Once I ran for like, 1 hour naked. Didn't find a single person. XDDD
Though I didn't played much (99.99% of the time alone), the little time that I played with someone (right before I lost connection to the Internet for a couple of months), me and a guy did this:

He made a wardrobe instead of a cupboard, so we dumped it by their gate. XDDD
Though they were nice, at least to me. They were also my neighbors.
When I got back a couple of months later, there was only the floor in my claim, and my neighbors were gone. D;
The forest turned into a grassland (it wasn't so bad though) and a village was build and died in those 2 or so months. Too bad I never got to meet the people from Chol.
Though they just had to build their village right next to me. But their idol went down soon as I came back, and I didn't got anymore the messages "Entering Chol" and "Leaving Chol" when walking on my not-so-big claim.
