                      ~spruce forest gopher ring~
       
       it's early, and you find yourself in a part of the woods
       you don't remember. the mist-clouded sunlight peeks
       through the branches of minahikwak. it smells like melting
       snow, and sap, and moss.
       
       in these woods, you find other creatures coming to greet
       you. tawaw, wanderer, to the spruce forest.
       
   DIR go to a random tree!
   DIR see who's in the ring
       
       to add your hole, send an email to:
       emily att tilde.pink
       
       include a link to your gopherhole and a short,
       one-word username that will be used in the ring!
       
       for example:
       > hi! my gopherhole is at: gopher://example.com/
       > and i want my name to be "pinecone"!

                               next steps
       
       somewhere on your gophermap, you may (or may not) wish to
       include one (or all) of these links:
       
       gopher://tilde.pink/1~emily/forest/next.cgi?me
       gopher://tilde.pink/1~emily/forest/prev.cgi?me
       gopher://tilde.pink/1~emily/forest/rand.cgi
       
       where the "me" at the end is your username.
       
       if your gophermap supports links, you should be able to
       do something along the lines of:
       
       1Next TAB ~emily/forest/next.cgi?me TAB tilde.pink TAB 70
       
       ---------------------------------------------------------
                              final notes
       
       if you would like to be removed from the ring, feel
       free to let me know via email!
       
       i will also remove your hole if it is down for an extended
       period of time, or if you are loudly racist / homophobic
