This is a re-creation of "The Strip", a succession game from over here.

The original Idea was to create something similar to Las Vegas or Fallout New Vegas; A long 'strip' of shops, with many visitors each, instead of one walmart-sized super-shop^tm.

Spoiler: Rules (click to show/hide)

You have 2 years, or 2 weeks to complete your turn, whichever comes first. Make logs that are mostly in character, but if you need to state "______ messed up ______ during their turn," feel free. Provide pictures.

You do not have to play for a full two years if crashes/bugs ruin it for you, but try to play for a year if possible.

DFHack is only allowed to fix glitches/crashes.

No tilesets. I don't want to deal with fixing the save, because some people don't know how to uninstall a tileset.

Try to make a signifigant contribution to the fortress. Perferably build a new tavern, but if you claim the entirity of the caverns in two years, I'm not going to force you to make a tavern.

Don't mess with other people's buildings without permission. If you upgrade their taverns, i.e. you take out stone beds and put in gold beds, that should be fine, but don't come in and start breaking walls and floors.

Try not to savescum. If you lose the fortress, just write it up, and we can either start over somewhere else or end it there.

Try to respond within 24 hours of the save being posted. After that, I will message you. If you still don't reply 72 hours after that, you're being skipped.

If you're going to let the fort run in the background and not actually do anything, don't take a turn.

[NJW2000]

I'm in, yo! Probably should be able to do a turn, but possibly after a few weeks, because of exams, if that would be ok.

Also, might awnt to try PMing people on the waitlist on the other thread.

[chaotic skies]

Alright, I'll ad you around spot 3 or 4. And I'll star PMing people.

[NJW2000]

Thanks for doing this! Don't forget to try the 1x3 thing, btw

[chaotic skies]

Alright, PMs sent, awaiting responses. I'll try the 1x3 thing right now.

[Deus Asmoth]

Oh cool. I'm still up for this.

[XhAPPYSLApX]

I'm still up for it!

[chaotic skies]

Alright, you're in.

Also, confirmed you can't go below 2 local squares. Probably so you have space and everything.

[Deus Asmoth]

I think there's a DFhack tool that lets you do 1x1 embarks and such, but I don't think that's up to date yet.

[chaotic skies]

Ah. Well, I'm working on finding sites right now. So far, we have a volcano, and a sinister glacier with shallow and deep metals, and flux.

[chaotic skies]

Poll and locations are all up. I'm going to take off the tileset before I embark though, just to ensure I don't break anything.

Edit: I fixed the tile set, we're back to ascii.

[Bearskie]

You can embark on a 1x1 square. In fact, 16x1's are perfectly possible now in vanilla.

[chaotic skies]

How? I need this information. If we could do a 1 by something strip, that would be soo good.

[chaotic skies]

Alright ignore me, the tileset I was using was apparently outdated. But now I have a fresh install of df, so no glitches or save corruption. Just in case, I have a backup.

So how big do we want the embark to be?

I was thinking 1 by 4, that way we have the strip, and we have room to expand. Because 4 local map tiles are actually pretty big.

[Rupdeus]

I'll take a turn. Just noticed it's a large world.
