Tenth Anniversary of Dwarf Fortress on August 8.
« on: July 11, 2016, 03:07:08 pm »
Just a slight reminder that Dwarf Fortress will have been first released a full decade ago upon August 8.  I'll have the thread title count down to that day, but out of curiosity, is anyone planning on doing something on that day?

It has been determined that Trump is an average unladen swallow travelling northbound at his maximum sustainable speed of -3 Obama-cubits per second in the middle of a class 3 hurricane.

I plan on sacrificing plants and hunting carnivorous grass. Might convert to darkness and cover myself in darkness for a dose of double darkness! We love bay12games!!! :D 8)

Three dwarves for to kill the Elven-kings under the sky
Seven for the Dwarf-lords to rule in their halls of stone,
Nine to make awesome things for Mortal Men doomed to die,
One for the Dark Lord on his dark throne
In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.
One dwarf to rule them all, one dwarf to find them
One dwarf to bring them all and in the darkness bind them

We need a volcano.

Oh, relating to that:

yet inside golden treasure is hid.

PTW

I'm hoping Therapist is up and running on the new 64-bit stuff by then.  I'm be making my first new fort in quite a while at that point.  Really excited for the performance upgrades.  I haven't seriously played the game since before the world was switched on, but I've been watching all the updates.  Ready for a whole new experience.

Maybe people should love for the sake of loving, and not with all of these optimization conditions.

Nope, it's on August 8.  Thread title is a countdown to that day I'm lazy in updating.
