Sorry, I've been busy. It will probably be a while before I can get this adventure finished, so Timeless can go now. I'll post the story of my adventure later as a non-canon side story.

[Timeless Bob]

OK, downloading now.

I would love to have another turn!

I have some unfinished business with some grandpa bandits...

[Bralbaard]

I've updated the turn list. Those bandits better start preparing themselves.

[Timeless Bob]

My laptop's battery gave up the ghost today, so I may only be beginning my turn the day after tomorrow or whenever the new battery arrives.  I'm using a public library internet station right now, so if you don't hear any updates in three days its probably because I don't have internet access yet either.  Just a FYI to those waiting for one of my verbose lighthearted-stories-ending-in-unexpected-tragedy.

Most laptops should run on wall power even if the battery is dead.
You may need to remove the dead battery for it to work depending on how your laptop is built and how the battery failed.

[Timeless Bob]

Mine was designed by an idiot - the power cord uses the battery as part of the circuit, so that while that automatically permits the battery to recharge, once the battery stops taking a charge, the circuit is broken and I now have a thousand dollar paperweight... at least until the new battery arrives.

Ah it is one of those "exceptional" laptops then.
They excel at frustrating those who own them with their designs ability to imped their usability.

It is hard to overcome something designed by someone with a Legendary "Lack of Foresight" like that.

[Timeless Bob]

What's even more frustrating is that my CAD software and saved image files are on an unresponsive hard drive, so while I was ready to devote some serious hours to crafting more Dwarf Fortress structures for everyone's amusement, I'm back to diddling in a notebook with a pen instead!  (Incidentally I created a new card game out of misplaced creative frustration.  It seems that the habit of contributing to the Dwarf Fortress forums has been a bit of a pressure valve for my rampant creative energies.  Without that, I'm up at all hours sculpting, painting or creating new games whole.  Aaargh!)

Can we link the museum II to the main page? It would just make some things easier

[Bralbaard]

Both threads already link to each other in the first paragraph of the first post.
In this thread:

This is the thread for the first museum succession game. It has been running for a surprisingly long time; 138 in-game years have passed, 74 adventurers have played, and 37 fortresses have been constructed around the world that serve as adventuring locations. You will need df version 34.11 to play. For the museum II game follow this link.

In the other thread:

Welcome to the second museum adventure game! The game is based on the same idea, and the same rules as the first succession game, which can be found here

[Tavern]

If this game is still running I'd like to sign up for it too, if that's alright

[Timeless Bob]

I'm gonna have to bow out for this turn after all - the new battery won't be getting here for ten days, so I'd rather pass the turn on to someone who will actively advance the story along.

[Bralbaard]

No problem, I'll notify the next in line. Shall I move you back two spots?

[Timeless Bob]

Yes please, that would be a kindness.
