The Great Famine

[Jalpha]

Conquering the server is an achievement, and why shouldn't someone receive benefits for such a feat? The purity update was to stop EVERYONE from obtaining easy monster characters, but that makes the update very biased against the Tribe. The Great Spirit is nothing but fair, and it is fact that true fairness would be giving the Tribe benefits in order to maintain the advantage it already has.

The tribes poor management of their self acclaimed realm is why you feel you have received no benefits. You have naught but yourselves to blame.

Your distress plucks at the harpstrings of my heart. I find the sound pleasing to my soul.

Don't eat all your 40% crops at once now. How will you break in and steal pure bins and trees without them. I doubt you have amongst your number enough determination to actually work for sustainable purity.

"Great Spirit, Keeper of Tears, Tamer of Treaties, We come to you to ask your forgiveness for we have sinned.
For each time we placed our items in a Boston Barrel after already receiving silver and thus robbing you tears
We are Sorry.
For each time we allowed the Moderators to hinnom juicy drama before it blessed your sacred eyes without overthrowing the abuse.
We are Sorry.
For each and every time we clicked the "Send Home" button
We are Sorry.

Great Spirit, Duke of Drama, Lover of Loftar, we know you are angry and we accept that it is our fault. Just as the cricket knows not when he jumps in front of pathing we know not when our humble mortal actions interfere with the path we know you must walk for our salvation. We ask not for the nice things that we know in our hearts we should have never had, no, We only ask of the Great Spirit to return a lesser-nice thing.

Great Spirit, Creator of both the Gourd and the Headdress, we pray to you...
We pray for purity on nails so that our bins may become pure.
We pray for purity on Wells so that pure water may grace your trees.
We pray for meaningful alchemy and a clear and logical path to Purity.
most importantly Great Spirit, We pray for a system that does not suck."

In The Great Spirits name we pray...

AMEN

Purity affects everyone. To say you want some improvements to purity isn't saying you support the tribe and it isn't saying purity should go back to how it was before. I have a feeling a lot of us would like to see some more purity updates before we see anything else.

That's a really good call and you made me lol.

Just thought everyone should know.

On plymouth
The tribe will be the only set of players to achieve any sort of decent purity again.

1 simple fact: if you are against them your base will be found. Your base will be raided. Purity is now tied to infrastructure, as such it is FAR easier to destroy a faction's powerbase, specially if you already have 400 humour toons running around.

These purity changes have been a lose/lose. Advanced characters lose because it is pretty damn hard to feed a 400 humour toon not to mention no real means of compensating for bile loss, and the newer players because qf the purity grind is just to long/random/incomplete/unstable (lol blew up so much money already + mats I had to spend hours foraging) to ever be able to get anywhere and on top of that if you do manage to get somewhere you can probably expect to be getting raided sometime soon.

Gunna love to see how ***** it is going to be when they fully rebalance defenses for the new purity model.

I do have faith that they will fix the current situation
Or at least give us a little more insight as to what we are sposed to do
Snälla?

The thread was never derailed, it was all on-topic with slight deviations to accommodation the conversation. I am disappointed that you selectively deleted. I believe it is up to the OP to help decide what was or was not intended.

What happened to all those noobies you guys got living on the reservation? Did they quit farming for you? The taskmaster needs to crack the whip harder.

The tribe are paying for killing the free trade in Plymouth.. we may all hope they starve or at least pause the subjugation of the innocent settlers looking to scrape a meager living from the bare soil.

More pilgrims > more higher purity food on market (if you have left any stalls free)

As for purity being in infrastructure.. put higher purity seeds, humus and cuttings in an alt vault for recovering/relocating after a raid - Always have a fall back.

I recently learned that Khaz has been gorging on all the donated food, leaving the Chief to starve in despair.

The only option left to me was to appeal to The Great Spirit himself.
