The RNG is trying to tell me something.
« on: May 18, 2010, 07:47:32 pm »

I was renaming a fortress before embark and one of the random names that came up was Squashedfortress. Huh.
I kept it for the lulz and moved on to the group name. The Laborious Avalanche. Why?! What, exactly does the RNG know that I don't? Is it predicting the future or something? I will make this fortress invulnerable to all threats big and small, SIMPLY TO SPITE YOU, RNG!

Then suddenly, a Slade Titan comes along and squashes your fortress.

(Thank god that shit's impossible.)

Don't ask what I had to do to get him to like me.

It wasn't worth it.

I once got a fort called Crypttunnels or something to that effect. I still think the best fort name I ever got out of the RNG was Goldenshowers; I built a large waterfall out of solid gold.

My current fortress is called Bodicegrasped.

A civilization in a previous game was known as "The Mountainous Bodices".

Yeah.

What the heck is a bodice?

Yes. Clearly a bug that ought to be fixed in the future, but exploit it in the meantime.

 It's a type of garment that women wore around the 16th century.  Basically, they lace up from the front and look like a cross between a corset and a tunic.

According to my Oxford, "The upper part of a women's dress", excluding sleeves.

Tits, anyone?
