A new player to Tale in the Desert, I've enjoyed my first day! 12+ hours of work have resulted in reaching Level 2 and completing the Initiation for Architecture. My compound has a True Kiln, a storage box and a Carpenter's Shop, which I discovered I can't get blades for yet :) I even managed to help out the larger community efforts a little bit, hauling boards and donating Flint.
I don't understand everything that went on today, but I think our region, Shabbat Ab, did fairly well in unlocking technologies and getting things set up.

A productive and challenging first week. Made it to Level Four and have my compound nicely outfitted with a Sheep Pen and Dromedary Pen. Built a Guild Hall for what I hope will become a New Players Guild, The Eye of Horus. My goal for the next few days is to finish the Initiations for Thought, Harmony and Art & Music and collect Straw to see if I can get a camel. I think the next skill I will attempt is cooking, as I finally traded for all the needed seeds. The Universities kept giving me Onions!

The last few days have been busy. My sheep pen was up to 5 breeding pairs, so I have been able to begin slaughtering and finally getting some leather and oil. Plans are underway for a second pen. The Dromedary Pen looks cool, but I will probably never get a camel due to the massive amounts of straw needed. I put some in every day though and it's now up to 2K, so perhaps some day.
Like most everyone else, I passed the first stage of the Acrobat test. I've taught 29 facets so far, and learned a number of others. Got my Cooking skill as planned and got a kitchen and firepit set up so I could grill some food and gather some vegetable juice for the Thought Initiation. My first 2 Apiaries are up and humming as well. No luck dowsing anywhere yet though. I took lessons for Mining and Chariot Repair and taught a couple myself.
Got in on my first dig last night and got 7 stones in the distribution, then WHAM!, a possible 30 minute server rollback as I was logging out for the night. Hope they are still there, or we'll get to do that all over again.
