Continue scouting, in search of stone.

Nap to regain strength. Then head out into the woods, using my shovel bit to try and find tuberous roots, like potatoes.

Continue gathering long grass. If I gather enough of it in a short amount of time, proceed to find some animals or other plants.

Woo! Buildity-build! Use logs as support pillars, burying them in the ground on one end. If possible, line holes with stones.

Provide usable stones by systematically murdering a few metric tons of rock.

Might as well chalk it up to Pathos.
As this point we might as well invoke interpretive dance and call it a day.

Tell the others about my findings, especially about the berries they should not eat, and wonder why the biologists in charge of the ecosystem in this biosphere would find it necessary to include poisonous plants.

Find some usable stones and start building a small house with them. Take any usable stones Cromwell mines and use them in building the house.

Provide usable stones by systematically murdering a few metric tons of rock.
6: The rocks seem to cower before you as you tear through them, excavating a huge hole into the side of a large boulder. Your pick finally breaks, and you sit panting by 30 stones, 5 chunks of iron ore, 7 chunks of copper, and 1 chunk of aluminum ore. You then somehow lug it all back to the center hut being built.

Find some usable stones and start building a small house with them. Take any usable stones Cromwell mines and use them in building the house.
5: You take some of these stones Cromwell mines, and start putting them together to make a small stone house. (You used 20 stones in building)

Tell the others about my findings, especially about the berries they should not eat, and wonder why the biologists in charge of the ecosystem in this biosphere would find it necessary to include poisonous plants.
4: You come up to the others, and inform them about these berries, and give them a lecture on how to always come to you before eating a berry. You then start wondering why poisonous berries were included in this ecosystem, but you remember that this ecosystem was designed to keep the animals alive until they reached the new earth, and that humans were never meant to be on this biosphere, and how normal animals could eat the berries freely.

Search the area around me for any usable stones
6: You manage to find a large chunk of rock that comes off easily, and you lug it over to the miner, who splits it into 10 stones with his pick, before turning back and mining further. You then lug these 10 stones to the resource pile.

Woo! Buildity-build! Use logs as support pillars, burying them in the ground on one end. If possible, line holes with stones.
2: You lazily carry a few logs around, and put 10 into the house, and you use the five stones to create a fireplace inside. You didn't start on the long grass part of the roof yet (10 logs used, 5 stone used)

Continue gathering long grass. If I gather enough of it in a short amount of time, proceed to find some animals or other plants.
6: You get a whole lot of long grass, managing to pick 50 stems of it in under a minute! However, the effort exhausts you, so you go deposit the resources, then lie down.

Nap to regain strength. Then head out into the woods, using my shovel bit to try and find tuberous roots, like potatoes.
5: You find a few leeks which you pull out, then you find a small patch of sweet potatoes. You keep said food on your person at the moment.

Begin cutting branches off trees.
4: With your elite carpenter skills, you position a branch perfectly, then snap it in half, creating a 2' long stick. You repeat this 2 more times, then put all 3 sticks in the center of this half-built large hut.

Continue scouting, in search of stone.
4: You find a few outcroppings of stone in another clearing in the forest, and you see a few seams of what appears to be a copper-like metal inside the stones.

((Could we get a map whenever someone finds/makes something of note?))

Return to camp, informing everyone else of the stone and copper deposits.

((Sooo... What made you think we're building houses? Not to say that we aren't or wouldn't but... That's kinda an assumption, don't you think? never mind, read through the thread. I have a bad habit of not reading other's actions :P I think we should use the large log cabin for a communal hut, and the smaller one for storage of materials/manufacturing. I got an idea for foodstuffs.))

return to the camp, and use my shovel and some of the remaining stones and logs to create a 10' deep by 12x6 foot long/wide respectively, cellar.

Houses is just a term I use to describe structures, these structures can be used for any task.
As for maps, I'll do it when someone asks me to, but not every turn :L

Could you do that map thing? I'd like to know where the copper and such is, relative to the main camp.
