I don't see my name yet so just put me as fast as possible. I really want to play the new version.

[Kagus]

Alright, I've put you in on the first assumed-to-be-free spot.  I still haven't heard anything from the other two sods who signed up for this, think I'll go give them a poke.  If one of them drops out I can bump you up a spot.


Then, of course, it's just a matter of what to do with you, Cheddarius...  I'm a bit concerned about the research involving this version's HFS (heck, I read up on it after my turn, and now I'm sorry I did...  That would've been an absolutely epic thing to discover firsthand), especially seeing as your turn is currently slated to be nine years into the fortress, by which time we'll most likely have advanced quite a bit.

I'm considering putting you behind Deadbeard, to keep the chain of ignorant bliss going as long as it can.  It's my own damned fault for not making that point clear, but I do feel that it will have an effect on the storyline of this fort if you know something about what's in store for us.


How's it coming along, Barbarossa?

[Paulus Fahlstrom]

I'm, of course, still in. I'll take the first available slot, and no, I've been far to busy to play the new version or even 'read up' on it. So I'll keep my eyes on this thread. Please don't divulge stuff unless you come across it in actual gameplay.

[Eztuzt]

You should record a summary of what people do on their turn, I remember seeing that in another fort but I forgot what the name was.

[Cheddarius]

All right, how about this: If I manage to find anything that I've read about in the new version, I'll stay away from it and let the next person deal with it?

[Heron TSG]

I'm most of the way through Autumn. Things are just ducky.

EDIT: This fortress truly is the berries, although I'm up past my kisser in swanky new projects. Every dwarf is constantly spifflicated, or on the way to be. Thus, I'm building *ahem* buildings. One will be a speakeasy, in which the dwarves will bull and quaff. I've got quite the copacetic hospital being set up near the gate to receive the wounded.

The Great Wall of Cavebrands is pretty hotsy-totsy, but it isn't finished yet, and thus several on-the-lam kobolds have ventured in. Most have died. The dwarven population  have more than doubled, and thus I've built much more farmland.

The real McCoy, however, is the pipe I'm digging. There are two staircases, one for dwarves, one for water. If ANYTHING threatens the dwarven staircase, the water in the floodline will pour out and (hopefully) drown it.

EDIT 2: I'm just finished with Autumn. If I'm lucky, I'll finish by the end of tomorrow.

[Grimlocke]

Im quite sure what to make of that last post, but I see nothing there that would take you two days to finish.

Do inform us of what delay is, or better yet, finish it up and upload the save so we can keep the thing going. Im sure im not the only who is eager to get started.

[Kagus]

I'll go give him a prod, see what happens.

[Heron TSG]

It was taking forever due to my horrible RAM; I got around 12fps.

Anyway, due to a power surge the save was corrupted (crash!), meaning my (not as recent as I'd like) backup is all I have left. I don't want to keep you waiting, so whoever has the next turn can finish out the year.

SAVE

PS: I decided to use 20's lingo on my last post. Times sure have changed, eh?

[Kagus]

Ouch, sorry to hear that man...  That's gotta hurt.

Alright Grimlocke, looks like it's your turn to step up to plate.  Have at it!

[Jordrake]

Harsh, dude. I liked the 20's slang, though.

[Heron TSG]

I won't give much away, but it's probably for the best that what occurred was erased. All that I'll say is that we were down to half a dozen dwarves who were all in the military.

[Eztuzt]

Don't worry barb, it's happened to all of us. Many times. Over and over.

I need to know what happened though! Once my turns done, mind sending me a PM of what happened?

[Kagus]

Yeah, and tack me on to the recipient list.  There's no DF story like one that goes horribly, horribly right.

[LordSlowpoke]

Add me. Addmeaddmeaddme. I want to know what makes the world explode!
