  1. If almaris had realistic travel distances travel times would be so horrible we'd all quit the server. not to mention the map file would probably corrupt or lag to crud with how big it'd be.
  2. I'm going on a fishing trip until Sunday. I'll be back on Monday at the latest. if I don't come back the fish ate me or something.
  3. [!] An unwanted newspaper is found inside your mailbox... The Hay Herald ~Bringing you quality news since a few Pumpkin Days ago!~ CONTENTS: ~Bigguns NEGLECT halfling child!~ ~Thief banished from the village, a supper gone WRONG!~ ~Upcoming village meeting~ ~Farm good prices~ ~Bigguns NEGLECT halfling child!~ In the far away lands of Celia'nor, where the strange-speaking bigguns do strange biggun things, a halfling child lives in a state of poverty, neglected by their so-called biggun "caretakers" who have failed at their duties in every way imaginable! I spoke with this child earlier, and they confirmed that they sleep every night in random bushes and are forced to scavenge the streets for food, often eating nothing but bugs and dirt! This child apparently has biggun caretakers over in Celia'nor, and yet they allow "their" child (which they have nay right to adopt in the first place, for all halflings belong in Honeyhill and naywhere else!) to live in absolute poverty! If any of ye newspaper readers are ever in Celia'nor and see a small halfling girl with brown hair, green eyes, tanned complexion, and humble clothing, bring them over to Honeyhill AT ONCE to end the cycle of CHILD ABUSE, NEGLECT, AND OPPRESSION! Halfling children should NOT be raised on the streets in biggun cities, for they all deserve a warm burrow and plenty of proper meals! ~A supper gone WRONG!~ ~The supper party in question~ The supper party in my burrow I brought up in the previous volume had a sour turn! I should have never let one of the big folks do the cooking; they could barely even find the kitchen and their food tasted terrible! After shoving their bad cooking down my throat, this foul biggun made off with some of my cheese and booze! As such, they now be BANISHED from Honeyhill! ~A drawing of the thief!~ Do NOT let this biggun enter the village until they've returned what they stole! ~Upcoming Village Meeting~ Keep an eye on the noticeboard for the final meeting date! The Thain & other elders ought to decide on a time shortly. While attendance will nay be mandatory, if you have any ideas for the future of Honeyhill and us weefolks as a whole, the meeting will be the best place to voice what ye have to say! ~Farm Goods Prices~ Trading resumed this year with strong growth in potato and wheat values. Increasing nearly two-fold in price, potatoes and breads skyrocket in value as bakeries shut down in this tight labor market while populations continue to soar on Almaris. It seems that with the influx of monk-provided minas, few of the bigguns want to work anymore, leading to new opportunities for halfling traders to enter the waning biggun farm good market. Pumpkins, long used as a medium of exchange, saw their trading volume decreased as pumpkin farming goes to producing pumpkin pies instead of acting as wealth to hoard engage in trade with. Hay bales, however, might be the NEW pumpkin when it comes to farm good barter. If wheat prices continue to increase, this very well may become the case, much to the disappointment of horses everywhere who've grown used to plentiful feed. It seems like prices can only go up! There is truly no ceiling to this growth! I fully expect individual bundles of wheat to hit 200 pumpkin value by the end of next year, if this current trajectory continues! Trade in your pumpkins for wheat/hay now or else you'll be left behind! -Filibert Applefoot, Elder of Honeyhill, Newspaper writer.
  4. We have a separate region but there is some overlap all over and added complexity.
  5. very nice WIP area in the bottom left corner LOL
  6. Should be multiple allowed idk why it needs to be one per region
  7. lotc twitter update

  8. I wonder if it'll become normal to send a message more than once in case the aviary is getting camped or someone shoots the bird down to read the message for fun. IMO there just needs to be a few rules added to regulate when/how birds get shot down so that birds aren't massacred en masse for the sake of it. Doesn't need to be 100% security that a message gets through (obviously that is not the point of the aviary plugin), but it needs to be good enough at sending messages for people to use it instead of just blatantly metagaming on discord or smth.
  9. Wait, discord birds were even allowed previously? Legit didn't know that.
  10. So are birds in flight represented with a parrot or what? Also, if the birds have to physically fly all the way over to their destination, will there be any rules against camping birds? Like, could you just sit in a common pathway for birds to travel between two popular aviaries and snipe every single message that is sent?
  11. Survival Minecraft is less grindy for materials & high quality food than Almaris is.
  12. So, something like this, but with the home spawn set to right on the intersection and a more centralized waterway? (this is a shiftnative concept art that wasn’t used)
  13. I think I’d prefer it greatly if 9.0 had more Y level variation between areas instead of within areas. Have the center of the map be higher up and the outer areas be closer to sea level, maybe with cliffs and waterfalls marking the transition. A cliff is both more memorable and usable for building than having the same amount of Y-level variation with steep hills.
  14. stop doing romance rp mail wtf
  15. Grohnst the Olog belches out "Iz ukii..... GrohNzt kan NUBZ reed du!". He'd go back to staring at the strange lines on the paper before wandering off with his lumbering gait, bits of silt kicked up into the air as he heads back home.
  16. "WAAAAGH!" shouts Grohnst the Olog
  17. [!] A notice is put onto the Honeyhill Noticeboard Banished! ~Apologies for tha bad drawing, my hands still be a bit shaky, but this is roughly what she looked like!~ Dear reader, the above person is BANISHED from Honeyhill for theft, assault, and having no respect for the elderly! They force fed me their terrible cooking right in my own burrow, only to nick a ton of booze and cheese from the pantry when told to leave! They even punched a fellow biggun on the way out, such a monster this person truly is! They be an elven lass with long, blond-silver-red hair. They should have a scar on their knee from where I nicked 'em when they were trying to escape justice earlier. They're the one who invented the Halfling Slide during the Flower Fair, so ye've likely seen them already. CRIMES: Bad cooking, Cheese & Booze Theft, Assault. Do NOT let this person into the village at all costs! -Filibert Applefoot, Elder of Honeyhill
  18. "Dear Ledicort Vuiller, T'is but a few scuffles over my apples that have concerned me. Most recently a woman stole one of my apples and threw it into a garden, claiming the apple was not up to her personal standards and thus not fit for trading. Receiving proper compensation for the apple took a bit of arguing, but it eventually happened. Regards, Filibert Applefoot"
  19. [!] A newspaper is put into your mailbox! You don't even remember subscribing to this newspaper.... The Hay Herald ~Quality news since yesterday!~ CONTENTS: ~Flower Dance is a success!~ ~Bad for business? A key insight into Celia'nor's managerial issues!~ ~Dinner Party @ the Applefoot burrow~ ~Farm good prices~ ~Flower Dance is a success!~ Good news for all ye party goers! The Flower Dance was a huge success, rivaled only by the Knox-o'-ween parties many Pumpkin moons ago! Fields were harvested, food was consumed en masse, and flowers were danced upon until they broke under the strain of many feet both big and small! Let us hope that future parties are as successful as this one was! ~Celia'nor, bad for business?~ Recent news coming from Adalgrin, a good pal of mine, tells an interesting story about the far-away mystical biggun land of Celia'nor. It seems over there the bigguns don't accept trades of any kind, preventing good ol' Adalgrin from opening a bakery there by paying taxes in booze and breads! Yet another instance of Big Government RUINING the dreams of a potential small business owner with unfair taxation and regulation! With this, I create the new Halfling Ease o' Doing Business Index (which ranks the ease that a halfling can get good trades in whatever nation be measured). The rankings now be as follows: Celia'nor: 1/10, barter is not accepted at all! Honeyhill: 9/10, we accept all barter! good for business! Haense: Probably around 5/10, haven't tried to open up a bakery there yet. Balian: 7/10, they love trading for my apples whenever I head down there, although theft remains a problem. ~Dinner Party @ the Applefoot Burrow~ ~A previous dinner party in the Applefoot burrow~ There be a dinner party in the Applefoot burrow planned in but a few days! Ye really ought to head over and take part! ((5 pm est, TODAY on 5/28/2022)) ~Farm good prices~ The market for farm goods remains strong, with apples leading growth in the sector with it's 50% growth from 2 pumpkins to 3 pumpkins value per apple. Hay prices remain stagnant at 1:1 with pumpkins, and beetroots crash once again to 20 roots per pumpkin with new Beelot slave production kicking up again after the Grand Bee Capturing o' Haelun'or. "Oi 'ave nay oidea who' th' curren' proices o' fahm goods ah- BU' OI SAY TH' PROICES MUS' GO UP! OUAH LABOH SHOULD BEH APPRECIA'ED!" -Adalgrin Bunce With such bullish analysis from resident business-halfling Adalgrin Bunce, how can one not feel the urgent need to invest one's life savings into Honeyhill grown & produced foodstuffs? -Filibert Applefoot, Elder halfling of Honeyhill, local newspaper writer.
  20. [!] A poem is found nailed to the Tavern Foraging Mushrooms besides trees, Dandelions in the fields, Leeks picked with ease, Onions with grand yields. Bring them all to me, for I am very, very hungry.
  21. "Ah, t'ere goes another one o' me ol' wives..." says Filibert with a sigh, a pipe in his mouth "Such beh t'a loife o' ah old halfling loike oi"
  22. hello everyone here's a burrow I made on the MessyMedieval building server Front entrance was made by master builder Jaezon, so I can't really take any credit for it (I did add in the flowers & steps leading up to it, however). Entrance Quite fond of how this study turned out I actually made a non-tiny kitchen, usable kitchen for once in my life. Bedroom Flower carpet just off from the main entrance room Pantry & hanging sausages (sneaky barrels in the corner of the screenshot) Dining table able to seat 9 people or so. Good for dinner parties. Behind the iron bars lies extra wood & coal for keeping the fireplace going.
  23. Cleric purity =/= High elf purity why are you conflating the two? There can be more than one concept of “purity” on the server at once.
  24. medieval LARP 90% of the server should be rural farmers
