Its actually used for the questons we are asking toady, that way they stand out from the rest of the stuff and toady can spot them easier.

I made the whole post green so that the context would be there for the question.

I realize the trade stuff is coming after this release...

The "trade stuff" is not coming after this release
After this release toady will do the improved sieges then he will flesh out adventure mode and maybe then he will do the caravan arc stuff I have no quotes but I am certain thats correct.

If Toady thinks that it will help, he'll do some caravan arc stuff while doing all that. The arcs aren't "do this arc, then do that arc". They tend to be related, and Toady does parts of them simultaneously. Hence this not just being "the combat arc release" like it was originally thought to be.

He he, I've got the parents' laptop on a newspaper with sanitized hands, so I'm not quite ready to get started again.

I can't seem to find that.  Where is it?

Only vaguely. Made of the same substance and put to the same use, but a bit like comparing a castle and a doublewide trailer.

Rather than having them directly force you to mine adamantine, I would suggest that they give you strange moods that require adamantine. "Dig out the adamantine or Urist here goes insane and dies" is suitably vicious.

(It occurs to me that you can probably get "Lovecraft" as the random name of your fortress. That's when you know you're screwed.)

Bay12 games runs on that little, yes, and that's for two people.  I understand Toady has a teaching job to pay the bills.  Clearly he doesn't do DF just for the money.

I'll certainly be sending another donation once the next release is out.  I get as much out of DF as any AAA game, with a hundred times the replay value, so I don't mind paying premium prices twice.

Didn't he quit that job awhile back?

regardless, the slime shooter will be completed, come hell or high water, which are both entirely plausible setbacks at this point.

Yeah, he quit that job over two and a half years ago.  Since then it's all been donations.

He couldn't. It's just that Scamps decided to live with Toady.

Man, I didn't pay an attention to H1N1, never.
