One Hour One Life Forums

what if we could dig up dirt (like the way we would dig a pit), line it with stones, and then fill it with water? (lets say two buckets for difficulty). this would solve the complains ppl have about not being able to build wells wherever they want while keeping it balanced

with the 3 hour ban ppl feel the need to raise as many (or at least as many female) babies as possible, just in case they will all die and u will not get anymore babies. if there was a way to control pregnancy these baby booms would not occur while still keeping the benefits of the lineage ban. as it is now, second or third daughters of a line just pop out and keep all the babies, leading to mass starvation. please jason, consider birth control

my problem: last 9324790370375 lives as eve/eves only living daughter has led up to all of my kids dying at ages 4-11 and me alone at my farm filled with carrots with no kids at 60

what i do already:
- i tour around the children that seem most helpful and intelligent
- i tell the kids where food is ("go left for food!")
- i warn kids of dangers ("theres a snake to the right. watch out!")
- make most kids baskets and put at least one food in it
- tell the newbs how to do simple things like make sharp stone
- ask if they are good or not before leaving them

why are you all dying? how can i make this childhood experience more survivable for you? what do YOU want from your eve mom as a baby?

theres a lot of threads in this forum about how ohol sucks now b/c of this and that change and that all the newbs suck and they should read all the manuals before proceeding etc etc so this is to get a lil break from that negativity.

heres a list of what makes ohol fun for me:

-roleplay. i love raising children and pouring all my heart and resources into them to be shot later (i mean it! i think being murdered is funny) it feels like a collaborative effort in writing a short backstory for our "characters". i love being adopted by my aunt and calling her mom instead. or helping out my abandoned brothers and building a bond with them. or marrying a dude cos he had one shoe on and i had the other

-positive reinforcement. dying surrounded by your children who all say "ily" is THE BEST. i always tell my kids ily and when it pays off its really the greatest feeling. this is basically my #1 motivation in playing this game. i love helping people out and seeing my civ grow is very fulfilling

-helping new players. i love being able to teach someone new the ropes. whenever i see a new player succeed (even with something small like making a rope or sharp rock) it makes me very happy. helping them live to old age is also a great feeling

feel free to add on with what makes you keep returning to ohol

i died seconds ago n looked up my family tree. the furthest we got in our secluded lil camp was three generations from eve. but somehow a 10th generation shows up in the tree. shes a baby from the 10th generation of the boots family from 10 days ago and we are listed as "distant relatives" but we dont even share a last name. its weird
