I like to see my fps at 40, just slow enough to be easily managed. It's more usual at 25 though.

Mostly, the hillarious things the name generator throws up.

Spryclaw the omnious mechanism, a tetrahedrite millstone  ... I mean, what?

Onul Lashstir Greatfish Animal Luck, nice to meet you.

[Naryar]

Metalsmiths going fey or secretive.

One lone dwarf killing a whole ambush.

Getting a high-level metalsmith, or mechanic, in a migrant wave.

Catching a dragon/jabberer/GCS/GDS/roc/giant eagle/etc.

A well-designed magma or obsidian trap closing on unsuspecting invaders.

Elves bringing cool exotic beasts.

Piercing hell and beating the snot out of HFS.

Toady adding an awesome new feature.

Military dwarf earning an fearsome title due to killing.

Hilarious, unpredictable, anticlimatic or just plain crazy outcomes, bonus if the thing is both awesome and bad ass.

-DevLog updates
-Mood produces absolutely anything other than a craft.
-Kobolds, in any context
-Disaster dealt with
-Dwarves saved from the brink of death, the more scarred the better.
-A child born in the fortress reaches maturity (always named Fortressborn, to keep track of them).

Zombie unicorns.

Your military moves as a group and faces the enemy as a unit instead of a quarter of them rushing ahead, a quarter lagging behind, and half juggling their equipment or sleeping. I wouldn't know because it's never happened but I imagine it would be pretty cool.

My most recent little glee was at my champion taking on 5 goblins on his own and winning. Other things are an FB going down, a job order for steel armour being completed and a hospital working properly. Doctors, patients and resources all in union.

Urist McDoesntburrow cancels Haul The One Item You Didn't Forbid: Ran directly into an ambush

Urist McDoesntburrow has become enraged!

Urist McDoesntburrow punches the Goblin Master Lasher in the head, bruising the muscle, jamming the skull through the brain, and tearing the brain!

UristMcDoesntburrow has been struck down!

[Tharwen]

My framerate above 100.

Oh god yes.

If the game was just single, huge counter that filled the screen and never dropped below 100, I would be content.

[Sabreur]

Goblins standing on top of a raising drawbridge. I like to try to guess where they will land.

[muzzz]

Seeing a marksdwarf one-shot a giant cave swallow, then seeing the goblin rider slam into my wall.

[loose nut]

- new metal

- bituminous coal, or early magma

- putting together a mated pair of some awesome exotic creature

- statues of fun things like gods in funny poses or weird animals.

- *figurines* of mussels or oysters, the more valuable the better

I like when my dwarves catch strange diseases or begin to rot from the inside out or outside in while they are still alive. the simple fact that dwarves can get infections and lose limbs or suffer severe necrosis in DF is fascinating to me. it opens up a whole venue for me, making a few custom reactions/spells that allow necromancers to inflict these things on dwarves in the same way they raise the dead would be good for some fun.

I did a Lich secret sometime ago with plague-spells of different sorts.  One of them actually came to one of my forts and used them all.  It was beautiful.
