Sorry, older post of mine....

On FFA, go to the 4 corners of the map, preferably in a circle, and return to the original corner. In one life. For extra points, don't bother becoming to large.

I tried bribing my way out of sticky situations, which works if you make it not worth their while to eat you fast enough, or split-leaping, which is risky, or detours, which tend to stack... Having to go in one direction really changes the game, but I've completed it twice or so today, after I thought of it.

Oh, and you name yourself Columbus. Because he might not of been the first guy to go round the world or even reach America and it wasn't his idea or anything, but whatever.

My question is, if a dwarf chained in a jail cell can reach the chair, but not the table, will they still use it for dining?

They will use the chair over nothing, but I'm not sure if they'll use the table, as I think they task the roast too it, and don't think dwarves can operate w/ something like a lever without being on it. But actually, that doesn't make much sense, as you sit at a table. So I guess that all I can say is that you shouldn't think in terms of them putting it on a table, but of them interecting with the table.

What on earth is it with animal sexuality and DF? I'm not a farmhand or biologist, but I was really quite sure that spiders were not homsexual, generally.

I for one would love more VARIETY in FBs, like why can't the breath misama and magma mist, and be random body parts like hands, heads or feet, or be actual recombinations of creatures e.g. a scaley ram with the legs of a kangaroo and the beak of a kea?

Awesome! Then again, it *might* make artifacts less special... still, I'd love to be able to create a world where pretty much every civ was entirely full of artifacts...

Just got a nice bit of emergent gameplay: named myself columbus, tried to speedrun round the whole map, all 4 corners, managed it too, went back to the corner I went to to start at. Quite fun. Some people were fairly confused, as they kept eating segments of me, as I split for speed, but I never attacked them, and generally was in 4 regular pieces, never having bothered to eat anyone. Not too hard a challenge.

Ugh. I might try Baffler's, sometime today.

Yes. Especially the exclamation marks, in increasing quantity.
