[Njerpezit proceeds to stab the hunter in the face, who then collapses in a pool of blood]
N: It's called Sommeloker.

Maybe for footwear there should be a new quality type, or rather rigidity, durability factor,...

To elaborate, footwear could deteriorate at a constant rate for each "step" you take. Better "quality" footwear would take far longer to go down on the scale. But also different materials would affect this rate, for instance using one would take longer to deteriorate than using another of the same starting quality.

For this, the quality levels could go, for instance, from best to worst: durable, dependable, (no tag), basic, shambles/wrecked

As for why you would want to have better footwear, maybe having durable would just take longer to degrade, but having lowest quality ones would make you go slower (same as would having no shoes, but you could maybe have a chance to get a cut if walking barefoot on certain type of terrain?).

Just my two squirrel hide cents.

Snakes. Why'd it have to be snakes?

"It says here you have a broken left arm, shattered left knee and a broken right femur."
[turns over paper]
"Also some rib damage and a concussion. Mr. Maaranen, how did this happen?"
"I went skiing and didn't fall on my right arm."

Hmm, yes, the diagnosis is correct, this should affect your DEX.

Get well soon. You got knocked down but you get back up.

Just two world records? Man, are you guys even trying? But anyway, huge respect and congratulations.

(also, it seems me and Erkka have the same taste for T-shirts. Gotta love that shrapnel damage style)

Well, let's see how this measures up to the development of URW:

- punt, paddle and serv... companions; Check
- being woken up by strange sounds; Check
- feathers, eggs and bird meat; Check
- archery, and a favorite phobia of yore; Check
- err... rituals, I guess; Check
- a fistful of "I missed that deer again"; Check

Yep, still on track.

"Steam trading cards" sound like something you have to trade your Elk fur coat for so they let you into that village sauna.
