Rifts have nothing to do with the global cast issues. Please keep that out here. The 100 rifts goal is not even hard. As a relative newbie, I went to my first rift no earlier than Feb-19, and my recent rift goal count for Destination Unknown is 45/100. While it is unlikely that I accomplish that goal this year, it won't take much of 2020 to do it. I consider it ways easier than e.g. the 500 recipes, and much less work than the 25 veins. Every goal, though, can be done if you put enough effort into it. The criticism of the global spell goal is not that it is hard. The criticism is that it is so aleatoric, for some possibly exclusive forever, no matter which effort they put into it. The criticism is further that the goal is divisive, turning groups of players against one another, encourageing antisocial and assholy attitudes, rewarding psychopaths and psychopathic behaviour. In my opinion, the devs need to address that criticism. They may judge about the complaints against other goals as they think it is right. In my opinion they should ignore them and work on something more significant.

Well was doing a monthly animal cull around my deed and found this shiny little chest no where near a starter town and better late than never. Cheers Retrograde the champagne will look good on the dining room table.

The Dead South - In Hell I'll Be In Good Company | A great, mellow - maybe even a bit melancholic - listen. A change of pace of what I usually post, but it's still absolutely amazing music.

They'd look like the arch wall options, but without the connecting portion at the top. Left only/right only options available. Intended purpose is to seamlessly join with arch walls on the floor above. I think it'd be nice to be able to build multistory arches, and was quite disappointed to learn that I couldn't!

Maybe someone should go over to the tar/clay pit, dig around a bit and look in that BSB...

Ok, so here's a very interesting idea. Wurm atm can only build on flat tiles, but how about we create foundation pillars that can create a surface to build on. The pillars will be created to your desired height (maybe some presets), you then add adjacent ones that will go to the same height. Now these will create a flat surface on the top to start adding floors. These foundation pillars will work like bridge supports where it calculates materials based on height etc. Now for getting up onto the building, you can maybe start using a ground floor building that connects to the pillars. Heck, what if you started by using a building and expand by using a new floor type with pillars that work in the same way as bridges. So you just make your first floor without pillars on a flat surface then add adjacent ones. The hardest part will planning it out. Do you have to create new tools? UI? Maybe use a surveying tool that you place on the first tile and then add in the direction you want? Just throwing this out there, would be a lot of work but will most likely revolutionise how we build buildings Cheers

That feel when someone asks for fancy rendering only high end cards can do for a game with like 5 animations...

You do not disappoint. You have delivered again. The first wagon combo was explosive. I'm quite sure if ridden near valrei many of the mobs and lunar source energy they derive would be sucked into a vortex funneling into those bardings. The last barding and saddle color with that horse looks truly like a reindeer horse..very perfect for xmas. I want one of those setups, as well as the pink and gold barding. Super Grande Luxe

Just as in title.

I'm almost to my 8th full year of playing wurm. I candidly enjoy it as much today as I did at the start with regard to the features and the endless possibilities of things to do and reasons for places to go. Since joining there have been regular game updates in functionality as well as new features and eye candy that keep me interested. I'm someone that likes to explore all aspects to the game and therefore often in many different places randomly setting upon a task or sometimes just freelance roaming about letting the game take me in a direction or activity. I play the game for entertainment, some escapism, and relaxation. It has been a good value in that regard of what it gives back to me for what I put into it. Over the years I've had encounters that have been joyous and not so joyous. The down experiences are often brief and limited, while joyful moments more regularly populate my hours of play. When playing , often I'll watch netflix, or amazon prime, listen to music, or chat on discord with fellow wurmians. To that end it has been relatively even keel and has afforded me the gifts of meeting some amazing people and building lasting friendships without ever a bump in the road. Over the last 9 or so months, it has been peculiarly different. There seems more tension in the air, players perhaps in heightened angst are chewing on each other more than normal in a community so well known for being far above the gaming average in community kindness, maturity, helpfulness. Moreover, players often socialize in a variety of mediums/manner sharing and making connections of substance where it's not uncommon that people extend beyond the game realm and into parts of their real life and support each other through good and bad. One of the beauties of wurm is that there is no one way or correct way to play it. There is also something for a great variety of play styles and personalities whether it be crafting, exploring and salvaging, combat play against other players, becoming merchants hawking goods for profit, being engineers building networks of roads, bridges, tunnels to connect wurmians to each other across the vast landscape, hunters of meats and hides, or the ultra class of player that wants to skill to the maximum in as many categories possible or amass skill titles for bragging rights. With that said it's hard to imagine where someone doesn't belong other than those that cheat in some manner of the game whether by fraud, mechanics exploit, account theft, or being an extremely toxic player stealing other's joy of playing. It hasn't been until recently, that i'm really finding it harder at times to hold on to that joy of playing and feeling part of and accepted in this community. There has been some ongoing needling at the way in which I speak, the length, the word choice. Sometimes being an independent thinker sharing thoughts that may depart from group mentality has caused ire. Sometimes talking at all is met with complete non response leaving me to question myself as if there is something perhaps wrong in what i'm doing. This oddly has not come in any meaningful way years prior. At times it has me question whether I continue to play or not, not because i don't enjoy the game but that I don't enjoy how I'm made to feel being just me. As I have not changed in any substantive way over the years, I'm of the thinking that this must be either an overall atmosphere change to wurm community or it is related to the company I keep, who and where I socialize. I'm not convinced I'm so different or some aberration. When looking over the years at the wurm community and considering those that have been removed from the game as problem players, I don't see there is any commonality there either. What I am convinced of is there are others in the game either like me or would appreciate my way of being and my style of game play. I'm not solely a pve player nor pvp player, I sometimes dabble in selling some goods and services for the fun/immersion aspect to the game yet by no means any prolific seller in any regard. I tend to just play, doing a little of everything and eventually amassing skill along they way vs any intentional grinding. It keeps me from burnout. I also tend to rather play the game as an exploration of some far away land and derp vs for skill titles or profit selling. I am betwixt. Part of me thinks it best to leave wurm. A greater part of me has plans to consolidate my deeds, disbanding the bulk living in one location. Another endeavor is to make a large scale "hiking" trail around xanadu meant not for prizes or contest other than the contest within yourself. A trail that is meant as an experience of a different kind where what happens along they way organically builds an experience or who you choose to take the journey with and the laughs and predicaments you find yourself in while travelling. If any of what you read speaks to you, I'd like to hear about it, here or in pms. This is just an open ended thought log meant to convey what's on my mind recently and what I hope from it. I'd like to find others to do some activities with that are more aligned in this manner. I've not been super successful, of recent, in venues and activities I've taken part in.

0.4kg legacy item [13:40:51] You have a moment of inspiration... [13:40:51] You improve the butchering knife a bit. [13:49:20] A heavy knife with a bent blade perfect for butchering. This is a supreme example of the item, with fine details and slick design. It is glowing from the heat. It could be improved with a lump.

I'm looking to sell off 100s via paypal. Rate is 1s = 1euro, can message me over forums, ingame, or over discord under the same name if you're interested. Thanks

are you telling me this isn't natural? I just figured they had a rough night.

Stilts for extending a house onto a hillside, etc. would be great! I have no idea how hard they'd be to implement (probably a pain) but the options it would open up are fantastic.

Minecraft is also owned by a company worth several hundred billion US dollars.

As I logged on this morning, I got a notification that I had 6 items to collect from the mailbox. I went to check, and was greeted by the following screen. So, I checked to make sure that the notification did say 6, and I wasn't just seeing things: [06:13:51] You sense imps whispering your name and saying you have 6 mail waiting to be picked up. After this, I expanded the fishing rod to make sure the rest of the pieces were still inside, in case I needed to report them missing, where I see this: Somehow, the other items that I was sent, have been listed inside the fishing rod, which seems like an issue. I have not picked up any of the items yet, in case someone needs to come look at my account, but keep in mind, I do only have 10 more days on some of them. Beyond that, I will be forced to collect them.

Please make a forge option we can carry on a cart of in a wagon or ship AND have it lit to work or keep ores hot. This can be used while travelling or offloaded. Secondly, a bedroll similar to wagoneers! Why are they the only ones with easily portable beds? (This gives sleep bonus, of course.) Please help the camping community with these essential items. Thanks.

yes

Wheres the weird option for a shower curtain with Rolf's Face on it? I want to scare people that come over to my house, LMAO!

People actually use inns and they aren't just decoration/roleplay?

Looking for one charge of each, post here or forum pm me

+1 for the well written post. I can invest a premium toon, to help you guys get the count, can have it logged in almost always. ETA of approach. 20.08 around 9 PM eu time Jimbean o/

Here be leprechauns... (sorry, couldn't resist! Those rainbows are just too beautiful )

No, my argument is that lets assume you spend your saturday grinding weaponsmithing, but then someone logs in on monday when you are at work and gets all your skillticks because you missed the skilltick lottery window.

Hi folks. I'll look at this once I'm back from vacation. Maybe I can fix some bugs.

Love reading your posts, keep it up. Hope you find that spark of fun and joy once again. Having said that, a bit of a break may be what is required. Don't be shy or feel bad if you feel you need to be away for awhile. All the best.

Notice the timestamps and that they are all about the same character. Seems to happen every time I cross a server border. Super annoying.

Hello everyone. I was doing a bit of baking and beverage making and thought of some ideas. Sweet Potatoes Making this brightly colored, starchy tuber would be easy. Sugar + Potato = Sweet Potato Biscotti Biscotti are long, crunchy, and dry cookies that are usually dipped in beverages such as coffee or a dessert wine. They get their texture from being baked twice. Any cookie + knife = cookie pieces. Place the cookies pieces back on a baking tray and bake again in an oven = biscotti. Limoncello Limoncello is an Italian lemon liqueur that is made from steeping the zest of lemons with a spirit, such as grappa or vodka. It is then mixed with a simple syrup. Lemon + vodka + sugar + water + saucepan or cauldron = limoncello

+1 Life enhances with ever drop of Limoncello. Gabagool would be ripped off the vendor carts from rioting crowds clamoring for links

Well said. Wurm is what it is, and perhaps, even improves over time. The only thing that change, is people, the one who matter stays... the rest can be muted, blocked and ignored. Works for me.

+1 for Biscotti, so long as we get coffee beans for making coffee.

Excellent: Might I propose: Gabagool: Sausage Skin + Fat + Salt + High QL pork + Wine + Garlic.

Should add some large and small mouse pads to the store. Might help me find my way without having to bring it up on the screen lol

At face value i loved this and took it as a compliment or clever humor poke as i said earlier. Now, to emphasize the ludicrous so others don't truly misread too much into my own postings, think about the following: Did you know sans is french for "without and in print you'll often see a font called sans...for example sans serif. which means without a serif..the extra stylized ink stroke on the end of a vertical letter. comic sans is a type font ofc, but to read this literal is to say my post is without comic or humor. It was just a fun entendre' to muse as well as to illustrate how something of nothing can be taken way out of context.

Part of being a deep caring intimate person is getting hurt easily. You are certainly the deepest and most philosophical person I have ever met. And to many that kind of thing can be overwhelming (not to me) in a video game. And I believe that you are beautiful who you are. My own playstyle is somewhat similar to yours, I can never stay in the same place, I love travelling, exploring, meeting people, one of the things that motivates me to get very high in a skill is to help others and have a little thing to feel proud of. Solmark kind of took the words out of my mouth, people are unpredictable in times of pressure or from rl issues. And It's good to learn to not read too much into people's words. Especially when they're upset or caught off guard. One of the most important things I have learned is to keep the integrity of who I am intact with people who I speak to. Because if I find my behaviour and creative self is filtered, around them, then I am doing myself wrong. And the most important rule of all is to respect others boundaries and protect their feelings. Something I lacked when I knew you. (Hi Bloodscythe!) The atmosphere of the game has certainly grown dire, and hostility has massively increased. Stay pure in the midst of it, and you will have a good time, you are in more control of your emotions than you ever know. You just need to find a way, and stay close to those who appreciate your big boy heart.

T Shirt, Coffee mug, Mouse pad please in this...I'd very much buy atleast one. This by far is a Must! Not only does it apply to wurm and a great insider humor and Lore builder, but it has great universal appeal in a very catchy way to a far wider Audience begging the prospective person to wonder who is this Gurn..what is this Gurn, why are so many talking about Gurn, imagine your internet browswer Trending Gurn. Who is Gurn? is ever as worth as some of these hugely successful advert slogans...." Got milk?", " Taste the Rainbow" , "Who is John Galt?", "I'm Lovin' it" "Have it Your way", "Just Do It", "What can Brown do for You?", "when it Rains it Pours", "Finger Lickin' Good".......

How 'bout: "This mug's position isn't updated. Please drink slower". Edit: or "You're too far away from the coffee." Thorin

How To Use The Map 1. Navigating the map You can zoom and pan (move) the map using your mouse. Zoom in and out by scrolling the mouse wheel or using the "+/-" buttons in the upper left corner. Pan the map by holding the left mouse button while moving your mouse. 2. Map coordinates The map is based on "tile coordinates". According to Wurmpedia "a tile is a 4 meter by 4 meter square on the ground, which pretty much makes up the world of Wurm". The Exodus server is a square of 2048 x 2048 tiles (corresponding to roughly 8 x 8 kilometers). On the official map dump image as provided by Code Club AB each pixel corresponds to a map tile. Map tiles are described by 2 coordinates (x, y), each counting from 0 to 2047. This coordinate system (unlike the "classical" Cartesian system) has its origin in the upper left corner: For example, the upper left corner of the map has the coordinates (0,0), the upper right corner is at (2047, 0). While you move your mouse pointer over the map the coordinates of the current map point are displayed in the sidebar (field "Current"): This is how you determine the precise coordinates for any map point you may want to work with. You can also select a point on the map (to save its coordinates) by a single left-click. A small crosshair symbol will appear and the coordinates will be shown in the field "Selected". The contents of that field can be copied to the clipboard in the usual way (by selecting and pressing Ctrl-C). Clicking on the same location again (on the crosshair symbol) will remove the marker. 3. Layers Most information on the map is provided as a layer that can be turned on and off. You see a list of available layers in the sidebar. By clicking the little checkboxes you can toggle that type of map information on and off: The letters in parentheses are the hotkeys to quickly toggle a layer: Press "D" to toggle deeds Press "H" to toggle highways Press "B" to toggle bridges Press "T" to toggle tunnels and canals Press "R" to toggle resources (clay, tar...) Press "S" to toggle special places (mission structures...) Press "G" to toggle the map grid. The "map grid" is an overlay showing grid cells that use the same notation as the in-game map. This can be very helpful when trying to describe the location of an area for another player when in-game. 4. Map types In correspondence with the various map dump types released by Code Club AB, you can choose between a pure terrain map and a topographic map: 5. Find a settlement or special place If you want to find a particular settlement or a special place, just use the Search function in the sidebar. You can either enter a name or use the drop-down list: 6. Loading the map with coordinates You can load the map by adding location coordinates to the URL (web address) like this: http://exodus.yaga.host#<x>,<y> (Replace <x> and <y> by valid location coordinates). The map will load and be centered on the given location (if the coordinates are valid). In addition, every time you select a location by left-clicking on a point on the map the URL shown in the address field will change to show the selected coordinates. Thus, you are able to share a view of a certain map area by just copying the address shown in the address field of your browser. MAP UPDATE - JANUARY 2020 When activating the coordinate grid (press "G") you can now also see the "map regions" as used in mission descriptions. There are 9 regions: northwest, north, northeast, center west, center, center east, southwest, south, southeast Map regions are shown by dashed black lines and slightly colored area overlays. Deed Info We've also added a new experimental function: we can now display special deed info when the mouse pointer hovers over a deed symbol. (This can be useful to inform about special resources, like mailboxes, Epic portals, market stalls etc.) As an example, if you mouse over Hunters Port https://exodus.yaga.host/#1161,1951 You can see that there is a POK tile and a Mailbox, but you can request any (sensible) information for your deed - please contact me (Solmark) if you would like to use this special feature for your deed!

Answers offered so far by non-devs: Snoo, Wonka: It is too difficult to change. Wargasm: The goal is competitive by design. Goldfever: There is no problem in the goal itself.

I felt Miss Sophie's 'party' was a little devoid of party goers so I made some for her. It was nice seeing some parts of Indy again. A lot has changed while I was away, that's for sure.

This must be my lucky day! Supreme rainbow enchanted long-sword - yaaay! Who knew that I could be a fighter? And my purse is not much lighter. For those well armed and well defended - Dragon Beard's comes recommended.
