Help the french community
« on: June 01, 2012, 04:49:05 am »

Hello everybody,


I'm here to send you a request, the website "www.jeuxvideo.com" (first game website in france) allows their members to vote for a request, every month the first request is realized by the website, so i'm here to ask to the official community to vote for the test of this awesome game


here is the request for the test : http://www.jeuxvideo.com/boite-a-idees/00053529-test-de-dwarf-fortress-pc-boite-a-idees.php


translation :

"
Description :
Dwarf Fortress is a game with huge possibilities offering who ask to manage a colonie with 7 dwarfs (which will expand), a gamemode  who ask to manage a fortress with a lot of possibilites en maybe becoming a beautifull and honorable dwarf fortress.
The other gamemode is a "dungeon crawler" who ask, in the same  world randomly generate , to travel around the world in the role of an human, dwarf or elve adventurer; fall into an ambush, hunt a vampire or a werewolf and engage soldiers to form a great company for hunt some creatures more dangerous.
In these two gamemode you will loose frequently but like the creators say (Toady one) : "Loosing is fun".
"


Sorry for my bad english, and thanks for your help ^^

Who, uh, who wrote the copy for this?

Actually, the translation is pretty bad. The original read "A wonderful and renown dwarf fortress".

Yeah. I think we should just... surrender while we have the chance.

"Wonderful and renown" makes more sense.  Wonderful typically means something like great, but it can also mean something more like astonishing, which fits with the blood-soaked, vomit-encrusted hellholes fortresses tend to become.

The number one got something like 21000 votes, and is asking for an article over some second-rate browser game that already got a page.

Since you can buy votes for something like 6 eurocents a piece, those 21000 votes probably come from a 1000 euros check from the company and/or massive lobbying of their players.

Yeah, we should give up.

I... can't tell if you're going along with the joke or not. I can't even tell if it's sarcasm. This is hard. Internet is hard. I voted, btw.
