DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Re: Most unintentionally hilarious notification you've gotten?
« on: April 15, 2011, 04:28:40 pm »
Not so much funny as briefly frightening.  My soldiers were attending a miscellaneous object drill...when I was looking through the jobs list to see if there were any idlers that needed reassignment, it was listed as "Misc. Object Demons".

What's happened to me occasionally is the diplomat dies of old age upon arrival, which triggers a siege in most cases.

My local civilization is named The Sizzling Merchant and our emblem is a group of brine haunts...good thing the magma sea is fairly close at hand.

Considering I'm doing my Master's in accounting...I guess you could say I'm already a master record keeper.  I'd gladly keep track of everything as bookkeeper.

Jesus made the lame walk, but only Toady can make them spar.

no offense to christians or non-christians or anyone who might feel easily offended

That sounds like a movie tagline.

158 issues fixed in one month...damn.  That has to be a record.

Depends.  If I have good supplies of iron/flux for equipment and a fairly defensible location, I tend not to use them; doubly so if I choose to be fairly conservative with early trading to keep my wealth levels low.

However, if I feel I need defense and fast (due to a lack of metals for weaponry) or if there are certain special items on the map inflating my wealth I use them because it sucks to lose a fort because of something I couldn't really control.  Of course, making all of those mechanisms levels up my mechanics quickly and increases fortress wealth even faster, but by and large the products of that training regimen will make it more than worthwhile.

Either way, looks like .22/.23 will be the most stable release we've had so far.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAhaahahahahahahahahaahahahahaahahahahaahahahahahahahahaaaaaaa. Well played sir!

Hey, we have to be realistic...there's still a ton of stuff out there that needs fixing.  At least it's not 0.31.01.

Equipping-related bugs (both civilian/military) and any new issues that pop up in this release, along with cleanup of some trivial items; nothing too heavy because I'd like to see further progress on the Caravan Arc, although at the same time it has been well worth the wait given the quality and quantity of the fixes. Of course, I'd also like to see some improvements on the performance side but I have no problem with incremental improvements in that area over the course of new releases.

Either way, looks like .22/.23 will be the most stable release we've had so far.

Nvm, savescummed and went back a couple months.  Not worth losing one of my fortress' most popular dwarves.

I pause the screen as they all head toward my fort and give them jobs before hand. If they have are high-master cooks or whatever then they do what theyre designed but i usually use them as farmers or masons. The really useless ones get to battle in the arena

Same here, sans the arena.  I never know when I might need to replenish my military.
