The Castle Doctrine Forums

I remember reading it in a faq looking for the answer to some other question.

But Jason has stated several times that you're supposed to be able to lose everything while not at the computer, part of the concept is to make you worry.

But Drakol, I don't care about how high I get on the fortune 500 list, as said I don't think I have been over 10k, but I am having fun with the game as a reverse dungeon crawl, for better and worse. Sometimes I get ripped off and sometimes I kill people in spades. But I believe that gullible people mostly try to rob low houses, what is bad about low houses getting an influx of money if their design is good? Once your house goes over a certain value, people start coming in with hordes of tools, it's no longer the starter lives that die in your house. 50 might help the top game but it's too low for the low game, where I am comfortably placed.

But it also builds it slower while you are at the game. I rob once in a while but I prefer building a nice deathhouse and waiting for the robbers to kill themselves. So far I have not been over 10k in value, I believe, but I enjoy the game like this. 50 bucks per death is not luring the robbers like 200 is and is not giving me money for expansions very fast. I liked 200, I can understand if it needs to go down abit, but I think 50 is too low.

That sound like a great idea colorfusion. Something like if they have tried to enter during robbery, once the robbery is posted to tape list the owner gets a message and the house has 10 seconds 'hiatus' from the list so they have time to enter.

Oh yeah I meant it to be for everybody, but the reason it is needed is the new amount of players after the steam release.

I still have not robbed a single house, been playing since a week or so before steam release. Having fun though!

Damn man, I read this whole thing, interested and empathetic but for some reason, after reading the whole thing, after everything intense was over and done, I got teary for a few seconds.
Well written and thank you for sharing man. Loving your game.

I had a similar thing happen where my visitor even made the choice with a dog in the tile behind him. I have looked at the tape again and again and from the hallway there are no differences to the corridors and since there is a dog behind you you can't open different doors to check out how the corridors look behind it...

Edit: Dougles Edward Nichols did it on mine, his first entrance to my house and he walked directly to the correct door, no tools used. Even if you drug my pitbull you still have to choose the correct door in the first try as a panic button will close a door behind the door that leads to the correct corridor (not relevant for the 'mysterious' break-in since he did it with the dog on his tail, just liked that feature of my very simple lowcost build ). His house is no longer in the list, but have anyone else had a 'suspicious' break-in by this user?
