Yeah, that sounds like a huge success to me. Glad to hear that your presentation turned out well, grade-wise and interest-wise. Pretty cool if some of them end up playing.

He who plays with dwarves must take care that he does not become a dwarf.  And when you stare into DwarfFort, Dwarffort stares back into you.

But I was the only one in my class who managed to awaken some interest in what I was talking about.
What I mean with that is that they all asked questions, even the girls :)

My wife gets bored when I talk about DF T.T If you have found a girl interested in such a game, go for it. Such females are rare and most likely interesting. That or they be playin' ya, yo.

Now I only wish I could have seen it.
well, thanks. It was in norwegian...I don't quite see how you would've gotten much out of it, but I do get what you mean, thanks :)

Thanks to you too. It turned out really well, thanks to this community.
At least one of them ended up playing it for a bit, and I'm probably going to give him some resources to work with too. A bunch of others seemed interested like all hell, though not all of them have the time to play, considering the exams are coming up.Would be badass if they remembered afterwards :)
The whole class asked for more actually, including the teacher, who is well over 50 years of age. Good stuff :)

Tja, all of the girls seemed interested, going on to ask me some questions after class. I feel like a hero somehow >.>
However, that is unlucky... I wish you the best. My girlfriend wants me to teach her the game, and that was after some talk by me.  I encourage you to try to persuade her, though don't be creepy about it :P

Well, you made a school presentation about Dwarf Fortress for school and interested the entire class in the game. If that's not heroic in a fanbase sort of way, I don't know what is!
