It is a useful distinction. Let us make use of it. (Also school's "words have gender(s), people have sex(es)") Also, it would be perfectly fine (to me, anyway) to have discussions about sex did it not reduce 75% of the forum population to giggling imbecility.

Good eye, footkerchief.

[Footkerchief]

The distinction is useful, yes.  I just don't like to see people get pounced on for not knowing about it, especially when the intent was both clear from context and aligned with about 600 years of actual usage.

This thread has gone to bad places. O_o
When Toady comes back and sees this... I don't know who I am feeling the most sorry for.

Hey, I tried to wrench it out of there, mostly successfully > > . Mechanoids question is completely valid despite edging towards what I was trying to whack the thread out of.

Now we seem to be going into the study of forensics and bieng able to tell the sex of a skeletonized corpse.

Edit: I think at least two sections got greened out.

Looks like Toady is saving the booze instead of water for last as that is likely a tough one.

Each individual item also tracks how many creatures it has killed and where (including non-weapon objects like tantrum-thrown furniture from a stockpile)

Its going to take a lot of work, but damned if I don't have a very special gabbro cabinet in my fortress.

Surely someone will get a semi-artifact pig tail sock.
It's a bit sad that pre-play legends won't get weapon mentions yet, but this is still a cool update.

[Mephansteras]

This is great. I've been personally looking forward to this item, since I've always tried to give my soldiers armor or weapons that matched their preferences (even though it had no in game effect). The fact this it'll actually matter now is great!

when'd that devlog pop up. Yum. NAMED LEAD BINS OF LEAD BRICKS ARE GO

If you wrestle something to death (or kick), do your graspers record the kill? and upon death or severing..

[pbheadtemp]

hey toady,

Remeber that giant number that you had a long while ago (like... before you posted this thread)

If you bothered to keep track... what number are you down to aproximately? or could i just go add up all the non-green items and get that number?

This is an exceptional engraving of Bloodfist, the Iron Doom of Skulls and a dwarf. The dwarf is attached to Bloodfist. Bloodfist is striking a menacing pose.

That's a misunderstanding from the Bible.

Yes we established that a while ago. Though only likely originating from the Bibal, since I didn't get it from that source.

Will you guys stop it... Honestly!

I go through these posts and respond to anything addressed to me or anything that piques my interest.

I'm not sure what you're asking here.

It would be even more disappointing in a way if named weapons did show up in worldgen, since you still wouldn't be able to find them, unless Toady did even more work to ensure they find their way into the hands of important people.

It would be cool if DF smack talk included boasts about wielding a legendary weapon and the weapon's own notable kills.

I doubt BPs will get a kill record as part of a creature, but if they're severed, well, they do become items, so maybe then.  It would be pretty badass to go around killing people with a named elephant tusk.

The mayors of places could know where they were and send you after them.

[alfie275]

In biology, we have sex.

Sorry, could not help it.

[Sizik]

. There are a few side effects I didn't get a chance to handle -- a named item cannot be truly destroyed for instance (it becomes lost, as with a created artifact, and can reappear if you visit the site where it was lost unless in the wilderness).

Does this happen even if you atom-smash the artifact?
