Also, I must note that what I'd ACTUALLY like to see is oil become semi-renewable so that it balances better with other necessary racial goods, but this game only gets nerfs not buffs. I'm not wasting my time suggesting something that buffs.

“Heavy yummer”
Yep that’s me right there. Unless I’m using the power of calcium to kill swamps

Baked potato can get me some serious bonus pips later in life.

A town lasting a long time wouldn't be a problem is there were more content to give players in developed towns things to do (not toy/fun things, but necessary things) Of course, the cry for content is nothing new in this community. A single, solo developer, no matter how talented or good they are, cannot keep up with the demands of content that a modern gamer generally needs.

Also, a small player base = few populated towns = you'll see a lot of the same towns over and over.

Morti are you talking about after the first update or the second one with the server crash fix? If you’re talking about the first, I know the first bells to be rung were will town and the other town just ~500 tiles west of there. Those are roughly 1.5k southeast of Qin town. The only town that has a functioning radio besides qin town is will town I’m pretty sure so it must have been people there.

Also, were you a brown girl? I may have been your daughter. Think my moms name was Emily but I could be wrong.

Also you seem to hold a lot of the same sentiments about this game that I do. I wish we had more players like you.

Zucc/Succ as it was so lovingly named, actually had very humble beginnings. Back when the last apocalypse happened, if you remember, the blacks, whites, and gingers were all living fairly close together (at the time I think the were all the Boots family). However, the previous brown family had died out, as a result they had a new eve spawn, and were seeemingly MIA for a while. I remember spending many lives tryin to find my way to connect the fams but nothing ever worked. Because of this, rubber was a real struggle for a very long time.

Many people like myself kept trying to make bell towers in the main Boots towns, however typical griefing (intentional or unintentional I'm unsure) kept disassembling them and resetting the stabilization timer. That's when I knew the only way this was going to work was go off site, and make it where it didn't get much foot traffic. So I headed west from the white Boots town, and started development in a fertile piece of land, alone. This is how Zucc was born.

Many times I would sacrifice my gene score just to get male, so that I wouldn't have to worry about anyone tampering with things. Sometimes I would keep a female play, and just run back to the white fam during my fertile life. Many many lives of back and forth were taken while I started the basic layout and farms for the town (might I add, the original layout only had four berry patches surrounding the well, now look at it!). There were times where once the bottom layer of bell tower stabilized, I knew I didn't have to worry about it being reset anymore, and had small bursts where families lived there. They never stayed long though. As my tower was going up, families were spreading further and further out. The life I finally managed to get the bell on the tower, I was born in a ginger camp over 1.5k east of Zucc. But that life is where everything began.

I had never thought Zucc would get as big and overgrown as it is today. It was only meant to be a call for help, a way to pull people together so we could all have water again. And truthfully, after the bell was placed and people of all four races started moving in, Zucc has very fun and memorable beginnings. I remember when the tat shop first went up, and everyone was having a blast with that. Back then, things were smooth and everyone was working in tandem.

But, as time would have it, eventually the melting pot of a town became a typical bell town scene. Big messes, sprawling constructions with no real clear purpose, and of course, grief and bobo's gang. This caused a lot of bad memories for people, and made them come to despise Zucc. This was the time I even started to work on other things, and develop a Zucc 2.0 per se (this is where the triple bell town to the southwest was started, and is now on and off thriving).

Some early screenshots I took before the town was populated:

This was after the town was populated, same day I rang bell for first time. I was at work at the time, so someone else took a screenshot for me:
