That's not how hearthport works. You can only go to other people if you start a new character.

I think thats exactly what Solifuge is suggesting, actually.
We all start on chars that we will treat as alts, then, when someone finds the best place, we all start our mains and hearthsecret to the place.

or maybe throw them into the large hadron collider to atom-smash them instead.
Not to mention to throw all available animals into tiny pits.

That'll just put us behind in the race to get a mine. You want to raise perception and exploration as fast as humanly possible, and giving everyone else a couple of days head start is not the way to do it.

I would think there will plenty of mines to go around, if the map is big enough.  I mean, I see your point, but I don't think that a couple of days is going to mean we can't have a mine.

But, we could divide up the duties and have some people searching for a place to live and some people working on mines.

Well, I am in going to be in when it restarts. We should probably have people go in groups of 2 ish so if we find a good spot and someone dies before they can put a hearth fire up, we aren't fucked finding it again.

True, but you start with a pair of shoes that last a loooong time. Certainly long enough to get an axe and carpentry to make your own shoes.

I myself am ready to rock the SOCKS off this new map, even if it is built using the same generator.
I plan to build in at least some isolation, but I'll aid the Great Nation of the Dwarves whenever I hear the call.

Well, can I design a town in the new world, or at least try? This has been my ambition since the last one, and I never got the chance to (came close with Northplowed, but Niltrias (I think it was him) had a much better design).

Actually, I have an idea, thought I would toss it out and see if anyone is interested...
I havent played as a newbie for months, and the game has changed quite a bit since then.  Im going to wilderness spawn a new character on this map, and fiddle around so I have a solid strategy for kicking off after the character wipe.  If anyone wants to do a trial run with me, PM me and Ill send you the Hsecret.
