Wait for the next release. I want usable mugs damn it!

We can use the current one. I like the big trees and slightly smarter dorfs.

I'll take .34.11 thanks. I want to know I'll get to kill things for sure.

slendermen=EEP
minecraft is good, huh?

[Xahnel]

I just spent half an hour performing experiments on him. Lava, drowning, suffication, explosions, the usual. Needless to say, didn't end well for him. I plan to expose him to a full battery of harmful scientific apparati tomorrow.

EDIT: Might post the results on youtube.

EDIT 2: In the style of a nature documentary. With a british accent.

I'm sure one of us has an even stupider idea involving making an adamantine boner on our front lawn

Aw, now I have to come up with a new plan.        edit: Missed Hanslanda's post saying the same thing. lol   oh well.

Btw, Splint, not sure if you missed it, but...

Might you sign me up for a second turn? I think I could manage a month a day, and I really want to get back into the action. Assuming Spearbreakers survives and Godzilla or Mothra don't come back looking for revenge, of course.

This is also assuming that turn registration hasn't closed.

@Jack Magnus, I agree with everything you said. Minus the part about The Thing... now I want to watch that movie.

@ Xahnel: Coincidentally, I sent this link to someone recently. I'm a bit of a fan of slenderman... largely because it's the only thing that's creeped me out since I was in third grade... and only for one night. After that, nothing. Watched Marble Hornets, nothing. Played the game at that link... nothing. I greatly enjoy being creeped out/scared, but it doesn't happen much. Still, +1 for mentioning slenderman, though I think I'd rather meet him than a single spawn, even if they have been demoted to extras. Largely because I don't have adamantine armor.

edit II: Aseaheru, minecraft's enderman is from slenderman, yes, but I frankly never found it scary. More... cute-ish. Minecraft is fun, and I found DF thanks to it, but I haven't really gone back to it since I found DF (except to walk through my forts with DFHack's DF2Minecraft (which is nonexistant now)).

[Xahnel]

Splint, what's Rose assigned as? If a soldier, who is in her squad?

EDIT: Well, then you might be interested to hear about the df mod for minecraft.

[Splint]

@ Xahnel - I haven't actually found a good dorf yet. Since most of the fortress guard double as hammerlords, she may well end up in the guard.

@ Talvieno - I've had alot on my plate, sorry. Sure I'll sign you on for another turn (if we make it that far, I think we'll have outlived many of the non battlefailed series forts.)

[Xahnel]

Hammer guard is fine, splint. She would prefer to be in the confines of the fort to fight.

[Splint]

betwwen schoolwork and testing how well player controlled humies can survive in a cold biome, updates may be sparse over the next couple days. Just a heads up.

[Xahnel]

That's fine, you've given us three in a few days.

[Aseaheru]

ugh. now i have to look for a scanner.

[Xahnel]

I'm bored. So, a preview!

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

It's raining blood. Holy fucking Armok, it really is raining "grade A" hundred-proof smells-like-bacon BLOOD. If i was a vampire, this place would be fucking paradise. As it is, that scent is making me hungry. Wonder if we have any bacon? Or maybe fried lizard nuggets.

[Paintbrushturkey]

100 proof is 50%.......... 

[Splint]

And this is a world where if something were 99% alcohol, a dwarf will slug it down and ask for another.

This is 99% alcoholic poison! It is poisonous, deadly, should never be drunk and 99% alcoholic!

Dwarven civilization as we know it has ended...

[Xahnel]

Two hundred proof just doesn't have the same ring.

TROPE: artistic license: alcohol

;P

Honestly, though, i had no idea. I don't drink at all.

@PBT: That isn't that bad. 80 proof is about normal for hard liquor, and Everclear is 195 proof. Everclear has a warning on the bottle telling you not to drink anything larger than a shot, that you're supposed to sip it slowly over the course of an hour or so (the shot) and that if you drink more than a shot, you are seriously risking death or severe alcohol poisoning.

Don't start, drinking is highly expensive and extremely detrimental to your health. Naturally, it is also incredibly fun.
