A cavy sow is a female guiney pig....or however you write that.
In Dutch those are caled 'cavia' by the way.
also:
this

That's not a cavia, ik weet toch wel hoe zo'n beest er uit ziet ! (wikiwiki) ah, but it is a cavy, which is more of a general name.
But thanks, at least I know what he's trying to feed...

[Areyar]

Yeah guineypig/cavia is this

Few days ago saw an eppisode of "Eureka", in which a robot sheriff had his language chip broken and could only speak dutch... it sounded like dutch, but in reverse. luckilly it was translated into american shortly after: in hindsight the actor was speaking true dutch, not gobbledeegook, but in awfull pronunciation and without any feeling for rithm or tonality.

it seems when honey badgers enrage, there's no message for it, just for when it goes un-enraged.

No, no.  That is normal.

The default state for a honeybadger is seething rage.

Also, if you're watching them, it's very clear they are !ENRAGED!, so a warning isn't really necessary.  Your citizens will get scared and warn you about said scaredness if they're really in danger...

I am really enjoying this and was waiting for the release with much anticipation.  I really want a penguin so where would I go about finding one?

The only problems I have had was with worldgen being really slow around year 150 and beyond. I tested it on my Linux laptop and just disregarded it as a processing error.  I tested it on windows and did the same.  No big deal I understand there is a lot going on with world gen since 40d.  Site finding was kinda laggy too but also I understand that has changed.

Oddly noticed I embarked at a temperate place and there was snow and ice... I don't know if this is a bug and how would I go about melting ice so I can get water .

I suggest you look up the meaning of the word 'temperate'

it generally means places that have snow in the winter.

there are ways to thaw ice, but it's generally easier to dig for water.

[izraqthedark]

Strange all the snow just disappeared.  Did it melt all of a sudden or is that a bug?

Just wait until your most important dwarves are in the middle of crossing the frozen water. It'll melt then.

it's called spring. it comes between winter and summer, it's when the temperature starts rising and stuff melts.

And Canadians (Like myself) rejoice.

For two reasons:
1. It stops being so fucking cold
2. Roll up the Rim to Win

[Xelanthol]

It's supposed to stop being so F*ing cold however we just got shit on here in guelph. 

All hail roll up the rim. I have my free donut waiting.

I'm excited for the next quick bug fix to this version, a lot of people are having this unconscious dwarf problem in healthcare... Once that gets patched up I am really enjoying this version. I have to say this is my best fortress yet!

I believe its Rrrrrroll up the rim to win.

I don't understand this rimming talk at all...
It is cold enough for water to solidify in winter and warm enough for it to turn liquid again in spring/summer in temperate climates, it's what temperate means: in between freezing-all-the-time and boiling-all-the-time.

on the bright side: it is finally weekend and we can all unpack this new version for some much anticipated healthcare and other stuff. joy!

a pitty, I liked the name of my .20 fortress. Nosingdoran, the mechanism of pinnacles... hmm that doesnt sound as cool as I remember. . . maybe it was in .19 Kadôlsákrith, the Entrancing Manor...funny for an aboveground fort maybe,but nah.
Oh well, no issues then, got rid of plenty of great forts for less than a new version before. (actually they are still on my HDDs, just neglected.)

[Urist McAddict]

Is it just me or i have a [offensive language] case? I had a bunch of ppl who got bruised by punches and they gone to bed to rest in the hospital... Sound like my chief medic just used them to practice everything... I don't get it... Help me Toady!

I'll check if it reproduces...
