Thanks Toady! And Scamps sounds like he has an awesome diet.

Ohoho, those creature variations...

Also, the attack raws are brilliantly simple. I love it.

The info on escalation was pretty exciting, thanks.

Ohoho, those creature variations...

I didn't really understand that part... does this allow mods to alter part of a creature without overwriting the whole raw entry?  Something else?

You could already do that. This is a meta-variation--variations on variations!

Yo dawg, I heard you like variations, so I put variations for your variations so you can vary while you vary.

Well, when you like variations and attention to detail within variations as much as we do, it's mandatory.

Now I've just gotta figure out how to make Raw Explorer handle them...

Do you ever think on lame titles for movies like: Honey, I Procedurally Created the Kids! as easter eggs hidden somewhere in the game, or just for fun?

What kind of bed do you have? You need the best rest possible.

Are you eating healthier? I remember the New York Times interview where you described typical day of developing and I remember it included a lot of sweets. I remember at least a comment on that page of some one worried about your health in the long run, see, we need you to stay alive for as many centuries as possible, as some people (me included) consider you a treasure for mankind.

I'm curious as to how a tank would evolve. Would it climb out of the primordial ooze wiggling it's track-nubs, feeding on smaller jeeps before crawling onto the shore having evolved proper treds?

Well, in real life kids are mostly generated procedurally, starting from a random seed..

ah ah ah, very good !
But, I hope for you (or your husband, or your wife) that it won't be "totally" random. :)

In cryptography, it is noted that, in a finite state system, a seed will come from a finite number, be it very large, of possible seed values.  The question is whether it is random enough.

I wish I had a relatable joke for this.  But, since I don't: !!MAGMA!!
