These are some pretty good ideas. Dev teleport would be mighty handy.

after 8hours they hatch, after 12 they want to eat but they can miss 1 , after 16 they die


if you cant log in somewhere between 8 and 16hours after putting the eggs on the table you shouldnt even do silk then cause there already is a very reasonable timeframe to do it, and no a awkward one like you try and make it out to me

I try to put them on the tables in the morning, like right now, and put them in the cupboards by night. After that, 16 more hours for them to eat all the leaves is about 10 am. I'll have most or all of the day tomorrow to unravel them. The timing only seemed daunting when I hadn't done it before. The only unwieldy part of it is gathering the leaves, but you can have those ready before you even put the eggs on the tables.
Come back two hours earlier.

I agree :lol:

But seriously though, just put 12 silkworms in a cupboard, fill it up with leaves and leave them there. Easy tending.

The time period is just perfect. You put them before going to sleep or an hour before, you wake up 8 hours later (average sleep time) and you come back to find your worms, ready to be transfered.

No response needed here, this below response I said earlier pretty much dismisses everything you had to say in your rant(In attempt to impress your buddies?) and I said it way before you said anything.
In fact, I wouldn't mind if it was 10 or even 12 hours long as it would be a more feasible time-ratio to actually have the people be able to get on and deal with it.

oh well, there is my problem. I was under the assumption that after 8 hours you had about 1 hour or so to deal with the eggs before they all died. Didn't realize we had the given time gap. Makes more sense that way. Thanks for the information and one of the few actual real responses to the discussion.

Yeah, I wasn't informed properly enough to realize they could miss a feeding and that it's four hours, not 1-2.

Haha yes, this would be ideal if you had no work/school/other things that you had to attend to(Or woke up extra early to get on Haven..? XD.) & played it on a daily basis.
