Why does it have to be 6 fires wide? :S

6? I thought I read 7. Maybe they changed the plan and I didn't notice, or maybe I misread.

The original planned width was nine. We've been building it as six so far. We'll probably keep it as six. I like six.

Why? Because it is awesome. It would take two hours to burn through.

I would assume they're leaving an entrance... Laketown started off with a drying rack wall, we've since moved to a fire fence, which is superior in that it can be moved. We have entrance and exits though

Plenty of entrances, actually. Trade will still go on as usual I assume, we might even build a trade depot outside of the wall.

You guys looking for another?

Recently, someone cut down the last apple tree outside of my little home near the center so I am forced to move or starve to death. . . I BURN through food. I am surprised my guy is not as fat as a cow and I am concerned about the state of my stool after my diet has converted almost solely to apples.

So if you have room for one more, just give me the go ahead.

What kind of player are you looking for? Do you need a baker? Miner? Tree planter? Leather worker? Sausage maker?

Everyone who is willing to work hard is welcome to Bottleneck. We can always use more harvesters/bakers in particular.

Anyway, if you settle down here, try to keep your home at least six tiles away from any road, because they may need expansion in the future. Also, when you cut down trees for your cabin, only cut down mature ones and try to plant at least one new tree for each tree you cut down.

I'm unable to play right now due to lag, but someone else should be willing to show you around town. Just ask people, most of them are nice.
