Considering how rare and far-apart updates are I think deisgnating them to certain days would be a bit pointless. 18 months since the last update? Well it was on a sunday so I guess this one better be on a sunday as well.

Thelastupdatewasprobablynot18monthsagooronasundayanythingIsayordoanditscorrelationtoactualeventsispurelycoincidental.

There really needs to be a sticky thread somewhere explaining to people why a UI update won't happen for a good time.

The UI is functional. It works. It might be butt-ugly and a bit convoluted but it does its job. If you've played DF as much as you say you have then surely you've grown past worrying about the UI. I (and most other players) would much prefer new game features than reworking of things that already work exactly as intended and really wouldn't contribute to expanding the game in ay way.

Also, money ≠ work on UI. I'm not sure how you came up with that idea, but it's not a good one. You'd be better off camping outside his home with a protest sign.

I've once recruited a band of soldiers into my party only for them all to instantly and simultaneously drop dead after leaving the travel map and taking three steps with them. The times at which people die of old age seem to be a bit weird at the moment.

That's what you get for recruiting your soldiers from the Don Quixote Retirement Home.

They were experienced and eager to get outdoors again!

I don't think I've ever been in a situation where an aquifer would have really been useful to me.

I totally support lava tubes and sand (I really like embarking in deserts).
As far as geology, I prefer flatter areas, coasts/beaches and deserts/rocky wastelands. The scarcity of trees in the latter two make things more interesting and encourage me to begin smelting as soon as possible.

I wonder if there would be some way to turn a dead leader into a mummy without [OPPOSED_TO_LIFE]. That would be pretty cool, just turn the civ into a necrocracy.

Oh no. I'm almost certain that Deebus travelling with a companion can only end badly.

Although... if Deebus died and Tlukankus survived she could take his stuff and pretend to be him... turn Deebus into a legacy-hero. THAT would be awesome.

I believe in older versions it was possible to become part of a religion by talking to a priest which would give your adventurer the same options. I'm guessing this is just a relic of that.
