I embarked on a glacier and there wasn't enough wood to make the spears for the danger room, so I got to skip that part. We build freeze traps instead.

I've introduced a few people to it but AFAIK only three play and they irregularly. I don't know anyone who plays who found it otherwise. I was telling stories about my current fort to a few of the nephews at a family function two weeks ago when my niece's bf asked if I had ever played MineCraft. I PULLED THE LEVI told him it wasn't for me.

Count me in on the New England contingent.

That is a wasteful idea that recklessly endangers life. I applaud your genius!
There are as many ways to play the game as there are socks on a battlefield.

My best-friend introduced me, then he started playing WoW pretty hardcore a bit over a year ago or more and that's been his game. He doesn't play anything other than WoW as far as I know.

I've tried introducing friends or family, but no one is willing to attempt it. They're rather depressing and don't know why I consider majority of them as my friends.

I mod games and educate others how to do so as well, if you'd like to learn join my Discord and you can join a bunch of like minded individuals. (Presently modding Space Engineers and No Man's Sky.)

Looking into modding DF? This forum guide & wiki guide may still be a good start!

Has anyone ever made a poll thread just about location? I'm up to 3 known DF players in my state so far, but I can smell more. Somewhere.

Oh god I hope not...
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?
I was more annoyed than anything, really.

Think of it like Sim City, except with rival mayors that seek to destroy your citizens by arming legions of homeless people and sending them to attack you.
