The best location... that would be having an entire island to yourself. Its a little boring though... but you get to claim it all. :twisted:

Very hard to claim an entire island alone, as you have no means of effectively guarding your borders.

And a tyrannic dictatorship for a government. I like freedom of speech and opinion, I do.

But there is no use to guard your borders as there is no one to guard it from... for the time being, anyways. :lol:

But the point is you are only king so long as there is no one else there, so are you really king at all? You just happen to be the sole resident, and have no enforceable claim to the land.

O Solitude! where are the charms
That sages have seen in thy face?
Better dwell in the midst of alarms
Than reign in this horrible place.

No newspawn could take it away from you, especially if you have plenty of healing foods and iron shields and sabres, plus if you build a building in each location and place locks on it. I say you have a good advantage and over anyone trying to take it from you. You would just need to keep checks on the lands everynow and then. But yeah, it is pretty borring and almost pointless... just more so rather something to do since you are the only person on the entire island.

What if it was an island with...
only ONE location :D

Wouldn't that be wierd, eh?
I wonder if there are any...

An island with one location in the middle of nowhere with all the resources it would need to sustain itself... hematite, limestone, coal, wood, stone, carrots, onions

It would be kinda neat to build a stronghold on such a place... and then there could be wars over this little powerhouse :lol:

You must be joking. The strongest healing food? At least used to be.

Healing, in case of attack? Or some other healing food. Not the most important, but It'd be nice.

I always thought popcorn was the strongest. But onions are pretty good to.

I'd say if there was an island with only one location, it shouldn't have everything you need... maybe some food, and that's it. That's what you're more likely to find IRL anyway. Or just a bunch of sand.

Sand, coconuts, and cod...maybe some stone. And a couple of animals like toucans and boars. Then you could maroon someone on it, it'd be fun! :D
