I have made a couple houses in the wild for free on smp1. I'm planning on make self-dependent villages which involves growing food, trading with villagers, and mining to build more homes n stuff. Once i have a decent village made and 100k rupees I'm going to rent out my res and retire in the wild. Any contribution would help me make the wild an easier place to live. What i really need is axe's, oak wood logs, acacia wood logs, birch planks, and torches.. sooo yeah haha
So I'm a little obsessed with horsies... sue me! To stay on topic, kilmannan and I have done much the same thing on smp5, and are just waiting for wild land protections to open up the place for visitors! I love the wild community idea!

As of right now it has one weird sugercane farm (5 1/2 stacks), 2 Wheat farms, 2 Carrot farms, 2 animal farms (each have mushroom cows), a tree farm, and a Dog farm. I built a road to an abandoned iron farm, mob grinder, and a castle that I'm going to convert to storage. All I really need is fences and obsidian, I've been chopping a lot of trees lately.
