Easter Eggs!

Ok Glitchians (is that our technical race name?) - I'm sure many of you are aware of the festival known as Easter where we eat lots of chocolate, chase rabbits - oh and there some religious stuff i think thrown in for good measure.

I had an idea - why dont we try and fill the great hole of IX with as many eggs as possible in celebration of Easter? serves the following purposes

1) must test the games resilience to all those animals, glitchians and eggs in one place
2) I think it would look cool!!

Comments welcome and Happy Mothering Sunday to all you Mothers out there.

  • Great idea! Except, I don't think you can actually throw things down the hole. We could fall down the hole ourselves and then place eggs at the bottom of it, but that's not as much fun as throwing eggs down the hole. :)

  • I was actually just thinking of putting them at ground level at the IX hole - not dropping - I suggested this location because its a hole and its in IX

  • oooh yes yes yes! We definitely should organize an easter egg hunt around groddle meadow or something. and this too.

  • The tricky part with that will be keeping uninvolved people from picking them up.  They could all be gone before the hunt starts.

  • gnomes. garden gnomes. and notes. Of course, that won't prevent everyone, but at least the oblivious ones. Plus I'll spread the word via Help Channel, and patrol the area for non-egg hunters.

  • Far be it from me to hijack the thread I started back but....I'm going to stick with the original idea.  After a bit of IM discussion i'm going to see how many seasoned eggs I can get into the Great hole and establish a livestock version of the communal Gardens.  That way, there will be something of benefit for everyone once easter has gone.  I love the communal garden idea and was a little upset to go back to them during the test to find lots of empty patches.  Its a (little) bit harder to take chickens and pigs so if I can get enough in there and start spreading the fecundity powder we should have something magical.

    And remember, A livestock Garden is for life......not just for Easter.

  • Well Misha - thats why i'm prepared to go solo and do it myself if need be.  Mainly because its a fun thing to do and I love the idea plus I get to learn some extra skills - but also it might just leave a legacy behind.  I'm also thinking of moving the idea from the IX hole to one of the communal gardens as its the perfect place to have all your food needs together.

    From what I gather - i'm going to need Animal Husbandry so i've got a couple more levels of Animal Kinship before I get there.  Whislt i'm learning of course i've got chance to earn more to buy more eggs in preparation so it should balance out nicely.  I'm also able to make powders to again should help a bit.  If anyone would like to help by planting corn to feed the little darlings when I get going then please feel free but also if you can work wonders with eggs then you'll be very welcome too.

    Will keep updated as the idea "incubates"....................see what i did there???
