Fecking Lich. She does not want peace? Fine.
Oh forgot that. Just pretend that The Scout was being really loud and obnoxious,so you couldn't hear her.

"Misko, why don't we just declare a ceasefire? Let everyone recover, and in a few months or so, come to a more permanent agreement."
I TRIED THAT. There are a large number of people who really don't care. My OWN side will go AWOL. You've gotta realize here, I'm under pressure from everyone. I feel like a Politician, balancing everyone's needs.

Can this be continued in secret?

"misko, "your" side was bound only by hate of the lichette. You included a lawful good mechanical dragon who was actually only partly interested in killing her alongside an eldritch abomination who wants to destroy the universe. Not exactly the Justice League.
"Or the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants."
*swat drone out of way impatiently*
"Look in your heart, you know it to be true. Hate cannot unite for more than a little. Love unites eternally, etc etc, seriously what were you thinking?"
Because good is dumb. And evil is awesome.
"Oh, one moment, the guy who accidentally trapped himself is trying to say something mocking to me."
You trapped me, actually. I had no idea you were about to turn into a faction leader.
You were trapped during your own action, and my action had nothing to do with trapping you!

Oh, and incidentally you are unlikely to ever live this down. Just an FYI.

Making a huge calculator is difficult.
Making a huge door won't be.

There's a difference between a megaproject and something that the game specifically has rules for. Is building a window out of polished stones a megaproject?

I'm not against the idea, but as long as drawbridges can act as placeholders and there's more interesting fruit to pick--some of which, e.g. moving fortress parts, will make it easier to make and more interesting and worthwhile-it can wait.

It's very possible to have societies with equal treatment for men and women and acknowledge eachothers genders through gender-specific pronouns. We're close to having that situation in modern times in English speaking countries such as the USA and the UK.
Dude! I'm not a "language equals thought" pseudo-liberal eco-feminist! ("Pseudo-liberal eco-feminist" - now there's something I can use to shut up people on campus!) All I'm saying is that you don't usually need these distinctions - because of context. At least most of the time it's quite clear that the table did not place Alice on the mug.
Language doesn't equal thought, but thought equals language.

I don't know how sticky or viscous it needs to be, but I'd imagine that, at a minimum, some unpleasant procedurally generated stuff would be. In any case, honey would be better than oil, no? Therefore, it makes sense to have a progression of "Severely hurts your clinging abilities" to "Slightly impairs your clinging abilities" to "Helps you cling."
Try thinking about the ration of adhesive-covered surface to body mass - you'd need some damn good glue to stick to the wall. That's why a gecko can run up a window, but you won't be dooing that anytime soon.
Actually, geckos walk on walls due to various electromagnetic forces in the ends of microscopic hairs called setae. These are capable of holding humans, if you made enough artificial setae.

Toady shouldn't really have to work on the music too. Let the other guys do it.
Seriously, you guys are suggesting MUSIC?!?! I play with DF muted most of the time, so I'd rather see those 3 days spent doing something to improve game play, or at least UI. So many things we could suggest, and you suggest...music?

No, me! Join Aperture Science's Moderates, we have cake!
We have a bargain. Plus my faction is dedicated to eternal killing.
Your faction is devoted to killing everything, ONCE.
Also, cake.

ASSIMILATE ALL OTHER NUMBERS IN EXISTENCE. ALL SHALL BECOME 5

ATTEMPT TO DESTROY MARS BY BREACHING STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY OF VOLCANIC CORE.
LAUGH.
[3] You send the demons to smash stuff. They join the demonic hordes. [6] You hurl the core into a superheated frenzy, melting the whole inner part of the planet and part of the crust. Oops. [2] You can't bring yourself to laugh at something this horrible.

SAVE SETTLEMENT.
Become mecha!
Kill deamons.
[5] The settlement is saved! [4] You are a mecha. [1] You are killed by demons.

GM TURN:
The demons [6] sorta blast at the settlement hard enough to smash it Ito the growing core. There is now a huge, growing lake of lava where the colony once was. They pause to consider the implications.
Dr. Kong [3] turns Doomburger into an orbit-capable spacecraft. He urges everyone nearby who isn't a demon to board.
Oh, and mcclay, Vorthon: Respawn?
