I just can't believe it... After all these years.. It's finally out.

And I'm at work and thus can't download it.. And I'm pretty busy for the whole day, so I won't be downloading it today.

And I'm pretty busy for tomorrow, too, so... Damn... I'll be at home sometime around 10 pm tomorrow. I have a feeling I won't be sleeping too well that night.

I can picture in my mind a world without war, a world without hate. And I can picture us attacking that world, because they'd never expect it.

You can think about Gezol's 8 day fast and draw strength from it.  Of course, that was self-imposed...

Wait, it actually runs under wine?  I thought even my most simple games break there...  maybe that guy was just complaining...

Wine has come a long way.

I play WoW under cedega (a wine fork) without any problems.

A direct port would be preferable, of course.  Check out SDL, many games have been ported to linux using that (easier if it's OpenGL).  Then again, I'd rather you stick more Bloat in and maybe fix some bugs, first.

First thought: Holy crap! The intro!
Second thought: Zzzzzz... World generation...

Oh yeah, and the game icon rocks too.

Fortunately you only have to do it once, assuming it works.

Actually, once the world gen is all done and the units are offloaded, it's good to back up the data/save folder.  Then you won't have to do it again until you actually want to, even if your world is corrupted.  Backups are good.

Losing is fun! Everything is going fine and dandy and then wham, a named grizzly bear kills a dwarf, a mule, and breaks another dwarf's arm and leg. We'll see how long can we survive.

So I took 15 units of dwarven wine with me to a new fortress ... and they brought it in 15 barrels. That can be considered cheating since one barrel costs more points than one unit of wine.

Ah, that's right.  Demon was bugging me about that earlier.  Maybe that is even a numbered req (checks)...  Req305 "Cheap Barrels"...  it's impossible to keep all these straight, but at least they are written down somewhere.

The game, wow... It didn't fail to meet the oh so inflated expectations!

It's ruining my virtual social life right now. I'd post in the specific forum, but i have no specific topic to discuss, i'm still getting the hang of everything.

It was a long wait, all right.
