An update on my aimless journey towards Bay12donia:  I've found a peculiar meeting of five rivers with a runestone marking "Clevelandian Cut".    This should serve as bearing enough for me in exploring everything connected to my base through water.

Perhaps someone has seen it before?

Synzig the map is huge. And by huge, I mean HUGE. You can travel 2 hours non-stop without even getting close to civilization.

[Synzig]

Okay..  I give up on that idea, then.

How do I go about finding you guys if I roll a new character?

[cib]

Go to the girl(or guy, I forgot) in the top, right click, and enter the secret I sent you.

I finally decided to try this out.. and I've been surprised at how fun it is.

Does anyone have any tips on finding plant fibre?  I know I need flax or hemp.. but I can't seem to find it growing anywhere.  Could someone possibly offer a screenshot of either plant?

Flax is a clump of blue flowers. If you use the hearth secret Errol set you can find where him and myself have a bunch of farms and things. Happy to spare you crops seeds and the like.

Alternatively if you look at http://www.maplib.net/map.php?id=6075 this map and see the abandoned cabin in the top area then you need to follow the river there further up the map, past the river junction until the river curves left and you see a stone road up. Carry your boat over the road to the next river and go right at the river junction just above it. You'll see our communal farms and things very quickly.

We have a mansion. Remembar that.

(Well, we would have if I could log on and finally harvest the wheat one last time.)

You can use spindly taproot for fibre, it's a herb found in forests.

[Errol]

Ant update. And a promise for a combat overhaul!

Now just get the server back up, you lazy slackers.

[DJ]

Yeah, how dare they sleep

On new years no less.

our little survivalist camp made some nice progress yesterday. We got a good selection of plants in our little garden by exploring far and wide. We found tea and hemp which was HUGE. Next up would be wheat, if we could find wheat we would have a lot of the required staples. Pumpkins would be great too, i like pumpkins.

We had an INSANE bear decide to walk into our camp and repeatedly maul us as we scrambled around planting hemp and putting up fences. That was pretty exciting actually. The whole survivalist feel of starting out in the sticks is great. It's not hard at all, but it is fun.

Apparently we have a neighbor not too far away, havent met them yet, but their palisades have been spotted.

Let's BUST HIM UP

So I've started out in this. I've begun the grind and have learned fishing (but don't have a fully equipped fishing pole). I spawned in some place called "Macomb" and I have no idea where on the world map that is. How would I go about joining my fellow Bay12 people?

[Chicken Launcher]

I have also just started. I set up a lovely camp with a cabin and some farms, and now I'm basically exploring the rivers with a boat. I have not seen anyone else. Where are you guys? Or a better question would be, where am I?

[Errol]

The easiest way would be drowning your char and then using the Sherlock guy in the character creation room to spawn near someone else. IE my hearth secret is VIVIT, so if you tell him VIVIT you'll spawn near me (and Shades)

Or you go to someone else, but we are fairly advanced (we have a mansion with a cellar, and these things are a pain in the rear end to build, and Shades gets hi-q stuff from god knows where)

There is no way telling where you are. You can travel to Brodgar, but you might not even have enough AGI for that. It's just you in the wilderness, baby, but you could try to match up your surroundings with the main grid map.
