DF General Discussion / Re: MLP and dwarves in ponyville, discuss
« on: January 23, 2012, 03:02:59 pm »
There's several MLP/DF fanfics, although I don't think any is entirely finished, and they are all entirely NSFW.

Anyone interested in both DF and MLP NEEDS to go HERE, to the independent forum that was made when Toady banned MLP threads and where discussions abaut both continue! It even has some members now banned form these boards available to talk to!
When you put it that way, it almost sounds like some sort of fugitive hideout.

Anyone else notice this in the combat logs?

The spear was the one severing limbs at the start.
But the axe couldn't.
How the hell do you stab a bronze collosus' arm off with a spear!?
Note that this is a dwarven spear, the likes of which no man can imagine in complexity.

But seriously, The bronze colossus is a few thousand times wider than a spear, so I have no idea how the dwarves do it. Probably something strange in the way the spear's weapon type works.

I didn't know that was a meme, but I should have expected it as I just saw it today as someone's avatar on these forums.

Dehydration is the most fun any dwarf has.

Certainly sounds like Fun. I think I'll do it next time I get a fort in a part-time freezing biome. (I thought it might be one of those times when physics stop existing in DF) I could probably set something up as a big new year's party for the Dwarfs.

Sorry, couldn't help myself...
Very tempted to make an avatar out of that first one.

Or you could wait for it to freeze over in winter, dig out the ice in the middle and wall it up/floor it over as fast as possible to build your island.
As I've never done it myself before, what would be the consequences of building a fort on top of the frozen river, not held there by any support when it melts?

Dinning room aquarium. Have trap door above it, drop unsuspecting everythings down trap. Happy thoughts for all.

Aww c'mon, don't disappear into oblivion yet! I was getting interested and even planned to ask for a dwarf. If the migrants ever show up, I guess.

I'd ask for a turn myself, but I'm way too busy with exams coming up in a week. If it's alive after that, I'd consider it (it'd be my first time playing a succession fort =O).

204
Lost track of the thread but WHOO I WAS ONE OF THE FINAL FIVE! And I didn't even kill anything. If anything I think I saved lives, having successfully turned off the STFO.

I'll have to begin following Hellcannon or whatever the name be-eth.

Yeah, I think I've got the gauge stuff figured out for the most part, using the two different ones I have here to compare. Getting same sized rings sound like a good idea for now, as I don't want to have a confusing mish-mash of sizes that don't go together. (If say, I plan on making dragonscale and end up having sizes that don't work well) I think I'm going to go with 16 ga for now, as I find the size nice. Uncertain about ring size, though I'm planning an AR between 4ish to 6ish.

Awesome. Turns out I'm going to be able to order some rings somewhere from tomorrow to Monday. Plan to get a pile of aluminum, stainless steel, and a bit of bronze. I'm still trying to get the nonsense sorted out in my head, as this is my first time buying the stuff, so any advice would be pleasant.

I've been learning to play the piano on my own for a little over a year now, off and on. I'm okay, but I haven't done much past playing scales and chords expertly, though I'm getting somewhere. I can read sheet music for the most part, and I like being lazy and converting it to FL Studio things out of boredom. I'd also like to learn to play cello as well, 'cause they are awesome.

General Discussion / Re: Lucid Dreaming and You- Too vivid to remember?
« on: October 23, 2011, 10:48:36 pm »
In most cases, I'd be on board with the "Everyone dreams" thing. However, sciencetm has actually found evidence that some people (person?) who had part of there brain blasted away from shrapnel of a grenade or some such stopped dreaming afterwards.

So yeah, unless you're missing a certain part of your brain, you likely dream. :P

Another note, from my days of looking up dream stuffs, you do actually dream in NREM sleep, but it's more emotion related and not very imagey, broken up and short. Also more connected to current things going on in you life at the time. It has been awhile since I read it, but that's what I got from it.

Finally, on the topic of lucid dreaming, I barely ever have a lucid dream, and the only times it seems to happen are when I'm not trying. First time I completely failed it after sticking my finger through my hand. Felt very...strange. Strange enough that I woke up immediately. The other time was rather boring and I stopped being lucid quickly. I keep a dream journal (that I've been rather slack on lately) and though it's usually filled with detailed dreams, often there are many short pieces recorded in it that I wrote while delirious from just waking up. It's usually absolutely hilarious to read them, especially when I don't even remember writing half of them.

So, finally watched Luna Eclipsed a little while ago. For the most part, awesome stuff, though it does feel different. Perhaps it's just the animation style change. The only part that really bothered me was Pinkie's personality. It was just so...weird. It didn't feel very natural, but I'm hoping that that's just because she was in character for the chicken costume or something, as she seemed a bit more Pinkie Pie-ish for the few moments after revealing that she was being scared for fun. I did metaphorically face palm at the inconsiderateness of her actions though.

I'll just have to hold on until an episode that's not Lesson Zero to see if they've got pinkie's personality down better. Oh, besides that I actually thought everypony seemed to be in character for the most part.

Well, I've never really written anything more than a crummy short story for English (that apparently wasn't as crummy as I thought), but I've been feeling extra creative lately and I've been thinking I might be able to write something cool if I tried hard enough. Likelihood I'll try to write something soon? Relatively high, if I'm not way too busy over the next month. Chances I'll participate in NaNoWriMo? No clue. I should probably check out the link you have there though.
