I really like the new archery system.  The new combat system is a POS, but I think they plan to make changes and improvements directly.

I'm considering coming back in the clan.  The game's come a long way since I played.

Öx, for anyone still around from original Bottleneck.  I built the house on the other side of the W ridge, S of the outer wheat field.  The one that hugged the ridgeline.

I left about the time that carts were added and the big wall of fire was built.  I have kind of kept up with the messageboards since then, but have not seen a compelling reason to resume playing.  Until now, with the mapwipe equalizing everyone.

I would like to be PM'ed the DF clan hearthsecret.

I do not promise to join.  However, I do promise to keep the hearthsecret secret.

Original Bottleneck was pretty Socialist.  Not only shared resources, but shared manufactured goods.  I find it interesting how capitalist the game is now.

Lots more to do.  In some ways, easier.  But in others, nor difficult, or at least more of a timesink.  Getting like a traditional for-pay MMO's grind.

I don't really understand quality levels yet.  I'll need to play around a while to grok them.

Is there an IRC?  Include that in the PM, plz plz please.

Yer, depending how bad this is will dictate how long I play I think.

If you'd want to get a feel for the game again before the whipe you could join a few of us at the newby camp, we decided to make new chars to see what noob life is like nowadays. :)

Just ask for the Hearth secret and it shall be Pmed :)

I PMed the Hearth Secret to Ox, Pathos, and Zchris...hopefully you guys didnt get a double PM from I and Talvara, but I figured it would be better to get it twice than to not get it at all.

Using that password will auto-kin you with my character, Toadkiller, so if you see me online, feel free to ask about anything.

Aye, this is indeed a nice spot for some n00b training.
It seems grinding teapots is the fastest way to go for LP, beats hunting at that.

Hey Martinuzz is Zamoni just someone you know from H&H? Just met him today and he said he knew you. He seems like a nice enough guy, just curious.

I read somewhere that if a cat falls more than 11 stories, it instinctively flares its legs out to increase air resistance. This slows it down enough to stick the landing with relatively minor injuries. In Dwarf Fortress, apparently, cats don't do that.

And perhaps an actual Bottleneck again. One large Bay12 town. That would be cool. One thing nobody remembers is that I selected the spot for the original Bottleneck. Crazy, huh?

I still remember. :)

And I'm glad I'm not the only one crazy enough to miss the dire-foxes. I though I was going crazy.

I remember the crazy foxes... And that stupid bear that chased me.  ::)

The Bottleneck forums are so lonely and the Bottlneck IRC is empty  :(. I might start playing H&H again.

So close to inkweed... so close! Apparently nil found one with 14 perception and 23 exploration, but needs more to be able to find them regularly. I just got 13 per and 24 exp (he also increased his exploration some), so hopefully tomorrow we can start some more mapping. Also, I think you multiply the two as the check to see if you can see things and if we get 25 exploration you only need 16 perception to get to the 400 difficulty (and rustroot). Much more manageable than 20 perception.
