Sagan 4 is an old project, and one may find that the history of the project itself and its community is just as interesting as the evolutionary history that it constructed. This page serves to document project and community history, the good and the bad, for newcomers interested in Sagan 4's past.

Closed Period
Sept 02 2006 - Nov 28 2006

For the first four Weeks, in both the game and literal senses, Sagan 4 was a closed, invite-only project. Each generation lasted only a single day, and each Week was a literal real-life week. Founders Hydromancerx, Huggkruka, Oviraptor, Krakow Sam, Yokto, Rhodix, and Flisch were the only contributors. Many of Sagan 4's major groups of organisms were established during this time as well.


 * Sept 02 2006: Week 1 began
 * Sept 09 2006: Week 2 began
 * Sept 16 2006: Week 3 began
 * Sept 25 2006: Week 4 began
 * Sept 30 2006: Last new submission, Sagan 4 was considered to have concluded

Sagan 4 was suspended after Week 4, and its members moved on to work on another project, Fermi 5. However, Fermi 5 died by October 5th, and on November 28th, Sagan 4 was brought back.
