Five more days until we find out what happens.

I wonder

Are questions supposed to be styled according to the topic at hand? Since that would certainly explain why the question thread isn't up yet unless they are just going to use their current pool.

It's black as pitch 'cause we're trapped by our violent souls
In a deep mine, where deep rhymes won't keep my self-control
Too many foes, we feel snakebit, and we won't take it
Enemies need their face hit, we goin' ape shit!

Since there's no questions thread yet, I'll put this here.
What do you do in your free time? What other games do you play?

Could Threetoe be in the next podcast?

Man I voted for worldgen, but honestly it's a tossup between scamps and that.  So hard to decide...

I am very interested in the future of the professions, is soap making going to be useful, what do alchemists do, and for the love of blooded carps, are the fucking embargoes going to make sense!!!

We already know soap will be useful. Creatures will use it to wash, and for sanitary purposes during medical care.


Not sure what you're referring to with "embargoes" though.

Embargo- Prohibition of trading/making/bleh of blah

It is a part of trading, and the evil trade of brokers, and nobles...

World-gen!

Workshops are workshops, stuff goes in, stuff comes out, it will be moddable. How much more can be asked that isn't pointlessly specific?

World gen on the other hand has potential for Toady to regale us of visions of the far future, when the game is no longer about one fortress, but about entire countries and continents.
Workshops are where we are, the world is where we're going. I want to hear about the world.

Worldgen for me.  It's kind of the entire point of the game, methinks.

You all better have your questions ready since you will have 4 or less days to come up with them :D

Though I doubt people put THAT much thought into them. (Not a jab at anyone I swear!)

I would bet money Andrew has edited things retroactively, except I can't prove anything because it was edited retroactively.
