Now an elf called Michael McKenzie grow a fluffy tail the color of your hair in the obvious location at will.

This time all items and clothing in the room except you disapear.

This time the nearest  shrub comes to life, but only while you are asleep.

New updated version: http://jsbin.com/idifof/106/edit#preview

By now the technical parts pretty much work solidly, although some way to prioritize other than (manual) repetition would be nice. However, more content is needed, and ANYONE can help with that! Even if it's just listing random creatures and materials here for me to add it's good help and makes this thi9ng more communal and stuff! so do that!

"This time simultaneously you are filled with wood energies and your dearly loved little sister is cursed to only speak in Words of Power."

EDIT: wrong link, and **** we're hitting some character limit! What do!?!?!
EDIT2: fixed by making use of the specialized JS section, which also makes bugfixing easier.

Would importing from the DF Raws be a bad thing? (Toady's copyrights?)

Don't tell anyone that you can see their shadows. If they hear you telling anyone, if you let them know that you know of them, they will get you.

Nah, this is a random thing in a thread on his own forums. Doubt it'd be of any use thou, to hard to interpret and mostly made of things that aren't useful. We're probably better of if people look through them and list the things they'd want in and then we add them manually. Go do that.

Yea, we only really gained the length of the HTML segment. It doesn't say anything about a length limit in the FAQ either and it gives no message, just cuts of, so I'd say it's  bug in the site. Anyone have any idea how to fix it or another site to use? It's kinda necessary for this project to continue at all.

Also, a few of the things you added don't quite work out, although it's really my fault for not documenting better:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Maybe this thing isn't as easy for other to mod as I though, it seems to have suffered complex-consideration creep, with way to many gramatical situations needing to be taken into account on many things.


With all these various troubles I'm starting to think maybe we should just call the last version I posted the final one and send it to the creator of the original and so on.

One reason I wish I had access to the DF source code is that I'd love to rewrite some of the text description functions, particularly for the food items. Instead of all lavish meals being 'roasts', select appropriate descriptors based on the type of ingredients, and have processing other that 'mincing' being described.

Actually, some people might have an easier time putting things together in their head than communicating those ideas, so it can be rather useful if you don't mind being exceedingly honest about... well... everything.

It comes to pass that the left index finger of the mother of the first person of the opposite gender that you see enlarges, then you teleport at random until the nearest person learn the value of friendship.

This made me think in dubstep.

Okay, using version 106.

This time simultaneously the nearest statue comes to life and your left leg becomes self-aware.

At least I'll never be lonely.

Quote
This time the mother of your dearly loved little sister is crowned King (or Queen) of the entire world, but only while you're underwater.

So no change. My sister definitely ain't 'dearly loved'.

Now your own nose grows an entire body which then bursts into flames until you spill the blood of the innocent, then spiders and centipedes crawl all over you.
