Jumping on this before the list gets gigantic.
I made a list of the people that would like to participate. I put the name of somebody into brackets if I'm not sure if that person wants to participate or just likes the idea. Tell me if I'm missing someone or have to delete the brackets.

The List:

EDIT: Are we just waiting for the release now?

We could start deciding if we prefer a Fortress or an Adventurer first, but since we cannot generate a world, yes, we have to wait.

Or, we could pick the founding seven, and prepare dorfing for the others in the next migrant waves.

EDIT: I want to partecipate, but as a dorf, not as an overseer

Wow, a thread that's half about me (for the past two pages)! I am deeply honored. Unfortunately, I don't think I can handle writing two separate full-length stories at once (especially not with the Internet/free time issues I've been having). But since you all asked so nicely... if you really want me, consider me chronologist. Be aware, though, that I'm already behind with the Spearbreakers pdf and may find it difficult-to-impossible to compile one for this (I have no access to mediafire anymore).
    Also, sign me up for a turn... this sounds like fun. Oh, and if it might be possible... Could we have it modded to have two separate races of dwarves, one "evil", and the other "good"? My reasoning is that players could wage war on the other civ. That sounds like fun in and of itself.

    As to the tumblr, yes, that is mine. I haven't posted there since June, and the poetry isn't nearly as good as you say, in my opinion, but thank you for the compliments all the same.

Not sure if this is doable, but what about something like "duergars", dwarves that are not able to survive outside?

Are you talking about the duergar appereance or they unability to survive outside? The second one would make embarking really hard.

The unability.
Yes, I was referring to the ability to actually embark directly in the underground.

You could use Filebeam instead of mediafire.

The idea of evil dwarves seems cool, too.
Wait... Evil dwarves == Holistic spawn!?

Hard science is like a sword, and soft science is like fear. You can use both to equally powerful results, but even if your opponent disbelieve your stabs, they will still die.

I don't think we should mod out a game that hasn't even been released yet, but the idea of dark dwarves would be nice for people who just want to fudge with other people.
Wow, this IS starting to sound like a multiplayer game, now.

Also, Woo! We got Talvieno here, hopefully by the time this is released, you might have something to help you out with that, and good luck on your projects!

I getting kinda worried that someone will end up rendering all the non-dwarf races extinct by year 20. But if that happens, I guess we could mod in the ability to embark with them and re-start the dead race. Which sounds totally awesome, by the way.

I wonder if we could get Corai in here to make a kobold adventurer?

I will record full unedited screencasts of my turn using http://obsproject.com/ and upload it to http://www.filedropper.com/ for others to fiddle around with.
In other news, I will have to wait about 3 to 4 months for my turn to arrive, after DF2013 is released, assuming that all that are ahead of me use their full 7 days.

Except that you'd have to wait a few months for DF2013 to be released since it hasn't been.
