Footkerchief is the search function turned sentient.

No, he's the DF source code turned sentient.

I have a feeling Foot is silently watching this thread.  I think I need to have him on DF Talk some day.  Would you guys like that?

Footkerchief is the guy mature enough to not add a wise-guy comment into this thread, a temptation I would eagerly submit to.

Unfortunately I'm not mature.

Footkerchief is Chuck Norris.

No, its realistic.

I dont think realism is a major concern in a game about alcoholic midgets fighting dragons and soapmen.

That would be cool. You should have me on there too. Would it increase my odds if I bugged you incessantly? I doubt it.

Ironic that he hasn't answered the one question that he is most qualified to answer,  while answering so many other difficult questions.  Not that I blame him.

Sure, and Baughn too. It'd be interesting to hear of all the people that are in the helper team that seems to be forming around Tarn and Zach. Makes me wonder if Bay 12 Games will grow into a bigger company in this organic way.

In the days when Sussman was a novice, Minsky once came to him as he sat hacking at the PDP-6.
“What are you doing?”, asked Minsky. “I am training a randomly wired neural net to play Tic-Tac-Toe” Sussman replied. “Why is the net wired randomly?”, asked Minsky. “I do not want it to have any preconceptions of how to play”, Sussman said.
Minsky then shut his eyes. “Why do you close your eyes?”, Sussman asked his teacher.
“So that the room will be empty.”
At that moment, Sussman was enlightened.

Wait, no. You meant FootKERchief. Yeah, he's just the search function with a new GUI, recently released by Synedyne Industries along with their Skynet program.

Quote from: Phantom
Unknown to most but the insane and the mystics, Tarran is actually Earth itself, as Earth is sentient like that planet in Avatar. Originally Earth used names such as Terra on the internet, but to protect it's identity it changed letters, now becoming the Tarran you know today.
Quote from: Ze Spy
Tarran has the "Tarran Bug", a bug which causes the affected character to repeatedly hit teammates while dual-wielding instead of whatever the hell he is shooting at.

Footkerchief is a Thraddash.

In fact, he is the entirety of the new Thraddash Culture, which has dedicated itself to Dwarf Fortress.

Clearly, this means that at some point Toady defeated the Thraddash in combat...
