1) Each person makes one life form that starts in a random spot.
2) The game ends when all spots have something on them, and it is stable.
3) The only food to start is light from the sun.
4) You must describe every habit your LF has.
5) The more habits, the slower it can make more of itself.
6) Do not use scientific words. If it ends in -ology -thesis ect, you're doing it wrong. Simply explain the habit in small words and phrases. Ex. It eats sun light.

How does it eat?
How does it copy itself?
What other habits?

This seems like a horrible evolution game :-/

To be clear it seems like it lacks any real features that would encourage a long term dynamic ecosystem, and it discourages detail :-/

[RoseHeart]

Well I am insane.

[Glass]

Wait, why is there a second thread for this?

[Paxiecrunchle]

Well I am insane.

No, it's just that a game structure in which if 12 players join it automatically dies seems unstable.

Wait, why is there a second thread for this?

Were you displeased with our shenanigans, Roseheart?

[RoseHeart]

If you lock 12 Shakespeare's into a thread how long does it take to make monkey gibberish? Not soon enough.

Keep it simple folks.

I make a giant lighter-than-air whale that floats through the sky and gets energy from absorbing sunlight through its skin. In essence, an organic solar-powered blimp. Like a blimp, it is mostly hollow.

[Paxiecrunchle]

Aha,  see you broke this happened to two threads in order to avoid dying more quickly than I usually would just in case it gets popular. Despite my reservations I'd like to see just how horribly wrong with this can go.

I make a red ball of multiplying material that eats light.
It multiplies by splitting into bits, it destroys science wherever it goes.

Make a bacterium that eats light and releases toxic vapor in response. (Oxeygen) It is primarily an aquatic organism. After incurring enough nutrient and replicating internal structures it splits into two identical organisms. It takes on an orangish red hue when in quantity.

[Roboson]

I make a flying nautilus. It's shell is sharp and pointed. It uses it's pointy shell and strong wings to ram and impale its prey. It can digest any organic life and can also vomit it's digestive fluids as a weapon. It travels in swarms.

[RoseHeart]

"mitosis" is too sciency, try again. (Feel free to edit original post)

Descriptions like whale or nautilus dont matter nor what way it moves, but why. (If at all)

[helmacon]

Uhh... You wanted a description of how it replicates. It's a bacteria. It doesn't get much simpler than that...

Would you rather me write "after incurring enough nutrient and replicating internal structures it splits into two identical organisms" ?

[RoseHeart]

Youre on the right track. Break it down More.

Actually I would accept that. Simpler choices of words would help the complexity score.

Edited into original post. It hurts my biologist soul.
