This is a great game.

Planning on starting my own civ, but I should probably wait until the famine is over if I don't want to die immediately  :P

The trick is to only make predictions semi-seriously.  That way, I don't have a 98% failure rate. I have a 98% sarcasm rate.

Glad to know that people like it. From my point of view, my grid games look like ugly calculators. Its the mystery of it that brings forth its appeal and makes it seem so... Real. And the players have been good about causing drama, so I don't need to do that myself. I just needed to scare people a bit to keep them from getting too complacent.

I really need to figure out a way to be at least a little forgiving to new players though. The goal is to punish players who are not observant, not wipe out people before they even have a chance.

I guess I'll save my FP then.
Not that you would want fishy potato rain anyway. Something that heavy falling from as high up as the sky would be more like murder-comets anyway.
That's why I said small potatoes, so they would be less likely to kill people.

Turn 30 - Agrarian Age



Spoiler: Tiles (click to show/hide)

The very well advertised famine has begun! Hope you all are ready... Oh who am I kidding? Not all of you were ready.

Godly behaviors of particular note
No food-related weather happened. Food isn't weather. See the first post for rules regarding gifts.

The Nirii Dominion
2 people forage for wood at D2 using 2 junk tools (Not 3, that would be silly) to collect 5 wood.
4 people research Woodcutting tools
4 people research Diplomacy. As they now have higher progress on the tech than the common knowledge, the tech is now in the civilization spoiler.

Cultivating of Beans
3 people farm at K1 using 1 junk tool to collect 2 food.
2 people research Swamp Housebuilding
1 person prays to Blarg
1 person researches Rationing

Drecthul Commonwealth
4 people research Stone Housebuilding
5 people research Stone Tools

Arutz
4 people research mountain construction.
4 people research farm tools.
1 person forages at C4 to collect 0 food.
The Arutz quickly realize that Junk tools are worthless for aiding research.

Patterian Minds
4 people forage at G1 using junk tools to collect 2 food.
1 person forages at H1 to collect 0 food.

The Hamptons
2 people forage at J11 using 1 junk tool to collect 0 food.
2 people farm at J10 using 1 junk tool to collect 2 food.
2 people research forest survival.

Kaniarus
Can't stagnate during a famine. The Kaniarus still lose 5 food.

I double checked and can say with confidence that your people were not farming. The tech clearly states that you need to include the word "Farmland" for it to take effect. I have also been permitting the word "Farm" and probably should (and will) add that word to the tech.

The need to specify what you have is a trend with all of the new abilities you get. This is so that I don't need to "check" to see who can do what. I am trying to crack down on minor infractions like this one too in order to promote positive player behaviors.

The Arutz
5 farm D4 with 5 tools
2 research farming tools
2 research stone knapping/ stone gathering
While one of the farmers farm, it wonders, why can't you use junk tools for research?

I did the math, if snag and hasoc work together, i can stretch out ten turns of food, this is with four of my people on idle the whole time. and my one person not idling praying to one of them the whole time. And also if you can't use junk tools to boost prayer
And i have two questions,
1 how long is the famine going to last
and two, what is causing the famine. (I.E. is it a drought, a blight on the crops, or something else)

Well since Gilbert clearly has nothing better to do, how about updating ASCIIhood?
