One Hour One Life Forums

It's so weird when people start pointing out lineages, any place has good, bad and dumb players, sometimes more or less of one of the three. It's not the family, it's the players, and the players are everywhere, in every family. No lineage/family deserves to die. They all had their fair share of goods and bads. It's all us, in the end. It's like trying to insult a mirror.

When your local berry farmer took a shroom before starting farming.

Oof. Yeah.
My browser deleted my carefully construct message so I'm just gonna summarize it;
- at this point I wish I could spawn so far away from people that no outsider could make it to my town - this way I only have to deal with occasional griefers inside my family, where I can curse them and have equal fights with equal weaponry
- sadly I have no idea how close people are to me when I am born, so even if I do run to some direction to start anew, I cannot tell if there is a city in a walkable distance anyways
- I just wish swords would behave like any weapon in the game, being deadly to anything you point it at - as long as they don't hurt your family even if you try to, they are considered magical to me
- I wish I could curse any killer, because it is most likely from another family
- I wish there was a way to stun or disarm people peacefully, something even children could use, so it wouldn't be so one-sided when a fight ensues
- I wish there was a way to recycle swords
- I wish there was a sheath for swords as they are annoying on the backpack
- property gates and fences are basically just momentary spots to stand around in, they won't save you; you're just trapped there
- that said, people seem to hate property fences and attack places because they exist in the area - as they cause hoarding and cause annoying blockages
- I wish that outsiders wouldn't always be a threat; any lineage can get griefers, swords just make it easier for them to go and mindlessly attack some family, as they get extra killing power with a sword there (and no curses for their actions)
- killing with swords causes mindless conflict, which usually ends in everybody dying in the end, so nobody usually benefits from it
- war sword did not make our family more important, it just made foreigners impossible to have around (because griefers can be born on any side, and they don't care who they get to kill, as long as they get to kill, especially with extra powers granted by some specialized weapon; so war swords they are, with the whole 'being safe from curses' bonus...)

That's all for now folks.

I wouldn't hate swords so much if they were like any other weapon in the game. But nooo, they just have to be the "ez genocide tool" granted by Jason...

My first sword death happened just recently, as Veronica Good. There I was, snaring rabbits, enjoying life, when a raid-- no, genocide party from Thunder family ran in and started stabbing. They weren't even on my tile or next to me for the hit to connect. Got stabbed twice as I tried to dodge; there is NO dodge. I managed to warn others before the two stabs cut my 14 year old life short. Out of four sisters, three of us died to their swords. My mom's last words break my heart, "I sorry daughters". I wanted to live there, I wanted to give my mom a good Fitness score, and have a relaxing life of simple things. I want no participation in this random genocide, to humor THEM. I wanted to humor myself, and ending up being a tool in their fun makes me seethe.

Then, I got born to Thunder family - the same family where the genocide party was from. As expected, I was surrounded by normal nice players. The genocide party was there somewhere, stabbing my old family. I raised my children, farmed tons of milkweed and started a great fence pen. And, of course, cursed one of the genocide party people whose name I remembered. But what use was that, there were six of them, (some carrying food, some carrying med tools in a cart) and my Good family can't even curse their killers, and the killers of their daughters.

I was glad to see Good family survive, though. I don't know what went down, but that genocide party made me so disappointed. It's just random genocide, "for fun". Some get their kicks from shift clicking a person without a weapon. A person who cannot dodge. An outnumbered teenager trapping rabbits alone. That's so cowardly.

Now, as Graceann Radish, my last daughter, Mega Radish, was born, wanting war. I told her war sucks in OHOL (not even war, just genocide with people calling it war for roleplay), shift clicking and sword juggle makes it stupid and easy. I told her we have no swords, it was an Eve camp. "It's okay", she said, and I left her, hoping she could still starve alone. But she survived, and went to recruit people to go with her.
Made me smile wide when I saw she got killed by mosquitos.

Ah, I was Gen 18 in that lineage (Holy). That's the generation when we got diesel engine running.

What a bitter end, but the family did get far, over fifty generations. The last woman's last words were "forty minutes of irl life", ouch. It's no fun. I can feel the sting... But it doesn't give her any rights to start killing, even if everything is doomed. And little did she know, another family would arrive to repopulate soon after... Ziv family lived there for 41 generations.
Never thought about baby juggling to get yum up faster.

Anyways, in my opinion, SID girls should end the lineage. It just says that there are no more people willing to keep it going. Although, it'd be ideal if willing people had a chance to save the place, there must be some online at some point. In the end, I'd suggest that last women and men had a chance to get back to the city, to make up for the bitter end. So if they really, reeeally want to try again with the place, they could. And if they kept trying, someone would always find their way to them, and help them out.

Nice! Here is a picture after some of them got tamed. We were watching the hypno horses run around.

8 hours feels fast in OHOL. Unless you use coordinates to save certain places from wipes. I'd give a bit more time for players to find their spots if they'd like to. Maybe 24 hours. I don't really care for realism when it comes to map wipes and ruins.
I'd have loved to rebuild the place, I know how I would've redesigned the place (certainly no "town-center smithy" ).
Sadly I only managed to show the place to my grandson. I'd have brought the whole family in there but I got too old, and food was too scarce.

Yeah, beans, they just stick onto you. And nice, this place was low on horses a lot. Probably because of the tiny sheep pen and lack of rope most of the time. I brought in the first two horses, then in another life I tamed a few that were left in the tiny jungle patch.

Thanks wondible! Can you confirm the birth coordinates of Elisa Mango?

I think the route should look like this, roughly:

Hah, well, at least those were the things that lasted in the end.

It wasn’t seen in 8h so nature reclaimed it. Only walls and roads are left, as those survive the map culling.

The young days of the city;


Here the diesel pump ran for the first time.

I'm always super thankful for wet nurses. I tend to be making tech or saving towns so if anyone takes care of my kid so we can have less people around the fire, that'll make us develop faster.

Guys, I will surely take care of your kids. The yum foods we produce to each other pays it back anyways, if you really only look at the yum and cost of breastfeeding...
I won't demand you to tell me what you are doing, and why you're not taking care of your kid. If your kid has done nothing bad, they'll get my help like any other. A bonus of Fitness won't stop me from caring for the next generation.

Wohoo! (aw, couldn't link a fun Homer Simpson GIF to the post)

Oof, rip. I was Sada Stella from Generation 5. I hunted like 5 wolves, 3 boars, 3 seals and 10 turkeys. And yet, the lineage ends to a wolf.
Stella family was always so low on women. When I was dying, we had only one girl;

It was really great to see the pelts made into clothing, with kids running around with wolf hats and seal skin coats.

Did my turkeys at least get eaten and made into broth?
