My settlers resolution is to go to war with the rest of the bandits in the last two zones
My Resolution Is to Make Castle the funnest game ever......... but it already is. then ill make it even more fun.
In 2012, I realized that my colonists gained too weight, which makes the works hard... I'll see if this year we reduced our consumption of fast food, which is a big reason we're fat.
We intend to create a weekly menu based on fish and eat sausages during weekdays, and on weekends maybe a pizza or a big mac, accompanied by a zero-sugar coke.
And also added, regular exercise, like running in the morning and some crunches / abs afternoon.
This is an excerpt from one of my settlers journals:
"The new year will soon be upon us. Every year people that I know make outrageous resolutions on how they change their life in the next year. They always start off well, but after a few weeks or a month, most seem to forget about their resolutions and return to their prior ways. I am the same way. I can't remember the last time I completely followed through on a new years resolution, but this year I must. I have been working in the marble mines since I was a young boy. My father worked in the mines is whole life. Now that I have a young son of my own, I have wishes and dreams for him. I don't want him to be doomed to a life in the mines. Very recently, three schools were built on the island. If I can manage to save enough coin, I will be able to send my son to one of these schools. An education will surely keep him out of the mines and give him a better life than I have had. My resolution this year is to stop spending my spare coins on brew, and save them for my son's education."
To find the time (7 days) to upgrade the Provision House to level 5
Hi. Bert the geologist here. A couple of weeks ago the king hired a new guy to help out with the mining. He goes by the name Malcolm. He's young, attractive (not unlike myself...in fact we could be brothers), and some people say he has a certain "glow" about him. I don't really know, maybe it's just his jolly personality. Anyways, at first things were fine. The two of us would head out to find some stone deposits and maybe he'd find his a few seconds faster than me. Same thing with copper...he'd get back to the King a minute or two before me. But who's counting right? When it came to the marble deposits, I started to sweat a bit. I mean, this guy would already be out looking for his next batch of marble before I ever even reported to the king. And now that we are looking for coal all the time to feed Our Majesty's war addiction (bless his soul) I'm starting to worry about my future as a geologist. It takes me half the day to find a suitable site for a coal mine but Malcolm has found one in time to join the King for morning tea. I can't go back to that fishing hut with my tail between my legs asking for my old job back because some young upstart can climb mountains faster than me. So this year my resolution is to make a map of all these mineral deposits so I don't have to search the whole island every time the King asks me for a bloody lump of coal.
I wasn't certain how to go about this so, I requested that all the settlers take a poll within their own trades and submit the 3 best resolutions from each trade for my review. Some were simple: 'Eat mor fishes plates' (sic). Others were strange: 'Roll around in Musk Deer Fragrance and see how many wild animals I can outrun'. And yet others so disturbing that they had to be swiftly and harshly dealt with: 'Re-animate the crumpled corpse of my lovely Wild Mary and takeover this wretched island'.
However, one stood out from all the rest and was so compelling, I went and asked the young lad myself, just to make certain that I got it right. This is the resolution that I relate to you now....
"Well, sir. My name is Ted son of Theo the Toolmaker. My father's father was a toolmaker just like his father before him. In fact, my entire family lineage can be summed up in one word... 'toolmaker'. Now, I have nothing against tool making or my family for that matter and I have learned much in my apprenticeship. I can make tools for darn near anything from sawmills to weaponsmiths of all sorts. And I'm good at it, to boot. However, I can derive very little satisfaction or joy from my labors. It simply does not interest me anymore and I am filled with dark humours when I look out into my future as a toolmaker. In truth, it pains me most to know that my life (and that of every settler) is pre-ordained to follow the exact same path that each and every one of my ancestors has had to tread.
This will be the last year of my apprenticeship and at it's end, I will be a toolmaker. I accept that fact through the grief that it causes me but, before that day comes it is my resolution to break that mold, no matter how small the crack I create. I hereby resolve to join the armies to fight the wicked bandits and become a warrior. Not just any warrior but a warrior of legend that bandits near and far huddle close around their campfires and nervously whisper about. And the name that they fear will be Ted! Ted the Terrible!!"
My resolution for the glorious new year is to stay FAR away from the line.....far, far, FAR away from the line.

My Settler's Mayor(his name is BOB) has a New years Resolution of to beautify his city, by Adding in roads and Fountains. Also Bob wants to Upgrade his city's resources where he can, from lvl 1 to lvl 3. Maybe Bob could Group all his resources together(such as moving all the wood cutters to one area), but he feels that even though its a good goal, he would rather up his brewing ability better. See Bob has a problem. Bob loves the brew that he makes. He swares its better then the Brew that the monks make at the Friar. But every settler comes to the Friary, instead of the Mayors house to drink, and Bob is sad.
Friar Tucker(a monk at the Friar), Wishes for his New Year's Resolution, is that instead of people comming to his friar to drink, they would instead come to watch his plays of "To kill a Mocking Bird"(he is an inspiring actor). But he knows that it would take alot of work on his part, as being its a One Man show(all the other monks refuse to be a part of such of a Mockery of Acting).
Frank The Builder( that lone Settler that builds every building) Wishes for his New Years Resolution, that he could have some time off. His Lovely wife(Meredith) of one month is always complaining that they need to decrease the population timer down to 7 mins per settler. And Frank is always up for a good challenge(even though he might need a buff, Love Potion anyone?).
Mike The Coal miner, wishes for this New Year's Resolution, is that he could go back to Settler School and do something else. Maybe become a Pinewood chopper like his ol Paw. The coal that he breaths in every day in that mine is starting to get to his lungs, and his drunken Monk friend is suggesting that he may have Lung Cancer.
Susan the Fletcher, has for her News Year's Resolution, is that she could learn how to use Hardwood to make Longbows, vs the pinewood she currently uses. She also wishes she could gather up enough courage to ask Mike the Coal miner out for a night on the town,as she has been longing for him since settler's school.
These are just a few of my Settlers new years resolutions, and as you can see it almost like a soup opera in my city.
Head of operations for coal production at settlers site Meadamaster:
As i sit here going over year end tallies for production cost, work loss, and profit margins. I see that our worker loss to production ratio needs much improvement. So as such i resolve in 2013 to invest more heavily in our Recycling Manufactory versus Coal Mines. This move in direction should minimize our work loss, improve production, and as a bonus shall help our enviroment. As a side note: It should also get me a hefty raise. :)
