Does anyone have a good suggestion for a DF steam community to join?  Something we can post events to and jump on voice with?

Wouldn't this be a perfect opportunity to use Dfterm?

That looks really cool.  I'm spoiled and play with graphics but that project is looking good.  Going to follow it for sure.

Made a steam group here: http://steamcommunity.com/groups/Dwarf_Fortress
Anyone can join and post an event.  Tonight (midnight EST) is a chat/drink/play event.. hope someone joins!  No pressure or stress, just friendly fun.

Also, does anyone have some DF artwork that could be used for the group?

Unpause the game at the beginning of your fortress, let the FPS even out and play that amount of seconds. After that time has passed, pause and check the amount of idlers. Take that amount of sips. Rinse, lather repeat. Do this with the standard d_init.txt/init.txt settings.

(sung to the tune of "If you're happy and you know it, raise your hand")

Every time a dwarf dies, take a shot
Every year that a dwarf doesn't die, take a shot

Take a shot, take a shot, take a bloody bloomin' shot
Play your game, play it well, take a shot

For every goblin slain by a trap take a shot
For every battle cattle kill, take a shot.

Take a shot, take a shot, take a bloody bloomin' shot
Join your dwarves in alcohol, take a shot

For every badger that becomes enraged, take a shot.
There's a fish in the water, take a shot

Take a shot, take a shot, take a bloody bloomin' shot
Send your fortress straight to hell, take a shot

^ This...this right here. Yes, oh a thousand times yes.

take a sip for every jmq (manager orders)

[Girlinhat]

I use u-m-q, am I excempt?

[gentgeen]

Nope. You have to take two shots for using a divergent path to the manager orders.

Joined the Steam group. Soapalope shall now be known as Chaznoodles.

Every time the message ---- cancels ---- : Interrupted by ---- happens, take a shot.

Oh sweet mother of pearl menacing with spikes of rope reed... I can just see the headlines: "VIDEO GAMES CAUSE MASS SUICIDE"

All across the world today, lives were snuffed out when a death pact formed around the cult-game Dwarf Fortress...

I agree that this would be better played in a group, preferably lying on top of each other in a giant dining hall with kegs stacked up to the rafters just outside.

[Tharwen]

take a sip for every jmq (manager orders)

I only ever use them to avoid micromanaging my steel, so only a few times per game.

[Eric Blank]

I don't drink alcohol or anything nearly as fun (to other people. my lack of the fun here is the terrible aftertaste and that I'm terribly poor. Yes I am an elf. Sorry, I am [FIREIMMUNE_SUPER].), and don't have a mic, but I most certainly will join and watch/record the hilarity.

I really wish more people would use DFterm. I've always wanted to use it but don't know many people who play DF much.

[Carnes]

Almost time!  Grab a drink (doesn't have to be booze) and hop into the chat room for introductions.  No stress or pressure, you can even just lurk if you want.  http://steamcommunity.com/groups/Dwarf_Fortress

I'm having a Rum & Coke but probably won't drink much tonight.  (hah, i'm weak, i know!)  Also, all the people who have already joined are promoted to officers.  You guys can change anything including the picture and group info.. it's this board's group, not mine.  Hope to see you guys/gals there!

You might be able to schedule an event to get some people playing?

ok I tried joining the group, but steam seems an unreasonable behemoth.
