Infact it&#8217;s been a crazy two weeks. I barely even remember how it started. I should&#8217;ve had this post done a long time ago, but I&#8217;ve just been so busy with post-moving and construction; having to do nearly everything on my own. Even worse is I haven&#8217;t had time to do any game reviews.<br \/>\nAll I can say, is the new place is called &#8216;Dragontail Hideaway&#8217; (which even has some official lore that I made up), and it&#8217;s smaller than it originally was going to be (21&#215;21 instead of 29&#215;29).<\/p>\n<p>Since so much has happened between &#8230;whenever I remembered what happened to now, I&#8217;ll just post the parts that mattered.<br \/>\nFirst off, Saint. He&#8217;s been helping me (more off than on) with this construction project. I don&#8217;t know what I can pay the guy of once we (or just myself) finally get done with this thing (as it seems as it&#8217;s been taking way too long to build). I also have been forced to work around his schedule, of when he&#8217;s able to take a break from building his deed (and his real life of taking care of his kids). Though one time I felt like he had &#8216;bailed&#8217; on me to avoid helping me make the second building that requires mortar. Thankfully that wasn&#8217;t the case.<\/p>\n<p>Up next, is Tulsi. I told him my plan of moving to the new deed all the way up to moving&#8230;and then, well, I&#8217;ll explain later on(possibly in its own post). A few days before I founded, I (as B2) decided to bring him with me and see how he likes the place (while I was still at OR talking to Saint while going over planning with him, of the deed). Instead of walking around and telling B2 what he thought about the place, he gave my alt a &#8216;gift&#8217; of several mob corpses I killed. When he felt the &#8216;gift&#8217; wasn&#8217;t accepted, he picked them all up, walked to my alt&#8217;s boat and acting like he was crying silently.<br \/>\nAnd then came the big day of moving out of OR (and disbanding the deed). Managed to only need two trips (mainly with how full I made my wagon and it didn&#8217;t want to fit in my Knarr). Very thankful that I&#8217;m allowed to load it with stuff in it, or it would&#8217;ve made the move a lot more tedious.<br \/>\nI had B2 escort Tulsi away from the deed (while I blew up everything on the deed). I made sure to grab everything I could. The only thing I didn&#8217;t (and regret a bit) is all of my horses. I should had put them all out of their misery instead of allowing the looters to claim them and force them to breed with their horses. But, it isn&#8217;t <em>that<\/em> big of a deal; half of them were venerable anyway, and would be no use to them. I was forced to kill the first horse I started with since coming back in 2015 (due to my own failure for not knowing when a horse isn&#8217;t branded anymore, I cannot interact with their inventory (without taming). I had no choice&#8230;<br \/>\nSee my next blog dedicated to what happened with Tulsi after.<\/p>\n<p>Back to the new place. Gathering the materials to build the place have been..less than fun (which is why it&#8217;s taking longer than normal). This is mainly because I&#8217;m trying to move away from &#8216;everything Planks&#8217; to Timber-Framed and Stone. Timber Framed, is surprisingly easier than I thought. It doesn&#8217;t require me to make bricks (nor even mortar). Just 5 wooden beams(with wide arches taking an additional beam), 10 mixed grass, and 20 clay per wall. Though, I feel like I&#8217;ve collected enough of it to make five guard towers by now. \ud83d\ude1b<br \/>\nStone is still &#8216;out of my league&#8217; due to my minimal Masonry skill (though Saint claims I should have no problem making mortar). Still&#8230; 20 Clay \/ Brick, and 2 Sand (that doesn&#8217;t include needing to gather more to cover failures) to make enough mortar for <strong>just one wall<\/strong>? That&#8217;s..insane. Now I know why mortar is a good seller (especially for people who build huge castles). Saint alone, has a friend who is &#8216;shitting bricks like there&#8217;s no tomorrow'(according to him). I asked him if his friend still has his sanity, and he says yes. Adding &#8220;I send him 10k shards. When he gets done with them, I&#8217;ll send him 10k more&#8221;(claiming he needs 22k in total for his deed)&#8230; fucking HELL, and here <em>I<\/em> was worried about abusing my own friendship with Saint?<\/p>\n<p>It took time to get over this &#8216;doesn&#8217;t feel like mine&#8217; feeling when Saint and I first started construction. People walking around my deed, and even through it (like it doesn&#8217;t exist) to attend some Sermon to the South and West of here. Most of the time, the person (or people) in my local flat out refuse to respond to me. I also was an accidental ass to someone who stayed in my local for the longest time. Asked if they were lost and stuff, and the person says &#8220;I just stepped outside of my deed&#8221;. Ouchy baba.<br \/>\nI also think I pissed off Lathe (again, accidental) while he was working on the canal and I was building the deed, telling him that I get paranoid when people stay in my local. Not the best thing to say to someone who has been here longer than I have. Yet I can&#8217;t help it. I don&#8217;t have walls (yet), and I feel even with a deed, people can take stuff from me. I don&#8217;t mean to offend these people. It&#8217;s just my fear of having people around me (that I haven&#8217;t worked with). In that spot, I cannot tell where they are. When it came to OR, it was usually someone passing by via boat.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking of friends though, I made one named &#8216;Moonjuice&#8217; who lives on the North side of the Kami Canal(the East canal to the ocean). She even gave me two 5-speed horses for free! However, both were just born(which&#8217;ll take possibly near the end of July when they&#8217;ll be ridable)..and both are male. Saint suggested once to breed them with the &#8216;crap&#8217; horses we have. However, after an emergency I saw with one of the horses in this temp pen we set up, being Diseased, I had to pull all the healthy ones out of it and into the new pens that I built.<br \/>\nNow he says he&#8217;ll try to &#8216;contact his Cele allies&#8217; (once he comes back possibly sometime this weekend) to see if I could get some more 5-speeds (that would hopefully be a breeding pair) and then kill off the wild horses to make room.<\/p>\n<p>Finally (to finally wrap up this post), food is no longer an issue. Saint showed me how to cook &#8216;Breakfast&#8217;, which is much, much better than Stew (and easier to cook). It&#8217;s just meat and a veggie, and boom done! I tried to cook some myself, and was &#8216;reminded&#8217; of just how long I had B2 cook for me over the years (with a 3QL Breakfast that barely filled myself up). B2 tried, and was able to make a max non-prem &#8216;20.00&#8217; QL Breakfast. This is both awesome, and sickening at the same time. It reminds me of what Jukimo told me, that I should be doing everything on &#8216;my main&#8217; and use my alt as a Priest.<br \/>\nSince this isn&#8217;t WoW (or a similar MMORPG), I refuse to call Dragonhead &#8216;my main&#8217; (as he&#8217;s..me). Dragonhead, is me, in Wurm. I do not see him as a &#8216;main&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p>So&#8230;I&#8217;m finally able to take a well-deserved break, and catch up with events outside of Wurm. The deed <u>will<\/u> survive without me (even though it&#8217;s still not fully walled-in yet). I got every structure complete (except for the farm and the &#8216;Grinding Floor&#8217; (the second thing alone, I&#8217;m waiting for Saint)). Finally I can write and complete all of my game reviews, and play Slime Rancher (which I bought during the Steam Summer Sale this year).<br \/>\nThough, those things will have to wait, as the MRT&#8217;s 5th Anniversary is here! I will be talking about this in a new post sometime in the evening. I hope it will be a lot of fun and laughs. Though, I have my doubts (and I also feel I&#8217;m being &#8216;judged&#8217; by a few people on the MRT Discord server), after stating I would come back on the same time as I did on Day 1. I decided against it, and will join as soon as I&#8217;m able.<br \/>\n(I feel people are more favorable of if their city will get Premiere than the anniversary. And people wonder why I rarely (if ever) come on the MRT anymore)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8230;and I&#8217;m not even close to completion.
