New Years Resolution Contest

[meesherbeans01]

Bob the Settler sighed happily and sat back in his pine wood chair. It was a lovely night with a bright moon amongst twinkling stars in the sky. Their Christmas dinner had been perfectly cooked, and now the children were playing with their new toys in the main room. It was the last day of the year. He thought back over the previous year, with bizarre Rabbids and scary Grim Reaper generals, and was thankful his little Settler family made it through intact.

Who knew what the coming year would bring? He looked to the roaring fire and smiled. It could be whatever he made it to be! It was time to make a resolution, something to strive for in the coming year. Bob pondered what he should promise himself for quite some time, the crackle of flames making him sleepy. After almost succumbing to the siren call of sleep, what he should do that year hit him! He resolved to build a second silo before the coming harvest. It would make what was an easier winter this year even better the next! Mind made up, he slouched in his chair and dozed off.

The end of the year is here, and so is the time for making resolutions! Some of us will resolve to lose weight, or be nicer, or get that promotion...but what about our little Settlers? They must have ambitions and hopes for the coming new year as well! For this contest, we ask that you share what your Settlers are resolving to do in the coming 2013 year. It can be a simple sentence, a journal entry, or story; as long as it's fun, we can't wait to read it!

For a year now I have been trying to get my trainers to train hard enough to produce more than 25 of any troop, but alas, he has never succeeded. My resolution is to get my trainer to train hard enough to produce say 50 recruits at once, instead of 25!

Rumor around my island is that the more popular New Years Resolution is for everyone to be safe and start using the walking paths that way they will stop stepping in deer dung...cause there is A LOT of wildlife on the island and lets face it, it is much harder to see unless your on the paths!

That the settlers will actually go home and live in these fancy residents I built for them occasionally.
