What? Would you prefer "S/M club employee?"

Well that's what it means, does it not?

Although I'm even less of a one than I am a gentleman adventurer. But it makes a nice forum profile, don't you think?

And why would anyone believe me a gentleman adventurer? Nothing I do is... gentle.

I'll hand it over to barbarossa.  I got pretty burnt out on this, though I'm moderately worried that if one person quit because of the framerate, a second one will as well. 

I'm going to propose that Sparkgear 3 start passing around a full game file and that we take 2 embark squares (also, maybe keep playing these games in the same universe, just for lulz).

It's a 2001 reference (fits nicely with the avatar).

Think you can brave the cold? How about endless waves of zombies, goblins, and orcs? Check out Talltower the Tall Tower of Ice.

Let's not start planning SG3 quite yet. I want to clear this current list of players before that happens.
We just got to get rid of all this excess stone. The FPS will clear up after that.

Also, glad someone caught it.

I suppose if barbarossa doesn't want it today, I could just run DF unpaused (DTil) and let the workers clear out all the stone some of the stone.

Edit:  Yeah, I guess I'll do that and upload a new save later.

I know it's a little early, but it's good to plan ahead.  I just figured that you were doing a new Sparkgear every month.

Heh, more than likely.
Actually, it seems like a good marker.
I'll go and open up some more slots.

As for planning ahead... I suppose we can do that.
As long as we don't lose sight of the current game.
I was thinking of using the Dig Deeper mod next time around.
Why did you want two start squares, though?

If we're taking suggestions for the next one, can it be a nanofortress?

Playing a cheesemaker in an average Fortress 'round here would be. Freaking. Terrifying.

I'll be keeping it rather compact, yes. Probably not a bona fide nanofort, though. Actually, I have a fort location in mind already. But please, FOCUS people. SparkGear 2 is still going on strong.

EDIT: Oh yeah. One new rule I've been thinking about. Don't leave a huge stack of stones lying around. You dig it, you clean it.

I have complete faith in the cave river being a colossal fuck-up that will flood the fortress. So I'm not worried.

So this is the mod I've been thinking of publicly endorsing.
clicky
It contains among others awesome true and semi megabeasts, orcs, new stones and metals and all-around goodness.
Simply put, Nahkh approves.

The problem with nanofortresses is that it's so damn hard to find HFS and magma pipes in a small-enough area. I'm taking suggestions. This round has definitely shown that infinite supplies of magma are a must. What of HFS? If we use the DD mod we should have plenty of challenge without I guess.

Opinions, please. What makes an embark site a SparkGear site? Magma? Pitchblende? Overall insanity?
