As we approach to the Expeditions more and more of our progress will roll out live on Providence. Keep in mind though you guys are able to get the skills but you won't be able to do anything with them until the animals come back from the expeditions.

I could steal the part about afk-ing from the OP partly :) As for the grammar, I am no native speaker, so it's sometimes hard to catch the mistakes...

As you brave the harsh reality of the new world, you will become slightly insane over time. Some incidents and actions also increase your insanity. You have aquired enough insanity to raise your madness to the first level. On higher madness levels you will hear voices frequently and have an increased chance to experience various psychic episodes up to the point where the madness becomes so overwhelming that you decide to set an end to your life. To prevent madness from increasing, try to exercise things that keep you sane on a regular basis and sleep in a bed instead of laying down on the cold ground. If you wish to get rid of your madness, you need stronger remedies, like smoking tobacco or cuddling your teddy bear while sleeping in your bed.


anybody is invited to make other suggestions or improve this one...

I've already dropped your description into the help box. It will be live once the artists draw me a pretty little icon for it.

oh a serious note, sleeping 8h with the bear reduces insanity by 1, what if we sleep 16h?

Perhaps I should put a "Groggy" debuff from oversleeping?

Honestly who goes 16h without playing Salem? Surely they must be punished. ¦]
