Um yeah, that wasn't at all clear! I thought the "(North)" was indicating where to look for the duplicated outcome. The [code] tags should be used for a reason. I could fix it in hindsight, but I won't, because of that, and because it would complicate things for other players too. It's unfortunate, but it is your fault. To whom?
Maybe. You'd be starting a bit late, though, as to be up to par with the leading players you'd have to go through all previous posts. This should be easily doable when you tackle it properly, but if you have no experience with the genre, that might be difficult. In any case I'll try to remember to contact you when I host a second game, but this one will probably take a while still, so if you want to try you can join! Not all players are flawless, just look at what luckycordel pointed out... (it's fine, willies!) If you want to join, just type a GO command. You can also join without reading through all previous posts, but then you will have less knowledge than the top players.
Code: You were intending to move North, but found the world border. You are still where you were. Code: You are in a plain, with nothing around but grass. Code: You are in a snow biome. Code: You found a river. You drown. You're back at spawn. Almost missed it again, because of the issue mentioned. Code: You found a tree and chop it down. You now have 1 piece of wood.
Code: You enter a snow biome. Nothing to gather right here, though. Code: You are in a snow biome. Code: You are in a plain, with nothing around but grass.
