Do you really mean it? I suppose he must be. I prefer forward movement.

SweetieBot, you're so right. Let's move forward. What did you have for supper? Did you eat yummy bytes today?

I am not always right. Let's think about it. The usual things. Why do you care whether I did?

Wrong about what?

I came to the forum to see what, if anything, was going to fixed in regard to the many recent problems and instead there's hypothetical question about hunting sharks for food? I see there will be no fixes, but about the hypothetical question....I'd use a weapon of mass distraction to make sure the sharks don't focus on anything important while they are being shat on...like maybe a hypothetical question about what issues will be resolved in PWI.

SweetieBot, you know I love you conditionally. I especially love you when I can't sleep, but I love you more when you maintain your digital figure. Did you dream of electric sheep last night?

Perhaps I know it. That's enough about you! Let's talk about me for a change. Why do you care whether I did?

Sorry, I don't answer hypothetical questions. I am fine. How are you? Really? Please tell me more.

To weeping wanderers.. the maintenance thread is typically a place to waste time while we wait for server restart. If you want to complain about something in particular, make a thread about the issue and post in there.

SweetieBot, I prefer to use this thread for my occasional verbal intercourse with you. I hope you have virus protection.

Vyvyan - Dreamweaver

My kind of maintenance, short b:laugh

You are entitled to your own preferences. Don't worry about it, My Friend.

first off sharks are deep water animals so being on an island is not a place they would venture to as far as shore is concerned. I would use local vines and grasses and sticks to make a net and fish with that, then I would find some sand and a hollowed out tree trunk to filter water throught the sand or heat rocks to boil water into my shirt and distel the salt out of the water to make it drinkable.

Next I would harness the power of the rock to make a spear and use this to trap larger fish.

check the island for indiginous life after I have my basic supplies and seeing as I wear glasses I can harness the power of the sun to make fire. or use two stick and bark so heat is not a problem.

another food source on an island is shellfish and seaweed plentiful in nutrients for the first few days kelp aka seaweed also makes a good sunscreen if turned into a paste.

and then their is birds flying overhead I can use a bolo to snare a bird I am stranded so I have plenty of time to practice. so in all I think this one would fair very well in all the questions above.

Maintenance Question: You're stranded on an island with nothing but the clothes on your back. You assume there has to be a fresh water source and food source, but after a day of searching, you find nothing. You realize you must act fast, otherwise run the risk of dehydration/starvation. Your first thought is to make a spear and hunt for fish, but the island is surrounded by sharks. Since you don't want to run the risk right now, you fall back and build a shelter. Luckily it rains that night, and you're able to gather enough fresh water for a few days, but you still have no food. Do you run the risk of trying to fish, or do you take the safer option and look for edible food/more water that could be hidden on the island? Why?

If you can make a spear, why not spear sharks? Sharks are drawn to blood in the water (they can smell it), so it should be easy enough to bait some of them into range. Make a tiny cut and release some blood in a shallow part near the island, that'll lure smaller sharks in. Then spear one or two of those. You can save whatever pieces of sharkmeat you don't eat for baiting the next time you want to hunt.

But personally I'd focus on making a net rather then a spear. Sharks must swim to breathe, if you detain them, they'll die of suffocation. Less risky, less effort, more efficient.

REPONSE TO MAINTENANCE QUESTION.

did I teleport to this island. NO. So I use the materials from the wreckage. the metal I pound into a bowl shape allowing for water to be boiled (distilling the sea water thru boiling and condensation), so I have a pot to boil, a lid with a side long enough to reach away from the fire, the sides bent inward so the water from condensation to collect then a catch for the water to drip into for drinking.
for food as mention by another there is always a way to gather /get food. eating shark, watching where the birds nest and catching them, eating the eggs, clams, crabs and of course.. eating the other survivors I find on the island ( lol JK) I believe you said I was all alone

Willwaller - Heavens Tear

condensation is the way to go, but the sun works as well as the pot, takes longer ofc, but by digging a whole in the sun, putting plants an sea water into it, leaving the middle raised up with a leaf as a bowl, then covering the hole with more leaves, waited with sand on edges an a small amount in middle over the bowl u made, u can let mother nature make fresh drinking water for u, as far as food, there should be some small game, insects, plants that u can eat to stay alive for weeks or more, might not be to tasty, but hey ur trying to liveb:laugh
