I went with artifacianados for 400, Alex.

I look forward to hear how my dwarves will make ever more useless artifacts like a fire agate floodgate or a sweltering limestone and turtleshell toy hammer...

Actually, number one and two would be sligtly interchangeable since number 2 would also involve science (genetics).

As far as genetics goes with DF anyway.

I got a question for Tarn:

Can you record some more awesome guitar music and put them into the game and/or post them on the forum?

It's something he intends to do eventually:

Yeah, I've always wanted to do more music, at least up to having seasonal pieces, but there hasn't been time for it.  I'm still practicing almost everyday, but mostly that's just sitting around improvising and looking for sounds on the fretboard.  The main DF song is still the only one I completed, but a while back I managed to get about 2 mins in on 3 other songs that might work.  Haven't recorded any of it yet, and I'm not sure when I'll get a chance to finish.  I've been meaning to work on those songs with my practice time, but it's been hard to focus on that while I'm still pushing forward on this release.

Go combat! It's the most fun! But really the artifact thing seems rather limited, like it would be best combined with something else.

Also, is this supposed to come out this month? I know DF6 was supposed to be a December release but then it was delayed till January. Are we just going to bump DF7 into early February? It seems like the hardest thing to do to create these talks would be to get everyone together at the same time so if they can manage that I don't see why we couldn't have one this month.

You know incorrectly; it came out exactly as planned.

Oddly enough when I think about it... All of these topics are pretty much bad.

hmm should I even say it outloud?
