well for that I believe I would actually have to pay actual money, but I could plunk down a minimal amount of cash so that I may once again become the Duchess of Dogpit.

You should have seen Hacienda Dogpit. It was a marvel.

Hello, it's been a long time since I was carving out tunnel networks for Bearback Mountain. My username is JaurXe because my old account is stuck in the Chaos server and I can't wait to wrestle some pigs and stuff.

Edit: Wait, it's over. Oops. Until next time!

Not yet since I wasn't sure if anyone would care, but I'll scope out a nice patch of land tonight. tbqh I can't remember where I am on Xanadu...probably on a boat that has decayed away sitting on the coast (pubbietopia). Do you prefer to be near pubbies or far from pubbies?

I might be interested if you get a village up. I already fell off a cliff and lost all my old stuff, so...

We're currently heading back to our village, Dogpit. Send a pm on Xanadu to Summerrose, Duchess of Dogpit, or Hempfire, Vicar of Dogpit, to get in on the fun times. Fun is subjective. This is Wurm. You knew what you were getting into. If anyone else actually gets on, we'll get in mumble.

EDIT: We're in the mumble outlined in the wiki presently.

EDIT EDIT: Back at Hacienda Dogpit, the structure still stands and all our neighbors' shitshacks have rotted away so there's plenty of room for more shitshacks! Goons, come on down!

Here's an old picture I took of Casa Dogpit. I planned it out to look like a Spanish villa


Casa Dogpit is in the middle of the northeast quadrant of Xanadu - it's a remote area that doesn't have many pubbies or ruins to loot but it's a safe place for everyone to learn the game and there's lots of mostly unspoiled areas to build. Eventually I'd like to lead an expedition over to the older goontowns and see how they're doing on the west side of the server where there's also more pubbies to mess with. I'll get back on the steam group if anyone needs an invite to the homestead, also you can try sending a private message to Hempfire or Summerrose

It is "a art", so to speak.

1. a stunning number of them build poo poo off deeds
2. A lot of them get mad if you ruin the environment that is actually "public land" (making deserts, chopping down trees)

Fun fact about making deserts - if you get a patch of sand big enough, it'll become a desert/shoreline biome and spawn crocs.

Oh yeah, and it's fuckin hard to get rid of a statue once it's put down, so we put those on pubbie deeds too. Especially if they're dumb enough to not lock the front door of their house (rather common).

We also found a bunch of abandoned gear on an unfinished road near our deed. Lots of half-assed projects to rob!

EDIT: Also, there's always off-deed mine doors to bash in.

Oh nice. I've been wandering around sort of aimlessly looking for Dogpit and found a bunch of stuff that wasn't bolted down.

I figured if somebody left it lying around there was probably some protection in place.



Not that I really know what to do with it at this point.

There was a cart in the middle of a big hole that looked like I could have taken it.

I'm Tompowers. According to some sign I'm heading towards some kind of a pirate cove city (something like that) at E21 and I'll call it a night.

Edit: Found the desert of a million hostile enemies, decided to take a shortcut to some "newbie academy" because I thought I could see some smoke from it in the near distance. It was a fire spider. So I'm not entirely sure where I'm at but I managed to bank my money somewhere. :shrug:

He's slowly gone insane from a combination of bad gameplay and the exertion of herding goons. The asylum still lets him play during free time though.

We did have a new guy start a couple days ago, he's busily burning himself out making a shack in the quarantine zone down the mountain. I can try to get you added to the village if you want to join him in his quest to build a ghetto and then quit.

No because he made a game geared for PvE that he keeps insisting is optimized for PvP and he's also a crazy man with crazy priorities.

I agree partly because I think Wurm is best the way it is, but do private servers typically have weird spergy drama? First time I've heard someone against private servers.

If we're talking about servers not run officially,
They ALWAYS have weird spergy drama, in addition to favouritism, admin abuse, ddosing people, ddosing competitors/other private servers, half of them being atached to malware/keyloggers to steal official server logins, [........],

Well one obvious side effect of this "host your own server" thing is that it'll be harder to annoy people if that's what you're after. You'll either just get banned by the server owner or the annoyed people will find a different server or start their own private server..
