it's not dirt, it's ground-up microline. and it's good for beard growth.

You should try the orthoclase special sometime. It may look like piss but... okay, well, it kind of tastes like piss too.

I use a lead mug, it cuts down on the dirt taste.

I see nothing wrong with it being difficult for someone who knows what they're doing to fail and starve to death. DFs learning curve is steep enough as it is; making it difficult for an experienced player to succeed at something so simple as feeding your starting 7 would make the game virtually impossible for newcomers.

Perhaps large and/or long-established fields could suffer from pests or blight? Edit: to be dealt with by... what? soap? cats? magma? Maybe not. Can of worms. Nevermind.

Maybe coming in and stealing from your feild in a single file line is the goal of antmen?

They could come in take crops, and fight back if interrupted.
They could also use some ant path finding, namely they find a path ONCE, and freak out if its interrupted

Magma huh? It is truly the answer to the question "How do I kill it?" "Kill it with FIRE!"

It would be awesome/terrible if this came out and my game came on the same day.

Awesome because I would have two awesome games to play, and terrible because I would have to choose between them.

Although it may be a bit premature, I'd like to give a big thank you to the anonymous Alpha-Alpha testers; you have our thanks, and our undying jealousy.

I still think that the whole fortress should be flooded with magma the moment you try dividing by zero.
This could be a handy way of teaching preschool children mathematics.

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

Pokemon SoulSilver. I have really lost faith in the pokemon games, but this one looks to actually be pretty good. I'm thinking of trying to find my old GBASP and Silver version so I can brush up on the landscape.
