I'll take that. Remind me, how long did the average Sparkgear survive? About 20-30 turns?

I'd take one of these skipped/moved turns and get mine early, but I requested the 12th specifically because I'll be finished with my exams by then. :P

can I go on the eighth? I'll actually do something next time. Something that doesn't kill ten dwarves. (intentionally)

If flaede doesn't show up soon then use earlier save chaosseed.

what what what?
Dang. When I asked I thought someone was on a turn already and I'd take next one open! I missed Spoon's response. Didn't mean to hold up the action, didn't know I was up. Would a couple of hours on a brand new PC be likely to get me any progress?

Edit: Whats with the ridiculous long folder name?

I sorry, I misread your post, I thought you wanted the current turn, sorry, will sign you up for another turn, and if you're willing the sure, play a bit until choasseed shows up. And the long name is probably LordSlowpoke doing, trying to be funny or something.

I've had it crash twice. I'm shortening the ridiculous folder name and hoping that helps.

EDIT: it did. Also: 40fps. Not bad.

Nope. Doing something wrong. Keeps crashing. All I manage to do is dig out a giant stockpile area by the dumping zone so as to speed up that process a bit... then around a season in BAM, crashie crash.

Bah, I wasn't feeling it today so it just wound up worse if you want to play the more fun version of Lordslowpoke's save it's here

Okay, I'm here!

Uh...unless Flaede wants to do it? >_>

Anyway, I downloaded the save and verified that I can load and save it, at least.

Oh wow. I came here today with the intention of starting up Sparkgear again, but looks like it's still running. Man. Awesome.
Too bad to hear of your technical problems though.

Well, I suppose you could run the next one. We've been sort of passing it around.

Yeah, this one is going down soon anyway. My estimate for that is about 9 days.

I demand control of this monstrosity! Unless nahkh shows up. I'll start it in May? And start a thread when this one seems to be officially dead.

So feel free to start the next one when this one dies nahkh, it's just not the same without you!  :)

I'm guessing that either my modding in of custom workshops after genning the world and embarking, the bugginess of the new version or the sort of corrupted save that LordSlowpoke loaded up is causing the problems. I suggest using LordSlowpoke's first save instead of his second.

So that would be this one.
