Succession Game For Newbies
« on: August 02, 2011, 06:57:47 pm »

Hey guys i just wanted to make another succession game for the forums. Hoping for a fun game and to hopefully last more than my record of 3 years but dwarf fortress is dwarf fortress so you never know.

Rules:
 - No intentionally ruining the game
 - Each turn is one year
 - When its your turn you must have your 1st post within 24 hours (it doesnt have to be your entry it could be something like "Hey guys starting turn now.")
 - You must finish your turn in  1 week or less (to keep things moving)
 - If you cant finish your turn post what you have, the next person can choose to use your save or start from the previous one
 - We can starrt after 6 people sign up but as many people can sign up as possible

If you think of any cools rules like you must piss off the elves or something just PM me ill try to please  :D

Turns:
1- MonkeySmith
2- Ddynamo
3- Melkor
4- Drakon136
5- Thetyler101
6- XhappyslapX
7- Wypie
8- frankienrg
9- Cyrik
10- Ninja137
11- Spaghetti7
12- Gizogin

Doctor Dynamo would like to be part of this Dwarfy Fortress game. I've barely played Dwarf Fortress much, but that will make thing more interestin'.
I feel like I'm writing a job application, so give the bloomin' overseer job.

I'll sign up for a turn.
There haven't been many newer succession games lately, and this one seems promising.

I suppose you could sign me up too.
Just a heads up though, starting a new job soon so not too sure on how much time I may have.

I'd like to join too! Have been playing DF (fortress mode) for just a month, but I grasped the basics, thus I shouldn't do too badly :D
