Alrighty, .05 is out today, so we should have a year done very soon!

I want to say I'm really sorry for the delay. They bugginess of the first release wasn't something I was quite expecting. Call me naive, but I was anticipating a little more stability. This is my first major DF update, so I suppose that's a little excusable. Anyway, I know you guys are really keen to get this underway, so I want you to know I'm sorry we haven't gotten cracking yet! This won't be quite a blind succession game, but it'll definitely kick arse anyway. We've got some great players lined up, and the chaos that ensues should be legendary ;) The support behind it is awesome, thanks so much!

And there was much rejoicing.

Could I be dorfed as well? A Armor/weapon smith if you wouldn't mind. Hopefully I can make a nice artifact for you guys. =P

I think I'll probably will be able to play by the time DF2014 comes out. Might I be added to the future Overseer list? Or failing that, dwarfed as the manager or mechanic.

Reposting just on general principle.

Dorf Me! I wanna be the hammerer! Also, nice idea!

Edit:
Just finished reading the topic. Yes, I wanted to make sure nobody would ask to handle the executions before me! If you believe a sole hammerer is just too useless make me a hammer-using soldier or something like that!

We startin' up finally? Let's go smallish world with the 250 year history and a 3x3 embark to avoid the crashes for the most part. Autosaves or religious saving would be a good idea, too. Wouldn't want someone's hard work to go down the drain mid-season. Then again, I wouldn't complain if it crashed right after accidentally, um, "visiting the circus".

Can I be a dorf? Button? Bonus points if the dwarf's real name is Sidos. I would like to be a mechanic if that's available.

Looking forward to watching!

3x3 would also be better on framerate, so I'm seriously considering that.

I'd like to be put on the waiting list for this. I usually play with ASCII, so that's not a problem for me.

Yeah, used to be like you.  "Don't draft the mothers" and "Make sure that mood gets fulfilled!" and "He's tantruming, better make him happier and not order him killed" or "Leave the gate open!  The woodcutter is still running away from the ambush!" Then I started throwing children to their deaths in an ornate glass display case in the middle of the dining hall

Hey guys, just an update for everyone.

Good news: there's a 15 z level waterfall. The dining room has incorporated this into its design. There is no aquifer.

Even better news: I just got half the year done.

Also - the fortress is called 'Swordwork'. I'd love it if everyone used swords...

Great news guys! Knickers just sent me the save file after the first year! It's done! Thanks for bearing with all the delays we've had. First ep should be up about a day after Knickers sends me the edited files. I'm about to get onto the next player to send them the save. Thanks for sticking with the project!

Yes and yes! This will remain the main thread for the series, and I'll put up each episode as it's released.

Would ask for a dorf. Name Zanchito, soldier or record keeper, or whatever you have, really. :)
