succession mod, there's still time to join
« on: May 01, 2015, 09:11:14 am »

vjmdhz is currently working on there turn

Alright, so I read about this somewhere, I'm not quite sure where. The idea is we take turns building a mod, by tweaking or adding, but not destroying anything.

Rules

So here are the rules, we start with a df file with only basic raws meaning plants, inorganics, reactions, buildings, tissue templates, descriptors,  body detail plans, and maybe some others, dfhack installed. each turn is four (4) real life days, then after the person's turn is up they post it on dffd for the next person to take there turn, then repeat. you may make small tweaks for compatibility but you can't outright destroy, rename, or any way deface the people before you's work. you are required to add a mega-beast named after you. Once your turn is up please write a short summary of what you did.

Signing up

Just post below if you want to sign up, If you want a certain spot just say so I will try to accommodate you. If for some reason you can't take your turn/can't complete your turn you will be readded to the list at the end, if you so wish.

Turns

1.drone1230 Did not complete
2.Urist McCoder Half done
3.FlameandFury Needs another turn
4.snail555 Did not complete
5.drone1230 skipped
6.ruludos skipped
7.vjmdhzgrcurrent
8.endlessblaze
9.Urist McFluffles

11.Eric Blank
12.souleater17
13.flameandfury

I'll take a turn. Also, if we can modify or destroy any vanilla files, why not just start from scratch? I think something similar to that was done before and turned out fine.

Hi. I like modding DF and this seems nice. I've really been quite new to the forums and haven't tried out succession games. May I be third, please?

I'd love to do this, but DFFD doesn't really work with me. I tried signing up and the email never got sent, but its still marked my email account as having an account already. Would any alternative upload methods be alright? I probably wouldn't join immediately anyway as I've got some difficult stuff going on right now, but it'd be nice to know for the future.

So will you be supplying the dwarf fortress copy or should I create one and delete all the raws except for the ones you specified?

I'll supply the file. Also once someones turn is done they need to post a quick update on what they did. The first turn will start on Monday morning.

I recommend though that you not refer to turn starts by weekday as this forum is international with people in many different time zones so going by hours or days+hours is probably a better bet.
IE:
The first turn will start on Monday morning (5/1/2015)
I am currently on 5/1/2015 which for me is Friday and the day is nearly done.
While I don't intend to take a turn it is probably better to get this straight now.

Hm, have you considered murder?  It's either that or letting it go.

Thank you so much, I never would have thought of that.
Edit I meant to type 5/4/2015 not 5/1/2015
