OMG Paranoia and panic setting in!

I've had maybe a dozen houses so far but keep dying from exploring other peoples houses or even from accidently misplacing a trap and dying on self-test.
Once my house amount hit 2k I got quite nervous and had to spend it. Now it keeps going up and its really having an impact on me.
Is my house good enough?
Should I rearrange it?
Should I change X trap for Y trap?
Maybe I should rebuild it?
What if I got out for a few hours to do some shopping, someone might clear me out!
The more $ I have the more equipped people will be. If I have to self-test with no tools then its possible for someone with no tools to complete it... let alone armed with a crapload of tools.
LOL!!!!

(how to know you have done a good job on a game)

Anyone else having the same fears?


If I vanish it's not due to a burglar shooting me as well as my wife while making his way to the vault....
I'm just a burst player.

Re: OMG Paranoia and panic setting in!

I go through that same cycle whenever my house starts to do well....

10 min after last playing:
"Hmm, I wonder if anyone's died in my house yet.... I could really use that money to increase my defenses.  Wait, but if someone died, that would make my house value increase, which would make more people likely to rob it, and it just keeps on rising and rising until one of the top players spends millions on tools and OH NO MY HOUSE IS PROBABLY COMPLETELY DESTROYED BY NOW!!!!!!!!!"
*Checks house*
*Repeat*

The biggest thing that Castle Doctrine has taught me is that the price of your house is proportional to the stupidity of the mistake that kills you.

Re: OMG Paranoia and panic setting in!

LOL thats it exactly. Altho was gutted that someone ran right through my whole house perfectly and didn't even need their tools. pure luck. No one had made it halfway before let alone scouted the whole thing.

Re: OMG Paranoia and panic setting in!

Made sure I won't go die a stupid death in someone else's house by accidentally converting my big tool stash to cash.

On that note, put a confirm on the backpack's done button when changes have been made?
