It would also severely limit new members finding the place, Bringing only friends of friends.  Maybe our own section in the bay12 forums when we get big enough would suffice.

Yeah, a Sub-section in the community games section would be AWESOME!

So get out there and spread the words to your friends! Lets get some "league" inspired matches in too.  I'm thinking we can even have a few "ranked" contests that will increase peoples overall score if they win.

Everyone inside the League should advertise it in their sig.

Mmm I'd say create a sig advertising the wiki for the league and the personal player profile.

That's an even better idea.

Too bad that most people have images in signatures disabled.

You've collectively summed up the issues facing us as a forum community and my vote right now is the one listed above: inquire of the admin what we can do, perhaps waiting until we have a few more members to look more legitimate. For the good of the group and in order for it to serve as a useful utility for the DF community, we need to be recognized and supported by Toady, etc. As a democratic group, would you voice your opinions on this here? Wait, or go for the gold?

Sigs would be tight. Working on the architecture of my very peaceful "terrifying" fort right now, much disappointed by the lack of pure evil and undead. Let's face it, Hoary marmots aren't much of a challenge! As soon as I take a break I'll format my own sig. Great idea Dante, care to elaborate?

Elaborate on? 

I vote we wait a little bit more, We'd need between 30-50 active players before anyone would take us seriously.

Agreed. However, we are facing a problem because WITHOUT a better place to host this, it's going to be hard to recruit players and hard to provide a good service.

Ahhhaha. It says... we need to get some help :)

I did the Wiki, now get out and recruit! Also, please host some games, both here and in the Wiki? I am a little busy right now.

Seriously, ask toady for his backing..

As an alternative - ask him to sticky it. This is a good Idea, and will clean up the place a lot.

Yeah, he's a banned spammer. Normally we'd delete this thread too, but people were having too much fun with it by the time we got here.

Sign me up.  Additionally, I know a decent bit of Wiki syntax, so if you need help with something along those lines, let me know.

I just switched to Linux (Ubuntu) so I'l probably be gone for a week re-installing DF and doing other stuff.

I am highly interested in joining.  This would be my first succession game; but what a great place to start; right?
My only concern is being a Mac user would I be able to participate in the general free for all?  Or only with other Mac-using players?  I dual boot to Windows 7; but it's been very crashy with DF for me.

I've also posted my interest on the wiki.
