That would be awesome.

That's not the case, in my experience. It's completely unmodded, and I'll try to confirm anything that's in any doubt if I reasonably can.

Nooooooo... any tamed animal will get the stray tag. Even vermin.

Strange, I don't remember that. Oh well. I retract my statement.

I guess I should do less modding and more actual playing, heh.

I guess so, as the minute I tamed a giant eagle on my tower-fort (see earlier) it instantly became a Stray giant eagle.  And then the game crashed and corrupted the save..  Ah, instability..  who knew you could be so cruel.

Whoops. I have had a few busy days, so I haven't got time to look or reply. Looks like the thread is still alive   :D.
So, Tayrin wins different awards! Woohoo!
And now, to encourage some people to post records, I'll FINALLY put some records myself.

I have decided to change the frankenstein apprentice to the largest amount of body parts. You do get twice the amount of points for an entire set of limbs, though   :D.

   

P.S.: Yes, I changed it because my attempts in any other record resulted into untold stories of horror and drama.

The more records you post, the better. As long they do not make me face the fact that I am the worst DF-player ever too much.

That would mean you can fry seven nobles simultaneously!
That makes it the best invention ever! Well, the second best. Were would we be without dwarven beer?

Thanks, Asheron! It's good to hear you don't mind maintaining the records. It seems you didn't update my name for most wealth generated, though. :P

Thanks again, Asheron.

I finally made an attempt at the Goofy Golfer award, with a giant leopard in a desert.

I think it was propelled a distance of around 157 tiles, but I'm not absolutely certain, so people are welcome to try verifying that.

Edit: I counted the steps from where the giant leopard had originally been standing, using pieces of a dead demon to mark the distance at regular intervals, and it did indeed turn out to be 157 steps. Anyone who wants to verify the distance anyway can still feel free, so that I'm not just giving my word for it.

Whoah... I counted 157 tiles too. My eyes hurt now  :(.
That is impressive, I never got anything to fly past twenty tiles.
Here is another entry of me:

Four weapons. Quite meager, but blame that on the fact I found no gaurds what so ever.

Weapon-specific Goofy Golfer: 16, with an iron scimitar.

Headhunter: If skulls count, 13.  If not, 11.  10 wolf heads, including one named one that ripped my Drunk apart, two groundhog skulls, and one cougar head.

Unfortunately, I didn't take a screenshot before getting knocked into a river and swarmed by two alligators and a lamprey.

For "Frankenstein's apprentice"  do lower bodys count as a body part?

EDIT: If they do then the new record is 35, if not then it is 22. I will be uploading photo proof as soon as I can get it to upload.

EDIT2: here it is

yellow marks are lower bodies red are everything else.

*revives the thread with his necro powers*

It saddens me to hear not everyone has read or heard about Moin yet, and thus, I have added the Moin Award. Granted out of sheer stupidity.
