Love the leanto. Feels like I'm camping. Though putting the bed into the leanto and sleeping doesn't shut the client down like sleeping in a straw bed does.

Oh wai... That's with the extended client, so may not be an issue.

Also wondering what the point of the Straw Bed is now?

I really like the lean-to as well. Gives newbies a place to call home right off the bat, as well as some limited protected storage and a degree of safety from theft when offline. Looks cool too. I am curious,tho, about its vulnerability to decay...I killed mine in one hit, and my character is not a terribly strong guy.

scents are little protection for a newbie with no skills or stats to even see scents, they had friends to seek a thief for them.

I am assuming that the fact that it leaves scents means that you need black arts to take stuff. That makes it a bit harder to get, at least. Obviously serious players will have no problems, but they probably wont be scouring the countryside in an attempt to steal q10 bone saws. Or at least I hope not.

We peaked at 98 from that I saw. It might even have gone higher. We have never had this many users outside of a recruitment drive before. Pretty cool. We're still working on combat as our main thing. We got some work done on archery tonight.

Fuck. I'll throw in a little preview.

^^^^^^^^ Pure, undiluted, awesome. ^^^^^^^^

And we switched the servers tonight. That's nice. The old hard drive was showing symptoms of disease.


I may or may not have been doing a little free advertising for H&H! 8-)
