What I have is almost worse than dial-up...other than not having to dial in over a phone line physically. I have a "Smartphone" that is capable of the new 4G connection speeds BUT I live out in the boonies and don't even have a 1G environment. So yeah, it is about the speed of dial-up, with a slightly sketchy connection that drops out randomly sometimes. Seeing the save file size from dffd it would take me perhaps an hour and a half to download the save and likely a good 2-3 hours to reupload one once finished >.< I can't wait til I can get satellite internets!!!!!!

That wouldnt be too terribly bad - The Torture would be posting up Screenshots

Well, in that case I would go through the trouble of just doing some img linking after uploading them to imgur or wherever it is that is better than PB or ImageShack haha. It probably would take an hourish to get everything uploaded but actually posting should work rather quickly doing img links. Not entirely familiar with BBCode but wouldn't it just be  "imgBracket + imgURL + /imgBraket"?

I think I will attempt to download the save from dffd just so that I know what I would be "looking forward to" should I end up joining in on any game in the future, sans Satellite Internet...

*EDIT:  I downloaded the save from dffd and it took almost exactly 1h 30m. Huzzah for half-assed download estimates!

*EDIT+: Something that I wonder about... are the files under the folder "../raw/" required in the download or would it be possible to just use any other set of raws that I have? If it is not required then, as the game is vanilla based on the OP, it shouldn't be necessary to have them uploaded as well? That way it would cut down on the download time for anyone, if there is anyone beside myself, that has a horrid internet connection. Granted, 3MB of raws isn't really much compared to 27MB of total download but every little bit helps.

*EDIT++: Please disregard EDIT+ if there are no people active that have poor connections, as I have not yet decided if I want to try and join a succession game at the moment... >.> lol

Wow, nice job with those Mspaintings, ptw also.

Just enjoy spectating then, man. When Youre dorfed from that last migration wave Youll essentially be in it anyway.

Wow, nice job with those Mspaintings, ptw also.

Very nice. I mean, I can Draw, but I have no clue how folks can do that in Paint.

[GalenEvil]

Lol, okay, I will spectate. Looking forward to becoming dorf'd if any future migrant waves survive for any appreciable time...

I use GIMP for photo editing. I am awed by M$Paint wizards...

I'm a bit busy right now 'cause you always update at such akward times of the day -___-'

[Brewster]

Figured I would try to keep up w/ Slowpoke, he set the bar too high, that zombie riding the pony will last in my brain for a long while.

We must live different locations. :-p Thanks though!

[Bluesproto]

So at the end it happened what it had to happen. My will was imposed XD.

And now seeing the slowpoke, i'm thinking of engraving it all with images of 　Cheese　 and 　Zombies

....and there! Brewster you've now earned full membership to the slowpoke-club!

Figured I would try to keep up w/ Slowpoke, he set the bar too high!

At first I thought you were talking 'bout drawings but now I realise you meant the slowness of updating, silly me

So at the end it happened what it had to happen. My will was imposed XD.

You made what has to be the worst engraving ever...an engraving of a string...ffs get your sh*t together! The rest were pretty good though

Here's the backstory to were the massive migrants-wave came from
A few weeks ago many, many urists away from Markedangels...

-Hey Urist! What happned to all those fishermen and wrestlers we sent out to MarkedAngels?

-They never came back sir.

-Hmm, what a shame...guess they're dead now.

-Or it's nicer there then here.

-What, are you saying that MarkedAngels would be a better settlement then CopperBacon? Even with all the dwarven technology we managed to recreate, even with enough food to feed a kingdom and even with the Badgers as our only enemy!?

-Maybe they have yummy booze sir.

-....
SEND!
ALL!
THE!
MIGRANTS!

Slowpoke, 
I especially adore how You slid Yourself into there, You clever monster!

Incidentally, wouldnt an Engraving of a String just be, like, scraping a line on the wall with a knife, then telling everyone its totally a string?

Ty, I think I've "managed to slide myself"into all my pictures

Also my take on blues "string engraving" is on page 5.

[Bluesproto]

It's art! ART! 　ART　 You just can't see all of it.

The next one will be "Grey over grey" or something like that. XD

[Vodrilus]

Dear Chilton,

Please dwarf me as that original woodworker/stonecrafter.
Unfortunately can't take a turn due to heavy duty study schedules.  (Let's see again after 6 weeks or so. If the fort is still alive...)

Yours truly,
V

[Twangykid]

:L What happens to my narrative if my character dies? Do i have to talk as a zombie ruler of the fort? Because that would be so damn awesome.
