What is a stone bolero?

i did a google image search and it seems to be a woman's top - often worn as part of a wedding dress. Also a jeep-like vehicle. I only ask because i want to make a jeep-like vehicle out of stones and string-like materials in RL.

Also, what are string-like materials?

Bolas, yeah.

You know, vines, woven grasses, sinews. Vines would probably be best. If stone-age guys could do it, so can I.

 

[Immaculate]

There go my dreams for a cheap vehicle

 

[Lord_Herobrine]

Well, you might first want to invent the wheel

 

[Patchy]

1 AP Craft fire near the entrance of the cave
1 AP Hunt birds with the sling
1 AP Sleep

Orders in today?

[TIMER="4/24/2013 11:00 PM GMT"][/TIMER] woo.

Reminder, you can ask me about building/making anything outside the official rules on the front page. I've added these to the ever-growing ITEMS AND CRAFTING FORMULAS list, (might eventually make some kind of google docs thing with icons for this):

• Sticks, Tree Branches or Grass can be crafted into a Hide: better shelter than nothing. Can be used as a place from which to ambush prey. (1AP)
  
  
• Sticks can be crafted into a Stick Fence: fence off one small building or patch of crops/pasture at a time. A weak deterrent but better than nothing. (1AP)

 

[Angst]

Angst's orders:

1 AP: Help my family moving southeast.
2 AP: Try to procure food for my family by gathering along the way with my beautiful Stone Tools.

Yea. That'll be it for now.

Patchy and Chinese Warlord! How do you feel about making that Cave our permanent home? It's defensible, and we can farm outside, as well as create a wall across the entrance (or a pit trap.)

 

[Lord of Elves]

Begging mercy for orders!

1AP - Do my part and help forage for food and/or tend the garden.
2AP - Attempt to salvage wood from the forest fire, and/or run very fast in the opposite direction
1AP - Sleep in hut.

Just out of curiosity, could the erupting volcano potentially create more land? Albeit crusted with ash and cooled lava.

 

[Daftpanzer]

I went through the player list and removed everyone I had orders for. Which leaves me with this no-orders-recieved list:

alex994: spawned, 5 days old. Female with Robust build, Spiritual, Lucky.

North King: spawned, 5 days old. Male with Average build, Artistic, Charm.

TheDright: spawned, 4 days old. Male with Slender build, Hardy, Lucky.

Eltain: spawned, 0 days old. Male with Average build, Braveheart, Energetic.

I guess TheDright has lost interest/is busy, and Eltain seems to be a no-show after respawning. Anyone want to jump in?

-> If anyone wants to take over TheDright's spot, feel free to jump in with orders!

-> And with Eltain, since that character hasn't done anything yet, someone can take over and change the character: gender, traits and all. I'd reccomend a darker skin tone (5+) for that climate though.

First come first serve on these! I know its not fair, but I'll need orders!


Anyhows. I'm starting the update tonight, aiming to get it posted by the end of the week. Thanks to the 19 players who posted orders so far - I think that's a record for any NES of mine

Yep indeed - the terrain should not be considered static. Climates/biomes could change also.

I was gonna be Herobrine's child, but if you don't mind I'll take over theDright instead.

I'd prefer to keep on moving, although the cave may be defensible the areas around it are not good for hunting. The only small and safe prey that we have are the fish and birds. Everything else could kill us if we get unlucky. Although farming may seem like a way to get around this we still have to feed ourselves while the crops grow.

Your choice! That's fine with me Send orders for theDright if you want to jump straight in and claim that spot.

 

[Eltain]

Eltain -

1: Go down the gentle slope to the east, then carefully make my way down the steeper, more dangerous one to the north.

2: Climb the tree and eat some berries or fruit or whatnot. While I am up there..

3: Rest in the tree.

 

[Daftpanzer]

Sorry I doubted you Eltain! And thanks

 

[North King]

- Greet the nearby people, offering a spare set of parrot feathers as a token of friendship.

- Attempt to gather some likely looking rocks to craft a pickaxe. Has to be a snazzy pickaxe befitting of an artiste.

- If I stumble across one, feel free to spear an animal to feed either myself or the possibly growing encampment of people.

- Also run away very fast if the forest fire starts burning. Shelter in the glowy cavern.

You may be right. We should think of settling down at some point, though. Wanna stick around here for a couple more days, gather our strength, etc?

I'd say that when everyone has at least 3 AP we should be in good enough shape to keep on moving. So unless something unexpected happens that's when we should leave.

Hows the update coming?
