Posted by znufrii Mar 12 '09, 09:48

Ikariam: Link please, and I've seen reference to Delta server, is that where I want to be if I play? -- nm - TWuG Mar 12, 09:57 8
- Yes, the Delta server. -- (link) - Krusty Mar 12, 09:58 6
  - Thanks. On. Town name is currentlt Polis. Username: TWuG -- nm - TWuG Mar 12, 10:04 5
    - I don't understand how we find each other. I'm on Delta but don't recognize any names on my island. -- nm - JaxSean Mar 12, 10:09 3
      - You get dropped on a random island when you start, to find everyone you need to search for their username. - Krusty Mar 12, 10:13
      - If you click "show world" you will see that there are many islands. -- nm - psilotum Mar 12, 10:13
      - With coordinates, but I also don't know what "world" is supposed to mean -- nm - con_carne Mar 12, 10:11
    - coordinates? -- nm - CQ Mar 12, 10:07
- ikariam.com, delta world -- nm - tRuMaN Mar 12, 09:58
you can play very casually which is why I like it. You can leave for 3 or 4 days and come back or just put it into vacation mode -- nm - CQ Mar 12, 09:52 3
- I've not seen where the vacay mode is? -- nm - Will Hunting Mar 12, 09:54 2
  - at the top of the screen "options" I think you have to be away for a certain amount of time though. -- nm - CQ Mar 12, 09:56 1
    - at least 48 hours, then you're activated again when you log back in -- nm - CQ Mar 12, 09:57
At first you should pay attention to your town on a regular basis as things will get done rather quickly and your town will grow rather fast. - Krusty Mar 12, 09:52 2
- Also, to allocate your workers as the town grows -- nm - con_carne Mar 12, 10:02
- I had to wait nearly 17 hours for Mel's shippment of marble to arrive. - Krusty Mar 12, 09:55
it's a cool game in that you can, if done right, can play very casually... - Mel Profit Mar 12, 09:49 17
- so in other words... - znufrii Mar 12, 09:50 16
  - hideouts. -- nm - Mel Profit Mar 12, 09:51 15
    - I have no idea what a hideout is - tRuMaN Mar 12, 09:53 6
      - Why wait? People can pillage you right now -- nm - con_carne Mar 12, 09:54
      - yes warehouse. build effin 4 of them to protect your goods. You can demolish later. - CQ Mar 12, 09:54 4
        
        So I shouldn't have been building every building I could, huh? - Krusty Mar 12, 10:00 2
        
        no no no ,that's fine now. I'm just saying right when you start a town. -- nm - CQ Mar 12, 10:04
        
        Nope...some of the buildings can wait... - Mel Profit Mar 12, 10:03
        
        I like how warehouses protect the goods....like they'd not be the first place any competent marauder would look. -- nm - Will Hunting Mar 12, 09:55
    - gotcha -- nm - znufrii Mar 12, 09:51 7
      - it's fun, challenging and can be played very leisurely. -- nm - Mel Profit Mar 12, 09:52 6
        
        hmmm...I might check it out then. -- nm - znufrii Mar 12, 09:56 5
        
        Sign up on .org :) -- nm - con_carne Mar 12, 09:58 4
        
        uh huh... - znufrii Mar 12, 09:58 3
        
        Also, quit goofing off and go save the economy -- nm - con_carne Mar 12, 10:08 1
        
        working on it. - znufrii Mar 12, 10:10
