It has been ages since I last played DF for more than 3 days, I am somewhat tempted to join but not sure if I will, so much responsibility, so many chances to fuck everything up
[B]Taking Dorfing and turn Requests! If you are requesting a turn, please specify wether or not you would like to be dwarfed ahead of time. Rulers, please dwarf everyone on the dorfing list and mention it in your updates[/B] Should I make a separate thread for the game? Also taking verified turn list applicants. The rules are simple. You have from Spring to Spring, as soon as you see it is spring, zip up your save and upload it somewhere. Please post plenty of screenshots, and use flavorful writing, if you will. You'll have 24 hours to accept your turn when it rolls around. If you would like to PM me your steam name or email address, I'll alert you via that software.

are we using any mods? I tend to play using LNP with some modifications.

also, that one posessed dwarf just gone insane as I just reached a cave with spider webs, so we'll never know what she wanted :v:

I don't have anything installed right now, but I definitely wouldn't be opposed to LNP and a new tileset. Agree for LNP + Tileset, Disagree for Neither, Funny for just LNP, Winner for just tileset.
oh fuck but now that I hit a cave there's cave shit growing all trough my clay layers of the fort.
I'll go second I guess.
Also my main fort just got upgraded to a barony.

What's your Dorf name going to be?
Use a tileset, makes it easier to read for people used to using them. Don't care much about LNP, is it feasible to zip up the entire folder rather than just the save?
Also I'm up for a turn, try my hand at it and see how I can fuck things up.
[QUOTE=Trekintosh;41670031]What's your Dorf name going to be?[/QUOTE]
Kyle McUrist obviously.
If we are going to use a tileset use a square ASCII one.
ASCII tiles can be daunting to new players

Jollybastion is good
Okay, is everyone ok with me using LNP+Jollybastion and simply zipping the whole file for uploads?
I'm fine with that, that way we won't have issues with people using the wrong version.
That's probably the best way to do things
also count me in as well, with Scratch FingersBroken as my dwarf.
Might be difficult for me to use a tileset but I already said I was in.
It probably won't be oversized so yeah, it'll be fine.
Put my name down as Musod Ozsitnog, or whatever it randomly generates, not like I care.

Jollybastion is a nice mix of ASCII and graphics
Okay, we will be using Lazy Newb Pack Advanced with Jollybastion. The theme for this fortress is mechanical mayhem, with as many death traps, runaway minecarts, infinite power generators, and more fucking deathtraps you can pack in. I'll be writing my updates in-character as Dirk Fist, Supreme Overturd and foulmouthed ruler of this here fortress.
[editline]1st August 2013[/editline]
Tonight I'll get the game set up and then hopefully do my turn at school tomorrow/the next couple days.
cool, great fortress to set up my lead driver cannon.

I'm going on vacation in about a week though, so that might be an issue.
I think this quote from the wiki summarizes DF quite well.
"When an election happens, it's usually the dwarf with the highest social skills who gets elected. Since children have nothing to do but socialize, they gain lots of social skills which carry over when a child becomes an adult at age 12. Thus it's not unusual for a 12 year old to become mayor. Their chief competition is Vampires, who also tend to have high social skills. "
Count me in as a possible succession player please. I should be able to do one.
Also, I suggest that we don't try to make it too secure, as that makes it dull. Little mistakes and intentionally flawed designs are fun! (e.g. an accidental steel spear in a danger room and so on)
Just downloaded dwarf fortress lazy newb pack. Playing adventurer mode as a demi god master swordsman killing everything i see.
This might be unnecessary effort but I think it would be cool if Trekintosh uploaded the world file so that everyone who wanted to could look around for a sufficiently awesome start location and people could vote on which one to use.
I'll hold off putting my name down for a turn, not sure how busy i'm going to be for the next couple of weeks.

So my demi god master swords man just barely managed to finish off a fisherman before passing out. Because of the injuries after slaughtering half the town. Sadly though a group of trades came a killed me before i could do anything.
Consider playing fortress mode until the next update. The next update will make adventure mode much more interesting.
Can Scratch BrokenFingers be added to the dorf list :v:
There's a new [URL=http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=100851.msg4454200#msg4454200]Future of the Fortress[/URL] post.
Apparently trees are going to be incredibly moddable and "skulls are more powerful now".
Is it too late for me to join the Succession carnage? I would greatly enjoy such things.
Has Toady given any indication when the next release will be?
Dwarfing and turn list updated. We're going to be using the square Jolly Bastion because [B]FUCK[/B] non-square tile sets.
