One Hour One Life Forums

Having hungry work targeting extra "pips" from yum first would allow for elderly with high yum to continue cutting down trees, at least to a later point than now. Which makes sense: they're fit, and there's plenty of real examples from history of older guys working as lumberjacks, usually after years of experience.

So in your mind I'm defending a group of people I don't know, because I'm defending someone that I do know, who happens to be defending said group (tbh I only read him defending himself, but I've admittedly not read through the entire thread). Guilty by association and unless proven otherwise, right? Tsk tsk, there's that mob mentality again.

Btw does this transition of guilt also apply to lawyers defending guilty clients? I'm neither, but I do wonder.

Pop fucking corn.

The OHOL Discord is a kindergarden dominated by socially awkward and mic shy teenagers together with a moderator who arbitrarily abuses her powers at a whim without any repercussions from the server owner, and then bans people who complain about it.

I'm not a part of this aforementioned "griefer group", if it even exists, but I have no trouble believing DarkDrak's post in that the accusations about him griefing are entirely fabricated (most probably based on pure guesses coupled with a mob mentality that is dominant among the most active people on that server). I have two reasons for this:

First, I've played with DarkDrak before and I know him to be a good and mature player.

Second, there have been continuing accusations for months now, mostly by the same two people, that I too am some kind of griefer, when in fact I have never griefed. These sorts of baseless accusations seem quite common on that server.

I was actually tempted to make a forum post cataloging this months-long smear campaign by the aforementioned two individuals, but it's not worth the time and actually now I feel kind of sorry for them after I learned that at least one of them is just a 16 year old girl, who in her own words has been diagnosed with autism. I guess that explains something.

Had this happen to me as well yesterday. I was Eve Whisler and was working at camp, when my son came back telling people to run. Sure enough he was trailed by Eve Sky carrying a basket with an arrow and an unarmed but fully grown son. I had prepared for situations like this and got the bow out that I had made earlier. Assuming they must've had a bow of their own nearby, and because she was carrying an arrow and was still fertile to top it off, I went for the Eve. About 2 seconds later out of thin air a loaded bow appeared in her previously supposedly unarmed son's arms, and he shot me. My line survived through a daughter but two generations later the Sky family wiped the rest of us out. Had it not been for that strange lag spike, the roles might've been reversed.

Later in the evening I had another strange occurrence. I was out in the wilderness alone but heading home which was close, when seemingly out of nowhere a related baby popped out crying and running after me while saying "gma". Mind you, I was well into infertility at this point and furthermore, crying babies are supposed to be able to only say one letter, but this one said three. Instinctively I was compelled to run back to save this poor baby. As I was about to pick him up, he turned into a teenage boy with a knife and stabbed me.

Not sure I can cough the latter incident up to lag.

Berry farms that are not 3x3 with the well in the centre.

People on these forums like sharing their in-game stories, so here's mine related to this topic:

Not long ago, a bit after the swords update, I was quadding and one of us in the squad was feeling belligerent, wanting to invade a foreign town. Sure enough, we soon came across some foreigners. It was just a colony, but it was set up very close to our town. I felt pity on them and decided we should not raid anyone that life. But then they started feeding me berries, crashing my 30-40 minutes of yum chaining... That day every man, woman and child of that colony and then their home town was put to the sword, snuffing out their entire lineage, all because one or two of them thought force-feeding berries to a foreigner was a brilliant gesture of goodwill.

I still felt sorry for them, as we had just lived a full 60 minutes as quad mothers in their home town the previous life; we were probably slaughtering our great-grandkids. But oh well, such is life in the wasteland.

I guess the lesson to be learned here is don't force-feed people, you'll never know what might happen.

What comes to killing people in your own family for force-feeding, that alone as a reason is a bit extreme, and one should assess their behaviour and productivity as a whole before jumping to drastic conclusions.

The farm should mostly be done within gen 1, if not entirely. With a few kids helping, you should be wholly capable of getting sheep as well, before dying as Eve.

Anyway, we're talking about yum chaining here, i.e. not Eve camps, where most of the time you can't yum very high.

In a town with at least a completed farm and an oven, there's really no excuse not to yum chain. And if everybody in the town did it, you'd probably almost halve your collective food consumption, leaving much more time to pursue other things than e.g. constantly maintaining the berry farm.

After having dozens of great yum chains being forcibly ruined through force-feeding, I've learned to be very careful about standing next to people with food in their hands. That being said, I've not noticed an increase in force-feeding. Just the same old.

Don't know if it's properly mentioned in any patch notes, but you can easily see it for yourself by repeatedly /dying.

IMO spawning as Eve should be something you can choose prior to spawning. Currently if you want to Eve you have to /die through around 5-8 lives, and if something goes wrong and you want to try again, at best you'll get one more shot before you're out of lives. At worst? Well, tough luck bucko, no more tickets for you; you've gotta wait till you've 5-8 again.

So if being Eve were something you could predetermine through e.g. a checkbox prior to spawning, you could also decide on a name prior to spawning. If all members of the party enter the same name, their Eves will be sisters. It's by no means perfect, and the only thing differentiating their names could be e.g. Roman numerals, but it'd still be a lot better than what we have now.

I quad a lot and we actually tried quad Eve'ing again after a while for a few times. We were all in a call and without voice comms it would've been nigh-impossible due to the different languages. Also our descendants ended up killing each other, as is always the case with multi-lineage towns. Even wrote them a note to tell them of their origins, but that didn't stop them.

If you want to found a new town in the current version of the game while playing with others, then realistically your best bet is to be born to an existing town and then leaving it behind. You won't get to choose a name and thus make the lineage "your own", but it is what it is.

EDIT: I found out after writing this post that with the current system you can actually easily /die through all 12 lives without getting an Eve spawn once. This must change ASAP.
