I've never made my dwarves drink booze. Dwarven rehab bitches.

[TheCoolSideofthePIllow]

I have never been to the circus with an adventurer. This should be something I'm able to do now.

I've breached the HFS before with a fort and everything, but I had never been able to *find* it in adventure mode, let alone get down into the circus.

I'll have to check out the underground road and see if maybe any auto-genned forts breached into the bad place.

[kingubu]

I have never made Mog juice.
I have never had an army of war Jabberers.
I have never played adventure mode.

But I have a good reason for the last one.  Because every time I think about adventure mode, the back of my brain goes, "but you never ascended in nethack, you must do that before you fool around in adventure mode"

Then me and my brain argue about how it's been years since nethack and I don't remember any of the game except maybe "Elbereth" then I go get a beer and forgot what the question was.

So it's not my fault.

[WaffleEggnog]

I have never...
Fallen to a tantrum spiral
Posted about a mega build (I made one once... RIP my weekend)
Not killed elves
Actually made a successful/complex minecart system.
Made a successful pump-stack. I've done it, but it only ever half-worked :[
Killed a GCS without any dwarven shenanigans (traps, cave-ins, etc.)
Breached an aquifer successfully without either looking on the wiki or savescumming at least once.
Made a water-works for misting and stuff
Made an entire squad of Badasses (usually only 1-5 guys max with all legendary and ady gear)

[Xazo-Tak]

I've never offended elves

Do it.

Oh, and I've also never had a vampire.

Chances are you have, actually.
They aren't obvious.

[Sephimaru]

Wow, I'm actually a little shocked how much some people haven't done yet.

Here's my list:

I never
-made a rail system
-encountered a colossus in fort mode
-explored an old fort in adventure mode
-successfully breached the HFS
-used any tilesets exept the square default
-breached a multilevel aquifer successfully
-I never explored the caverns in adventure mode

[Uristsonsonson]

I still haven't gotten around to playing more than five minutes or so of fortress mode... :S

[Caz]

I've never made my dwarves drink booze. Dwarven rehab bitches.

How do you get anything done??

[Chimpanzee]

I have never:

Mined a working magma piston.
Got attacked by elves in fortress mode.
Had a non-vampire monarch arrived.
Killed a clown in fortress mode, let alone survived the circus.
Embarked as goblins (through raw change)
Played in any mod except for masterwork DF.
Haven't used any tileset except for Phoebus, which comes with Masterwork DF anyway.
Sustained a fortress for more than 11 years.
Had an adventure mode game not crash at some point of time as of 0.40.01.
Had a reliable meat/egg/milk/cheese industry.
The list goes on.

Now the showoff: things I HAVE done, just because:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Reach a population of 200+ dwarves
Have an adventurer become a thrall
Kill a clown in adventure mode
Breach a 2-level aquifer (took 1 month in-game)
Constructed a pump stack reducing the travel time for the metalworkers.
Killed a miner breaching a volcano for magma workshops.
Ruled 1 year in a succession fort. Two, actually.
Played as an ogre, floating gut, or clown in adventure mode. (old bug)
Modified the raws to make kobolds made of adamantine and played as one in adventure mode.
Managed to get a fort from zero embark points spent to riches.
Played as humans and elves in fortress mode.
The list goes on.

[quekwoambojish]

1. Used blind siege engineers.
2. Advanced dwarven child care.
3. Discovered the secrets of life.
4. Transsexual squad.
5. Bees.
6. Mine carts.
7. HFS.
8. Become a Husk.
9. Casting with obsidian.
-------

Generally this is a summation of every end to my games:

1.Adventure mode; do quests until companion dies on quest, then due to lack of companions soon die from bogeymen.

2. Dwarf mode; after about 5-7 years, large swarms of giant wasps fly into my hallway.

[thatnewguy]

i knew DF for 3 years now.


never tried fortress mode.

[Bodkin]

A dwarven bucket list? Why did I never think of this? There are lots of common things I've still not done.

2. Publish a community fortress
3. Build a pump stack, either water or magma
4. Engineer a cave-in trap that works
5. Build a proper industry for working glass and clay
6. Experience the HFS
7. Pierce an aquifer
8. Reach a high level of confidence for coping with forgotten beasts (see item 4)
9. Complete my deep underground Trade Depot Labyrinth
