Now Tulsi can no longer &#8216;have fun&#8217; by trying to jump off a cliff.<br \/>\n-Removed trees from the animal pen. May consider getting a priest to enchant the grass to keep future trees from growing. Yet this would also stop me from turning the pen back into a farm if it requires it. And the trees aren&#8217;t really that big of a deal. Infact, it&#8217;s &#8216;free&#8217; lumber.<br \/>\n-The gates have been secured (not sure how well, but they&#8217;re locked nonetheless). This is, once again, to stop future trolls and goblins from trolling me by going past the fence.<br \/>\n-I&#8217;ve resetted the passwords for both DH and B2 (as I needed to write them down, and it&#8217;s always a good thing to do so)<br \/>\n&#8230;And lastly I&#8217;ve extended the deed border to cover the shoreline (to protect the guard tower and my remaining boats from decay). The upkeep cost is still 1s. Win win! \ud83d\ude00<\/p>\n<p>Resetting the passwords was probably the longest event of the five. I had forgotten B2&#8217;s password and the email I did for him, so I was forced to make a ticket. And oh yeah, I had to make another ticket last night because I thought I was exploiting.<br \/>\nI had B2 and myself pushing that fountain up to the deed. When we&#8217;re going up the side ramp, all the sudden I&#8217;m able to push it infinitely with no timer! Was freaking out, but was told that this was no exploit..but a feature! Said that now, if the object is in the border of your village, you can infinitely push it. VERY nice!<\/p>\n<p>Back to the whole password thing, it took about 3-4 hours until I got a response. Had to get B2 on and then answer a few questions to prove that B2 is my alt (and how long I&#8217;ve had him). He set the email to one I can remember and gave me a new password. So that&#8217;s all set.<br \/>\nAlso, one of these days I&#8217;m going to have to hire a master Prospector for my mine, and find me some high-QL veins. The only iron vein I have is capped at 31.00QL. Not good when you need at least 70QL to make anything decent (as the Impalong has shown me).<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s basically it here. Everything that needed to be done due to months of me being on &#8216;hiatus'(aka no desire to play Wurm), has been done. All I really need now&#8230;is what was in my backpack to be returned to me. I&#8217;m getting close to the point where I&#8217;m about to say &#8220;FUCK IT!! I&#8217;m just going to re-buy everything I lost instead of wait for you fucking Sloths to investigate (where there&#8217;s not even a guarantee I&#8217;ll get my stuff back)!&#8221;<br \/>\nI have no way to contact them via ingame to see what the fuck is taking so long. It&#8217;s been two days. Tomorrow will mark a week since the accident. And really, most of this stuff I should be able to replace with a bit of effort. I just wish I had a picture of what I had lost. But from what I see in my coffin, all I really remember losing is the lantern, my good compass, and a halter rope. I also had cotton, but that is oh so easily replaced.<br \/>\nI still have all of the tools I had before. So really.. why am I even doing this? I know how to prevent the issue from happening again (as B2&#8217;s lantern has proven it).<br \/>\nThough it does scare me, of what if it wasn&#8217;t my lantern that caused the bug. Yet it&#8217;s also the last thing I remember doing (that was in my backpack).<\/p>\n<p>.<br \/>\nGOOD NEWS, EVERYONE!! The investigation has completed, and the verdict is in my favor! I was looking out of my house&#8217;s second floor window (infront of the bed), wondering of why I&#8217;m even getting impatient with the GMs (as I feel I&#8217;m not really going to be any more active than I currently am in this game) after the investigation&#8217;s complete.<br \/>\nI then got a surprise PM from a &#8216;Tarissa&#8217; (a GM) who asked me if I remembered losing anything else from the other items. I told them my halter rope, and they were able to &#8216;fetch&#8217; mostly everything that was in my Xanadu copy, including things I had forgotten were in it. I got my lantern back (that was the source of the bug), the compass, the halter rope, and also my old lantern. I even got the grooming brushes that Ghost gave me!<br \/>\nThe only thing I didn&#8217;t get are some healing covers, but this is OK. I don&#8217;t really need them when I have cotton (and avoid things that can kill me) on my travels.<\/p>\n<p>Very happy, but again also a bit nervous to put anything in my backpack. Eventually I&#8217;m going to have to get over my fear. Just..don&#8217;t keep my lantern on when I log off.<br \/>\nMmmm. It&#8217;s going to take awhile. Plus they never really said it was a bug. But the fact they never hesitated to restore what they could, kind of proves it is.<br \/>\nAt least now I&#8217;m free to go back to Xanadu if I wish.<\/p>\n<p>.<br \/>\nOh yeah, I forgot to mention this. I spoke to Shrimpiie today in PMs, and it&#8217;s official that he&#8217;s going to be doing the Impalong this year. And the location is Hermit Island(the Southeast island). His place is on the north side of the island. I also discover I won&#8217;t have to go that far to reach it. On the ingame map, there&#8217;s an East\/West canal that&#8217;s Southeast of FM. This gives access to the eastern side of the server. I can use this to get to his place instead of having to traverse the server.<br \/>\nAlso, I now have a reason to go there. With the new &#8216;upgrade&#8217; of my deed&#8217;s size, I can make more lamps (and have them imped there)!<br \/>\nI also asked him when it&#8217;s going to be, and he said it&#8217;ll be &#8220;the last two weeks of December&#8221;. That means it should start on the 18th of that month.<\/p>\n<p>Got months to plan this out, so there&#8217;s no rush. Even though I really want to, it&#8217;s still way too early to do so.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today&#8217;s been quite the busy day. -The five missing stone walls on the main ramp have been replaced.
