Making money from art is not vulgar. Art is a commodity. It makes people feel something. It raises the greater sum of human happiness. It increases the gaiety of the nation. It has a value. -John Allison

I have two characters, both at level 2. It is telling me that I used up all 160 hits for the day, despite only using about 20-30 AP each since I woke up. And I wasn't playing last night. Huh.

Many things use up hits without using AP. Also, if other folks log in on your computer or through your connection, that can hose you. Lastly, there is some arcane deal where you may not be getting a unique IP address or something like that, but I know basically nothing about that stuff.

If you see Nabubrush wandering around Malton, say hi. (Also Tom Paine, Andrew Pelf Jr, Plug, Crelm, or Crunk Garble.)

So how's everyone doing?  Are you enjoying the game?  Did you get bored?

Currently, I'm in a factory in Ruddlebank stocking up on generators and fuel cans.  I'm working on "Light up the Wyke!", an effort to put a working generator in every building of Wykewood.  Mostly this will involve searching factories for generators and fuel cans and convincing others in my group, Josephine's Generals, to do the same.  Once you hit level 41 (every skill but brain rot), you have to kind of make up your own silly games to keep it fun.  It becomes a game of how many people can you get doing the same thing at the same time.

On that front, I think Acheheads are a sufficiently dedicated group to do some really wacky things in unison.  It would be fun to spray paint dialogue from strips on every block of a neighborhood.  Stuff like that.  Once we have enough people at a high enough level to take care of themselves, we might consider forging our own group.  Meanwhile, I really recommend Wykewood as a safe neighborhood, and Josephine's Generals as a bang up group of warm bodies.

Sounds like a plan.  I (Peter Cropes) am headed your way.

LadyEleanor is already in Wykewood, trying to help save a police department under siege.  She just got advanced pistol training, and is ready to kick some ass.

It might not be a bad idea to have everyone post links to their profile(s) and everyone can add them to their contact list.

As soon as I'm able to gain enough XP (should be another day or so) I'm going to get the construction skill -- then we can get ourselves a clubhouse, no zeds allowed. 

After that, well, it's anyone's guess. 

PS: I posted a link to my profile in a previous message, but here it is again.  It is a good idea to have people you know in your contacts so you can recognize them in a crowd or a pile of dead bodies.

I kill zombies whenever I can.  It keeps my fire ax from getting rusty.

J Roberts is dead, and is somewhere in... I think Mornington?

Silke Sen is on her way to Wykewood.
Update, as of 30 seconds later: She is about to be dead, because I couldn't find a place that wasn't Extremely Heavily barricaded.

Don't be surprised by PKing. After you have 41 levels and 5000 exp, there isn't much else to do.

A'ight, I'm on my why to Wykewood as Terry Chambers. I have Free Running so should hopefully not die on the way.
