Psst, I just got an idea.

Throw some coke and some bars of soap into a metal bin, then ignite.

"clean coal"

[Akhier the Dragon hearted]

woot desinating the wall before you ignite the block works! all you get is a regular wall and a mason on fire but it works also:

well guess what it keeps the flame even if its a wall! this could be a way to store burning blocks without them degrading and because its a regular wall no heat to kill you with. also if you made a floor with it and calapsed the floor you have a instant gobo be gone trap!

[Wolfius]

So the gobbos could be crushed and set on fire at the same time? Talk about adding insult to injury. 

[Akhier the Dragon hearted]

the first ones would be crushed outright then the rest would try to go through and go crispy on yah!

[Jim Groovester]

Ah, Dwarf Fortress, cleverly draining the ocean since fall 2007.

Using magma and fuel, it would be trivial to design a device that would automatically set the outside on fire. Everytime a goblin siege arrives, flip the lever, and the flaming underbrush strips away all that narrow giant junk and the flesh leaving only the economically usable parts of the goblin.

[Akhier the Dragon hearted]

gobos are like a rock! you hit one and you have a chance at getting iron out of it.

You know how environmentalists are always saying how global warming will melt the polar caps and raise ocean levels?

Now we know what to do with the gigantic amounts of coal the US is sitting on.

well atleast it explains why we use so much of it! secretly we are holding back the ocean! also ever wounder what fps god gets on the universe?

Personally, I think he just plays the game in world-gen mode, with detailed announcements of what's going on at the civ level.

1,00*10^googol

This number still has name - it is precisely one googolion.

[Akhier the Dragon hearted]

and with a wave of my hand the whole thread derailed!

now thats magic folks.

I'm sincerely sorry, I did not acknowledge fluids into my calculation, let me recap:

1,00*10^-googol

That should be more accurate now.

[Akhier the Dragon hearted]

instead of forts god would run worlds! wait that would explain why we havent had aliens come to us or what not. its just like in DF while stuff runs here we need someone to go to them like when in adventure mode you enter a town and everything has to wake up to start.

He is talking about a googolplex.
