Basically I will use DF Tweak to make the fortress start off with as many dwarfs as there are people that join and it will be like Survivor. then the teams will work together to make a wall to split the map in half and then the game begins. There is going to be a "air lock" to trade between the teams. There are also going to be challenges like: who can make the most of a type of item in a certain amount of time and others. the team that loses the challenge then votes on this thread (or PM me if people want no one else to know) who they want to kick off the team and then that player will be killed somehow. Also all dwarfs start off with no skills.
there are going to be 2 teams:
The Carp
The Elephants
To join to most:
Name your dwarf
what you want to bring with you (200 Points)
what team you want to be on
also you can use some of your points with someone else to bring a item that is more then 200.
your dwarf will then be added.
Note: if there is too many dwarfs on one team I will have to make them even.
also you can PM someone on your team or me if you want your dwarf to do something that you don't want anyone else to know about ;).
Pictures will be uploaded after there is enough players.

Team: The Carp
Items: 1 copper pick, 20 plump helmet spawn, 10 turtle, 15 tower cap logs, 10 dwarven beer, 1 copper crossbow, 1 horse leather armor, 1 horse leather helm, 1 horse leather leggings. (That comes to 195 points. I think.)
Edit: On second thoughts, if team The Carp ends up too popular I'll happily change to The Elephants.

15 plump helmets, 1 copper pick, 15 turtle, 15 dwarven wine, 15 dwarven ale, 10 plump helmet (plant), 3 pig tail seeds
Team: Elephants

Name: Snuffs
Team: Elephants
Items:
- 1 copper pick
- 5 rock nuts
- 5 sweet pod seeds
- 5 cave wheat seeds
- 5 dimple cup spawn
- 10 rhesus macaque leather
That should leave 110 points, which can go into our team's steel battle axe pool. If it turns out we aren't allowed to pool for more expensive items, or we don't need that many points, I'll pick some more stuff to embark with.
Edit:
Oh, uh, what I want him to do? Farming, I guess. Well, farming, threshing and cooking. -dwarven sugar roasts- for everyone!

- 20 Dwarven Rum: 40 (95)
- 10 Dwarven Beer: 20 (115)

I'll put the last 60 into the steel axe pool.
I was using DF to get all the costs but if I got soemthing wrong let me know and I'll fix it.
Also, just to repeat myself: Woo!
EDIT: Labors? Okay, lessee.
I s'pose it really depends upon the amount of people joining, but I would lean towards masonry/stonecrafting/engraving/mechanics.

Name - Ruddles
Team - Elephants
As the third member of our glorious team, I do say I will give 190 points to compliment Mr. Snuff's pool so that we may purchase an axe. With my last 10, I would enjoy...
+7 Pig Tail Seeds. (7 pts)
+1 Tower Cap Log. (3 pts)
As for labour, I would enjoy weaving/dying/tailoring. I could also cut wood/mine (I notice we have two pickaxes and no miner, unless the good butterfly decides to chip stone). I'll do whatever is necessary to make The Elephants triumph!
Also, a question. Are immigrants allowed/what is the minimum amount you will start with? Please, explain further into this realm.

Items:
10 turtles (20 pts)
10 rock nuts (10 pts)
10 sweet pod seeds (10 pts)
10 Plump Helmet (40 pts)
2 cats (22 pts) [we can bring animals, right?]
That's 102 points. I contribute my remaining 98 points to the group pool if we need something expensive. Otherwise, I'll pick more stuff later.

well I think the minimum should be around 5 people per a team but more is always good and immigrants would be "go to a better place" if you know know what I mean unless someone would like to claim a peasant as their character. also at one point the two groups may go together and more stuff will happen (still thinking about it).

Oh yeah, I forgot to say that I'd be willing to work as a miner as well whenever necessary. Anything to speed up large digging projects.

Preferably a female dwarf. named kyterra. Will do work towards leather working/tanning/butchery. With leatherworking and tanning being focus, and butchery if no one else is doing it. Will adjust that later if needed.
Items-
15 units of rum
20 units of fox leather(or other 5 point leather)
Rest willing to pool towards something, if nothing to pool for use points on:
Horse leather armor
horse leather helm
horse leather high boot
horse leather leggings
and one last fox leather(or other 5 point leather)
Post by: DFNewb on January 07, 2009, 09:08:10 pm
what's that mean? are you starting now?
yes I am starting now
from my count there are eleven of you
including Hawklaser
Also since the Elephants outnumber the Carp they will start off with a Random Free Item
EDIT: basically the Carp just got a whole bunch of extra stuff them their normal (but only an extra 200 points of stuff is as much as if there was another Carp)
EDIT2: because the elephants had so much extra points I gave them 2 pig tail ropes, 2 horse leather bags, and for Jack_Bread I got him 4 stacks of [30] steel bolts
Post by: Hawklaser on January 07, 2009, 09:34:51 pm
Also will there still be invaders? As that could make for some interesting events, and would change how people will want to do things.
Something to do with the imigrants might be to make a small fort in the air lock to keep and protect any extra pesants that show up for late comers. Also could use them to construct things for chalenges as well.
EDIT: Let jack use the leather armor I purchased if he wants, as that will be best use for it starting out.
Elephant Item tally
15 plump helmet spawn
2 copper pick
15 turtle

Also our side I noticed doesnt have all that much food, which we will need to take care of quickly. We do have a good supply of seeds, and possibly hunting to fix that.
Noticed I forgot to include our 21 peices of fox leather in the list as well, fixing that now.
