@Ascendant In a way, yes, but to be honest I consider pottery to be something that is in generally teh ability to form clay and fire it to make containers for fluids and solids in any way, shape or form you want it. As such, skulls and seashells aren't as much pottery as realy life primates using leaves to drink water and such.

And believe me I have the same worries as you. I want this to be fair and fun, but you'll see when the tech tree is gonna be shown. Which will be tomorrow, because I want to make it look sexy and not just useful XD.

Also @Schylerwalker, yes I will. That will be denoted for everyone after each turn (if they have gaioned any pops) in the Events hider. Spoilers, 4 weeks is not enough to make babies, but that might change soon enough.

ALSO ALSO, I'll fit in one more post right now seeing everybody posted! Time to get rolling now that we've got the core players in here and we're armed with our wuush wuushes!

@Crusader Lord *pat pat*

Hehe, I'm just pulling your leg buddy ^^
I know what you meant, though my fancy little calendar is supposed to be 7 days, then denoting what week is it, and cycle is simply the year. Of course, feel free to change that, but I'm gonna stick to my day/week/year timing myself. naturally different cultures will percieve time differently.

@6slyboy6 oh, it was day of the week, not day of total days. God that's gonna make keeping track so much easier... I was wondering why you did it like this.

@Crusader Lord Did you know that this wikipedia link existed? I prety much leaned back, cherry picked what I liked the most and grouped them together. Right now I'd say we're on a very basic level, but I doN't have illusions about our civilizations advancing at a far more rapid rate than normal humans, at least until we finally meet others or establish a somewhat comfortable lfiestyle. After all, that's when inventions stagnate in the face of sustained weelfare :D

@Odin Haha, yep. Actually, my family used to keep track of time like that for a while, at least a distant part of them did. I always thought it was funny and unique, so here it is now, in play ^^

Wait, no, I knew we were missing someone. I haven't seen anything from @MonkeyBusiness yet! Are you okay buddy? Should we be expecting our mountain lizards?

It is actually reasonable to make intentionally progression towards certain techs, assuming people don't try to blitz everything at once. But it would also be kind of cool for technology to develop in one race and spread to others eventually, but that might occur naturally.

@6slyboy6 How far can we go exactly when it comes to developments in posts? Can we show rudimentary signs of a tech/development we hope to see, or just show attempts at making developments. In my case: the feighd attempting to make fire through magic, would writing that they are trying to do this without showing any early successes in a post be sufficient, or would I be permitted to showcase early successes and usage of said magically-generated fire?

It would make things a lot easier to read if everyone's names were either separated by a space, or made bold.

@6slyboy6

*Remembers how much the Crowe have liked storms*

*Remembers the Monsoon season is a mass amount of storm*

(O_O)

Bois, we about to get some serious primitive religion developing up in this place. Maybe. Will be fun to see. XD

---

Other than that, my general plan for this round (i don't mind admitting it, it is exciting anywho) will prob focus around:

1. More work being done to fortify the rocky outcropping the Crowe live in, since they'll at least recall enough of the weather from at least the prior year to freak out a bit and try to get inventive. Somewhat tied to the making of a shelter, perhaps rudimentary buildings.

I took and will be taking inspiration from ancient stone buildings from stone age or other close time periods, which basically just used stones fitted to a "T" to make some very solid homes. I think it came from somewhere in what is now Scotland, perhaps around the coast? Been a while since i looked it up.

Either way, this will be an interesting experience to apply some history nerd knowledge.

2. Some hunting and foraging focuses, to perhaps grind up some food for the coming storms. I feel the Crowe, having found wild mushrooms and such, might get some ideas with the hunting getting tougher due to the coming storms. Might see some traps coming on as well, even, and working on things in the weapons department at least in regards to hunting.

3. Other than that, the rudimentary pottery-ish still could see a highlight, depending, though the rainy season might not be so kind to that potentially. Otherwise, would have to just see what feels natural for the Crowe to do or maybe come across in the situation, just like any of the other races. :P

@6slyboy6 Sorry I haven't posted yet. My wife is having some medical stuff right now and I am having to deal with that. I will have a post up when I can. Probably will have a post skimming over their early weeks and going to the most current events.

@MonkeyBusiness That is perfectly understandable buddy, I hope that your wife will feel bettern soon!

@Crusader Lord Yes, give me more lesbian huntresses dancing in the rain and religion! I had a distinct feeling your race in particular would love this event haha

@Tal Hmmm... great question, it is one that I've been thinking about for a while now. And honestly, do whichever makes sense for your post. I don't want to limit your creative freedom and imagination by saying you can only write things that may happen, because that would make for boring posts. But really, as long as what you write is not over the top, then it should be fine.

And once I finally show the tech tree I've been working on, as long as it isn't straight up contradicting/advancing that (since it contains mostly broad terms) then you are fine.

Thus far we are all sort of advancing in the same direction and at the same speed. I suppose that means also that we have nothing that really sets us apart so far. Hopefully that would change once we start meeting other civilizations!

@Tal Do you happen to have the original for the image you use as a header? I could clean it up to remove the white outline a little, if you'd like?
