Why don't you add a Hp system? a non-lethal combat?(...) Players with more HP and a lot of tools used as weapons would win.
A different combat system? Some honour to the fights?

Why do you keep pushing the subject of Hp system and combat into the table, he just wont do it, he has already talked about the matter a couple times already, and its probably for the best anyways, this game aint about generic combat systems, for that you got PLENTY of games to choose from, games that could be better suited to your likings... than just a modified version of OHOL for combat purposes.

Pein's idea of a hitpoint system is leagues beyond what Jason has done before.  There's no reason for him to stop talking in light of that.

Sure, there exist other games with them.  They are leagues better in terms of combat.

Wow, that's quite a tale.

Looks like they're still alive and kicking:

eyy, i was just running family, the first forty minutes of my life were nice

then ya'll got a flock of greifers having a gd greifing murder posse party

you have passed the game without doing anything!

I believe this would be very good idea. It would also help people notice earlier if something is going on, like if someone is stabbed and they shout in middle of town so that everyone hears you, it would make it easier to track down escaping griefer with bow or knife.
Whisper also good if you need to give inherit for someone you trust, but don't want others to follow, you would be able to whisper to them your intentions without anyone noticing that you are going to drop the valuables to someone else.

Although, I think when it comes for inheriting as well, I think elderly should be able to switch their valuable bag to someone (adult, not just kids) with empty bag or empty back to fill in the newer character. It would be sort of a way of "bonding" with others before inevitable death. It's just a minor thing and would probably help when it comes for thieves.

Well regen has been nerfed to effective nothingness (one bowl per hour), so you lose effectively nothing by putting a pump on it.

You want at least two pumps close to each other, so that when you light one and it finishes pumping, you can take the first bucket out of the newly pumped well and put it in the other one to give it a full boiler. That way you never accidentally get deadlocked where you need a bucket of water to fill the boiler but you need to fill the boiler to get a bucket of water.

Last game was running late into the night. I was born into a Belltown. This was like the 10th time I have been in this town and knew how the town worked. Check out the place and 2 out of the 3 berries fields where dying. There was no more compost, all the bowls were filled with stuff that's hard to empty and now there was a bear attacking the town. Well, I know the sound of the tune and did not want to be about of it. so I grab a hose and just dip out. Lost the first kid while traveling and the second kid (being born in the jungle around mosquitoes, well sorry kid) when I was about 1K out from the town I found a road. Just a road going north-south in-between two green bioms. Had a third kid and was well this place is better than nothing. Started securing some food and reeds in the south side. Then I checked out the north and found a dead town. sheep where intact, food was ready. I was like score! move the kids into town and started up the system. put the kids to work and teach them the 3 main jobs. No one knows how to compost and it the most import job.  so though them how to do that and notice that the Newtown well was dry and started to get that going but one of my dumb kid pick the last buck out of the deep well and started to water the berrys. when someone says stop! plz stop. I had to go find more water. found some filled the bucket by a bowl and right before I was able to fill the Newtown well I died at 57. I hope those kids made it.

A good baker is a godsend, they will not only produce mutton and carrot pies but bread, buttered bread, carrot, berry, carrot & berry, carrot rabbit, berry carrot, carrot berry and rabbit pies, cooked mutton making it a major yum station!

I disagree with you. I think carrots/berries pies are an HUGE waste if you are in an advanced town with a pen. Only time id consider a berry/carrot pie is if there is no meat available.
Mutton pie gives 15 food per part.
Berry carrot pie gives 15 food per part.
So the only advantage of the berry carrot pie is the Yum bonus.

But, if, instead of using your bowl of berries and carrots on a crust, you use it on a lamb, and then butcher the sheep, you get 4 meat and you can literally make 4 mutton pies instead. And as a bonus, you just generated a sheep dung which is very usefull for other tasks.

TLDR: In advanced towns, berries/carrots should never go into pies. Mutton meat should go into pies.
