Amus

I'm abstaining from voting as I made one of the suggestions, however in the event of a tie, the builder can cast my intention for the name I suggested.

As a new player of course my first question is how do I make some cash so I can buy things from traders that I need... okay kinda need. It took about two hours before I stumbled, in conversation over the global chat, that I could scoop up a corpse off the side of the road and sell it to a token or trader for toppins. It was only after a significant amount of research that I understood that the only reason I was getting 11i for the corpse was because all corpses are QL 100 (unless they've been 'seasoned' for a while) this struck me as something rather clever. I came to Wurm because I wanted to 'see the sites' as it were and living the life of a vagabond, I'd be perfectly happy to roundup all those spider and cave-bug bodies that seem to accumulate around settlements in the wake of the ever vigilant spirit-guards or whatnot, but lo and behold, lifting a butchered and otherwise 'useless' corpse from deeded ground that you did not put there yourself is still considered stealing, so I tend to pass by many settlements with dead bears and spiders about and the best I can do is bury them for the sake of digging skill.. and frankly who wants a town with a whole bunch of rotting corpses lying about. What I'm getting at is: suppose there was an option that could be selected to permit any passerby, weather citizen of the township or not, to collect and dispose of butchered corpses. Would that not be a useful option? See a long dead wolf on the side of the road, pick it up and drop it off at the token for a token reward. It would certainly help clean up some places I've been, give some new players something to do. You could even take a percentage for township upkeep. Provide an option for non-citizens to be able to pick up butchered corpses, within the boundaries of the settlement, without it being considered 'stealing'. That's the bottom line. What happens is: someone like me comes through town an finds a dead bear on the side of the road, killed by the guards. I butcher it and leave the meat an whatever other resources for whatever townie wants it for grinding purposes, but I take the useless leftovers (butchered corpse) over to the token and turn it in of the 11i. Town takes 1 or 2i because the guards killed it. I walk off with a reasonable 9 and the town has one less carcass attracting flies. Cheers, ~Amus Goodfellow Release, circa 2014
