I trapped myself like a moron

Postby Enti » Tue Sep 06, 2011 6:43 pm

Hello forums. Me again. The same guy who got assaulted the other day.

For the short version, I locked myself in my own pali at (-6,-7) and would like someone to tear down either my wall or my house.

For the long version, it all started yesterday. After the assault, I doubled my efforts to get this wall done. I finished up the wall, and started doing things while the wall finished setting. I gathered up a ton of trees and paved the path I planned to go on, which ended up being an epic phail. My plan involved going around the flow of the river, simply do to the fact I was to close to it, which is an easy mistake. The even stupider mistake was planning on having several posts turn next to each other, meaning two corner posts would have to be made next to each other in order to get the plan. Since I couldn't do that, I went in the opposite direction, only finding out that I had a similar problem. Right in front of my house. For some reason, I decided that I didn't need a lot of room in front of my house and that it would be easier just to build a straight wall in front of my house, so I did that instead. When I got to my door, I realized that I may not be able to get in or leave my house, where my hearth is located. So I went to my hearth fire, then exited and decided "Well, if I could exit the building that must mean I have enough room to leave it properly" and finished building that damned wall. In front of my door. Then, after my attempts to exit where all in vain, knowing I could not destroy either of the soak 25 objects, I did the logical thing and went to sleep. While in bed, I came to the conclusion that this was a really shitty place to live and that I was going to move tomorrow to some place. So when I got on this morning, I destaked my claim and tried to get threw the little bit of room it looked like I had. After waiting patiently for any of my kin to get on, mainly waiting for my neighbors who I just figured out I had, to get on and singing variations of "Suspicious minds" (I'm caught in a trap....I can't walk out....), I decided that the forums are a good place to find good people who like to break stuff. Since I am leaving my village, just take any thing you want from it as a reward, but it doesn't have anything useful. Just for fun, I will make a screenshot after lunch.

Why not just break your hearth and wilderness spawn?

I took this suggestion into account and attacked my fire with my low quality axe. After going threw several bars of stamina with no notifiable effect, as well as looking in my cupboard only to find raw meat, I quickly decided that by the time I was able to do any damage whatsoever I would have starved.

awwww

What ever happened to newbs immunity to the laws of time and space? Those are sacred and must be granted to me.

I don't seem to have one. Image

This is hilarious.


Ill be sure to take solace in that as I chew on chicken bones while staring down the wall to see who lives longer.

I can v-port you out if needed.


Thanks. I'm not sure what that is to be honest, but it sounds helpful. How can I help?

And here is the screenshot I promised.

Yep, (-6,-7). I usually keep my map zoomed out, but it seemed kind of pointless when staying inside...

And if the formulas I got are correct, I can't break the hearth fire. From what I can tell of the wiki, the destroy power is calculated by the √strength + tool. My strength is 14, √14=3.74165739. 3.74165739 + 1 (Axe)= 4.74165739. The Hf has a soak of five, so you have to do over that to be able to damage it...
