It's funny how that works.  I remember after I abandoned my first real fortress (which had LOOOOOOOOOOOTS of stone) how surprised I was at the speed of a new fort.

It's just so gradual.

As gradual as a glacier, you'll never see it coming.

One of my biggest peeves is coming to an abandoned fort and seeing everything scattered about, the load time between steps is very noticeable on my rig*, thanks to all those scattered items.

Yeah.  I want to make some stuff in Blockedlance for adventure mode...but realistically, this fort would be the LAST place youd want to visit in adventure mode.  It'll take all day just to cross the bridge over the lava moat.  And dont even bother trying to get all the way down stairs.   :-\

Is there any computer that has enough beard for this game?

Can I request an archer named Fawful? And can he be an egomaniac who is fanatical about the queen?

There has been some theoretical work on cloning Chuck Norris's beard and transplanting it on a computer but in all reality you would probably also need Mr. T's and possibly Riker's beard as well.

So it seems I accidentally put my canteen in my wheelbarrow and didn't notice... and then I got really thirsty... so right before going to sleep I go to take a swig from my canteen and... end up snorting a line of low-grade meth.

Psh. You don't even need one hair of Chuck Norris. Even one atom might be too much for the computer to handle.

Personally, I can't wait for doctors to get possessed and start surgically attaching axes to champion soldier's arms.
And neither can I...

Isn't Chuck Norris making a Windows upgrade?

Windows 97- Chuck Edition
Because everyone knows 97 was the best operating system

I can grant this wish...but your current character will be obliterated.  And then Christes will be alone for 10,000 years in an empty white void.

Up to you.

You could re-incarnate the pair of them as the next children to be born in the fort.

But then, life was also easier when I was running around here pretending to be a man, so I guess I should just "man up" and get back to work.

Indeed...

But it'll be decades before these two dwarves actually get involved.  Theyre still just 'friends' in game terms.

Other dwarves might have kids sooner than the Queen...but at the moment they all seem too emotionally traumatized to bring new living beings into their sick sad world.

<complain>

Stupid people with their asinine requests.  Heres my typical potential customer (who never becomes a paying customer)...

"Yeah I want a web page thats like myspace."

"Uhhhh....okaaaay...I'm gonna need a few million dollars to hire a team of developers, and a couple of years to get her done.  But I can do it for ya."

"My budget is $100."

"Oh."

"And I need it by Friday."

"But today is Thursday!"

"Also...I want to get real high on the search rankings.  I need to be the number one social network on google!"

"Well you're only gonna need a couple billion dollars in advertising to do that."

"I can't pay you right now, but that's ok, because I'm going to tell everyone you did my site, and you will get so much business!  You'll be rich!  All because you worked for free!"

"You're a gigantic douchebag."

"Hey I gotta run, I'll be back later to check out the rough drafts you've got for the site.  I want at least three different layouts so that I can choose what I like...but I'm not gonna tell you what I like right now, because I don't really know what I want."

"The door's right over there..."

"Oh and I have other developers working on this too...so if they come up with something I like I'm going to go with them, okay?"

"GET OUT OF HERE!"

If it was not for the Idiots then people would not truly cherish the smart ones. Just remember for every donkeys posterior that you have to put up with is just another person that makes you look better then everyone else.
