played one on server two knowing i gonna be alone
spawned near a desert and closeby was some swamp but seen cactus spawning and some branches, so i went searching
it was a sign that someone was there less than an hour ago
havent found any basket so was kinda more than half hour ago someone just messed a bit around
found a nice pen, a locked box, most probably containing knife, no key found
found the shear tool and a loin cloth, rest i made myself, backack and wool clothing, one alum so i painted myself blue at old age
didnt had chance to increase the bell tower, but made some compost, cut all sheep which was unsheared and planted wheat
lot of mess cause of decayed baskets
had no kids so i just got soem iron, forged a knife, left two ingots, nothing special, i enjoyed this run more than overpopulated server 1. no lag, was the best part as i cant play afternoon on overpopulated places
so if you are bored of current random server, just downlaod an addon for selecting server and come to other server, can be fun a small family where everybody is valuable and we can get a good start more cooperation

there are many here on forum, i prefer the ones which show the population currently and custom server box, google on this:
sitename:https://onehouronelife.com/forums/
add keywords like addon server selector, works better than internal search
using this one

this was first and probably most advanced, i would give it a go, first was only linux so i didnt bothered
https://onehouronelife.com/forums/viewtopic.php?id=1047
seen like 4 or 5 different ones, sorry if i left someones program out, the main thing is to select a server, you see the population, you can do this with friends and get less population, by my experience, first or first two servers are full and rest is just a few players

no Eves
1 female baby - suicide
1 male baby - left for dead
1 male baby - lived as constructive society member till 60
14 may 2018
an Eve spawned in snow, found soon a good spot but all of sudden not only a wolf appeared nearby but two bears, so i run & tried to find a next spot, managed till 46, didn't have much fun with this run, just too frustrating to be constantly running
1 female baby to wild Eve - suicide
2 female babies in settlement - suicide
1 male baby in settlement - a deranged gameplay, didn't have much fun playing, died at 43 killed by a wolf trying to kill it
as clearly noticeable
my fun playing OHOL has decreased
there is no civilizaiton, there is no fun living in OHOL, just chore up the tech tree asap, nobody cares, all nice players went either away or fled to private servers
i prefer to play other games meantime
family tree is just not enough
not only killings & murders are demotivating
it's the entire senselesness of the endevour of survival again & again just to climb the same tech tree again & again & end up dead, in most cases even unnoticed, unsung, not even mourned
in OHOL there is not a bit culture included
civilizaiton without culture is no civilization at all !!!
& nobody fucking cares - that's some "civilization"

played yesterday few times, several murders occured & two times outright outspoken mass murder, it's now even genocide happening
the systematic erradication of all endevours on continuation, the systematic murder on family lineages
on official servers is playing as family not possible anymore, there will be at least one murderer & players are just leaving the game
the murderers will be the last to go, they are the rulers in OHOL, Jason has invited them & nurtured & catered to them, so they thrive
it's not the game i wanted to play
there are better games than OHOL if i wanted a game surrounding killings, tons of them

So far out of four hours of gameplay (about 6 lives), I've had 2 of my top 10 lives. That's considerable considering I've had close to 1000 lives that I've lived to adulthood and beyond.

just a note about a town - Cowtown or something similar
i was murdered there, for nothing
meantime it's really just lame, just lame
but that's not the point
the point is
i was born into that very town, where i was murdered for nothing, as A FEMALE BABY - P E L E A Z E !!! where is the incentive for me to nurish other players in a town where i was murdered while i was starting to actually being helpful ? i wanted making carts, i wanted to optimize the pies production, milkweed farm, backpacks, the usual needs ... nothing became out of this because some player for some reason removed me from this my gameplay & then the game sets me exactly there, where probably the very same player might maybe become even my own kid ? yeah - NOT GOING TO HAPPEN
on a side note
that i am being being murdered again is to test if my suggestions to not being murdered, not being an easy target actually are helpful or exaggerated
so far i've been murdered in the last couple of days two times again & if i would have followed my own advice, i would have lived, so - yeah - my suggestions are very reasonable
here's the list of suggestions
so you've been murdered & want to avoid it next time ? here's how

had an eve run with no lag, kept my first son and later a daughter, ended up hearing music, so i was 36, when my last daughter born i had two onions left in the biome, she died
i made the bowl and all tools, choosed a good spot farm wasnt far, mb 5 min, even less kids needed
http://lineage.onehouronelife.com/serve … &id=100047
i was daughter of a skilled lady, she seemed to abandon me, in snow, but ifound a desert and followed her, she was trapping, she raised me, throwing snares, feeding me, eating 4 carrots, asked to bring me home
big sis was farming, helped a bit, then made my pack
mom brought a lot of rabbits
seen two other old ladies
base was placed bad, kilns blocked by terrain, lot of ponds but too cold
ended up with few more sisters and my own kids, soon we were around 10 then 15, i just dropped them near fire, went scouting
found a desert with close water and kinda connected green biome, wasnt perfect but okay
made a farm then brought seed, later showed a daughter where it is, when already was some carro, then i told others in farm, for my surprise many followed, then again told the rest
ended up great grandma, many died of famine, snakes, some left alive, a daughter and a son, few more, maybe outside
was a good decision to move, still a mess to have so many people
rest was 2hol in spawn city, lagging and crashing games, literally every time until 11 a clock

@pein
looks like you were lucky with this settlement, this second community you described
similar are my experiences too,
smallish settlements with not so many people are in most cases the most peaceful, where players just want to have a chill time & support loosely the community
that's the most fun imo, you don't need to fight for your bare survival anymore & you can start to shape your life the way you want it, it's still hard but it's not the same berry bushes & the same fire bow again & again
i played yesterday an interesting life in a similar smallish settlement
http://lineage.onehouronelife.com/serve … l_id=97186
i was Jake Light, i wanted to hunt rabbits, as i often do, but ended up hunting wolves, my entire life i hunted several wolves, i think 7 ? didn't have time to count
the settlement was poor, i had no clothes, no backpack, so i had to rely on myself & the food around mainly & survive inbetween while hunting those wolves down
there was only one arrow already there in town, i made 3 additional, because there were just too many wolves, i lost one arrow
as i killed the last wolf in the badlands the bears would have been the next target, one bear was already around & there were several caves, 3 i think
as i was dying of old age, my Nameless Nephew grabbed the bow & arrows, or maybe just one arrow & headed to kill the bear, i think he was quite inexperienced with bears & got killed instead by the bear with the one arrow in the back
but i was dead then already - it was a stressful but good, very rewarding life

i got a nice life yesterday
http://lineage.onehouronelife.com/serve … &id=108330
generation 5
i was jim, my mom was pretty old when i was born, she raised me, then i had a lil sis
she didnt realize she is old but i fed her twice repeating "you are old" until she finally understood
there were a few guys there, uncles i presume
the city had a small pen, tools, some room, seems it been abandoned and some parts remained, a stone wall, some wheat, few dungs, like 12
as a boy i started moving farm into desert, all our wells were dry, was a quite few, middle of small green biome
desert next to us, so i moved a few tiles, made a small farm
my sis thanked me, giving two pies she was hiding, for kinda no reason as we were like 5 people there
her kids were very dumb, i tried to show one the farm, she jumped out, but then looked at farm, but then picked up some stupid thing, dropped it and i knew she gonna starve but she kept moving so couldnt fed her to talk
the next daughter was already 4 years with carrots in backpack she kept telling "f" when already had hair and was near a farm, but she also moving so i couldnt fed or talk to
then she had a weird son who wastoo big but had some weird sexist milk fantasies and starved betwene two farms, also with backpack on back, we had like 4 good backpacks and 1 bad one, the guys suicided? cause my sister was afk for a bit, was in workplace as i understood, we seemed doomed
then she was having more kids, seems she was bored or forgot but this daughter actually survived and messed a bit around farm
then the next one just running around as her mother made pies, we really did everything but kids were paraoid and stupid same time
sis turned old, i was doing everything, a lot of water runs, made a well as small boy, upgraded later, lured a bear out of city, killed two snakes, but didnt wanted to use my well, as was the only good one, rather went with 3-5 pouches and got water
then realized the small desert under the pen was better to make carrot farm, moved the rest of soil again. somehow explained to nameless niece, to move carrot there, make wheat other side, as we needed more baskets, and some pies after i killed all the sheared sheep
i was too old by then, i tried to make one more compost but havent had time to get a bowl and go south to find a bush
i seen two kids, quick after each other, gave the girl my pants and ha, as i knew i can get another, then i gave the son same, as i didnt wanted to play favorites, each of them got one shoe
now i see that her first daughter had a son who killed all 4 daughters of my niece, 1 of his own sisters, 2 cousins and he died at 18, what an idiot
then all they had is one female left until generation 14 when all died out

i reborn to a city in which we died out, so new family
i made a pen even if we had no females
little to no progress was made, maybe some tools, but havent seen any wool clothes
but people shooting left and right, they shot mom when she named me, unfortunately i jumped out so i was nameless
then like 4 more kills
was a pretty bad location above a few bear caves, and arorws were needed, seen 3 rugs so people actually figured out
then comes a stupid griefer pissing on my charity work
happened first time i got back to a dead linage city where i made work for "lucky eves"

test full gameplay with all lives
played today after 20 days hiatus (because i had it with murder)
& after couple of food updates & some changes to killers & victims (don't understand how that works or if it is at all doing something useful)
1. born as male baby in town - murder !!! several people ran with knives in backpacks, my brother was murdered, one guy with knives asked the other guy if he should kill me, before that i found my young niece & a young cousin who cared for the farms dead, they were maybe killed as well, there was plenty of food around
i prefered not to live further in that cold & confused town
2. born as female baby in town - no murder !!! i had 4 kids, 2 suicided, i cared a little for soil & farm, made baskets, a cart, got some supplies, died at 58
3. born as male baby in town - murder !!! there was a murder by mistake - stepped on a snake with 29
- - -
summary so far with all the food : too complicated, it will probably become even more complicated
the stuff lying around in a chaotic scattered manner is quite disturbing, is constantly in the way, causes even deaths
- - -
4. born as female baby to wild Eve - no murder !!! mother & brother died early, i was lucky being able to eat on my own short after the mother's death, had 4 kids, didn#t have time to set up the camp, the first Eve was too inexperienced, i died with 33 because too many kids, not enough food to reach in time
5. born as female baby in town - murder !!! went to catch rabbits to make some fur, backpacks, clothing
the need to eat different food is distracting
there was a murder, was told that it was willingly
died at 58
- - -
murder occurance rate 3/5 for one player
