One Hour One Life Forums

No thank you.

The reason why I love OHOL so much, is that you get reborn into a new family with a new name, new layout and new people. Another life, another story.

Also not being able to cross the border to another biome seems ... bizarre. Why wouldn't I, a female or an Eve be able to get to the next biome, where the food or recourse is situated, that I really need. As an Eve that would suck ! Imagine you are spawn into the badlands (where one can find iron and no food) and you know you can already throw yourself at a bear. 

If you really want us to trade with other families, how about adding some sort of "islands" into the game. You could add huge rivers or cliffs that would act as barriers, separating the lands and the families living in those areas. Now why would they want to trade ? Add in each area unique resources that each family would want to have to be able to get higher to tech tree. That could be special clay to make bricks to be able to build a better oven or better quality iron to make better stuff, idk. The families would need to work together to build a sort of zip-line on each side to trade the goods.

Does it has to be a 50 year old person ? Can't it be those who hit 40 or 45 ?

When I only have ten minutes to live, I would want to check on my kids, see if there are jobs that needs to be assigned to people and just chit chat rather than approve every single tile of fence that someone wants to build. 

Also needing two or more elder to approve one single building is a bit much.

But so far the idea seems interesting.

Would it be possible to build a fence on a wooden floor ? Let's say you want to made some sort of entrance hall in your house with fences. Currently you can't put fences on wooden flooring.

But couldn't anyone come with a lock and lock me in or out of my own house right now in the game ?

I would love to lock my house so nobody can steal my pads or pies I just baked but if some player comes around and puts a lock on my door and runs away with the key, what then ? How could my kids enter their home and get the cooked pies ?

Oh god ... I thought like one or two murders, yeah that happens to me as well, but THIS ?! Please stay in town.

o How do you usually react to being murdered?

Recently, the first thing I do when I am born, is to check where the pads are or make some. That helped me numerous times when I got stabbed and I haven't died that way for a long time now. But if I get killed and no one can heal me, I tell everyone who it was, wish them good luck and enjoying the next life.

o What's the point of protecting if towns die on there own?

Why not ? Why bother making rooms, plant trees, making an Arena or a church when one day that town will be forgotten and disappear ? Because it's fun. We all know that the point of this game is that nothing will last forever. So why not protect a town to enjoy it a little bit longer ? 

o Do you ever get tired of farming?

Hell yea ! Especially when people come and ruin it or take stuff and don't want to help you to fix it. But I like to combine farming with something else, like feeding the sheep or making compost or even making burritos. Trying out new designs. If I'm completely bored of it, I'll do something else.

o Have you ever been tempted by the darkside even if just for a moment?

Many times. Every time when I get so frustrated at a town's IQ. But also when I'm in big towns and there is everything there and I see a lot of idle townspeople. That's when I have an idea in my head, to start a little bit of drama. To give them something exciting in their boring big city. I wouldn't hide any pads, needles and weapons and wouldn't kill any fertile female.
But I've never done it and don't think I will ever do it. Even if the idea is there.
 

o What's your opinion on griefers who are helpful in some lives?

Helpful ? How is griefing helpful ? ^^

If you are griefing in a smaller town who are still trying to survive, shame on you. If you are griefing in a bigger town however and are trying to add a little bit of drama in the town, not trying to kill everyone or hiding the most important things then yea go ahead. I'd gladly try to find you, kill you and congratulate you on your mission.

I had once a guy who kept stealing kids and killing old people. Not many of the kids tried to jump out of his arms, so he just did the town a favor if that kid is not smart enough to save itself. It took me a while but eventually I killed him. He said something like "You got me, they made me do it", still playing his role. I answered that he was very good but that his mission had to come to an end and the town had to recover. We had a nice chat.

Later on people were more excited to live in a town that just had defeated a griefer. They told their kids and Grand-kids the story telling them to curse him later on.

So yea if you are that kind of griefer, I don't mind ^^ Sometimes a little bit of drama is needed. But not to the point killing of a whole town.

o Do you consider suiciding to be a form of griefing as it can kill towns?

I consider it annoying and rude when people die the moment they are born. If they die later on, after they have had a look at the town, that's okay. At least say your good byes and strip naked before you run into the wild.

Would it be possible to have different wooden floor texture for the different wood you chop ? If you would chop a maple tree, you would get yellow flooring, light brown flooring for wood chopped from the Jungle and brown flooring for wood chopped from the Swamp.

I've never told this story, I don't think that it's a very impressive story but it was one of my favorite life ^^

I was once born as a male to nice town and got a bit bored. I didn't want to make pies or compost or tend the farms since I've done that a million times the past hours (sometimes everything at once). So I decided to stir a little bit of drama in this town and start killing.

Mind you, I've never killed unless it was a Griefer. I never felt the urge to finish a line by killing every female, even though I got tempted so many times (mostly in towns where the IQ level was bellow 0).

So this life, I decided to be the bad guy, to kill older men and women and some boys. I wanted to Roleplay as an evil man who became crazy after the death of his beloved sheep and started to kill in secret, outside town. I wanted them to fear the outside world.

But, as I mentioned before, I've never killed more than two people in one life. I didn't know how to kill without being caught. So I pretended to be a Wolf and Bear Hunter and tried to lure some boys to follow me into the wild where I could kill them in peace (this was before the temperature update and when mosquitoes were still doctors).

I found a boy who just grew hair and told him if he wanted to become a hunter just like me, killing all those bad wolves and bears. Excited, he followed me with a bowl of berries. Yes ! My first victim !

So I thought. I was about to kill this innocent little guy when his mother showed up with another infant in her arms. She didn't trust me and followed us. There I was with three witnesses. I continued to play my role as a hunter and explained the boy what we were going to do. He started to call me dad and got very excited. He never killed a wild animal before. The little boy in the woman's arms started to call me dad as well and said that he wanted to join us.

I felt bad. I didn't wanted to kill them, now that they were all hyped up and were looking forward to this adventure. Then the woman died. She was naked, had an infant in her arms and didn't have food near her.

So there I was, alone with one infant and one little boy. I could have killed the boy and let the infant starve, since we were quite far from town. But I didn't want to kill anymore.

I brought the baby back home, made sure that my son had filled his bowl with berries, took a cart with two baskets of pies, bow and arrows and lived my life teaching my son how to hunt bears.

I showed him how to kill them by standing on an object, we killed all the wolves in the area and made lots of hats and killed at least 10 bears. In the end, my son got bit by a wolf and since we didn't have pads near us, I told him to get bit by a mosquito swarm. But I stepped in one which caused my son's and my death.

It was a good life !

Love it ! ♥

The Drama Queen seems like the typical mother who gives her kids all her clothes, knifes and holds them as long as possible.

The Milklady

There is the Productive Early Camp Milklady, the Regular Milklady and the Daycare Milklady.

- Productive Early Camp Milklady : Lines the kids by the fire, near the berry bush, so she can easily feed them one after the other while tending the berry farm.

- Regular Milklady : Stands by the fire with the kids, not moving at all except when she has to go eat. Feeds the kids every 3 seconds.

- Daycare Milklady : Lives in a room with a bunch of babies to take care of. Makes sure the door is always closed. Chats with the Sponges or the kids. Helps out the chefs when the daycare is near/in the kitchen.

The Sponges

Mostly females but sometimes males as well. Stands near the fire and keeps talking to the Milklady, sometimes feeding the kids seconds after the Milklady fed them. Eats pie as a kid but as an adult forgets that they exists even when there is a basket right next to them. 7

Never moves a finger to help out at the farm/kitchen/smith/etc. or puts wood on a slow fire.

The Accuser

As a child, runs to any adult and screams "What's her/his name is a griefer". Not saying how this person is griefing this town, just keeps screaming they are a griefer. Sometimes starts cursing players without any reasons and tries to convince others to do the same.

The "Sheep"

Believes what the Accuser is yelling and kills or curses the person without hesitation, without prove, no questions asked.

Well about tea !

My idea was once you get snowballed too many times, you will turn blue and will have to sit next to the fire or else you will die to Hypothermia. People can give you hot TEA or turkey broth to get you back to health.

How about you turn blue when you get hit by too many snowballs and you have to sit by the fire to get your temperature back up but if you don't, you'll die to hypothermia after some time ?

If Jason adds some medicine one day, others can give you a root to nurse you back to health faster. Heck you could even eat hot turkey broth to get well ^^

Yea the town is still doing fine, was in generation 50 couple minutes ago. Spend my life making compost next to the sheep pen, was pretty relaxing ^^

During that time, the highest female number we had was 12 fertile females and 5 little girls running around. It was still high when I died so they are still going strong.
