DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Re: What's going on in your fort?

This is the second siege. My militia is 25 strong, with 5 marksdwarves and 20 ground troops. A large group of goblins simply climbed over the walls and neutralized the marksdwarves.

Long story short, I didn't win.

Were those the actual messages?
Not verbatim, I made up some of it for the effect, but the recruit did single-handedly defeat a major siege with no real help. I don't know what caused him to go on the killing spree in the first place, but I like to think that his beard was cut by a Goblin.

Edit: SwiftKey confuses me sometimes. It just added a random word somewhere.

DF General Discussion / DF Worldgen benchmark
« on: April 17, 2016, 07:12:47 am »
I'm going to upgrade my PC by a huge degree soon, and I want to know exactly how much it improves, since I really have no idea. I never really do that kind of stuff. I could calculate a billion Pi digits before and after the upgrade, but A) I would have no idea what to make of the results, since I never really did that before, and B) because I want a more elaborate plan. Calculating Pi is too simple. :P

So my plan is to ask a bunch of people to generate DF worlds at some very specific settings, and tell me how long it took.

Would that, in any way, accurately give me an idea of what to expect of my upgrade, and how good the upgrade really was compared to the expectations?

Woo!

He is very tall and lean. His beard is clean-shaven. His mustache is clean-shaven. His hair is neatly combed. His skin is pale chestnut. His eyes are green.
He is strong, quick to heal, tough, and almost never sick, but he is quick to tire.
Latias1290 likes gold, adamantine, platinum, aluminium, puzzleboxes, and foxes for their cunning. When possible, he prefers to consume pinapple. He absolutely detests spiders.
He has a great feel for music, a sharp intellect, good intuition, an amazing spatial sense, an astounding feel for the position of own body, but he has a very bad sense of empathy, a meager ability with social relationships, a little difficulty with words, a poor memory, meager creativity, and poor focus.
He is self-conscious. He has a very calm demeanor. He is very slow to anger. He occasionally overindulges. He is absolutely impervious to the effects of stress. He is somewhat reserved. He prefers to be alone. He is assertive. He is very active. He isn't given to flights of fancy. He does not have a great aesthetic sensitivity. He tends not to openly express emotions. He is open-minded to new ideas. He is modest. He is very confident. He is disorganized. He is occasionally given to procrastination. He often does the first thing that comes to mind.

A medium-sized creature prone to great ambition.
