Everyday Systems

I've been posting daily updates over on the No S forums for a week now, and thought I'd share some of the routines that have made Shovelglove so much fun in the mornings. In keeping with the scenarios on the Shovelglove page, these are designed to put you in the role of village hero, bravely swinging your sledge for the betterment of your fellow residents.

The first two scenarios are more or less straight from the original scenarios:
* Preparing the Defenses
* Defending the Walls

After a week of shoring up the village defenses, though, word started to spread that the village is a safer place to live, and more people began arriving. More housing was needed, so I present "Building the Village":

* Chop Trees x20 (clearing away the forest)
* Hoe/Broom x20 (leveling the ground)
* Shovel x20 (dig the foundation)
* Drive Posts x10 (framing the building)
* Squats x10 (lifting the thatching to the roof in bundles)
* Tuck Bales x10 (tucking in the thatching)
* Hoist Sack x10 (hammering up the walls)
* Flip Level x10 (painting / whitewashing the walls)
* Stoke Oven x20

So there you have it - the village has a new home to accommodate some additional villagers!

Can you really get all that done (left and right) in 14 minutes?

Hi Mike, I usually get through and into the first 1 or 2 movements of a second cycle in 14 minutes.

Getting it done within 14 minutes is not that much difficult but needs a lot of practice to be done.

Great routine. I have one question though -- what is the exact movement for hoeing/sweeping? For whatever reason I can't envision it based on the description in the "movements" section of the forum.
