MUST MOVE TO WASHINGTON! Damn this convict colony! With its mediocre airport security, I'll never get into the US.

Do a bounce from your favourite island country

The Philippines?

I think he means that state which is an island. What was it called again?

I don't know anyone who plays DF. In fact, I don't know too many people who (still) play video games at all because everyone's so freaking adult and mature and games are for kids. I'm getting kind of sick of it.

I know two and both their brothers play it. Although most of them are more into Minecraft. Other than them I know two others who have heard of it. Ontario, anyone?

There's only 1 person I know who playes DF regularly and I got him into it, so none I guess.

Still in South Australia I don't expect a lot of players.

Sadly, nobody but myself. I've been trying to get my family and friends to play for years. Though one of my friends did play DF in the past.

Especially this one. Story of my and many other people's fucking life. Everyone should watch that.
Also, thanks to linking me to that, it's pretty epic!
Hyup. Video games are just for kids, apparently. I think it counts double for Dwarf Fortressers, though. Play a game about a husky Italian guy who tramples turtles to death, you're just a little weird. But play one game where it's possible to dismember a man and beat his wife and children to death with his severed leg, and all of a sudden people are up in arms. Hmph.

Think of it like Sim City, except with rival mayors that seek to destroy your citizens by arming legions of homeless people and sending them to attack you.

I realy liked the latest section on sexual diversity, on the basis that about half way through I thought to myself "Well DF is covered, because it has elves!"

i know noone in the outside world, thats heard of let alone played df. I guess the most effective way to spread it beyond militant recruitment would be putting it on steam, although i doubt this is feasible.
