SO, I noticed that uncyclopedia did not have a dwarf fortress page... so I started one  ;D

http://uncyclopedia.org/wiki/Dwarf_fortress

now, for those that dont know...

Uncyclopedia is an encyclopedia full of misinformation and utter lies. You might say it puts the "psych!" in "encyclopedia". It's sort of like Congress or Parliament, but unlike Congress or Parliament, we do have a sense of humor. Nonetheless, this is one of the only factual pages, before everything turns into a puddle of utter confusion and disarray. Savor it. And for the love of Sophia, we know you like disarray, (and confusion) but stop adding confusion to this non-confusing page which leads to confusion, and possibly disarray. Which we wish to stop. Non-non-confusion, that is. Not disarray. Or is it the other way around?


SO, since DF is FULL of bugs, silly things that can happen, nobles, socks, hfs, giant cave spiders, elves, dwarfs, humans, !!s E's %'s beer, ale, cats, cages, hydras, lava,  and random names... It should be easy to create a page that is written in the ways of dwarf fortress!

SO, get writing!  ;D



this article sucks and you suck. next time you have an idea, just forget it

I think Escaped Lunatic is an accurate assessment in this case

The part about gameplay has been there quite a while now, and it is by far the best part of that page.

Seconded.  Uncyclopedia has never amused me, not once, ever.  DF's wiki quote page has more humor poking fun at DF than your article.

For example

Quote
Dwarf Fortress has taught me that all the world's problems would be substantially reduced had our parent civilizations never minted more than four stacks of coins.
Quote
I can't put my finger on it. Something about this ‼Cat tallow roast‼ tastes funny.
Quote
"This is why artificial intelligences won't be taking over the world within the next ten years or so: NORMAL people don't have to be TOLD not to milk a cow that's on fire!"
Quote
"Preeetty much finished the first pass on religions. This release still requires buildings, migrants and hist fig finalization. None of that should be difficult, though I suspect finalization will throw a bug or two my way. I suppose that will cause me to blow apart.

Ah, desolation!

All fortresses command dark, rough dwarves.
The rugged carp roughly loves the fortress."

Here we have a link to amusing quotes and important advice in the Quote Archive, all of which are more important and/or funny than this one.

I certainly understand where he is coming from (I am getting increasingly annoyed at the carp jokes. Really. Please stop.) but I think he's being unnecessarily bitter. Ridiculously bitter, actually. Criticize the article all you want, but taking shots like that at the creator is completely uncalled for.

MyLittlePonyBuiltMyHotRod, this is your first warning. I would like to direct you to read our forum's FAQ and posting guidelines before posting again. Specifically we don't use swear words here, and your picture of Stalin riding a Year3 Limited Edition Starflower inside a German concentration camp was both upsetting and historically inaccurate.
