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.

Not really all that strange. Sometimes researching such things for a character can broaden one's horizons.

For example, I know far more about swords, axes and such than a 19 year old should, as I have many a character (Or just redshirt/mook type) who use such arms and I needed to know about them so when writing or drawing I could adequately represent actions while using such weapons. Kinda screwed the pooch on polearms for this thread though....

I know far more than a normal 18 year old should know about Physics, Weapons (from a lot of different time periods.) Armor, Biology, History and many many other subjects than I should but hey I enjoy it.

[Splint]

Ohohoho yes, most definitely history. And a vast array of utterly, totally, completely useless things as well (At least most of your knowlege base seems semi-useful. )

[Lolfail0009]

Lol, history.

[zacen299]

I mainly know History to see how stupid people were and the Biology and Physics are just from sheer curiosity and the power of the internet. There are far more things I could list but I'm spectacularly lazy.

[Lolfail0009]

History is most certainly interesting, but in this progressive world of ours I don't find it particularly useful. Please, if you can, enlighten me.

[Splint]

Depends on what you want to know. if i don't know something about something though i can find out, just as anyone can.

Personally I like history in general, though I tend towards military history.

[Aseaheru]

wow. i get tired of DF for 3 days AND NOITHUING HAPPENS?!?!?!? WHAT HAS HAPPENED TO YOU BEINGS?

[Mr Frog]

@Asea:

There has been a definite lull in activity lately, both with the fort and the sidestories. I know Tal's been having connection issues; not sure what Lolfail's excuse is, or why the number of people contributing sidestories suddenly pancaked.


History is interesting to me. Not much of the data is really relevant anymore, but it's still cool. Some of the greatest stories ever recorded are those that occurred in actual reality.

[Splint]

I just kinda hit a wall with my section of the Timewar. I found a way to allow me to finish off my story bits without stepping on any toes AND as a mean to throw Ballpoint off of Joseph though.

[Reudh]

Talvi as you said has had connectivity issues. Also, my four characters are still in his control; though I could still do something with them. An origin story? Heh. I kinda hit a wall as well.

Hans has hit a wall with Urist, Splint hit a wall with the Timewar. That pretty much leaves you and Terrahex.

[EDIT: Fixed up poor Splint/Split's name.]

Also why the heck hasn't Corai/Cograi been in this thread for ages?

[Splint]

Who is this Split you speak of. I am Splint, not Split.

[Lolfail0009]

Maybe you just have a *Split* personality!

[Splint]

Don't joke about that, when sufficiently irritated something to that effect occurred that cost me a job.

[Lolfail0009]

My sincerest apologies, then.
