It was an online wiki, but it was all drawings, and you could create new "scenes" or navigate through the drawings, finding cool things. I'd be really happy if someone were to find it, because I've been looking for it for the last few days. Thanks in advance. One of the things I remember was that one of the pages was centered on clouds, and named thus.

A.Welcome to the forum!
B.Wrong board.
C. There is a thread devoted to "find the name of the game"
Look in the "other games section"
I'll help you find it.

[Dkite11]

You are very kind, sir. More kind than some other people on some forums I've posted on. Anyways, thanks for all this. I just thought that my game was a bit different, considering it's a sort of wiki, and not really a game. But, I will stop posting on this thread now so it can get buried under all the other, more important threads.

Here you go!

This is definately not any of those other forums, the DF forums are a very oddball haven from the bile and evils that go on in the rest of the internets,  its nice here.

[darkrider2]

This is now a DF forum self appreciation thread.

We really are the best.

[jester]

DAMN RIGHT. 

TAKE THAT YOU FLECHING MINECRAFT FANBOYS

HUZZAH!

[Hubris Incalculable]

You know why we are so chill? we work out our aggression on those idiotic dwarves who never do as they're told.

[The Merchant Of Menace]

Yeah, we're awesome, what with the threads we have every month to audit how many females are here, and the fact that we can't go 2 weeks without someone being banned or muted. And then there's all the pointless meme spewing.

[Heron TSG]

Well, I hadn't seen anything about auditing our demographics, though the stats page already has that. The bannings/mutes are actually pretty sparse for a forum with thousands of active members. If you count either as a crime, Bay12 probably has a lower crime rate than the town I live in, which has a similar population.

[The Merchant Of Menace]

We had a thread yesterday that consisted of "Are there females playing DF", Toady deleted it.

I won't dispute that the forums are very chill, but it's hardly the golden shining utopia everyone goes on about.

[Aklyon]

Well, most people are only thinking of the lower boards when saying we're a utopia or something. The upper boards can be a mess.

[Flying Dice]

So if we're all done with the circle-jerk here...


Jk, jk. 

In all seriousness, despite whatever problems we do have, B12 (and particularly the lower boards) are still better than any other forum I've ever been a part of. For one, I have yet to be arbitrarily banned because a mod disagreed with my opinion on some trivial topic.

[Detonate]

ayup, I used to go on the MC forums a lot more than B12, but once the threads of 'OMFG! I KILD A CREPPER!' started popping up, I used this place more.

also, I think the reason we have a good community is
A) dwarf fortress is a hard game, and only mature/intelligent people will continue to play it and so sign up onto the forums
B) We have only 2 moderators (AFAIK), but they are incredibly good at their job
C) we aren't a large community, but we aren't too small either, so we aren't suffering from a lack of forumers, and nor are we suffering from so many we have shitloads of morons that can't use a search bar
D) since the majority of us are mature, it appears to have an effect on newer members.

A) The maturity of some people is debatable, but yes. Besides, not everyone has played DF, especially on the lower boards.
B) Jonathan S. Fox and Kurtulmak are moderators, Toady and ThreeToe are administrators.
C) 2913529 Posts in 98034 Topics by 50825 Members. We're pretty big.
D) Agreed.

Mmmmmmyes, I say, those street urchins at the Minecraft forum don't know what they're missing! Aklyon, dear, be a darling and pass me a scone, will you? Lord knows where the butler has gone off to... *adjusts monocle*

Lord above, wouldn't it be humorous if he was attacked by a band of those tree-hugging elves? Or perhaps a dwarf whose last name reflects his profession and/or current predicament? Oh my, what if he dug too deep and was overwhelmed by *clowns*?! Or carp?! Or badgers?! Or perhaps even an insane noble?!? Pull the lever, I say! Ho HO! Or maybe he was caught in a flow of-

-oh me oh my-

_*teehee*
