I've only been here 3 months less than Xantalos.

FAKEEDIT:
Just narrowly averted a tantrum spiral by getting all but one of my dwarves to seal themselves away and waiting for migrants.
Who doesn't love overkill.
My first post kinda sucked.

My first posts were all in the Aurora thread down in Other Games. I lurked on most of the subforums for about a year before that though.

My first post was in this very thread.

My WTF would probably be the fact that the U.S. Military has plans for a zombie apocalypse and alien invasion (Also according to TVtropes we have a plan for a girl scout rebellion but i can't seem to find anymore evidence of that one, but the zombie apocalypse means it's not far out there).

Huh. How about that.

My first post was sharing my fell artifact:

Muzishfubeg, "Martyredstutters", a dwarf bone cage

Made in a Butcher's Shop.

I did send an e-mail to Toady One about this, but I want to see what you all think. (I'm new, by the way- so hi!)

Windmills are wonderful sources of power, but when your map has 0 wind it is a pain in the neck (and unrealistic). Here's a better idea: have each season of your year have a different wind velocity, with the stipulation that there is always one season with wind.

What do you all think?

@Footjob, you can microwave most grains I've tried pretty easily through the microwave, even if they aren't packaged for it.

Oh man you were one of them.

Well. I just had a great idea. It'd work sort of like a stone fall trap.
You have your usual one tile wide dodge trap, and above it you have a floor along it, connected to supports (wagons can traverse supports, right?) And as soon as the lead goblin makes it through, a pressure plate would deconstruct the supports, dropping the floor along the whole bridge. Those that survive the drop would dodge into the pit, and those that don't would be crushed by the deconstructed floor. And you'd have the retractable bridges for the wagons. And for easy building of the floors, you would have retractable bridges above connected to the wall-floors above.

I haven't posted in the WTF thread for a fairly long period of time, so have this.

I don't even have to look up my first post to know that it was about me grossly overestimating the amount of effort required to cause a shift from one age (e.g age of myth) to another and also grossly overestimating my adventurer's affect on the world.

Good to know that my favorite reason for adventure mode back when I didn't know better is going to be my favorite reason for it when it's actually there.

I thought my first post was this one, about a "sky river" bug and the shenanigans that ensured... but actually there were two kinda lame ones before that about mildly entertaining artifacts that I later learned were the norm.

Mine was a post from when DF2010 had just come out, and the revamped item properties and stuff made attacks constantly "glance off" silk clothes.

My first post was one of the most uninteresting things ever.
