I last played my game on Thursday and my chief died. I didn't have time to find a new one, so I put the game on pause until I would. Today, I open up the game and look what I found!

I thought that the aging process what halted when you paused the game so I wonder if I pressed pause at exactly the moment when several of my villagers died.

The master farmer who seems to be standing on top of a pile of bones couldn't be selected at all. It also said that those were her remains. However, when I started the game again, she wandered away seeming to be no worse for wear after her ordeal.

I am worried now though that the sharks have a taste for my villagers!

Time travel should not effect the game if the game was paused before and after time travelling forward in time. The game should just think it was paused a week, instead of paused an hour. Time travelling backwards in time has . . . unpredictable effects, but usually not killing villagers.

I did not time play! I once did that with VV2 and I had one little girl left who was sick with hunger as everyone else died. In the end I accidentally nudged it in the wrong direction and she died. I DEFINITELY did not time play!!!

I've seen bones in odd places in VV2, but never in VV3. When the game was first re-opened, the bones were wherever the villager had died and when the timing caught up after opening, they'd pop to where the bones usually are found. Never saw a villager come back to life, though -- very strange!! Must be part of the Isola magic.
