Wellness Wednesday for March 29, 2023

The Wednesday Wellness threads are meant to encourage users to ask for and provide advice and motivation to improve their lives. It isn't intended as a 'containment thread' and any content which could go here could instead be posted in its own thread. You could post:

  • Requests for advice and / or encouragement. On basically any topic and for any scale of problem.

  • Updates to let us know how you are doing. This provides valuable feedback on past advice / encouragement and will hopefully make people feel a little more motivated to follow through. If you want to be reminded to post your update, see the post titled 'update reminders', below.

  • Advice. This can be in response to a request for advice or just something that you think could be generally useful for many people here.

  • Encouragement. Probably best directed at specific users, but if you feel like just encouraging people in general I don't think anyone is going to object. I don't think I really need to say this, but just to be clear; encouragement should have a generally positive tone and not shame people (if people feel that shame might be an effective tool for motivating people, please discuss this so we can form a group consensus on how to use it rather than just trying it).

Played it with my group before it dissolved due to kids. It was OK. Somewhat too grindy. We never made it far. I found it pretty, nice, but also a little too boring for my taste.

Fair! I actually love the grind for resources, I find it incredibly relaxing for some reason. Maybe you just didn't have enough grinders in your group.

Oh, we had a division of labor with two resource grinders and crafters. I focused on exploration. The fourth player, IIRC, mostly did hunting and cooking.

It was alright, but require more endurance in coordination and planning than we were regularly capable of.
