Back on Plymouth, it took me over a year before I joined the Tribe. Man, was I dumb.

I was paying like 20,000s every 2 weeks or something. Way too much.


Rem once figured out my monthly cost of 4 vendor stalls, a p-claim, the nyatlathotep bell, and arcadia tax, came out near 10k a month, and that was enough to keep me in Boston 90% of the time trying to get my hands on cheap goods and lining up buyers for stuff. If I had to do it with pelters and cotton I wouldn't have made it

Also, I'm dying to know, who's skeleton was in the lean to at the SW section of Riverton, right by the mountains? It won my contest of "strangest **** I ever found in a lean to"

I thought about buying a second stall but luckily I never did. I made maybe 5000s every 2 weeks on the stall so I did it mostly with cotton. At one point I was spamming 12x12 (144) fields of cotton at Roda Skogen every 3 days and another 80 at Mirkwood. Way too much cotton for cash.

I believe that skeleton was Dreth's alt from Redwood Manor. I think he had Binks kill it for him while he was taking out the little base there. If it wasn't his then I know one of the germans lost a lumberjack alt early on at Riverton.

After I took over the bell there only 2 Germans still playing and only on weekends. That whole neighborhood was super friendly and populated. Riverton had 6 people in it at one point, Memory Raines and her friend from Cali lived just up the river, there were 2 solo Russian guys with little claims and a Portuguese guy with a big claim and another little claim from some other European guy plus a couple others I never met. There was maybe 20 people all within 5-10 minutes of each other and they were all friendly. It was the most fun I ever had on Salem. You'd be walking out in the woods and see your neighbors all the time. They all quit at the same time right after the Candy Gang started wiping little bases and killing random people.

It was quite a thrill negotiating for my life after trapping myself on the Riverton claim.

The town was OOA at one point, so I started looting. Like a noob, I had placed a gate construction sign that blocked the only escape route. Just as I was about to build the gate and leave the claim Authority was restored, leaving me trapped in Riverton. The guys were kind enough to let me leave, but they could have killed me very easily and with good cause.

Good times!

Yep, that was me. I think both you and Icon hit it before I plugged the meter on the townbell again for the Germans. Icon got out before I put it down but you got stuck. Neither one of you ever figured out that that mayor alt was mine. The Chief also never figured it out when he put the town in the fighting game thingy he had.

It was a stupid idea. He chose 2 of Embie's towns for it as well. The tribe always forgets that only like 1 in 10 players in the game actually read the forums.

It should have been more like fight club with the winner combat alt killing the loser and the tribe giving them a big prize. It's idiotic to make it non-voluntary for random cities who they know nobody in.

I was a member of Winterfell at the time, and the threat of the Gladiator Game freaked me out. I just didn't have the humors to participate. Also, I had left Salem the week before the announcement and felt like I had had abandoned my responsibilities to the town. Overall, it was the most exciting time in Salem for me but also my worst performance as a member of Winterfell. Essentially, it reminded me what a **** player I am in Salem despite my enthusiasm for the game and my effort to master the mechanics.

I was in there for 2 months, finaly logged in and waited around because I thought it was abandoned again, got KO'd, returned for some reason that I attribute to THC, and got KO'd out again, lol.. Spent the rest of my time on Roanoke coming by and occasionaly breaking in. After a few times trying to casualy talk to the person I memo'd there and saw in Boston, I could tell it was someone that knew that "username" was me on bearbait. I got suspicious about it when I realized someone threw a bell down and moved in noobs, clayets M.O. But I could never prove it, lol. But yeah I originaly broke in there, got a few loads of inventory and my internet cut off for the weekend >.< the score was basicly 5 pieces of 80%+ humus, few loads of 20-45% humus, and a weird collection of cash shop clothes, slottables, and gluttony food. Not my best haul, but I was planing to move alts in :lol:

my biggest regret was not moving into dulacc after I crashed it, that place had about 75 tiered fields, every building available in game, and a near complete plank fence. Not to mention its location, I never once met anyone that had heard of it

We had dulacc mapped.

Yeah I had no way of getting you out of Riverton after you got in without leaving a scent, so I just walled you in and hoped for a bear to KO you eventually. :lol: ¦] :lol:

It's ok I would never have allowed any member of Winterfell to genuinely participate in a tribe related activity anyway, despite my lies to peepookaka. You were always a fantastic town member and i loved living with you. You're not at all a **** player, have a little more faith in yourself. I remember that Riverton event, was really funny.
