Yeah, I know.
What sucks is that my slacker-Human is going to stop being on break tomorrow.

Ah, my dwarven heart beats with fierce pride for this.  I can't take it anymore!  I have to go do something profound.

Hush, little Asea, don't you cry.

It was in for a while, but then they took it out. Too unbalanced. It was part of that segment with all those crazy features, called "mythology."
If you want to do it now, you have to do a difficult work-around, and they've coded in negative responses from almost the entire population. Not very fun.

Yeah, it sucks.
And now, they've changed the names. Depending on the type of zombie, it can be anything from a "Cyber-Zombie to a Frankenstein."

I wish they'd put Dragons and magic back in.  They haven't been in since build 1400-ish.  You can tell the Devs are all sci-fi nuts.  They could at least get to work on reintroducing spaceflight.  The beta worked fine.

Well, sci-fi sells. And you know how the markets work, what sells goes in.

It's good though, that there are all these mini-games.

Yeah.
I like it when they put a Minigame in a Minigame.
And how huge the community is for RL.

The good thing about RL is the fact that it's the most advanced serial killer simulation to date. Everything in it is so realistic, even the graphics.

Kinda hard to.
For some reason, every time I try to copy and paste the link, it just kinda..Disappears.
I can tell you what to look up, though.
Or, more to the point, I can tell you to look up.

Close your eyes, blink three times and you should be on the latest version.  If that doesn't update it properly, try sitting in Sleep for about 7-8 hours and that should flush the system out to a fresh build.

The glacier-based volcanoes in DF are at least easy to pronounce.  Eyjafjallajökull -> "Ey-ya-fyat-la-yuh-kutl".  Those crazy Icelanders, everybody else has silent consonants, but they've got little t's hidden in between l's and k's. 

"Silent Spike of Bridging" or whatever is just soo much more obvious :D

Look at Iceland.

Iceland has glaciers flowing down semi-active volcanoes into continental rifts. It's pretty awesome.

And don't forget mount Erebus...

I don't think, that'll help, I'll better try a hard reset next weekend
