Say anything? Anything at all? Hmm...

The hordes of snails were almost upon me, I could smell the stink of their slime, when I woke up. In a cage, in a room with giant snails.

Noooooooooooooo~!

Sounds good! I've been meaning to play some Dwarf Fortress, perhaps this'll give me incentive to do so?

"No one has gone missing or died. The year is still young."

"Stopped dwarves from trying to clean their own missing or internal body parts."

I love dwarf fortress.

Dwarf Fortress 2014 edition is now considered bugfix complete (any remaining bugs won't be fixed until the 2015 release, so get used to them kids.)

The fall semester is rolling along in most western countries, so our younger viewers are likely to have stable internet access, and a motive to procrastinate. That means that it's the time of year when things get slightly less dead around here.

That makes this the perfect (or at least optimal) time to start a Dwarf Succession game.

We do things a little different from the typical DF succession game.

First of all, there is no waiting list.
When your turn is done. Give the save file to whoever wants it and is available. It's more important to keep the thread moving than to ensure that people all get the same number of turns (many players decline their second or third turn anyhow).

There is no time limit. Traditionally games hand off after a player has played 1 in-game year, to ensure people don't wait too long. With a forum our size this miserly rationing is hardly necessary. Feel free to play for 5 years  if nobody is waiting or 5 months if you're not sure that running a fortress in winter is right for you, and you can convince another player to clean up the mess you made in the fall.

To ensure that our gameworld is smooth running for those with less powerful machines, we will be playing a smallish fortress zone in a small world.

To ensure there are plenty of trade partners, it'll have to be a fairly young world. (DF2014 has some balance issues were many most worlds fall to goblin blitzkrieg in the heroic age, leaving no playable races.)

I'm not going to waste time taking a poll over what you-all want to see in our site either. This generally degenerates into " I dunno, whatever you guys want to do." I'm going to pick a site based on what's fun, rather than what's smart.

I'll be back with an in-character introduction of our site.

I can't seem to create a new thread today.

Can I even post?

BRO, DO YOU EVEN POST!

EDIT: It's working now. I think my original thread title was too long.

Instant Double Post Jutsu!
**You are destroyed**

If I didn't have a disabled, pregnant wife, and a rambunctious toddler to care for, I would have taken this Song, and some visuals from this Show, and made a music video. Thankfully, someone beat me to the joke and I was saved.

Alas, until I master the art of being in 3 places at once, my Youtube channel will stay lonely.

The Wheel in the Sky

Journey is more my wife's sort of thing than mine, but this song really works for me.

My steam is almost always on. Drop it a line if it says the compy is

Power supplies are on the upside at the moment, but never when you're online, Blood.

Just shoot something at me Steam account when you're on and available.

Also, yeah I forgot how much the school year has to do with how often we see people in here. It must have to do with my being away from school or seasonal work and pluggin the clock year round.

Hopefully things will pick up once people settle into enough of a routine that they have a daily trawl.

highschool is sucking a little less now that im not a freashman.

plus its good to see new posts, been busy with school and finding a drummer but the search is over and that frees me up to come back to things like this. 

staind- fade
havent listen to this since i was but a wee boy.
