Now a question regarding Decay:

Is decay random? I've had one drying frame go red 3 times, the others untouched, all on paved (stone) ground. One coffer which spent most of its time indoors, when taken outdoors and set on stone paved ground YESTERDAY went red today, the other three I have which have all been outside their entire existences are fine.

Is this normal?

You won't be saying that in a week or two when you realize how many abandoned homes there are. A 30 second boat ride south of my village literally bring you to the ghetto. There's abandoned claims everywhere with the occasional newb taking things and raiders patrolling. It reminds me of Detroit.

Well that may be more useful to know. Now I just have to figure out how to make the claim BIGGAR to encompass that area.

Actually, new question - considering a village claim: I saw in W3 that Sodom had a village claim at their true city area, but also a village claim at a mine I passed once -- How does that work? Can you build a statue outside the existing village claim and have it claim an area, but have that area still be part of the original village? Or can a particular player be part of two villages?

You can build flags/statues from your village to the desired destination, and then destroy the inbetween flags/statues to effectively create an island of your village authority.

Anyone know how teleporting calculations work for underground villages to above ground?

Is fighting on boats any useful? Some Russian kid chased me today for like one hour and then decided to just give up. Was pretty much a waste of time but had he ever a realistic chance to kill me? Didn't look that way to me but I'm a newbie, so I wouldn't know.
