I use drop.io when I need to store a file online or move it around.  It has a 100meg limit.  How large are the DF saves?

Fivex, if you're done, let's sort out where to upload the file to.  Suggestions?

[ottottott]

DFFD? http://dffd.wimbli.com/index.php The Dwarf Fortress File Depot. Sounds like a good choice if you ask me! I think it requires signing up though. If you don't want to do that you could use Mediafire.
The Dwarf Fortress saves are... depending on how big the generated map is... I would say about 10 mega max. My saves are about 3 mega but I use the smaller region and 2x2 embark squares.

DFFD is fine with me, I've just never used it before.  Fivex, wherever you want to put it is cool.

I forgot the date while writing this entry:

Some migrants have arrived! Yes!
10th timber:

A planter withdraws from society.
Unfortunately, I have no clue what workshop a planter needs when he goes into a strange mood.
12th timber:
Soon after I built a caftdwarves workshop for an unrelated reason(Which is so that we can begin the production of crafts), the planter claims it!
18th timber:

He then proceeds to get a feather wood log and make something out of only that.
22nd timber:

Fail.
14th moonstone:

I am pretty sure it's time to start making metal stuff.
11th opal:

I have reached an underground cavern. But more importantly... There is flux stone!
12th obsidian:

Huh?!?!?!?

Who the hell let a wild horse in here? And who the hell gave it a name?!!
17th obsidian:

Serves it right.You don't dare kill a dwarf in this fortress.
23rd obsidian:

Um... ouch? It keeps regenerating damage but the damage on the external body parts and stuff is still shown here.
25th obsidian:

Okay, now I kinda feel sorry for it
1st granite:

 Above is the final status of the horse. It just needs to die. Anyways, my time as overseer is over for now.

Silly horse, this is not HorseEaten. You should try the next fortress...

[Goodguy3]

I suppose I should be expecting a message with a link in it soon, then? I can't wait to des-Er, I mean, MANAGE my beloved new fort!

I must be going blind.

[Canalan]

I only hope Canalan survives till my turn.

2nd Granite, 1052 D.Y.

Mwahaha, Now that the previous overseer is. . .busy. .I shall assume control of the Fortress! My first order? Plaster the walls with RIDICULOUS PICTURES!




Oh ho ho ho! We have a doctor in the fort! Well, I'll show him! I'll build him a hospital and make him DO WHAT HE LOVES!


Symmetry is SOOO yesterday! Speaking of THINGS THAT START WITH THE 'S' SOUND. .


. .Maybe we better build a CEMETERY soon, to put our DEAD THINGS IN!


STONEWORKER! Make us a coffin. No wait, make a lot of them! WE'LL NEED THEM ALL!!!!!!


And what is this mess? We don't have any sort of STONEWORKER MILITARY? Rubbish!! Say, do you feel a draft in here? I DO!!!


I shall lead our men to VICTORY! WHo needs weapons when you can TWIST A GOBLINS HEAD OFF GRR?! AND AN AXE?

[fivex]

You should probably go and make another steel battleaxe for your new millitary.

[iceball3]

I've never attempted a succesion fort before...
i guess i'll definately be good to go on 9/25-9/27.

[Jerm]

Welcome iceball3, schedule updated.  I moved v12us, as he is only available to play after the 20th.
I also bumped it up since Fivex is so damn fast. 

[Goodguy3]

Galena 11th


What the?! What's a FISH CLEANER going to make? Super Clean Fish!?


Ohh, I see, He can also cut gems! OK then, I'LL MAKE A JEWLER'S SHOP! I bet THAT will satisfy. .

. . .him. .

Well, on the bright side. . PARTY AT THE BASALT TABLE!


OK let's see what I'm doing NOW!!

Ah yes, I put up a TRADE DEPOT near our entrance so that when those PANSY ELVES come by we can TRADE FOR THEIR WOOD. Also I moved that disgusting refuse pile up a good few blocks. That should save us a few dozen TRIPS THROUGH GARBAGE.

Man, we need a magma source. We can't just keep making CHARCOAL because we'll run out!



Ah-HAH!!!! Seems we've decided it would be a good idea to SETTLE IN A VOLCANOE! Therefore there is plenty of delicious, red MAGMA to harness!

. .problem is, guys, there doesn't seem to be a good way to get over it, so we can channel into it to flood a controlled chamber. . but we can't just keep cutting down trees for coal, soooo. . .who wants to off themselves for the good of the fortress?


". . .A-choo!"

Ah! Canalan! Good of you to volunteer! Grab a pick!

[ottottott]

Dude! You are a complete newbie aren't you. It hurt reading your posts. It will be fun to play after you. But you really don't need to sacrifice anyone... Please? It's just sad...
(NVM me just do what you want and have FUN!)

Pro-tip: You don't need to use caps in every sentence.

Other than that, though, it looks like this fort is coming along... nicely.

Nono, it's good to add some caps there. That way, you'll know when he is screaming the words so you can read it with the proper tone  .

Also, maybe the miner will survive, if he outruns the magma (that is, if you don't want to pierce the magma wall with a channel from one level above.
