Day 7, aye
Well, I survived that far. I wonder if I should be proud of it, though I guess it could be predicted - after all i'm not THAT new here. I remember the World Two and i remember this lovely Bitardsk ghetto and Stalingrad. I didn't move to Stalingrad since i had some harsh talk with the founding fathers and instead i just decided to move South East, to join a friend of mine - in some calm place. Bitardsk was a place when I came here at first. It was the second wave of emigrants and I claimed the land in around 60 steps from the lake, and I though that i'm incredibly unlucky. The first wavers were grouped together and acted very well - they were hunting and doing stuff like that and for me it was near impossible to hunt - I couldnt get the very process.
In around a week the news about the place started to broadcast further, and a new waves of emigrants was about to move in. ((A bit ooc now...everyone was pretty shocked and the game was lagging badly due to a weirdly big amount of newcomers. That's when the old players...were they called hunnes? I cannot say for sure. These guys decided to raid the Russian land.)) It was pretty clear that our location was revealed and that we should move. Soon enough people organised and move to a new place - Stalingrad. THough everyone understood that newcomers, who started to spawn in a really big amounts, that these guys sooner or later would bring death to this land.
Bitardsk was something pretty important for me. I build a small road by my house, so the people could pull the carts by that road to the edge of the forest. To the timber harvesting site. Then I built a public well nearby and i head some crazy water quality, something around q60 or maybe even q90. There was absolutely no-body around, nobody but Russians and several local clans already declared that they are pretty much unsatisfied with what was happening and that they would bring their vengeance soon. In a couple of days the spawning process became completely uncontrolable. People moved to Stalingrad, and I asked some guy if I could move with them, and received the answer, something like: "Well...we have a limited amount of available space there...are you sure you want to move in?" I answered, "No" Then everyone FLED. I helped some people to put theit stuff into the boats, to gather the crops last time. I was said goodbye and some guy from a small mansion whom I was helping said goodbye to me at last and handed me the keys. I said goodbye too and left by the lake, feeling alone.
Then there were move noobs there. I talked to them and showed them some basics, I remember explaining them some stuff. The road around my house was filled with hearth fires now and newcomers were everywhere...and it was when I arranged my own flight. I decided to move to South East to a small international mansion. The travel took for around 9 hours (and we haven't got any maps back then) and I was just staying online during all these 9 hours, without any pauses....crazy experience. There I accidentally met another Bitardsk, organised a bit later by a different group. It was just as populated as my previous place. In my further journey I saw several lonely houses but none of them were actually inhabited. Then I found that old town with some crazy q100+ grapes outside of the gates and that mansion I was looking for. I settled here, and then, in several days, i heard terrible news - the Bitardsk were ruined, the ghetto center was covered with dead bodies, etc. In a couple of days Stalingrad was destroyed too, though. I felt being..well, a survivor? I leaved in that hamlet and had a calm life, having fun farming and exploring. ((And then the Doom Day was declared and i gave up playing))
Now I'm kinda back and have a weird dream of backstabbing Burghingham for destroying the Bitardsk Village. I doubt I would ever be able to do so...but jeez, I would be so happy to try!
Three days ago it was a Leather day. Then i travelled South-West and found that lake. Cute place. Then I claimed a small spot there and thinking about what would I do next. I'm definitely is not about to settle down completely, at least not by my current claim. Therefore I dont need to build and houses and barns I guess.There's a big (really big) populated place, and I might examine if before... looking around. Or I could keep trying contacting the locals. I feel a bit curious about Koreans and the way they manage to survive in a "Western" place. Well, we will see.
