I started a new game in vv1. And I have 2 of everything. My villagers are in thier late 50's and I have a couple of young ones. I haven't had a death until I turned the game back on after being on vv2 over night. Well I have been waiting for the villagers to bury him, None had. So I picked the villagers one by one and put them on the deceased villager. Everytime I did the villagers ALL would say they improved at healing. They were healing the bones. Now that is so bizzar.
That is what I like about this game. It always keeps you laughing.
