Everything's been such a whirlwind. And now, you've found yourself in a new place to call home.
Your grandfather's farm, overgrown, with only a decrepit greenhouse and a tiny house for you. And yet, you see endless possibilities. You could be very happy here.

Your eyes sparkle as you imagine the farm after some hard work and elbow grease. Fields of crops, barns of animals, trees bearing fruit instead of just dropping acorns and pine cones everywhere.

It's a big change from the city life. Here, it seems like everyone knows everyone. Talk about a small town vibe. Right now, you're the outsider, but you look forward to building relationships with the people you call your neighbors. You hope to call them friends soon too.

But some of them caution you - not all is right in this seemingly peaceful village. Fellow farmers cast disdainful looks at a large, shiny building as they talk to you about the value of selling your produce, and how everyone should appreciate the family farm. You haven't been here long enough to decide your own feelings on Jojamart. There's an run-down community center that intrigues you. And a mine - you're cautioned that the mine is dangerous, which intrigues you. You'll wait and see - before you can think about any of that, you have to learn how to be a farmer!

Welcome to Stardew Valley, your new home, chaperoned by myself, @Dinashadow, and @kaydubs!

Theme: Stardew Valley
Cycle Timing: 36/12 accelerating to 12/12 later in the game
Setup: role madness, closed.
Participation Requirements: 10 posts per 36/12 cycle, 5 per 12/12.
Start Date: 1/31 or slightly later depending on how signups go.

Please note that the mods have a Zero Patience Threshold (ZPT) for incivility and unsportsmanlike behavior. If we see this in our game, you will be removed from gameplay without warning. We put this rule in the sign up thread so it isn’t a surprise at the start of the game. If you cannot abide by this, don’t sign up. Keep it friendly and civil, or keep your lips ZPT. Any questions about this policy can be directed to shorty.

We have no set player minimum, but please only sign up if you can be an active participant!

SIDECARS ARE AN OPTION IN THIS GAME. What the heck is a sidecar? Doesn't sound very farmy. A sidecar is a chance for a noob to sit on the tractor with a veteran and hear their words of wisdom (or screams) about the game. If you want to take a sidecar, please indicate this on your sign up. Nooblets who want to sidecar can add themselves to the appropriate list.

(music for ambiance)



It is now time to sign up. Sign ups will close when the mods feel is appropriate.

What exactly is a sidecar? I’d love to play again but I could not keep up with the bowling game. Not sure if I should just wait for another noob game. I also work 9-6 most days with a measly 30 minute lunch so I’m not the most active

Sidecars get to hang out in the role PM of a veteran and can ask them questions about strategy and stuff! It's basically a souped-up version of totting.

I think Assassination Classroom will overlap with this but with 36/12 cycles that should be fine.

Assassination Classroom isn't running until the late spring/beginning of the summer now.
Oh darn! Well, that just means I'll spend all my time on this game, assuming I don't die early on.

Sidecars are not secretaries, April. If you want a WW secretary, get a second job and take out an add in the classified section, like the rest of us.

Wanted: Person with good reading and note taking skills. Must adapt to online personas quickly and be able to read tone in an online forum game and convey a summary of those messages back to me with brevity. Must have good typing proficiency, and be able to make my online persona adhere to the following rules: 1. Be wolfy but not too wolfy. 2. Be interesting but not memorable. 3. Be funny but don’t make people laugh. Must have a knack for lying and for catching other people in lies. $9.50/hr starting, with bonuses on successful conquests and room to advance into your own WW persona. Vacation, overtime, and medical. No vision or dental. Expected to work nights and weekends.
