I've read that the arrow tattoos are a cultural phenomenon that denote a person who has attained mastery of Airbending. Edit: Not a bad sketch TrueNeutral.

Smoking a nuisance?
I doubt it. They'd just find something else to be sandy **** about.

Hi5. I'm looking forward to them finishing the season. I caught the last two episode premiere just flipping around and then it wasn't even ****ing on anymore. Not the best way to introduce myself to the series. Did you know that the guy who voices Uncle Iroh in the English version died recently?

Who Wants to be a Superhero
All of my predictions are wrong. I'll admit it, I got a little teary eyed at the end of that episode. :'(

Looks like we need another mod
Hmm. Alanshu's platform coincides a bit too well with my own. I think I need to see if my speech writers have been moonlighting.

The Dwarf Fortress Thread
They'll get pissy, yeah, but national warfare isn't coded properly yet. :D Besides, as soon as I can I move all of my operations inside and shut the doors behind me. If they're cause too much ruckus the namby pamby humans can just camp outside with the zombie elephants* until they learn to behave! (Toady One didn't expect people to channel the river outside into the mountain, so he hadn't coded hazards for it. That's being worked on though.) *Zombie Elephants are not available in some areas

The Dwarf Fortress Thread
Yeah, that's a bridge over my channel. My miner decided to climb out of the filling channel on the wrong side, so I built a bridge to rescue her. I suppose I should be glad she didn't try swimming up the channel and drown. The mountain river is a random distance from the mountain face. Sometimes I hit it a single screen's worth of digging, somtimes it's three or four. When you hit it there's a very good chance the water will rush out and flood your fortress, so I'd recommend just making a single dwarf dig east until you hit it. Crocodiles, frogmen, and the like can invade your fortress from the river, so you'll need to harden the areas that access the mountain river. Immigrants are a nuisance! The number of immigrants is tied to how large and how swanky your fortress is. The dwarven traders that drop by carry back tales of your success. To prevent this, I hook my trade depot to my irrigation system and drown the traders after they finish unloading their wares. Dead dwarves tell no tales. EDIT: God, they wish I would merely seize their goods.

The Dwarf Fortress Thread
Pap?! There's a suble beauty! It's nuanced!! Well, it's not for everybody. (Those dwarves are actually represented by little smilie faces. -> ) Floodgates are kinda hard. I usually build a channel from the river outside and place a floodgate just inside the mountain. .;.;.;.;.;.;.;.## ~~~~~~~X.; ;.;.;.;.;.;.;.;## For this set up you'll need three mechanisms. One to construct the lever, and two to hook up the lever to the flood gate. Press the q key and select the lever you've built, and follow the menu to hook up the floodgate. Here's what I did so far in my latest fortress. Mountain river farming is more complex. From what I can tell you'll need twice as many of all the components. I don't use the mountain river to farm, but from what I understand you need to place the floodgates next to eachother XX beside the river, and hook each of them to levers. It seemed like a pain, and it takes quite a while to get to set up, so I've always opted for the method I've shown.

Is this the Steve Buscemi appreciation thread? Cause that guy's good. The last movie I saw with him was The Island.

Polymer 'muscles' add colour to visual displays
Heh, I was reading up on synthetic muscle polymers a few years ago. I didn't expect them to take this turn though. ^_^

Pictures of your Games: Revolutions
Oh, it is. It is. There's an Adventure mode too, for your regular roguelike gameplay. The adventure mode is quite expansie itself, but I've had so much fun in fortress mode that I haven't touched it yet. You're welcome for the link. Have fun.
