So, Rhea gave me an idea. She mentioned in the Tapestry Competition thread how frustrating it was to limit the contest to ONE ENTRY per person, when the very nature of the contest got us all juiced up with crazy ideas. So ... consider this an OVERFLOW thread, of all the things we WANTED TO ENTER BUT COULDN'T, because of the rules limitations. "Mystic Unicorn," inspired by a WU project: This a variation of a 2014 post I made about Deity themed tapestries, which Evening's incredible tapestry reminded me to work on again, it is a collection called "Four Deities", which is based of digitally altered screenshots other players have taken over the years of the God Avatars in the game. "Birch Trees On Red Tundra" IF YOU HAD EXCESS IDEAS THAT YOU WERE NOT ALLOWED TO ENTER DUE TO CONTEST RULES -- POST EM HERE!!!

I think there are many wurmians that like me wish they could get their hands on more white-dotted flowers... I'd really like to become able to harvest a flower or two from flowerbeds, maybe even only once per ig year. It takes 5 flowers to plant a flowerbed, so beeing able to harvest something afterwards seem apropriate.

Ty Brash for supporting my ideas and lets hope Devs can hear us Glad you like my Roast Boar, it is simple but can add great decor accent to any wall of Inn or kitchen etc. Stained glass effect works too but bit too busy as to my taste. Well, I decided to follow your thread and post 2 more tapestries ideas I had too and lets see what happens LOL Here is one from "Uniques" series: Portrait of Blue Dragon. Here is another from "Xanadu landscapes" series : Sailing away Can post original screens if someone interested. Anyways, Good luck everyone with contest !

"Winter Storm At Nettlesnook" ... because I love my "other life" on Sklotopolis:

Allow a minimum size graveyard to spawn skeletons as aggressive mobs. It's a great model, why not make more use out of it?

Welcome to Wurm. I would offer you shelter, tools and gear but it seems you are doing just fine, and the game is much more fun in the begining when you craft your own world. I wont ruin that for you since it seems you got past the hard phase and are now a keeper. Regardless, feel free to hit me up here or in game if you need help. I am sure most of those here would feel the same. Dont get dissuaded by the complexity of things, if you need help, if you loose your corpse in the forest with all your tools, if you cant cross to another server, or if you cant build something, just ask. This community has a big heart and I know people who will go out of their way to help. We are all in this together, and chances are we know a trick or two you may not that might save you a load of grief. Goodbye real life. Welcome to Wurm.

I don't think any explanation is really needed for this level of awesomeness, but I would suggest that there is a loud 'clang' sound when it hits.

I am just finishing my first week of Wurm Online. The game is amazing and the addiction is real. I found the game through the Steam Recommended Games feature. I tried Wurm Unlimited for two days before making the jump over to Wurm Online. There are very few twitch streamers and youtube playlists for Wurm Online; however, the few that are out there are what pushed me from Unlimited to Online. A few things... I went prem almost immediately. I understood the benefits and the price wasn't terrible. I read a lot about the game being pay to win and I can see both sides of the argument. I have no interest in this debate. The music was the first "wow" moment for me. This game has a unique feel and atmosphere. I love it. The tutorial area really sucks. I learned more from youtube tutorials than anything in the game. I can see how this would turn a lot of new players off to the game. This game could really benefit from more streamers. If I had seen this on twitch or something, I would have been here sooner. The game may not be able to heavily market itself - but you all can. On the flip side though, twitch streaming the production of 1000 bricks may not be so entertaining. YOU guys are why this game is so great. Every person I have met in Wurm Unlimited and Wurm Online have been friendly, helpful and active. I've met random people along the road, wandered into settlements and chatted with folks in the irc channel and in game. All have been friendly, helpful players. Thank you to everyone I have met and I look forward to meeting more of you. I have already put more hours in than I am comfortable admitting.

I love both of those, I can;t even decide which one I love more Probably "Portrait Of A Blue Dragon" since i just has WURM!LOVE all over it. But, "Sailing Away"/Xanadu Landscapes has such a lovely romantic "old fashioned" aura, like something from the very early days of photography. That is the one i would want to put in my own house.

Ack I took out "the first one" as I was afraid I was going a little too ... hog-wild. But since you mentioned that one specifically, I should add it back maybe So ..putting back "Mystic Unicorn Version #1":

I agree, and for now I started what might be called "An Overflow Thread" under Artisans Bench, for additional entries we were inspired to try, but could not submit due to contest rules of one entry per person. Hopefully other people who wanted to make multiple entries here can post "what i woulda have entered if I coulda" Maybe some multi-image sets of the "categories" that Rhea suggested ": a series on Holidays, or Pets, or Village Life, etc.

and least we forget. The One Whom Was Foretold.

As usual I am not going to address the pvp part of the game here both because I have little interest in it nor knowledge about its fine points that might need adjustment. I leave all that to the pvp enthusiasts to address, as long as changes don't negatively effect the PvE side of the game. I think one of the strong points of Wurm is that you can play for years, grow and shape your Village and it will always remain so (as long as the fees are paid). The game is really focused upon this Village aspect and most development centers around this as well; Village building, crafting items for it and the resulting Community this enhances and supports. With this in mind any shut down (destruction) of the various servers will destroy all Villages upon it that other players have built and focused their game play upon. Do this and you destroy a vital and alluring part of the game and the players who have enjoyed this as well, once they depart out of anger for their loss. The idea proposed that eliminating (false=merge) servers will bring the player base closer together makes little sense since if they really wanted to be "closer" they would just all migrate to the same server. The evidence shows that this is not really desired by most but rather just a few who are more than willing to endorse the destruction of years of work of other players just to have their own way of *forcing* everyone to play on one server. The choice of offering others many PvE servers to play upon is clear as evidenced by the number of different ones that are populated. For Community gathering and interactions a much better option exists, which are portals to gathering points on different servers or even portals from every server to a central gathering point somewhere. The time consuming travel options within Wurm are more of what discourages "Community" than anything else and until that resistance is resolved the situation will remain much the same as it has always been. Also, lets face the fact that Wurm Unlimited has drawn away a good number of WO players with its much greater variety in skill/action gains/timers, as well as many mods of convenience. Nothing can really be done about this as again player choice will remain the deciding factor. The only way WO can prosper is to build on its strong points, one of course being the stability and assurance that its various servers will continue on for years into the future, as long as Wurm Online survives. Happy Trails =Ayes=

Any plans for sleeping on ships.. maybe even wagons? Now that horses can be carried on ships, it's really the only missing step for the subscribed deedless wanderers to peddle their trades around the world.

Fret on the Loch

And because I'm very very bad and could hardly decide ..

I can't draw but a lot of medieval tapestries featured dragons with more than one head depicting powerful entities...so this got me thinking: How about something depicting the eternal struggle of light (Fo, Vynora and Mag) vs dark (Libila)? I tried putting the light side against light background while adding darker touches behind Lib. Obviously more artsy people can draw this properly and add some snazzy celtic type scroll frames or something, but paying homage to the oldest deities seem somehow fitting, with a reference to dragons. (The tapestry below does not really show a struggle, which is what I would have liked, but since I can't draw, it will have to just convey the basic idea!)

A Promising Foal:

+1 if you female and married it does double damage

As most of u know i have been a very active player for years on the epic cluster like many others here. I still login now and then to see how its going on over there coz i cannot see the player numbers on the forums anymore. Its shocking how low the population is nowadays, its horribly low and there is no sign of it getting better it seems. Is there any plans in the works? Or is it just gonna bleed out? It really saddens me to see that the cluster i have been on for years is like completely empty. Anyone has ideas? Thoughts? Discussions?

How about farming mushrooms in caves,,, perhaps in flower boxes.

So I know this suggestion has come up lots of times, but I figured I'd offer a suggestion as to how it could actually work. For anyone who missed it, the basic problem is that you can only pull as many items as you can carry at a time out of a BSB, even when transferring from one BSB to another (for BSB, you can substitute crate or FSB). For small, light stuff like cotton, this will probably be limited by the number of items in your inventory, so probably not too bad; when transferring, say, ore to a smelter (from a crate), weight becomes an issue, and you might only be able to transfer 8, 10, 12 (etc) ores per action. This leads to much pointless click-drag-enter, which doesn't add anything to the game beyond speed bumpage. The situation is even worse when transferring a wagon's worth of rock shards or dirt to storage BSBs. Compare this to digging. You can individually dig single dirts, but you can also set up a level action; levelling doesn't take any less time but it provides a similar outcome without all the unnecessary click-and-drag. I propose that there be a similar action for transferring items to and from BSB-like containers, so you essentially start the action going, and it continues until the source container is empty, the target container is full, or you run out of stamina. Or (obviously) you cancel the action. Thus transferring a lot of items still takes some time, but doesn't require so much annoying micro-management.

Wagons can hold up to 7 dirt crates, 9 huge crates and 15 medium crates. Idea shamelessly stolen from Wess, these things are amazing, please add! The 500/250 sizes are nice as they are add up easier to 1,000, Making market transactions a little cleaner when making bulk sales rather than trading in partial crates. 150/300 I never did understand how those numbers came about. The dirt crate is very nice, when you are working on massive terraforming projects this is the way to go.

they could make it last as long as the newbie buffs, but as a second compass starter town that way but really if they get the highway bugs worked out, the new highway system will make it easy for a newbie to find his way back to the starter town and all over the server for that matter

Making bricks can be a long boring process that can turn many people away from WO or WU who play with out gm powers. So why not evolve wurm a bit in the art of making bricks. Instead of making a single brick at a time industrialize it a bit by making brick molds. example make brick mold then fill brick mold with x amount kg of clay then but mold in kiln till hardened. mold produces 6 to 12 bricks based on how much kg of clay is allowed in the mold maybe the mold has 8 or 10 slots so you use that much clay to fill the mold. stone bricks should remain the way they are now cause they have to be chipped into brick but clay can and should use a mold system.

How-wild? No such thing! I would make it more pink and purple...as you know my Party Palace is one big pink ball of shine which requires at least two pair of sunnies (edit: Sunglasses, for those not living in Australia) to behold!

this REALLY made me laugh! (I think I also saw him in the cave drawings of S07E04 GOT)

This. New players like this giving the community and development staff non-biased feedback like this is what makes this game better and better. I am so glad you are enjoying Wurm, it's really good to see you staying positive. If you need any help ingame, PM me, Nomadikhan, or anyone else around here on the forums or those in your local area. You'll find we are super helpful and very community oriented. Many of us will help you any way we can. I may not be in your area or even server, but I'd be happy to improve or create some tools for you and mail them your way.

sent you PM with details. Thanks.

This is an older screenshot of a house that i had decorated when the new furnishings had just come out but it is still one of my favorite ones.

Great server. Great PVP community. If you ever wanted to try out PVP in wurm come give this server a try.

bring back old nolocate

WOW! Def my favorite! I would mark the other two as "I considered but decided not to officially submit these" so that they won't disqualify the top one for multiple entries (and the top one is absolutely my favorite). I know thats why the other two are "hidden" but just make it super clear as someone somewhere might challenge it. That way if you really want feedback that you made the right choice, people can tell you. But the top one is glorious and hands down the best. I would actually like to see the staff ask you to make one for each original god (Fo Vyn Mag too) so that people can decorate their own private churches and shrines with the god of their choice. I myself would want one for Fo but not ones of all four gods. Using the same art style for all four would be my preference. Easiest to ask you to do all four, if that is something you find interesting to do.

Would be fantastic if Mclavin stops ignoring my forum pm's so we can conclude this transaction

Love this one because it reminds me so much of

Fairyshine who laughs when I am eccentric and once tried to breed me a fleet of five speed cows 'cause I didn't pay for premium but still needed a trusty steed. Yuri for imping my stuffs for free and happily sends the rare tools back if they happen to go rare on imps. Yata for giving me jam sammies and many cakes. Bloodsteel for showing me a hidden mine just behind my deed. Ardraug for digging a hole in a clay wall so I can sail out of my harbor after some nut raised the clay. You are all very cool and made my time in wurm very enjoyable.

Pefect timing for the crate rack... I can almost build large crates xD But.. new skill? Did I miss anything?

Alyeska's and Ehizellbob's are my favorites so far! You're all very talented, color me impressed.

Just wanted to keep people posted on things and what I'm up too. New rugs and runners as well as 2 oval rugs to spice things up. Yes in case anyone was woundering them are new models not reskined models from CC. Edit:Also new Wall picture frames and pictures.

https://forum.wurmonline.com/index.php?/topic/129398-my-paaaaaaaaaaaantssssss/ My vote goes to: (please make tall tapestry)

New low dresser with color and new longer marble table for them bigger dinner halls.

Yeah nah. Merge or broke. We already have a pvp and pve servers on the same cluster and it just allows people to keep valuables safe without fear of losing it. Granted the same can be achieved with alts already. Merging the more pvp active Chaos server to epic won't help the situation due to the sheer amount of people who use the freedom servers as a second home/hunting ground. If that happened I'd likely sell most of my freedom assets because I am a lot more active in pvp than freedom. Merging the epic cluster to freedom/chaos will bring back players and accounts left sitting to rot in the dust. There'll probably be those that won't want to lose hard work on the home servers so keep those around as freedom servers. A good portion of the elevation player base has been wanting a new map for quite some time now so just piss that off completely and give all of us pvpers a new pvp map on the freedom cluster so we all start on even footing.

IDK why I only saw this recently:
