Wait for Next Version, Use current (.40.24,) or use older release (.34.11?)

Wait for the next release. I want usable mugs damn it!

We can use the current one. I like the big trees and slightly smarter dorfs.

I'll take .34.11 thanks. I want to know I'll get to kill things for sure.

No clue. I'd actually have to sit and force myself to play to get it done within the next week or so.

thread briefly devolved into semicoherent morass until Splint intervened

SEMI-coherent? You mean... you could sort of... understand?
Careful... Don't push your luck.

But yeah, I can be crazy sometimes. For instance, once I killed a nest of yellow jackets with a flamethrower. Overkill? Maybe. Fun? Yes.


I need to work on Vanya's story again, but I seem to have lost my motivation. :\

Where did you get the flamethrower?

Deodorant can + cheap lighter = Homemade flamethrower

Be careful with it though, don't use it too long or well... Boom.

When I was in highschool, while the teacher was out of the room, a girl made that and nearly set fire to the room.

Well that girl was an idiot and I doubt somebody that stupid would get any smarter.

I (somehow) wield a marble coffin that i fill with the corpses of all I have slain (to make an already heavy object even heavier) in one hand, and the other holds a book made out out of fucking platinum. The book can crush skulls, and the coffin grows ever stronger and now that is has a few dead dragons in it, it sends people flying a mile backwards to explode in a pile of gore. Gore which I then place into the coffin,

To be fair, you warned them off first, but then I tried to help with a threat of my own only to see it backfire horribly.

When I was in highschool, while the teacher was out of the room, a girl made that and nearly set fire to the room.
I can 1-up that tale.  My dad once told that when he was in boy scouts, a friend of his once decided to fart into a lit match (sidenote: one thing I learned as a scout myself is that there is an unwritten rule requiring all boy scouts to have at least mild pyromania).  In that case it could be said to have backfired a bit more literally.  I'll leave what exactly happened to your imagination but I doubt it was pretty.

Bug spray works better. If you want it to last longer, get a Zippo. Unfortunately, most summer camps know this and prohibit aerosol cans of any sort.

Yeah, I used bug spray and a lighter with a long tip. I went through a phase of mild pyromania myself at one point. However... I'm not sure there's enough methane in a fart to provide anything more than a very (very) brief flash. Not to question your dad's reliability, of course, but I'm a bit skeptical here...

The closest I ever came to burning anything down was actually unintentional. I was cooking syrup on a stovetop and forgot about it for fifteen minutes. It boiled over, and, as you would guess, quickly caught fire. Huge flames and the smokiest mess I've ever seen (I put it out with several cups of water). It was next to impossible to get the solidified sugar off of everything - including the heating element. I had a hard time separating that from the saucepan I was using.

So guys, I've been diagnosed with depression too. Disappointing to say the least. :(
