  1. Cool, 2 minutes ago lizardcake
  2. My thumbs up votes pondkit
  3. I think Polly means u can either like Swift or Pond to vote it or suggest another name others can vote on. Or maybe u can do both (vote yes on one name, and then suggest a new name for ppl to vote on too.
  4. Hello September 19th Blizzard (Berney)! Revive?
  5. oooo I love Werewolf the board game. Save me a spot! I do have a couple questions tho. Is a day an actual rl day? Or can it be less than a day or stretched out over multiple days? Also you do have the basic roles, (which is probably all we can afford since usually not enough ppl join rps), but minions (people who try and help the werewolves and confuse other ppl) especially add something to the game.
  6. You snuck through the grass towards the weird structures. They were so tall they were constantly before you stretching into the sky. And then...the grass became cleared grass before you, a large field of it. And another odd structure in the distance...but not a tall one. -Investigate the structure -Retreat back into the grasses -Examine the short cleared grass -Keep going toward the structures
  7. (hmmm the voting sounds interesting, if I want to officially join do I give the thumbs up?? Also if I agree on name do I like it?
  8. Days 10-11 The group spots an odd wanderer in the grasses as they run from the bear. There isn't really time to say hello, which Ember is relieved about. The last thing they need is another mouth to feed. Seeing they don't have enough food to feed everyone (and really very hungry), Raana reaches for an odd looking berry bush. Smelling the poisonous berries on her, Gray Eyes yells for her to stop, but she eats the berries anyway and immediately gets a severe stomach ache. Gray Eyes explains to the group the berries are poisonous, and Raana will be sick for a while as the berries wreck havoc on her body but will recover. Julie sniffs around for something to eat...and smells a few strange and dangerous scents, but also, prey! Ember also smells that strange nicheling again...and she goes over so that she would be the first one he talks to if he approaches the group. He doesn't seem very social, appearing to ignore and avoid the group as he stands at the edge of the water. Knowing they are still short on food, Ember attempts to dig up something edible she smells beneath the surface. But she is unsuccessful. The tribe successfully hunts one stagmole, but the second one sees Raana coming and retreats beneath the surface. Grey Eyes collects the one berry on the frozen bush, but no more berries have grown. He attempts to destroy it to get at the undeveloped berries to feed the tribe, but isn't strong enough. After scaring away one stagmole, Raana tries again with Julie's instruction and support. She's successful, and less of the tribe go hungry that turn.
  9. (So how does this work? Do you have to be online at the exact time it starts and how long do you have to stay online? Trying to figure out if I'll have time to join)
  10. (This is an actually active forums rp it appears! Good for you all. I might just lurk here sometimes and watch the storyline develop, that is if I have time... also are you still accepting npc submissions?)
  11. You walked through the grasses, away from the rest of the group. -Sniff and listen -Go towards the odd high structures -Look for some trees -Other
  12. It's like lizardcake said. The off-topic and general forums under strayfawnstudios are blue, and the section about Niche is green. Wandering Village is like purple or something. I actually didn't know you could set it to be one color! But the different colors are actually beneficial to tell what section of the forums you are on
  13. Lenla: -join the food gathering group -join the exploring group -explore on your own -follow the nicheling that snuck off
  14. (lol that's OK, I meant your new character, I'll play the old as npc)
  15. I can see why you guys want this to continue! (Haven't even visited the actual playthrough thread yet, but a lot of work was put into this!) I would def continue if others with Observation Programmes/zoos did too, otherwise that kinda defeats the purpose.
  16. (Sorry it took so long for me to get to restarting this...hope anyone who wanted to play when I asked before still wants to but if not just let me know.) Baby sitter wanted for my two children. I'm working two jobs and not home often enough to care for them. Pay is decent, $20 an hour (forgive me if that's unrealistic lol I have no idea how much babysitters are paid). Located on the north side of town. (you can choose where you're apartment?? is located, of course you can't change it afterward without moving...) If interested please call me at (insert phonenumber here) -Call them -Look at related ads to find something a bit different -Go back to the last page -Other (I guess you should choose which group she is currently with and what she is currently doing to start)
  17. I did end up restarting the computer, and now that I have internet I have opened Niche just fine, today! Thanks both of you for your help and for taking the time to reply to this. I do think it was probably some temp files that restarting got rid of.
  18. Too late. Steam is quicker than me...now do I try starting in offline mode or do I try shutting the computer down until I reach a place with wifi
  19. Also I think I should start it in online mode the first time this time but just realized my computer isn't picking up a wifi signal...oh well. may have to shut it down before steam freaks out.
  20. I was kinda scared that restarting this thing would break it somehow (it's a weird computer) but after checking settings I think it'll be alright. Restarting now.
  21. So while I'm waiting for an answer about my Niche not opening problem, I've decided to go ahead and do something I should've done a long time ago... Write down the rules to my Warrior Cats challenge. When I first started the challenge I said it was a mix between my Cat challenge and @Kittylover16063's Ultimate Warrior Cats Challenge. With @Sky's WC generators. I neglected to even post links to these things even though I tried to remind myself with underscores like so ______ . And as I have gone on with it I have ended up more winging it and adding rules that made sense to me. (And I have forgotten and/or disobeyed for plot purposes others). Now that I'm coming back to it (hopefully if I can fix Niche) I wanted to write down the rules for myself, and I figure you guys should have access to them as well to be able to use them in your own Niche Warrior Cats worlds. So, here they are: Setup: Is kinda like the Cat Challenge, link to that here: https://strayfawnstudio.com/community/index.php?/topic/12134-cat-challenge/#comment-273514 Start on any island you feel comfortable with. (Or, like I did in Remnant Clan, randomize your starting island. I was really thrown a curveball by starting on Sleepy Reeds!) Make your creatures: Face genes allowed are purr face, normal snout, spit-snout, and big nose. One of your cats can have saber tooth fangs in one slot if you so wish. Each cat must have one face gene spot occupied by purr snout, and a couple should have both slots occupied. Allowed bodies are medium body, big body, and lean body. Paws must be randomized, but forbidden ones are mammut foot, wings, and bat wings. You must have normal hind legs. You can have medium tail, fisher tail, or stinky tail. No horns are allowed. You can only have normal or bearyena ears. Immunity genes, hemophilia, eye genes (blindness), and fertility must all be randomized. You can do whatever you wish with cosmetic genes. The other setup settings are drawn originally from the Ultimate Warrior Cats Challenge, but I adjusted them some. (check damage multipliers) Pregnancy duration: Set to 1 in order to have litters, but queens will have to wait to have their litter and/or sit on a nest for at least 3 days [more on that under pregnancy and birth below]. Baby: 2 Child: 4 Teen: 12 Adult: was 80 before, now it's 90 (but the extra 10 days are added to elder lifespan [more on that under elder stage below], which I thought was too short in the original challenge) (more here later, but Imma write down the most important and detailed rules first) Other setup/finding a camp: You must try and find a camp with an outer border and dens if possible. Also a stump or rock for leader to call meetings on. Here are the different dens: Nursery (required): Where queens give birth to and raise their kits. It must have an outer border at the least of rocks, berry bushes, (basically things that a creature can't move through or stand atop) and ideally an inner border between it and the rest of camp. A permenant nest would be ideal as well, though you can always make one if neccesary. Medicine Cat Den (required): Where the medicine cat sleeps and nurses the sick and injured back to health. Warrior den (required) Apprentice den Leader den How a day goes: At the start of each new niche day (moon) you use this handy dandy generator made by @Sky: https://perchance.org/wcc3-orig To roll for events, Starclan propecies, and Dark Forest events (select these from the drop-down menu and click let Starclan decide once for each one). You could also make your own based on Ultimate Warrior Cats Challenge rules, but there were so many options and it was so complicated not even I wanted to do that. So thank you Sky for making this! I couldn't do my WC challenge without it. I also know someone else was working on one. Go to the UWCC thread to check it out. Warriors trian apprentices, hunt, and defend the clan if neccesary. Do story-related things too! Hunting and food rules: You are not allowed to eat any plant material, only meat. Meat includes but is not limited to: rabbils, crabbits, stagmoles, leeches, fish (including razarona and clown kois), clams, and dodomingos. You may eat bearyena meat if the bearyena is dead before you found it or killed in defence of the clan (though that is fairly rare since bearyena "retreat" under the rules of the challenge). If you do chase a fleeing bearyena and kill them you cannot eat the meat, but if the bearyena is chasing one of your cats and attacking them, you can (the rules also apply to killer bearyena, apes, and balance bears). You also cannot hunt the walrus deer, but you can scavenge if you find them already dead. You may eat ramfoxes if killed in defence, though hunting them is in most cases not allowed. Since it is hard to get enough food for your tribe under these rules, you can also hunt a different way with your cats. Warriors can go out hunting. This is how it works: To hunt a cat must go to a spot outside of camp. A warrior or apprentice may hunt once per turn unless they spend gems hunting (you must go to the next day with them having gems still remaining, however many they spent on hunting). To hunt you first roll two dice or a random number generator from 1-12 for luck. Then you add up any bonuses the cat gets from experiance, skill, location, and other factors. And finally, you subtract based upon negative factors, weather, season, sickness, pregnancy, lack of experiance, and so on. The cat must get a certian number (specific to that island and your chosen difficulty level) or above to have a successful hunt. On my current playthrough it is an 8 in spring and a 10 in winter (and that's in a mountain island). You may want to start out with 6 or above. You then roll again for how much prey the cat catches. 1-6, being the amount of food added. Again you add any bonuses and subtract any negative factors (though they are different bonuses and negative factors). Location factors are about being on a tile next to an object that prey is more likely to be hiding in, such as a bush, clover patch, or rock. Or a place that prey is likely to be absent in, such as the border of camp. You add up all bonuses of the tiles sorrounding the tile you are on (plus the tile you are standing on for some objects). Here is a list of all location factors. Each one can have a different bonus or debuff for prey success, and prey catch size (number). Sucess has an S and is first, catch size has an N and is listed second. Berry bush +2 S +2 N Clover Patch (standing on) +2 S +0 N Clover Patch (each sorrounding tile) +1 S +1 N Rock +1 S +2 N Grass patch (standing on) +2 S +1 N Rabbil Burrow (standing on) -1 S +4 N Rabbil Burrow (tile next to/sorrounding tile) +0 S +3 N Rabbil Burrow (2 tiles away/a tile between) +1 S +2 N Permenant Nest (outside camp, whether you stand on it or are next to it): +2 S +3 N Shriveled berry bush +1 S +0 N Twig Bush +1 S +0 N Cactus +0 S +1 N Stump (tile next to/surrounding tile) +0 S +3 N Stump (standing on) -2 S +5 N Here is a list of other factors, and how they effect both catch success and number. If it isn't there, then it adds or subtracts nothing. Winter (if you haven't added 2 to the number needed for prey success): -2 S Snowing: -1 S -2 N Snow on the ground (one step above a thin coating): -2 S -2 N Snowdrifts (your nicheling has to clear snow to be able to walk on a tile): -3 S +2 N Strength No strength (stat is at 0): -2 S -1 N Little Strength: (1-2): -1 S +0 N Below Average strength (3): +0 S +0 N Average Strength: (4): +1 S +0 N Above Average strength (5-6): +2 S +1 N Good Amount of Strength (7-8): +3 S +2 N Impressive Strength: (9-10): +2 S +3 N Super Strength (11+): -1 S +2 N Common Cold (depends on the severity rolled by dice) (1) Very Mild: -1 S (2) Mild: -1 S -1 N (3) Moderate: -2 S -1 N (4) Nearly Severe: -3 S -2 N (5) Severe: -4 S -3 N (6) Deathly Ill: Cannot hunt at all Pregnancy First moon (moon of pregnancy): No debuffs or buffs Second Moon: -2 S -1 N Third Moon: -4 S -3 N Fourth Moon (moon of birth): Not allowed to hunt at all. Experience (applies to warriors only, from the time they got their warrior name forward): Less than 5 moons: -2 S -2 N Between 6 and 10 moons: -1 S -1 N 11 moons to 15 moons: No buffs or debuffs 16 moons to 25 moons: +1 S +1 N 26 moons to 30 moons: +2 S +1 N 31 moons to 40 moons: +2 S +2 N 40 moons or more: +3 S +2 N Skill/training: Apprentice specific buffs and debuffs: Pregnancy and birth: When any she-cat becomes pregnant, either by you breeding her with a tom or a rogue male breeding successfully, you roll for the amount of kits she will have. Roll 1-6, with the number rolled being the number of kits. You may roll right away or roll when she is about to give birth. The queen must wait 3 moons to give birth. Mainly have the queen hang out in camp and the nursery during this time.

  22. So I'm sad right now because it turns out...it's not just offline mode. Niche won't start period. If anyone knows anything that could help please reply here: Also I really should stop posting on this and get a real home thread, shouldn't I?
  23. I tried to open up Niche for the first time in months this week and after waiting a few minutes there's no sign of the game actually opening. Usually the application shows up in the task bar within seconds or maybe a minute at most, but now nothing. Steam shows Niche being open and playing (it said yesterday I played it about 13 minutes, and .1 hour so far this week has been added to my playtime) but it won't open so I can actually play Niche! It updated yesterday, and I thought that might fix the problem, but it hasn't. Unsure if it has something to do with savefiles, (maybe a conflict between the savefiles on my desktop and laptop?), update, or the several times I've tried to open Niche offline and online. Been running it today for about 10 minutes, still nothing. I've tried turning off and on my computer, task manager closing steam and Niche, running Niche as administrator, and running Niche in offline and online mode. I don't know if I should take more drastic measures (uninstalling or restoring to a previous version?) or if that would even help.
  24. (I will be updating my other playthroughs as soon as I figure out what was going on with them, but for now here's a quick RemnantClan post. Hope you enjoy! (And I won't lie, this is one of my favorite playthroughs...but seeing as it's tied with Prehistoric Salt Black and White (+Ketchup) and the one beating them is one that I literally have no idea what's going on...I figured something was better than nothing) Enjoy!) Moon 20: Poor Lightkit had been pretty traumatized by the birth of his siblings during the fox attack. The birth was fairly rough, and though all the kits made it thanks to Turtlemist’s expert care Shingingsun couldn’t help herself from screaming. The first time he actually saw his siblings, he didn’t seem very interested, calling them “pink blobs”. But now that he saw them growing into kits, he asked to play with them. (ignore Fernstar, this is the best one of all the kits I have) “But why can’t they play?” he nagged, “All they do is sleep all the time!” “When you were this young, you didn’t play much either. Give them time, they’ll grow.” Shingingsun gently scolded, her litter sleeping at her side. “But I’m bored! I’ve only ever had Stonekit to play with,” he said. Stonekit swished his tail, narrowing his eyes. Shingingsun frowned, nearly sighing, it is understandable, he is awful cooped up in this nursery, and since the kits have been born I haven’t had much time to spend with him. “I mean, you’re not that boring,” said Lightkit to Stonekit, “you’re pretty fun actually. It’s just I’m always doing the same things…” “Yeah, you’re right,” said Stonekit, “it would be nice to have new playmates.” “These kits are still too young and too fragile,” said Turtlemist, “they’re only a couple weeks old, and you’re much bigger and older. In fact, maybe you’re even getting too old for the nursery.” Shiningsun took a good look at her kit, Turtlemist was right, he was awful big, and Stonekit wasn’t far behind. “Really?” asked Lightkit, suddenly excited, “Does that mean-” Turtlemist looked at Shiningsun, and she nodded, “Yes,” he said, “I’ll talk to Fernstar.” “Today is an important day in Remnant Clan,” began Fernstar, “Two kits are ready to enter into the next stage of their life. Lightkit, Stonekit, step forward.” Lightkit held his head high, his eyes shining. Stonekit seemed a bit anxious. Shiningsun watched her kit with pride, (Turtlemist watching her new litter for the moment), and Fernstar felt the same pride for her son. She reassured him with a small smile before continuing. “You have both reached the age of at least six moons, and are ready to become an apprentice. From this day on, you will be known as Lightpaw, and Stonepaw,” she nodded at each kit as she said their respective names, “Lightpaw, your mentor will be Rootclaw. I hope he will pass down everything he knows to you. “Rootclaw, come forward. You trained Snowbridge well, and are ready to take on a new apprentice, I hope you will train Lightpaw with the same skill and vigor. May you pass on your loyalty and fighting techniques.” Lightpaw and Rootclaw touched noses, then Fernstar continued, “Stonepaw, your mentor will be Redfish. I hope he will pass down everything he knows to you. Redfish, come forward. You have worked hard and loyally as the clan’s deputy through our challenging formative years, and spent many years as a warrior before that. You have experience and honor, I hope you will pass these things on to your apprentice.” Stonepaw slowly turned to touch noses with his mentor, and Redfish patiently waited before touching noses with his new apprentice. “Lightpaw! Stonepaw!” chanted the clan before cats moved in to congratulate the two new apprentices. Hope flickered in Fernstar as she watched her clanmates. Despite their challenges, the clan was growing. She just hoped she wouldn’t let them down.
  25. So I found screenshots from both Prehistoric Salt and Remnant Clan, plus some Nicheling Observation Programme, (mainly family tree) shots. Next I must see if I have up to date saves!
