Canine virgin (Sort of) birth 33g
« on: December 24, 2007, 10:58:00 am »

So this bitch is running around my fort with two puppies already as part of her litter. The father died after a wolf got too close and fights broke out (The mother has permanent spine injuries from killing it). This happened about half a year ago. Now, however, she just gave birth to another puppy, while the only other male dog is one of her pups.

Did any of the caravans have dogs in cages? Remember, they reproduce via spores, so unless I'm mistaken, a caged dog could very well get yours pregnant.

Not spores.  Telekinesis.

If I had that ability, every woman I know would be pregnant.

As you journey to the center of the world, feel free to read the death announcements of those dwarves that suffer your neglect.

One billion b-balls dribbling simultaneously throughout the galaxy. One trillion b-balls being slam dunked through a hoop throughout the cosmos. I can feel every single b-ball that has ever existed at my fingertips, I can feel their collective knowledge channeling through my veins. Every jumpshot, every rebound and three-pointer, every layup, dunk and free throw.

Maybe it just checks for male dogs, and doesn't care if they're puppies? The game definitely doesn't care if it's a war/hunting/stray dog, so it's not much of a stretch.

My stray dogs often chase fire imps back into the magma pipe and then continue fighting while burning and drowning in the lava. Truly their loyalty knows no bounds, but perhaps it should.

Well, I'll check at some point.  I'm not sure I'll like what I find down there, but I'll go look when I build up the nerve.  Oftentimes, all the correct checks are in place.  Sometimes, they aren't.
