:A while back, Andy released the wiki. A few of the elders in hoboland decided to embark on this journey and help out the incoming population of new players. Ever since then, we have spent our time creating and editing this very wiki. Now the game staff wants to create a new wiki and waste their time and resources on it. There is no need to do this, as there is a perfectly good wiki right here.
