Interesting DF dream
« on: July 21, 2009, 05:01:44 pm »
Ok, so i had a blatantly DF based dream the other day. It went like this:
I had my fortress all dug out and built already, for some reason it had uncovered magma channels running through parts of it. Then i built this free-floating machine which was basically a huge vat of magma with a nozzle on the bottom. I had the machine floated over the place where my magma channels originated and dumped extra magma on top of it, so it overflowed. Then a tiny dwarf (about a third the size of a regular dwarf) wearing a cool metal/fire imp leather diving suit thing shows up in a tiny metal speedboat thing and kinda pulls the overflowing magma in a particular direction while riding on top of it. So the little mini-dwarf and the magma make a beeline towards a particular dwarf. The best part? The target dwarf is purple.

I had a dream about DF noble removal. Wow.

I agree with Urist. Steampunk is like Darth Vader winning Holland's Next Top Model. It would be awesome but not something I'd like in this game.

Unfortunately dying involves the amputation of the entire body from the dwarf.

On a related topic, has anyone else after a particularly long DF binge actually dreamed in ASCII format?  I know I've had at least one such dream.

That's the funny thing, i haven't playing in weeks. But the most recent time i played was after a long hiatus cuz my comp died, so that might have something to do with it. It tends to happen like that with me, i won't dream about stuff until a while after experiencing it.
