I almost feel like I'm spiting on my heritage when I say that I love the Australian outback. Love it to bits and want to visit as often as possible

Just to show how shitty our mountains are.

I really hope that's the angle and the "mountain" isn't really as small as it looks...

Magma chamber?

In DF, volcanos in the middle of swamps always tend to make strange mountain formations.

South Korea!

Well, actually I'm a New Zealand from a city the Rolling Stones called "the arsehole of the world!" and also ex-England rugby captain Brian Moore labelling it "the Chernobyl of the South Island."

First ten minutes of play I ate my loincloth and then got some limbs torn off by a super friendly rat. Thumbs up from me.

Two completely different things. Also you are wrong, it is not.

A batholith requires the rock to be igneous intrusive. Uluru is made from sandstone, a sedimentary rock. A monolith is just a blanket term for one large rock (i.e. Uluru), it's meaning is derived from two ancient greek words that mean 'one (or single)' and 'stone'.

Interestingly, Armok's name actually originates from arm_ok, a variable in one of Toady's earlier games that kept track of how many of your arms weren't missing.

Good, you can help us move all the dirt and sandbags left over from the flood. Careful of the roads though, the backhoes kinda took a few chunks out of them while we were constructing the dikes. Also careful not to fall in the giant holes that use to be our schools socker field. We were in a pinch for dirt.  :P

Then think of a codeword and say it to everyone you know. It has to be sensible or people will alienate you
