Huzza I didn't get killed by it, and I'll keep it around just in case I find a door it'll fit in.

What kind of small angel statue was it that doesn't fit in standard size doors?

People today are used to these types of statue-based security systems being standardized, but older door locks could have been fitted for all sorts of varying sizes of angel statue. For some doors the statue will fit directly in a tasteful but ominous bas-relief with a clear missing piece, for others the statue will be very large (like 600lb) and need to be pushed onto a nearby pressure-sensitive plate, and in other cases the statue needs to be closely inspected for a hidden compartment with another key (possibly itself another, smaller statue).

Don't forget that older statues were much more poorly constructed and came apart easily, so you might have to assemble it before you can open your door.

If you happen across any small gems, be sure to try to fit them into the eyes, or maybe place them into its hands.

Apparently there's a DLC for Master of Magic. A glorified mod, but still.

I love Caster of Magic a lot and wrote more than I meant to, so I put my reply in the thread for games that don't deserve their own thread

Just a standard sized one no sockets or anything like that, so it probably just fits into a standard door.

I am getting errors from the forum left and right. When I click any link, be it a topic, board- Anything that moves me triggers it.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

"500 Internal Server Error"

I appears about 50% of the time.

Is it because of the guest surge? The errors, I mean.

The game just released, people are flocking in to get their answers. 400 or so guests. Is the forum software overloading?

I mean, probably? That or the Bay 12 Forums getting bot-attacked now that it's getting extra attention.

Okay... It's getting better. The worst has passed.

I'd like to see the forts some of these bots can make

[pisskop]

Wow, this site is borderline overun today.  I expect it will be for a couple days.  Good for Toady.  Great success!!

I'll be interested to see how the statistics for newbie signup and such look as a result lol.  Donations?

Not for me, damn thing is freaking out with these errors for me today, can't really look at anything because of them.

DF is the best selling game on Steam right now! WTF?

And I suspect that these errors may be here to stay for a while. Many people are having their first steps into DF, and they are coming here for advice.

364 guests. Yeah...

There were 10 times as many people on the forum over a year and a half ago, I don’t think the issues are related to the numbers.

I would assume that was momentary. I think that time was when Kitfox made landfall here. They brought with them alot of first-timers, which flooded to see around and quickly left off.

Something is causing continuous strain. Are we gettiblng cyberattacked?
