I play at work definitely not at work and the proxy blocks the protocols used by imageshack/photobucket/etc. (must use the java app to upload via FTP - as far as I know that's the only protocol universally blocked). I do keep on meaning to dump the screenies on a flash drive to bring home but I can't even remember what half of them refer to by now anyway...

btw Sizeak this is what prompted the idea of the CSV/XML export :P

I figured as much :D If you have problems with work blocking things, why don't you set up a vpn or ssh tunnel or something to your home network? What kind of job do you do? It's ok if you don't want to give that information out on the internet though.

Hell if I care if people know I'm an IT techie :P Although I could probably set up a VPN or some such to my home PC (the ports are open... hell our network admin works from home and VPNs into our work domain to fix anything, I just don't have rights to get in remotely myself), that would require me to leave it on during the day and my salary can't take that sort of electricity bill, nor do I want to put any more wear than I need to on my main HDD (which is around 3 years old now... I've seen drives that've lasted 12 years but 3 years is generally the point where issues start to crop up.)

Possibly if I could get it to wake up on LAN... but I've never tried setting that up before, it's probably a pain in the ass to do so, and I have no idea if it would work through the USB port my modem is connected with as opposed to ethernet...

Bears thinking on though, maybe I'll try it :P

Some routers can be used as VPN servers which would solve the electricity & HDD issues since only the router would need to be on

Don't use a router, connect directly to my modem (one those those Kyocera pieces of s- iBurst modems), and I seriously doubt it has any features that could be called even vaguely advanced.

Meh, I'll either figure out the wakeup on LAN bit or stick a note on my screen reminding myself to dump the screenies on a flash :P

Next up will be snapshotting all the dwarves... I'll get that done then do some actual story >,<

BTW blade never actually put that statue in her office... I noticed a bit late (after the post) that it involved Blade being surrounded by cave spiders. Guess who hates Cave Spiders? :P

If he's not taken can I have "Astesh Ashm“neral" the male soldier?

And rename him Svarte.

Maybe train him to be an axedwarf?

edit: Oh, I didn't realize this was dead.
