Hello from Minnes(n)o(w)ta!

Hi all,

After clocking over 80 hours into the Alpha Sandbox, I'm finally making my trek into these forums. I live in Minnesota where, although our wolves aren't nearly as bloodthirsty, the winters are comparable to the condition-degrading environments in TLD.

A funny story that might serve as a memorable introduction: Last weekend, I was camping with a few friends and--upon an almost week-long binge with the v.215 update--I got a little too confident with my out-of-game wood-foraging abilities. It was dark, I was a bit drunk, and a hatchet was involved. Gruesome details withheld, I'm now missing a significant chuck of my left thumb and a great deal of pride.

Happy surviving!

Welcome to the forum

Ummm, you know that you don't really need to keep playing when you're actually in the real woods...

Good thing you didn't spot a bear (or a dam) :lol:

See? This is why there's no alcohol in the game.

I'm kidding, of course... But that sounds like a pretty interesting experience.

Thanks for sharing, and welcome to the forums!!
