So I decides to take me the world map, start in a random place, and find my own way to my friends. Luckly I know where they are in relation to the world map, even if they aren't on it, so bonus there.
I start with some random boating, trying to find places in the first supergrid I come to. Ah, the first compleate palaside and village Deadwood? Near Sadom their thread says? Everything is near Sadom, it is the center of the world! So I fill my boat full of sand, and start walking north to the next supergrid... maybe I'll take a cart next time. I cross deserts, leave a fully set table in the middle of nowhere when I take lunch, a heart shapped ring of fires to mark my campsite. Next is Midgard, and I can thus tell I am near water. Onwards to Ocello Territory... and crash.
The world is just so big, and us so small. I hate to think of teleporting, when there is just so MUCH that you miss. I'll deffenetly be considering becoming a wagon gypsy, even if I ever find my way to the map.
