"So then, do you know any women with balls?"

Leg was supposed to be... Brain... not Balls

Or wait... I think I am wrong

"dwarf women are ugly?"

Why do you think Goblins are so obsessed with killing dwarves? Because they hurt their feelings?

I wish the dwarves did have balls that could be lopped off and prevent them from breeding. Now the chance of that happening is worth the hundreds of dead.

I am going to ask this before I put it in the suggestion box

Has anyone suggested a huge list of natural wonders before? If so how extensive?

Must... stop... music... contest...

On another topic: I wonder what Toady's secret project is, and if he made enough progress so as to tell us/give us hints.

I'm thinking... an AI side project, or possibly messing around with interface tools for the presentation arc.  OR maybe even learning a little multi-threading.

What say you all?

I say, judging by his own words, his secret project has nothing to do with Dwarf Fortress.

Wait, so after working on it for 6 years, Toady would just scrap DF and start work on another game that would maybe take another 6 years or so?

Also: hooray! DF is underway again!

Seemed to fit the limerick humor.
So then, do you know any women with balls? :-\
"her leg" -> "his balls"

It is its own thing.  It is neither a replacement for DF nor an augmentation of some aspect of DF.  It is one of the projects I've written several partial versions of since middle school, as DF is a continuation of the Dragslay arc of games I started around the same time.

Oh, well in that case: are you planning it as a "surprise" for us, or do you not intend to release it?

I'd like to put it up when it's ready, but it's unclear if I'll finish it or certainly what the timetable is, so I didn't want to release any details or build any expectations.  It's mostly an enjoyable break of routine at this point.
