I am bribing people with Google Wave invites to try to get forgiveness for making a thread attempting to give out Google Wave invites? My, I am a rather silly person, aren't I?

Honestly, if it is that big of a deal that two topics are somewhat related I'll lock this one and post in the other. But in that case should we not merge all topics about Google related services? Considering that are all somewhat related?

Edit to Armok: Sent. Keep in mind that "Invitations will not be sent immediately. We have a lot of stamps to lick." so I have no idea when you will actually get it. Probably should have mentioned that in the first post, come to think of it. And I see no reason to hold onto them when there are people out there who can actually put them to use.

Yes, I am aware of that topic discussing Google Wave. I am here to give out invites for those interested.

General Discussion / Anyone interested in Google Wave? (invites gone)
« on: November 14, 2009, 04:42:03 pm »
Been following it for a while, absolutely fell in love with the idea. I finally got the chance to use it, sadly I know of no one else who is using it so I cannot do much with it. However, I have 8 invites. Two of those are reserved for family, however I'd much rather give it to members of the Dwarf Fortress community than other random folks on the internet. Not sure how many people have access to it right now, but I'd hate to waste my invites like I did with Gmail Beta.

Any takers? First six people to post their email addresses will be given an invite. But please only post it if you are truly interested in using it.

Google Wave in my God, and yes, I am a total Google fanboy.

DF Modding / Help editing the "reaction_standard" file.
« on: October 24, 2009, 11:52:09 pm »
So, I am tired of pretty much every other dwarf who goes into a fey mood asking for shells, I can't give it to them, they try to kill people because they can't get said shells, and it starts the destruction on my fortress. I have gotten to the point where I dread getting moods, because it means the chance that someone is going to ask for shells.

So, I hate myself for saying it; but I want to cheat.

The thing I need help with is how to make it conjure up the shells.

PRODUCT:100:2:BAR:NO_SUBTYPE:METAL:BRASS

^How do I make something like that give shells? I don't know what to put in.

Assuming it can be done, I was thinking of making it take 20-30 metallic bars to give me one shell, assuming that is doable. Sure it is still magic shell conjuring cheating, but it will make me feel a little less pathetic for being a cheater.

Having more problems with fey dwarfs. I got a dwarf go into a fey mood, but they will not claim a workshop. I have built every workshop in the game (excluding Alchemist's Laboratory) but he is just sitting there, being fey.

Like I said, I've build every workshop, the magma forge is working, I built the Metalsmith's Forge as well, and have at least one of everything else. They are all working and accessible.

Does anyone know of any memory editing tricks to figure out what one he wants? Or what I may be doing wrong this time?

DF Gameplay Questions / Can you starve traders?
« on: October 22, 2009, 05:12:45 pm »
Simple question, if you lure some elves into the trade depot, and then wall it off, will the eventually starve in there and die?

DF Gameplay Questions / Plant Fiber Cloth?
« on: October 21, 2009, 08:33:24 pm »
Sorry to keep asking these questions.

A dwarf went into a strange mood. He wants both rough gems and plant fiber cloth.

I have no idea on how to get plant fiber cloth.

DF Gameplay Questions / Re: Wow, epic fail. (fire question)

Oh, I knew there was nothing you could do for a burning dwarf, my question was if there was anything I can do about the fire itself.

DF Gameplay Questions / Wow, epic fail. (fire question)
« on: October 21, 2009, 03:40:37 pm »
I was doing very well. Got some migrants, struck platinum, made some ludicrously priced meals to rip off traders with, oh, and everyone died in a fire.

So, before I even knew what was going on six of my dwarfs died in a fire. I found the fire (or rather, a ton of smoke). Didn't know what to do so I looked up on the wiki and the wiki pretty much said I couldn't do anything.

I tried restricting the kitchen area, and making the alternate rout a high priority that wasn't much longer in the first place. Nope, they kept going through the fire. I've lost too many to bother continuing. But is there anything I can do to either stop them from walking into the fire or put the fire out?

DF Gameplay Questions / No goods?
« on: October 21, 2009, 02:37:07 pm »
So, none of my caravans have any goods in them. They go to the depot, I can go into the trading screen, they just don't have anything to trade. What would cause this? There have been three empty caravans so far.

Creative Projects / Re: Heyho! Andd..Im working on DF Multiplayer

For the most part, I'd have no problem with this.

My only problem would be that, by his own admission, he has not asked permission by the owner of the game to do this. He has said that he "plans" to email him, though he claims he already has a somewhat working version. Let's say he works on this for the next few months, gets it all pretty and playable (in a alpha-playable sense), and then the owner of Dwarf Fortress says "lolno" at him. He is either going to go against him, that being wrong, or would drop it and have wasted quite a bit of time, that being stupid.

DF General Discussion / Re: I had a dream last night...
« on: October 21, 2009, 10:40:23 am »
Honestly, all of my Dwarf Fortress dreams suck, my perspective is actually of the computer screen. I had one last night, it was more like an altered memory than a dream. It was me trying to work on a project, but the game just wouldn't work. The only thing that was even unrealistic was I could look "around" a mountain (magic-dream-vision) while still looking at the front of it. Before I went to sleep I was struggling to collapse a mountain, so I continued to struggle after I went to sleep.

I have had several dreams like that, I don't have non-nightmare dreams, though. So no good or interesting ones to share about Dwarf Fortress, mostly just finding some awesome metal that isn't in the game, then the game crashes. Or a Dwarf who is legendary in everything comes to my fortress, and is killed by a pack of wolves. Things to that nature.
