1. Check the thread for updates from the former leader. As soon as his turn finished, ask for his savegame. If the former leader already finished his turn and/or passed his savegame, you have 24 hours to download the game, thank the former leader and confirm that you recieved the savegame by posting it in the thread. If you do not respond in time, you are disqualified from the game, the savegame is passed to the next person on the list and you may apply for the next team fortress.
2. Start your game. You have 72 hours (aka 3 days) to play one ingame year from spring to spring. Follow the rules that are listed above. Make notes and screenshots of the fort and wrap everything into a nice little story so you can once tell this story to your grandchildren.
3. As soon as you read the announcement "Spring has arrived!", save the game, make your final thoughts and updates and pass the savegame to the next person on the list. To do so, you have to zip the files upload it to http://www.speedyshare.com and post the link to the zip-file in the forum or pass it via PM to the next person on the list (as written in this post). If you pass the savegame via PM, confirm that you sent the message and when you sent it.
4. If a ruler can't manage to play one ingame-year within the given time, he has to save the game, and pass it to the next person just like he would do when he would have finished his year. The next player can finish the year and play his own year. This does not include an increase of playtime.
5. If the next ruler on the list does not respond within 24 hours, confirm it in this thread and send the savegame to the next person on the list.
6. Feel free to comment or criticize the leadership of everyone and complain about how everything keeps getting worse and that the golden ages have gone after the year under you as the ruler of the fort.
