic about that   Things You Shouldn't Do (A Guide)

I hope I could help you a little bit

I like the obesity idea as well as the diseases. But I would add sicknesses a bit later, when being a medic is more fun and it's easier to carry pads and such around. Have different plants that can cure diseases and can be crafted into birth control serum. A blue for no babies and a yellow for babies.

Okay guys, you can't tell me you never did something not very intelligent, giving a baby a backpack or some stuff that shouldn't have been given. Everyone does some mistakes.

Lotus gave this player her stuff because this kid was reborn at least three times and went every time back to the player who was nice to him. He must have been a new player and if given the chance to life one proper life, Lotus would have teach him a bit.

I found this story cute and nice ^^

Sure some stuff should have been done differently in that but that life has been lived. Move on
