Serious Routes

Tired of loading home street after home street for only a handful of disorganized resources? Are you spending more time searching for those few trees you're after than you are actually harvesting them? If you're serious about gathering resources, Serious Routes are for you.

Serious Routes mandate a minimum of 12 units of the route type, and most of our members have the maximum possible (e.g. 15 for trees). This means less loading, less searching, and more harvesting. Simply put, you get more, faster.

We are currently accepting members to all routes listed on the site. Our tree routes use the top sign and our other routes use the bottom, so as to allow members to also participate in the corresponding HRR routes (which use the opposite). If you're interested in joining a route, please contact the route's curator.

And if you're interested in curating, joining, or just using a Serious Route that doesn't exist yet, let us know!

edit: You can find the new Serious Routes thread here: http://www.glitch.com/forum/offtopic/23804/

  • I'm curious.  What are  you all doing with all these resources?  Using them to make things?  Selling  --to toy vendor or auctions?  Why would someone buy these resources on auctions when they are so easily available?

    And kudos, thanks and praise to all of you who have built these routes.  What a wonderful contribution to the glitch community.  I wonder if Tiny Speck ever foresaw this happening.

  • Lots of people collect resources to make mass batches of things. 1000 Tasty pastas = 3000 required spice. Or, lots of people DO sell them at auctions because other people don't want to waste their time, or don't have to, to collect the "easily available" resources. It's more about time. 

    It's really about game play style, everyone's is different, and this accommodates a lot of different players.

  • I would love to join the Serious Metal Route.  I have 12 metal rocks right now, but I plan to add more once the other features on my street run out.

  • Does anyone know why Lx has been deleted? :(

    Wow, that is ... unexpected.  Do you think his/her account might have been hacked?  Lx was at the top of the leaderboards.

  • FYI, SRS metal is about to happen. Prior to Lx being banhammered, he accepted my application to curate.
    This will happen in the next 24-48 hours.
    Route sequence will happen in this thread.

  • For now, the routes will continue!!! 

    All curators please make sure you let me know when you add someone so I can let Lx know to update the site.

  • Does anyone know what Lx did?  He developed the Serious Routes.  Was this why he was deleted?  I think we should know why he was deleted.  What could he have done that was so wrong.  He contributed so much to the game.  Is there a court of appeal for him?  Can he do something like community service to be reinstated?

  • I can only speak for myself and say if I had messed up so badly that my account was deleted, I wouldn't want anyone to know why.  I never had a bad experience with Lx and I wish them well, but as jarring as it is to find out that someone's been booted I don't think that we're entitled to know why, no matter how much we'd like to understand.

  • Hello- account issues/status are confidential between TS and any player so affected. The forum is not a place to discuss account status for anyone, so please keep that in mind.

    Thank you

  • Agree with Sloppy.

    Tiny Speck's policy on matters such as these is to preserve the privacy of both the individual and themselves. It's a good policy.

  • I was thinking about joining the fruit route, but wanted to make sure it's still accepting members before I bulldoze my front yard. XD

    Just let me know, and I'll get to work and reply when it's ready!

    EDIT to add:
    I spoke with Darius Atrepes, and am all set to join. Glad to be a part of something so serious! XD

  • Can't wait to be on the Serious Metal Route!
    I have 16 Metal Rocks in my street and I should be able to add another one, maybe two.
    If anyone is after Metal, come see me :D

    Edit: 17 Metal Rocks :D

  • For serious, I have my street all set up with 15 serious bubble trees, and my top sign seriously points to KitKatty. May I be added to Serious Bubbles please? Seriously?

  • <re-edited>
    This has been x-posted to the SRS group; but SRS Metal is about to be open for business.
    The route order is:
    Me (crashtestpilot)
    Jurkowski
    Xombiekitty
    Katniss Mockingjay 
    Dulcinea
    Riddel
    riscy 

    Let's get this set up.
    In accordance with Lx's architecture, we use bottom signs for this.
    Posted 6 months ago by CrashTestPilot Subscriber! | Permalink
  • DM! I'll seriously add you to the serious sign post once I seriously get into the game again!

  • I got 14 fruit trees. Ready to join the fruit route. Add me please!

  • Hi -   Can I be added to the sparkly route please?
    xxxxxxxxxxx

    Posted 6 months ago by Amelia-Fae Subscriber! | Permalink
  • just redone my front yard with metal rocks only (well, plus 2 jellisacs), then ran out of iMG - more to put yet. 13 metal so far - room for 2 maybe 3 more when I get more iMG (which will be very soon).

    Please add me to the metal route - ta.

  • @Riscy - Please point your sign to me, and check out the SRS Metal section of the SRS Routes Group.
    Posted 6 months ago by CrashTestPilot Subscriber! | Permalink
  • @crashtestpilot - done, just need to put a sign beside saying you are SRS Metal section of the SRS Routes Group.
    Posted 6 months ago by riscy Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Will we see our names added to the Serious Routes website soon?  I wanted to ask because I just now finished maxing out the number of metal rocks on my street.   ★
    Posted 6 months ago by Riddel Subscriber! | Permalink
  • I'm pretty interested in being part of the Serious Jellisac Route.  I've left a message with Helvete's butler (Helvete's the curator), but I might as well leave a note here, too.  As soon as I know who to add to my bottom sign, it should all be good.

    I have 12 jellisac mounds (a total of 36 growths), and just enough peat bogs to still qualify for HRR's PB&J Route.

  • I don't know how closely Tis is monitoring and coordinating updates of seriousroutes.com with respect to metal, but I also don't think that the route is all stitched together yet.  Patience!  We should have all the signs pointing the right way by tonight or tomorrow.  Then I can bug Tis with the complete list.
    Posted 6 months ago by CrashTestPilot Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Alright, I have to move things around for a badge anyone so I'm thinking I could replace everything with peat.

    Is there still interest? We need at least one other person.

  • I'm interested in joining the bean route. I have 15 bean trees on my street. I've been trying to contact wuilyl, but I haven't heard back from them yet.

  •  In keeping with the spirit of what Lx started with the Serious Routes, I would hope players that are interested would consider joining the SRS: Serious Route group. "I think (and this is just my personal opinion) that we first ensure that the existing routes are maintained and added to in a way that fits Lx's vision; same standards, same architecture, massive resources." per Crashtestpilot    
    The SRS: Serious Route group is currently in the developmental stages. Some of the curators have started their own discussion thread in which you may post if you are interested in joining their route. Also, if you notice problems with the route please post those there so they can be addressed by the curator. I'm sure the other curators will be getting their discussion started soon. 
    The idea of this thread in the forums is great. Looking ahead, when new players start to come into the game, the thread may start to become tedious for all to read through. With the group, new players will have a specific discussion to go to if they are interested in joining a route. We should still have seriousroutes.com as the list of all routes and who is on them. 
    If anyone is maxed out on groups and would like to join please send me a message or post here and someone will be able to invite you. 
    As the game does open to new players...I think we should let them know about the SeriousRoutes
