One Hour One Life Forums

I'm working on your content, one life at time settle down bebe cakes. 

I really haven't run into any problems, if I don't like town leadership I raise hell.  Otherwise farm fitness and be leader.  I was like 3 days straight on top 10 fitness being leader can get stale....especially when you expect it.  I got leader at like age 2 one life

Good call Spoon that certainly factors in.

Yeah getting high 40s consistently isn't hard...bit of a hump getting over 50 and staying there tbh.  High fitness goes a long way to stopping griefing.  I doubt griefers will put in effort to go much over 50, so long as you over that should be able stop leadership abuse.

I spawned in ginger town after that massacre couldn't figure out why town was so fucked until I remembered this thread.  Put the town somewhat back on track, rebuilt the newcomen tower at smith, found a horse looted some pottery, water buckets and clothing from a nearby ruins.  Town has enough resources to survive long as a smith shows up soon and completes engine.

When I left at least two full cisterns so all they did was set the town back a bit, it should recover.

Wasn't that around the time it released on steam?  I remember the player influx being quite painful and was referred to as the babypocalypse?  Jason actually altered the game to accommodate the influx of players.   IDK, I don't miss the legions of new players tbh.

/necromancy  So about that new player guide...

I'm ok with the posse system honestly, I've had success with it.  I'd even argue when it's pulled off correctly griefers have it rough.  It works a bit better when you have leader, we really need to be backing leader first then questioning his judgement later.  If town determines leader was unjust can vote him out of power, exile and or kill. 

In my experience I think exiling in best and only killing if they flat out refuse to leave town.  I've noticed that players eager to kill an exile are often a bit morally questionable themselves.  I always try to go for exile as first severe punishment. 

It was funny I had twins spawn and immediately they start in with profanity and racial slurs...I informed them that I was very likely to get leader as high fitness and they suicided shortly after and I did indeed have leadership about ten minutes later.

Certainly needs some tuning and could be improved though...personally I think Jason is tying in his systems rather well.  They're very complex, a bit arcane and need to be documented better.

It's worth noting that you have mass communication as a leader and can use to teach town as well.  I think practicing emergency drills might be a good thing.  We did fire drills in school why not griefer drills til it becomes well known in community and in game?  I ordered town to hearth and formed posse from there it worked out, most of the town showed up.  Funny enough I had spent probably 3-4 minutes just saying join me before I actually issues the far more effective order.

We don't always need Jason to give us a magic bullet to solve our problems.

edit : ok done editing

barrier for entry is low FILL BERRI BOWL PEASANTS! lol jk not everyone needs to know every in and out of the game hell we all learning anytime jason makes a big update tbh.  what really hurts is when new players are unwilling to learn.  the idea of the game is to learn a portion of the game and be a part of a group that ideally has enough knowledge among them to survive.

it is complex but that's what i like about OHOL

Keeping it organized is a big task, my job is typically dining room attendant no joke. 

Rabbit pouches are best kept in baskets with three filled to keep people from running off with them.  Also a stack of extras so in total 9 rabbit pouches is advisable, 3 each for broth, whole and skim.

So how you stake out dining is like this you claim turf around crocs.  In this example you are missing three sisters soup, the kraut is optional as requires gingers.  The idea behind wall of cooked soups is you can create a square of food that immovable and place portable food around the stable food source.  That makes it reliable in food shortages, griefers will attack poprcelain in starvation attempts if there is soup.  Guard the bowls.

  Three sisters is important because even late generation a bowl of three sisters with two servings can fill you hunger bar most the time.   Real good design, however it might be efficient to have farms close to the stations but it also generates work clutter and leaves little room for trash.  Lets be practical people are gonna dump unwanted items all around there, especially when number one carrot farmer turns those empty farms into a carrot bonanaza.....yes I've had that happen to my dining room. LMFAO!

Aesthetics or making something visually pleasing goes a long way to preserving order...I used to think it was a waste of time.  The best tree kindle farm I ever saw back in the rift was a dude who made a bunch of trees to make kindling for town and turned into in a shrine to his dead mother.  People didn't cut those trees down unless it was a willful act of destruction.

LOL Misakas that's funny I've been going ham on the milk yum stations was my number one priority....I did the math by feel, milk's always been great even before bottle and pouch.  Corn is OP AF! 8/10 top ten is corn based? NERF CORN! umm wot? I MEAN GROW MORE CORN! 

Carrot pie is a surprise I always made it didn't think it was efficient tho.

Ok onions bad for yum then...maybe stop yumming those then.

The top 27 was pretty much my yum chain for long time, less the wine, shrimp, pumpkin pie bottles and pouches because newish or pain in ass, and the wild edibles.

I actually don't berry til way late so can be emergency food.  In older gens some serious crazy yum chains can be had.

Misakas is right long chains require some cooking yourself period.    Pick up coal cookiing, milk cows, grow / dry corn and profit.  I've actually been enforcing bottle and funnel priority on whole milk and skim last few days.  Usually I put the funnel in my bag and milk cows refill the bottle and pouches.  Stock the dining room with broth, three sisters, bread and butter...that's like most my lives past days.

Shot up to 46 genetic fitness til Bobopaclypse lost me 9ish fitness in one life.

This guy, who are you? lmfao. Well played dude.

edit sorry for bumping but had to LMFAO!

Agreed, also could abuse it and farm eves for iron in theory.  Not sure how that practical would be tho.  Didn't seem to establish iron scarcity either, only when expanding without preparation is it scarce.
