I can only play on a land with lots o trees... well, typically an easy map...
And i dont have to use reveal...

I suggested this ages ago.
And reveal is for losers >:0

I'm in.
Expect ludicrous architecture if I'm anywhere near the begining.
I have a habit of tacking rooms on randomly, or else building workshops in the middle of a huge hollowed out cavern that also doubles as my mine.

Starting a list of players, should I draw straws to determine order or should we go by post order?

Post order due to me loving the initial build phase
Also we should use reveal to choose the site, just to add interestingness.

No reveal. If we ♥♥♥♥ up I want to watch us try and migrate our dwarves from one side of the map to the other just to get closer to the useful ores.

I'm talking about the map selection tool. I hate reveal. Dwarf Prospector or something. Reveals magma underground streams etc.

Oh, I really want us to get the luck of the draw, you can guarantee magma by choosing an area with a decent amount of obsidian can't you?

That IS what makes the game fun.

I would join, but my ability to manage an army is terrible. I can go to IRC and get the play-by-play still, right?

Edit: I vote you draw straws to see who goes when.

I have never managed an army, and I am going to be playing.

Hell, I've never seen a goblin so far...

EDIT: Get in #df I want to start this thing today.

EDIT 2: I need to work this so that I am not playing two turns at once (I started a DF thread on another forum and there's a succession being organized there too, they have a small 64x64 map generated for us to look around on until we chose starting.) otherwise it maybe get confusing.

i can't access IRC right now. i'll pm you about that. until then please add me to the list.

Sign me up for great military future outposts way before they're necessary. All the fun is driving the fortress into the ground investing in ludicrous ventures, whee.

sign me up so I can ruin everything please

No, BAD, you break it, you repay it with making a better fortress and being possibly being raeped by the pyromaniacs of this Forums!

Actually I guess you just revert the save if someone really really messes things up.

this is way more true than you'd think

the funnest is when people are competant, not actively trying to fail but hilariously overambitious and completely not caring about previous rulers' intentions
