Thanks anything else I need to do before I resign from NEW?

By this worksheet, we have negative 11 chickens

Hey, folks.
My time in NEW is done, and I've gone on a few after-reboot raids with Bithmus and others. I'd like to join GIL. I have a lot going on IRL so my schedule is a little unpredictable. I was busy trying to train up a bunch of skills (though I could only get lockpicking to 95, so if anyone needs help unlocking Hoard chests I'd be glad to come along to train it higher.) So I haven't been chasing down hunts, but I'd like to join more now if schedules permit.

I'm pretty self-sufficient at this point. NEW and some in GIL have given me plenty to get rolling so I don't need anything else, but I can contribute resources and things.

Bithmus and friends took me to the Abyss, where I've never been, and I was one round away from surviving Medusa. That was fun.

More about my play style - I don't enjoy PvP, mostly crafting and PvM.  I understand there are some PKs running around and there's nothing wrong with people who want to play that way, it's just not me. I do like helping people and just chatting. I'll turn nine years old next month (you know how they measure a horse's height in "hands?" I measure my age in "dog-years") and I just don't have the energy to get caught up in drama, and if I ever inadvertently cause any just let me know, and I'll bend over backwards to fix it.

I'm saving up gold for a house. I have over a plat on ATL. I know I could swap some for a few million on Siege and I'm really torn about it. I want to have a house - who doesn't? - but I also like the idea of starting from scratch like I did back on GL when I thought a character with 14 stats at 50 each was the way to go. Honestly, the "one toon per account" is something I like less than running into the occasional PK. But I guess that's what EJ alts are for. But I'm up to about 100k after a few days, so I'll get there. My favorite classic house is the Tower, but I guess the custom houses are better.

Anyway, I'd appreciate it if you'd keep me in mind if you run across a good spot for a 18x18, or you hear of someone selling a big house. I may post something on #Trade in a couple of days when I'm closers to being ready.

You'll sometimes see me online as early as 6 or 7AM EST, but I'm mostly only half-paying attention as I work from home until 5pm-ish.  I can get away with some attended macroing using the Enhanced client system (no third-party cheats) and maybe some short chats but that's about it until after 6 or 7PM, with a break at 9 to lock up the chickens.

Hi, I'm Kaimo. (Flint on Discord)
Only been on Siege a couple of days, the people I've met in NEW seem pretty cool, and I'm looking forward to starting my UO journey all over again, though maybe not with the same obsessive frenzy as when I first started, back before Necro was a skill. I'm older, obviously, and we moved from the 'burbs onto 5 acres in Amish country in Ohio. We love it here, except I probably got too many birds. We have a rooster, ten hens, eleven ducks and an accidental Guinea hen. When they start laying eggs in the next few weeks we're going to be buried in eggs.

Played on a few free shards, but what drama... Played DAOC for a few years, and got level 50s of every class in every realm.

Came back to UO a couple of years ago and ported from Great Lakes to Atlantic, like almost everyone else. All my friends are gone, and haven't made any on ATL, but I can already see that this shard of heartless killers is pretty welcoming and friendly. I think I'll stick around awhile.
