Re: Preindustrial steampunk island
Some notes on a couple of the metals: Aluminum: Very hard to get the pure metal, can't be made from the same process to get iron (reduction with carbon). Titanium: Even worse to deal with than aluminum, as in addition to to needing a special process to get the pure metal, the pure metal has to be me...

Re: CCC Land Grab
It would probably be easiest to say the Batti developed right around the place that I picked for my civilization/group/whatever. Nice and warm, and should be plenty of food available, and it's easy to get to without having to worry about flying into a tree.

Re: CCC Land Grab
Can you save the map files as .png? .gif ruins the colors and is only really good for animated images. (also note that my .png climate map is about 1/5 the size of the .gifs)
It's hard to tell which squares are which species (and Rob's turned a color that isn't even marked in the key...)

Re: CCC Land Grab
I've changed some of the deserts, (mainly ones on the east coasts) the others I didn't really notice any (significant) in-blowing winds on, at least not for the winds+pressure areas that I put in which take into account the landmasses. I was a bit rushed when I was making it, so there might be some ...

Re: CCC Land Grab
I'm making a basic climate map out of the map here, note that I am assuming that 30 degrees north or south would be at 4.5 grid squares, not 4, (meaning there are 1.5 grid squares off the top and the bottom of the map that aren't shown) to avoid massive pinching at the poles. Once I'm done with that...

Re: CCC Species creation - BY SAT 2/8
I added/modified some stuff for the Batti, mainly in the behavior section, but also some stuff I forgot, like that they lay eggs and some vision details.

Re: CCC game - now Magic and genre discussion
But do any of the species so far even have godmodding powers? At least from what I've seen the abilities are pretty basic (stuff to keep their bodies warm+breathing help; the ability to find water and possibly predict the weather; limited travel to or through another world; some form of shapeshiftin...

Re: CCC Species creation - BY FRI 2/7
Pardon the unimaginative name... Name: Batti Description: The Batti resemble large bats, and are typically roughly 3 feet/90cm tall when fully grown, with a roughly 8 foot/240cm wingspan. They have fur colors ranging from gray to black, along with occasional browns, with various patterns in the fur ...

Re: CCC game - Voting rules discussion
I'd prefer lots of magic + fantasy, but don't really care too much. Another note: What sort of solar system is this planet in? Does it have a red dwarf star? A sun-like star? 2 stars? Is the planet actually a moon of a gas giant? If so, how many other moons does the gas giant have? If not, how many ...

Re: Floating colonies above an ice giant
Another note on the temperature: Nitrogen liquifies at 77K, while oxygen liquifies at 90K. If it's cold enough that the air itself is turning to a liquid, you do NOT want to be out in it. Then there's the fact that liquid oxygen has a tendency to cause things to burn quite vigorously, even at the lo...

For the continent voting, can we have the votes be based on the design of the continents themselves, and not the prettiness of the maps, to make it so the voting doesn't end up being a "pick the best drawer" contest? to some degree I am in agreement: but, on the other hand, the quality <as opposed ...

Re: CCC game - Voting rules discussion
1: Open to everyone
2: No
On a side note, if only non-participants can vote, then it's impossible to vote for your own work, so the result of the second question doesn't even matter in that case.

Re: Competitive collaborative conworld - CONTINENTS NEEDED
And here's another continent (or is it 2 colliding continents?) in yet another style:
Rivers and lakes not added, but it should be easy to figure out where the rivers go. Where the lakes go will probably depend on how much rain an area gets.
