Also infamous for personality conflicts among the contributors (not so much nowadays) and frequent [[Series Hiatus]].
Yes, it has [http://dyos.wikkii.com/wiki/Main_Page a Wiki]. There have been 12 episodes so far, but unfortunately threads for episodes 1-9 have been [[Lost Episode|deleted and live on only in memory]].
The available episodes include:
* [http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=244426 DYOS 10] - a story of the [[Avatar]] Wars, where people's old forum avatars rebel against their former masters;
* [http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=330899 DYOS 10.5] - a [[Sequel]] to the above;
* [http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=330898 DYOS 11] - tells about the struggle against a mysterious Hacker who closes the Off-Topic subforum, thus denying the forum users their daily dose of flame wars.

* [[Genetic Engineering Is the New Nuke]]: Quoted by Wesker.
* [[Genre Shift]]: Mainly CivGeneral who went from a mercenary-like character into a leader of his own nation simply to counter the excessive powergaming found in the Dark Ages of DYOS. Recent episodes now show him reverting back to his mercenary roots.

** Stylesrj every other month with the Narrator plots
Line 172:
** A lot of people fit this trope as well.
* [[The Mafia]]: The minor villain Scalise belongs to the Mafia.
* [[Magic From Technology]]: Magic isn't allowed, so you see a lot of this.
* [[Manly Tears]]: CivGeneral shed them {{spoiler|at Spongebob's funeral}}
* [[Marshmallow Hell]]: Both Stylesrj and CivGeneral experienced this. Spongebob [[I Thought It Meant|thinks it's a kind of dessert]].
