We only really need one for new necromancers to spawn, so that sounds fine.

Also, I will be most amused if someone decides to get every dwarf to become necromancers. Assigning a necromancer as butcher would be hilarious.

I figured this was a given.

The "assigning necromancers as butchers is hilarious" part or the "someone will make every character they can get their hands on a necromancer" part?

I'd say the latter. The former isn't something you would think about without someone else mentioning it, though it is funny, but the latter is something that would occur to your normal thought process. (Unlike Necromancer Butchers)

I would very much like to know what your "normal" thought process include.

Yay, my first sig!
I think. I may have gotten sigged earlier, although that was probably a joke.

I've had at least two sigs, maybe more. I dunno.
Still, every time someone sigs you, it's a little victory of yours. It's like a community showcase.
We should hold a contest that determines who had the best sigged quote. :D

Don't need a contest, the answer is Girlinhat. 'Cause every quote eventually leads back to her.

I got sig'd once and it was awful.

But for serious, any word from Toady about possible release dates yet? (spoilers: probably not)

The closest thing I could find was probably this:
Quote from: Toady One
I've still been sorting through the details of how the abstraction level switches are going to work for AI site claims (which I was starting before the holidays intervened), but I think I have a plan through it all now. We finished about half of the notes in December, so theoretically we can complete them this time around, though nuggets like this current barrier are the sort of things that mess up my estimates consistently. Tonight I'll be watching people yell at each other and then rudely interrupt them by moving the camera, and then go back again, and so on, until they end their situation properly regardless of how I mess with the zooming or camera location.

Though this wouldn't say a lot given that there would still be the testing period to wait through, but that one takes two weeks on average (according to people like Putnam) to finish.
Then again, we would still have to wait a long time for the bugfixes.

But I don't give a damn about bugs as long as the game is remotely playable.

Answer: No, we still have no idea when we'll see an update.

Nor has there been any word over the last five days of progress, which has me somewhat disappointed. I must know to survive!

Additionally, I have yet to find a signature containing a quote from Girlinhat by clicking links to posts in users' signatures on pages linked to from other users' signitures. I have, however ran into a quote dead-end, wherein the only user on the page linked to who had a linked quote was the user whose linked quote I clicked on. Amusingly, this page was one on which Girlinhat had posted, within view of the linked quote. Her post was not especially amusing.

Link in question: http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=123138.msg4349177#msg4349177

Another dead end page actually ended without either another signature to click on or a quote from Girlinhat. I am forced to conclude that, indeed, not all quotes lead to Girlinhat. Unfortunately I just closed that tab of my browser, and this school's network settings don't save any history, even temporarily, so now I have no idea what page I was looking at.
