its perfectly fine, if we have a good reason to skip you, we will. for now though, you've given updates and are still around. thats the best part of succession games, when your turn comes around, things are so messed up that you really have no idea where to start and !!FUN!! ensues.

also, Ill put you on the list valrandir.

edit; If I may throw an idea out there, you could create a great library. its actually something I wanted to do in the first turn so that I could adhere to the story I laid out for my character, but I never did it... still though, it would make a big chamber of engravings to look at.

Great post!
I agree 100%

Its also hard for me to take over a succession game. With everything everywhere and all the mess.
But that's how it is, ur not alone : )

[saltmummy626]

and that was about 3 days ago. Ill give scientist until the end of today, then im afraid we will have to skip.

[+!!scientist!!+]

Sorry I haven't posted in a while, the main reason was because I assumed you skipped me  . A lot actually happens in this update though:

13^th Feltsite:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

The events of late started with something unusual for this fort: migrants. There weren't many of them, but among them was a dwarf named Ineth, who immediatly struck me as being usefull by being the first one in the fort by about 30 seconds. She was amazingly agile, strong, tough, quick to recover, slow to tire, and creative. This combined with the fact that she hated all social interactions made me sure that she belonged in the military, and not as another crossbowdwarf, but as a meelee dwarf. I was expecting her to become the best dwarf in our militia, but that was just not meant to be I suppose. Her life was cut short by an invading Ettin. Ineth, rather than staying where the crossbowdwarves could help her as planned, immediatly ran up to him and tried to beat him one on one, she put up a good fight, but was killed after fighting the ettin all the way into the river, a team of 3 crossbowdwarves (one of them now a hammerdwarf after the battle) eventually killed the brute. This made me realize we had to increase defenses, and the first step of doing that would be to finish the water tank. I was organizing the creation of a second windmill farm when I realized there was no funtional off switch. In it's current state that meant that it would eventally make a new waterfall on the first bridge, so I hooked up a lever to the gear attached to the first screw pump, and, for saftey's sake, pulled it. It was quite a sight when all of them spontaneously combusted due to having no support... this might take a while.

omg wall'o'text™

Good Progress.

I would suggest using paragraphs for an easier reading experience.

[saltmummy626]

pull a lever and something just detonates for no reason? smells like dwarf fortress.

[Valrandir]

Assuming the current speed it will take over a month for scientist turn.

Scientist could you please reverse the current trend?

[+!!scientist!!+]

sorry, I realize that I haven't been uploading much, and that's because my scheduale is extremely full, and from the looks of things, it's going to get worse. I'm really sorry, but if I were to do the full turn it would probably take more than a month, so here's the current save: http://dffd.wimbli.com/file.php?id=7064

[saltmummy626]

alright. I can respect your reasons. I will take your save, compress it with valrandirs DF. then, ill PM the next player.

gonna take awhile, I have a meeting to go to soon, so maybe Ill get it up soon, or maybe later. we will see.

No problems, the story continues following your last move.

[saltmummy626]

BAH! im having trouble getting the package to upload. Ive got it all set up an ready to go, but it just wont upload... is something wrong with dffd?

[+!!scientist!!+]

I had a similar problem. For me it started the upload progress bar, but then it didn't go past 0%. All I did was wait and eventually it went straight from 0 to 100% in no time at all.

I know this is an odd request, and might mean I get in ahead of someone, but can I have the first week of December?

[MiceMiceMice]

Hooray some progress perhaps. I'd be fine with you having the 1st week of December Gulf, but my turn probably won't land then, so I probably shouldn't be the one deciding

[Valrandir]

I know this is an odd request, and might mean I get in ahead of someone, but can I have the first week of December?

I'd say certainly have it

[saltmummy626]

certainly gulf, I will give you that time. if I can get the goddamn save to upload. !!RAGE!! anyways, yes, I have assigned you the first week of december.

for now, Ill put down scientists save as the current save. I also PM aussievil yesterday.
