Updated with foxtrot and Solifuge's games.

[Squeegy]

Thanks for taking it off my hands. I did my best to run it for a couple years but my interest in the subforum eventually waned.

[Zanzetkuken The Great]

Going to go down the list and purge the inactive tomorrow.

Wow, wasn't expecting praise from you.  This isn't meant as an insult, it's just that last I had seen you hadn't been on the forums in several months.

[Mephansteras]

New game to add to the list:

Name: Distant Colony V3
Category: Competitive Game
Link: Here
GM: Mephansteras
Description: The players vie to have the most successful Colony on a new world. Forum version of a Board Game I'm working on.
Recruiting Status: Open

[Xvareon]

Septerra Core - Rise of the Junkers (Cooperative games) is now on hiatus, effective immediately, until I either get my drive for it back or I find someone else who'd like to GM for it. You can go ahead and change its status if you like.

[Zanzetkuken The Great]

Updated Mephansteras and Xvareon's requests.  Sorry it took so long.  Finals are just now finishing up.

[Mephansteras]

Thanks. Minor issue, though, it is a competitive game not a coop game.

Recruiting status is now closed, as well.

[Solifuge]

Okay, I've gotten enough content out that I feel good about linking this one:

How about adding sandbox?

Here is one:

Zenland: You are an immortal mage. Use your powers of terraforming and sommoning to uncover secrets and sculpt the land in your image. But, what is really going on? Where do these people seem to appear from? What of the warning sensed by the other mages? Discovery and creation is the name of the game! Play it your way. Build structures, armies, and cast powerful spells to achieve any end you could desire. Forge pradise or advenure with each turn. It is truly up to you! [god game] [rpg] [army sim]

SANDBOX GAMES
Games wherein players set thier own goals and player creativity directs gameplay.

[RoseHeart]

Cooperative vs Factions, and a Google Sheet.

I've been thinking about these two catagories. I believe they are the right categories to have, but I believe their descriptions need to be strengthened to make them more independent.

Cooperative Games
Games wherein players take turns to win a goal that is the same as or compatible with many or most other players.

Faction Games
Games wherein players take turns to win a goal that is the same as or compatible with one or more players.


I dropped the cooperative description completely onto faction(the old one worked I just feel this one is more precise), I changed cooperatives description to be more about games where primarily players are working together rather than as a possibility.

My two cents.


Also a Google sheet could really help this project. whether open or you appoint helpers. It could be a good buffer for when you are unable to update the thread from time to time. If you'd like I could make one myself, or if you make it you can be the primary authority.

Edit: for the record I thought I sent this as a PM.

[Zanzetkuken The Great]

Sorry I've been a bit lax on this.  Been busy with a few different things.  Should have this updated after I wake up, as I need to get to sleep soon.

Wanting a short description of one or two sentences, not the full one from the game's OP.

I'd consider this pretty much just the cooperative games category.  Not really a new one.

Here to remind you of your update decision after sleep

Wound up sleeping a bit late and didn't have the time to do so this morning.  Mostly done now, will be fully done after ufo gives me a non-OP description.
