Shouldn't we call these dwarf eggs?
Are humans called Easters?  No.
No but there are people called Easterners! So thats where easter eggs come from...
That would be eastern egg.
That was probably just lost in translation. Alot of stuff from the east is lost in translation.

There is a small "Easter Egg", if you can call it that when trying to make electrum from the manager screen.

I think you only have to type as much as "make elec"

Try it and see.  It's a good one if you've played D&D.

Oh, wait, actually it's "smelt electrum."

Firefox thinks that's not a word!  Grr . . . what does it think is a word?

There's also the "Helpless or Hopeless?" page you get from pressing "?" too many times.  I've managed to get there accidentally when my right hand is one key off and I'm trying to go through a whole bunch of z-levels.

Back in 2D DF you used to get messages by scrolling too far. Not sure if they still work.

Ustxu Iceraped the Frigid Crystal of Slaughter was a glacier titan. It was the only one of its kind. A gigantic feathered carp composed of crystal glass. It has five mouths full of treacherous teeth, enormous clear wings, and ferocious blue eyes. Beware its icy breath! Ustxu was associated with oceans, glaciers, boats, and murder.

I'm not really sure myself;  it's just that I showed it to my brother, who is the one that plays it, and he thought it was funny.  Not rolling on the floor funny, just "heh" funny.

I've never played D&D, and i really don't get it. You can make any alloy from bars. Sure, it looks a little odd "Make electrum bars (use bars)", but so what? I do recall reading that in the 2D version you couldn't make electrum until the Dungeon Master arrives. (I started after 3D came out.)

You type "smelt electrum" not "make electrum."  It has to be "smelt," or you're doing it wrong.
