W00t! 300th Post! Anyway, I finally got around to reading all 12 pages of this thread and I must say I am really excited about Dwarf Fortress. I support being able to name monsters and stuff in a .txt file. Yep.

[Toady One]

Isn't the txt file technology that enables third parties to do bad things?  The Supreme Court is all over that.

Anyway, I'm stable in Texas now.  Programming commences tomorrow.  If I don't die.

Die of the heat or just a good old Texas lynch mob?

[Toady One]

Heat for now...  It was 100 and humid yesterday.  People have been friendly, and they'll probably remain that way as long as I remain quiet.

[Aquillion]

Yes, stay quiet.  Texas is probably not the place to announce that you are the author of Liberal Crime Squad.

I hear those Texans are pretty big fans, after all.  We wouldn't want you trampled to death by a mob eager for version 4.

It's humidity that's the real pain with any climate. Heat alone's never quite as nasty as hot, sticky humidity. I hate humid summers here, personally.

At least you have a good supply of water/some other suitable fluid in the fridge to keep it cool, along with plenty of ice, right?

Oh, and to keep this on topic. This game needs more giant dwarves.

[Toady One]

656.  Woot.  Things are still a bit slow, but I have some time again.

Dwarf!  Dwarf!  Dwarf!  Dwarf!  Dwarf!

*joins in on the chanting* Dwarf! Dwarf! Dwarf! Dwarf!

Why is it that a word sounds so strange when repeated?

[Captain Mayday]

You mean like the word 'punch'?

[Svirfneblim]

Sounds more like 'Fwort, Fwort' if i chant, yes, i was chanting before my computer:P

[Toady One]

Dwarf Fwortress?

[Aquillion]

Fwarf Dwartress!

[Ancient_Sleeping_Dude_Rei]

That's it, if it is possible to name one's city when the game comes out, I'll name it Fwarf Dwartress!

EdIt: When do you plan to send out any new demo movies of DF? All we have now is a number that is steadily(?) sinking to measure how done it is. Please send out some more movies!

But taking the time to make and upload movies would take away from time working on Dwarf Fortress.  In fact, the time he's taking to read this post is taking away from time working on Dwarf Fortress!  Ack, I'd better stop talking now.
