I'm not sure if this is a thread for FG&RP or General discussion, but i'll just post it here because this is the best board of the entire forum :p

So, as the title says, what was your first post? Mine was:

The Hills of Squirting

Which might seem very strange, but it was in the "Funniest Names" thread.

[LuckyKobold]

Hey guys new to the forum, I've been lurking for the past 6 months and I just wanted to say This Thread is truly awesome.Also Read through the thread and I honestly lost track of what was what past page 60 something can somebody give me a basic rundown on what's happened so far.

Twas in the Ye Gods OOC Thread.

[Salsacookies]

Hello. I'm new to roll to dodge, and this looks like fun. Is there anything for me to know about, specifically how do i introduce my character? i know how to make it, just not sure how to introduce. last, im typing on a ps3, so i can bold, so il [bracket] what i want to do, if that's ok. thank you and that about it i think.

Einsteinian Roulette. My "Hello post".

[Dermonster]

yes this is all well and good but there is a slight problem here.

merely the fact that most of this was copied almost word for word from https://bbs.stardestroyer.net/viewtopic.php?f=24&t=132707&start=25

unless you are the same guy.

additionally, i just registered now.

Five years. Man.

Past me was annoying.

okay 1st of all great mod first one ive added to my repertoire since i dont like game changing or anything being easier, the whole point of df is that you survive despite huge seiges and creepy stuff trying to maul you, and even as you find better things to help you, the enemies get stronger, and you're never safe. This is a principle that should be added to minecraft, imo, because it doesn't have enough threats. 2ndly, i think ive found 2 easter eggs in my game, so heres the screenshots.

1) Special Operations Pigeon

a spec ops pigeon? these guys are always around my fort, special pigeon easter egg?

2)Wierd Savant Guy
okay so I got this migrant wave on my 2nd year, and i was sorting them for what im going to stick them doing, and i go to the last one, pull up his skills and hes got something wierd about him.

Whats a savant skill? I figure i should go check the info screen since this guy is probably some wierd savant or a hidden caste or something, and i get this.

Whats enchanting? I dont see an enchanting related workshop. Is this a super secret eaqster egg? Maybe a new feature? In any case, anyone know what this guy is used as? I might as well use him for his savant skill, but i have no idea where to put him.

Well that's just painful for me to look at. Fix your typing, past me.

I had a dwarf die of starvation once, while stuck in a flooding chamber.  This one fills vertically, with five squares on the right side of the room.  The left side holds the drains.  For some reason, this idiot was on break while the room was being flooded.  I was too busy watching a tantrumming clothier kill people..  The clothier broke the lever that stops the flow of water.  The only thing left to do was to open the floodgates to the floor bars that act as the drains..  He couldn't make it against the flow of water, and starved to death.<P>Well, no, never happened.  But it would be about what it would take to top that idiot.

Please note, that was about a year and two months after I first joined.

And of course the Dwarves.
Both have the same nobles as dwarves and are played the same way.

Other:
Tonberry- Green,reptilian creatures who are skilled with knives, ambushes and sneaking. They are also incredibly obssessed with revenge. Will trade the Chef's Knife, an incredibly useful knife that can one-shot quite easily.
Cait Sith- Small humanoid cats. Nothing much special about these lot.
Cactuar - Humanoid cacti. Have the ability to blast needles at anything that moves. Simplistic, with not much else special about them.
Ronso - Feline humanoids, only taller, stronger, and much better at fighting. Imagine less tree-loving elves.

Workshops:
Summoning Circle: A workshop which has to ability to 'summon' powerful megabeasts....for the right price.
Runic Forge : A special forge wherein you can attempt to forge some of the series' famous weapons, like the Excalibur.

Catalyst- A small, unique creature with the ability to turn into a summon.

Sin- A giant, whale-like monstrosity. Mainly uses Gravity attacks, which will seriously slow down your troops.His main attack, Giga-Graviton will pretty much one-shot your army should they come in contact with it.
Shinryu- Dragon thingy. Stronger than Bahamut, so ignore the description. Has similar attacks to Tiamat, but luckily, isn't immune to them.
Tiamat- A six-headed dragon. It's immune to fire, ice and thunder, making it quite annoying. Has fire, ice and thunder attacks.

Manufactured Nethicite - A weaker form of natural Nethicite.
Auracite- Somewhere between the two for strength.

Summoning System :

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

-That's right, there's a summoning system in this! You can now summon Alexander or Bahamut to fight for your fortress.
-To actually get into using this, you need several catalysts. Catalysts are pets you can buy at embark. They're unique! Why? Because they are the
only creatures in the whole of existence who can channel the power of gods!
-Firstly, you need a Bestiary. Build one from a table, a chair and a usable stone.
-Then, you need to make paper, ink and vellum.
-After doing that, you need to make an empty manuscript from ten paper, two vellum, and one tanned skin for binding.
-Finally, you need to make a manuscript on the desired summon.
-Oh, but you're not done yet! You still require a summoning tome and a summon essence.
-Make the Summoning Tome the same way as you make a Summon Manuscript.
-Make summon essences by attempting to create them from the information you have on the summon.
- Finally,you need to build a Summoning Circle from 5 usable stones. After that, simply pasture some catalysts into the circle. (Preferably, your circle is in a locked room with constructed walls around it to maximize exposure.)
-Select your wanted reaction and keep using it until you get your summon!
-And Voila! You've got a summon. As of the moment, the transformation is irreversible and infinite : I will change this if I hear enough people clamouring for it.

Magic!:
-That's right, there's magic in this mod now.
- Minimize the amount of secrets generated to get the best out of your world.
-Magic includes summon magic (Bahamut and Alexander only), Fire magic, Thunder magic, Ice magic, Wind magic and Gravity magic.
-To find these magicks, find a tower with a slab pertaining to it.
-You can also make potions from several specific encountered monsters.

Currently working on:
-Giving Qu unique interactions when they eat megabeast meat.
-Adding more summon magic.
-Giving adventurers easier ways of getting magic.

DISCLAIMER 2: This mod is NOT A TOTAL CONVERSION. This is intended to be played with normal DF.

Does it count if your first post was a mod submission? Also, damn younger me was inexperienced at modding.

What Armok said.

Screech loudly, tackle the antimage, and do what you did to that poor puddle of maimed goblin to him, start with the limbs to keep him screaming longer for more demoralization. After you finish with him, proceed to poison a paladin, tear off the other paladin's arms, and beat a warrior with them if Zarg hasn't killed the rest.

Pretty violent first post.

> Examine fruit, then enter tower.

Well, that certainly could have gone better. Then again, it could also have been much worse.

also > Attempt to initiate diplomacy with the one hiding behind that tree.

This was long before I learned that diplomacy is for chumps.

Climatic music to listen to, while reading this post

By the Armok's lust for blood, I haven't posted anything yet, and everyone talks about me. Magic.

I am Peter and I am from Poland, so that's another time zone related voodoo magic for you to break your heads on. I'm interested in IT stuff and Pen&Paper RPGs. I enjoy playing indie games and I'm in love with tea.
Anyway, I've been lurking for quite a long time (mostly Forum Games and Roleplaying subforum) and I was like "dang son, I bored", so I finally made an account. Now the question is: What do I do next?

Oh and about my nickname. The English version of it would be something like PeterapperPL. I'm sticking with the Polish version though, only because I'm used to it.

And thank you for the PM, very heart-warming c:

This is what happens when someone introduces you to everyone before you even make an account. Which means nothing much happens other than everyone going "WOW, HELLO NEW GUY".

The best I could do with almost no gems, very little metal. This mountain is worthless!

This about sums up everything for me....many years later, and that mountain has yet to produce.

[My Name is Immaterial]

Correct me if I'm wrong, but couldn't you use TRAILING_DUST_FLOW as a sort of "Fus-Ro-Da" type attack?

Code: [Select]

[CAN_DO_INTERACTION:TRAILING_DUST_FLOW]
  [CDI:ADV_NAME:FUS-RO-DA]
  [CDI:USAGE_HINT:ATTACK]
  [CDI:BP_REQUIRED:BY_CATEGORY:MOUTH]
  [CDI:TARGET:C:LINE_OF_SIGHT]
  [CDI:TARGET_RANGE:C:15]
  [CDI:MAX_TARGET_NUMBER:C:1]
  [CDI:WAIT_PERIOD:50]Also, would I need to define a material for this to work properly?

I still don't understand modding.

[Ama]

Become life.

I failed and became death.

Or a no quality wooden crossbow so he can still kill enemy (S/he bash dwarfs with it)

Yeah, uh....I kinda purged a lot of my early posts out of embarrassment. I managed to get cleverbot to admit it was a robot in two words.
