Hm, I just realised, I'm also using the tutorials version of the game (it linked me to it). . v.28 something. Woops! Haha, looks like I'd better upgrade.

I updated the top post.

There's a schedule in there.  Have a look at it.  Post or PM if you don't like it or need to be moved.

No sense in wasting time.  Fivex, if you're cool with it, your turn starts at midnight tonight :P

You can't get shells from turtles you brought along, because I'm pretty sure you can't bring turtles. Or cave lobsters. You have to fish for them, and hope they're not extinct.

1st grante:

While traveling to find a spot to found a new fortress... our wagon literally fell apart! I guess we will have to start out fortress here, then.
I shall call this fortress... Fisheaten

22nd slate:

Not much is happening, stuff is getting mined(still) and the farms are being flooded.
19th malachite:

Some migrants have arrived. They are probably disappointed; we don't have any bedrooms or a (complete) dining room
7th sandstone

IT'S FINISHED!
What exactly is going on:
Above, I modified the river so it flows into a hole, which goes downwards from the dining room into an cistern or whatever you call it. Then, two screw pumps pump the water out of the cistern back into the river again. There is an occasional minor flooding around the waterfall, but who cares.
Also somehow a kitten got into the river and fell to his(her?) death.

The schedule:
You have 3 days.  You should get a PM or a note on this board when the previous player is done.  Download the file, and play a year.

So, playing only 1 year.

Yes, but actually I'm considering closing membership and letting it go round and round amongst those involved right now.  Because I'm down with everyone getting (hopefully) more than one turn at it.

Oh... I thought you play for as long as you can... Well in this case it's all good. But it seems that I was put a little late in the list. Let me check this through!
Yeah I'm supposed to be 3rd. I was the 3rd person to want to enter...
Wait... What do you mean closing membership? No rly please explain...

we have about 8 people involved right now.  My plan is to go through all of them and then loop, so that Fivex plays again, and proceeds.

I think a few more newbies can jump in, but then we'll just loop through the current group.

So... can I be moved forward on the list? I should be 3rd. And... if someone finishes early then can't the next start early aswell? No use waiting.

Sorry about the confusion.

3 rl days to play 1 game year.

I'm sure there are other succession games that players play as long as they can during their turn, but I would rather we keep this one to 1 year each.

I updated the top post.  If you finish quickly and want to move it along, drop a note to me and the player next in line and I'll update the schedule.

Ott, I moved you to 4th.  I tried to put it in order of relative newness to the game, and I assumed you were less new than the people above you.  The rest of the list was in somewhat random order.

Looking good, Fivex!

I find it not fair that someone who asked early has to wait longer. Like if you went to a restaurant and asked for something to eat and then someone else came later and asked for something to eat too. Then that someone who came after you gets his/her food but you are still sitting there waiting even though you were there 1st. It's really sickening!
Here is the order in what I think they should be but it's still your decision: (I swapped fivex and jerm because you both agreed to it.) fivex, jerm, ottottott, bayar, v12us, canalan, goodguy3, tsarwash

Sigh.  Since this is such a big deal to ottottott, I'm rearranging the schedule.

I might still be a little upset for waiting a ******* hour for my order at a restaurant and then they said they forgot to write it down.
