I'm predicting a significant increase in the number of folks logged in to the forum at about 10 PM Eastern.

They cannot aim while they shoot, so they are clearly disadvantaged.

Threetoe is a member of the development team. He generally has no involvement with the programming side of things, so he probably didn't have any interaction with the crash bug, but Toady still refers to Bay12 as "we," for reasons of inclusiveness.

This already happens.  It's what causes the messages like "bruising the muscle through the rope reed tunic".

Also TT does help with playtesting.

It took me 3 hours to track down that stupid crash bug.  Please!

This is entirely understandable  When programming and playtesting, you can never be sure unless someone has seen it first-hand.
But at least it saved everyone from another bugfix release like 2 hours after the first one... hopefully.

More like we finally have proof of what I have suspected all along: Toady is actually a combined entity created from the amalgamated souls and skill of a thousand programmers.

[shadow_archmagi]

whoops, I just got distracted fixing bugs and slipping in more features

this is why I will never complain about late releases.

We are just starting the final release compile.  Should be about 5 hours.  You are really going to enjoy hacking up all the monsters in Adventurer mode.
