I'm Back! HOW'S TOADY!? IS HE OK????
« on: September 12, 2012, 11:44:25 am »

Hello,

I have been busy with RL and also other games, I admit. I am here to check in on beloved Toady One!

Is he doing alright? No recent illnesses? Is he seeing a doctor at least once a year for checkups? Does he have health insurance?

IS HE OKAY?!?!

Thank you for helping me check up on my favorite indie developer of all time.

Oh, thank you. Good to hear! I check his dev blogs all the time. Fun readings. But the forum, I don't know, and Toady sometimes keeps tragedies to himself. Much like a dwarf in a strange mood. Just need to make sure there's a barrel of DIET coca-cola and some FIBER biscuits handy.

Toady has been dead since he got sucked into his computer in a freak dwarven physics accident. Threetoe has been filling in for him until his soul completes DF and he manages to re-corporealize into a living cloud of ASCII.

So Toady is the ASCII version of Dr Manhatten?

Quote from: Chesterton
For, in order that men should resist injustice, something more is necessary than that they should think injustice unpleasant. They must think injustice absurd; above all, they must think it startling. They must retain the violence of a virgin astonishment. When the pessimist looks at any infamy, it is to him, after all, only a repetition of the infamy of existence. But the optimist sees injustice as something discordant and unexpected, and it stings him into action.

Also, don't forget we only have a limited amount of time before DF is completed and single-handedly starts the technological singularity. Toady still needs to merge his mind with DF so that it doesn't get out of control when it happens.

At what point in this process does he stop dwarves from walling themselves into places and removing tiles they're standing on? And start noticing when they're on fire?

I think we have a fair while to go before the singularity.

Actually, that's supposed to be next version, from what I've heard. By 0.8 the dwarfs will be able to reach through the screen and whip us into compliance.

Although once that happens, you *really* don't want to get the banhammer.  :o

Upside: There will be a lot more parties.
Downside: Conversation at the parties will revolve around a variety of questionable biscuits and socks.
