I introduced it to my friend recently. Other people have heard about it but don't play. A couple people tried and got lost, oh well. Any other players In Connecticut? Or in New England for that matter?

I'm sure by the time toady gets too old to program, DF will have reached a stage where as it is sentient enough to program itself.
It won't program itself, it'll be too busy taking breaks and attending parties to code.

No dwarves here in Siberia, as far as I notice.

Dwarven blood types are not A, B, AB, O but Ale, Wine, Beer, Rum, Whisky and so forth.
It's not an embark so much as seven dwarves having a simultaneous strange mood and going off to build an artifact fortress that menaces with spikes of awesome and hanging rings of death.

I introduced a few people to it, but only one besides myself is still playing it.

You ever see someone on the street and think "That guy plays DF"? Yeah, me neither. There's no identifiable pattern in the pictures thread, not even neckbeards. But they're everywhere, I can feel it...

I need to spread it around my dorm building subconsciously.

Yes, but your username is androgynous and people don't have time to check every other poster's profile for gender before they choose pronouns. No need to announce it every time.

But it does make her following quote even more awesome (at least in the dirty, squalid minds of the hetero-males and bi-lesbian-curious females):

I was introduced to it by my girlfriend, she was introduced by a friend. These are the only other people I know who play Dwarf Fortress.

I was gonna mention that, heh. I suppose if "girlfriend who plays DF" is awesome, "lesbian couple who play DF" is doubly so. Of course, the whole point of my comment was telling her not to draw needless attention to it, which is exactly what I've been coaxed into doing now. Dammit! >:(

Well I am over 18, so that's no limit, but married is definatly a show stopper. On a side note, why is it when a girl is mentioned, then thread derails (Mostly by myself)? Am I Are we so shallow?

Slightly on the new topic; I talk about Dwarf Fortress constantly, so my girlfriend tried to get into it.  Instead of doing the smart thing and coaxing her gently into it with tutorial worlds, easy embarks and good set offs, I started talking about Giant War Eagles and Forgotten Beasts, while embarking in frozen tundras...  she gave up after a few hours of throwing herself at the interface.

Actually, based on MoM's profile, your age *is* a show-stopper... ;)  Yes, we are that shallow.  At least, on the Internet we are.
