You really carried that Eve run son!
Wouldn't even have been surprised if sheep appeared before my time ran out.
Thanks!

Too bad about the farm though, but I'm sure it'll be fixed at some later gen.

On the sweet, lazy Cafiero Ranch there once lived a man called Ryan.
The ranch was a great one, which had stayed in the family for eleven generations, though the ranch had an much richer heritage than just that, which only was apparent by its great, great wealth of horses.
Ryan was born to a cowgirl who went by the name Kiki.
She was a hardworking gal who could tell you everything you needed to know about a horse just by sniffing at its fart.
Though, despite the ranch's inherent richness, the family was suffering from a high infant-mortality-rate, as had become a norm in some of the more fallout stricken areas of the world.

For this reason Ryan enjoyed a rather pampered childhood on the ranch. Although the loving upbringing he received from his mother, never allowed him to become spoiled.
He was rather matured for his age.
Therefore when his mother bore him a sister he knew it was his responsibility to wed her. For the sake of future offspring.
After some skepticism had been dissolved, they were happily married.
Ryan became so excited by this, that he vowed to build her a house. On the beach. Or at least near water.
After some scouting Ryan found three ponds at the juncture of desert, wetlands and yellowlands.
Maybe not super ideal in the long run, but it definitely gave off beachy-vibes.
Thus there he began to prepare their home. In the meanwhile his lovely sister-wife Millie worked at the ranch.
Like this they spent their their formative years, although soon they were young adults.
During one of Ryans many visits to the Cafiero Ranch he first met his amazing baby boy, Alfred.
Holding his nephew-son he proudly declared that the babe was to become a proud hunterboi.
And a proud hunterboi he became indeed!!
At the young age of twenty-something Alfred felled a bear! He proudly went on to wrangle many a horse for the Cafiero Ranch.
Ryan never build their beach house though, but his wonderful sister-wife still praised him when she came to see what he had done:
One small garden and one larger pen for the sheep.

Like this they lived out their golden years on the golden beach by the three ponds.

A little boring yes, though if YOU like excitement and sexy action adventures YOU should read the epic legend tale epos of Guy Whatstheirname (yes I forgot the name but it's truly epic!!)

Only my son stayed, although he died very young

When I first began playing it was thrilling never to know what kind of place I'd be spawned into, although less so now that I can do fine just as long as I'm being fed through infancy.
Therefore getting the chance to be born into a challenging survival situation is often more favorable than a well established settlement.
Other people have other preferences, but most of us in the forum community clearly favor the early stages of the family tree.
Since dying is really easy many people bypass the random spawn system by doing just that.
This is a much discussed topic on the forums which indicate the large amount of players it effects.
Please, Lets discuss it some more; Is it a dick-move? Are we gonna do anything about it? In which case what?

#186 Re: Main Forum » dying » 2018-10-16 12:04:53

I like the controls as they are.
Just get into the left-click right-click system and it works fine.
However I wish that wolves weren't able to just snipe me from out of nowhere.
I get that life is not fair, but sudden wolf death is so brutal in a perma-death game.
Snakes you can avoid by walking around trees as a precaution, but it's bad that they sometimes slither up to still-standing players's tiles and just straight up murder them.
I've been told that rattlesnakes tend to avoid people in the wilds - not pursue them.

Water should be cross-able without boat, but at cost of speed and temperature.
Also different levels of water would be nice.

Ok.
Gather around my children.
For what I am about to tell you is the story of a man called Guy Whatstheirname.
A man who lived many an update ago...
Guy Whatstheirname was born of a wild amazon on horseback. The moment he plopped out, his mother startled so that her horse ran straight unto a sneaky snek.
The wagon of the horse tipped over, but the horse was fine. Guys mother instantly ran to gather rope from the wild milkweeds growing nearby.
Meanwhile lil' baby Guy was left standing there among the wreckage, but his spirit did not waver - for he was one brave babe!
His mother on the other hand was so fertile that whilst out in the forest picking milkweed, she somehow begot him a brother, whom also she couldn't care for.
Guy Whatstheirname, through his shrewd baby intuition, knew his mothers grave predicament - for she was responsible for a horse and a carriage, which sadly can't be used to transport babies (yet).
Therefore he offered his kind, yet troubled mother to feed his baby brother while she did her errand.
She was grateful for this, and told them to venture west when they were grown.
For there lay the home of their people.
And become grown they did.
Thus the two brothers starting trekking westward.
They ventured far and ran for years and years, side by side.
Guy, however eventually strayed during their trek and went towards a bell he had once faintly heard as babe. For he did not believe the chances of reaching the motherlands were great at all.
But, thus the two brothers separated and were ne'er to see one an other again. :,(

Guy Whatstheirname barely stopped for food, but still, as if in some cliche movie montage, grew while running; into a big, stronk man, full of ruggedness and more stronkth.
Having ran for many a 'k' he stumbled on a vast city with many a house. It was totally abandoned as far as the screen could see, all for but one lone woman, for whom Whatstheirname asked to be made husband of.
She as well had heard the beckoning chime of the far-off bell in her youth and made an equally, if not more, amazing journey to reach this distant place. Now they both were full grown woman and man and naturally a baby followed suit. Together this new-founded family explored the many wonders in the ghostly remnants of this once a great city.
Among these wonders was a library filled to the brim with ancient lore and bad poetry (Yes it was the same town as Aurora lived in in that youtube video), big fields of gooseberry and mysterious roads leading off to only Jason knows where.

Guy and Missus Whatstheirnames' baby grew to become strapping young lad of much more stronkth and virility.
Seeing this, Guy Whatstheirname decided that the boy was to become a hunterboi and took him into the woods to snare the elusive rab. This was however to be the fatal mistake which cost Guy Whatstheirname his one and only child. Having lived for such a long time alone in silence, he now chatted carelessly away about the many tricks of the snare, totally neglecting the tricks of how not to starve to death.
The polite boy died politely while politely listening to his old man talk about rab hunting and ne'er got to see what more unfolded.

So distraught was Guy Whatstheirname, that he ran crying back to his wife, who after the many o' years they'd been out hunting, had become as old and gray as himself.
No longer having a future to busy themselves with, they now strolled along the wooden streets dejectedly. That's when Guy Whatstheirname spotted a man.
'Where did you come from?' He exclaimed!
The man replied naught.
'Are there more people around?'
The man replied naught.
'Who are you talking to love?' Missus Whatstheirname asked.
'I am talking with this here man' he replied, but his wife said that she did not see him.
That's how Guy Whatstheirname realized that he was talking to a ghost! yikes
He carefully tried to prick the man with the tip of his knife.
The man responded naught.
'There stands a ghost my wife'
They quickly moved along not to further provoke the specter.

Guy and Missus Whatstheirname spendt a few more years happily together until Missus Whatstheirname met her timely end.
Thereupon Guy roamed the city aimlessly throughout the next few years, until one day when he stumbled upon the spectral man once again. However this time, the man moved about quite busily, where as he had once stood still.
The ghostly man was moving hither and thither conducting his business in the town. And Guy Whatshisname spoke to him:
'I tried to speak to you and nothing you replied. I tried to stab you and nothing you acknowledged. My wife tried to see you and nothing was shown. Who are you?'
The man came to an halt and looked at Guy Whatstheirname.
'Well... You could say that I'm the architect of this place.' The man replied slyly.
A light flashed before Guys eyes as he proclaimed;
'You are Jason.'
And died.

I did the same thing once in a village where all the men had this identical, really long name and this guy, wearing the same clothes as the killer, just happened to be standing on the exact same tile as the killer had been.

He got so mad.

... But they healed him and I ran away.

I hope you didn't do this already! There is an way to get back, but not if you've done this!

All you have to do is get an Eve to 60 on any other server, then go back to the server you were chaining Eve's on, and if nobody else is on, you will spawn back at your lost Eve camp.

Wow! Thank you! That's really useful info...
Although it's probably too late for this settlement as I did log in after the wolf-death, just to confirm that the respawn location had indeed been wiped.

yup it is probably lost, although if you had a homemarker, it could be that at next server reset, that place is saved as first spawn, but that is only if nobody build something else with more players.
Or another player might be lucky enough to find it and tell you

So what do you mean by "server reset"? do you mean next game update or do you mean something else?

So that's why they don't re-spawn. . .

True fact.

Nopik wrote:

It might not be totally lost. In future Eve lives on that server, run around in a big circle around your spawn site and look for signs of humanity, and follow those signs until you find a camp. I have often been able to relocate old camps on unpopulated servers this

Wow! Thank you! big_smile

I've tried singleplayer OHOL on server 12 for some hours today to make myself a personal little village for later use when server 1 gets filled up.
However at the age of 54, after multiple eve lives, a bhenchod wolf cuts me short.... I have not respawned back there since and I suspect it's over for Roblingtown.

#198 Re: Main Forum » Snow Julien you stole from the wrong baby. » 2018-10-07 21:44:36

Actually Rohen is 'the fact' because he's from Poland, which, in case you don't know, is the country where if you are from, you are then innately all-knowing when it comes to the state of affairs in all other countries in the entire world.

So many people don't get this....

#200 Re: Main Forum » I didn't want this life » 2018-10-07 13:06:27

I think that many baby-suiciders have already played one or more lives very recently and are carrying pent-up frustration from previous deaths and unfinished businesses.
It has happened to me, that I have committed suicide, but only when it doesn't seem to be of any big consequence to the family. However I do try to quit playing at this point (or leave samsara as I like to call it).

I've realized that it's not the family or the location in which I'm born that decides the quality of my game time.
My one hour life is what I make it to be.

Now controlling into what I make things is an entirely different matter, and it has a lot to do with whatever mood I'm in.
