In Protector IV, the default name of your character is Urist Mchero :p
You sure about that? It seems to be "Guest"...

Hmm..I'm playing it on Kongregate's site, and every time a start a game it's Urist Mchero

Bay 12 games' name comes from the alien series.

It was confirmed by Toady himself. The post is somewhere.

That's just Toady trying to cover up the fact that in the future, when DF is basicaly skynet and has time travel, through annoying time paradoxes alien realy is refering to DF.

Sometime ago I saw some Cartoon Network thing on youtube. I had to do with dwarves and elves and fighting a war over some cookie recipe. In the end, it "tasted like my cat."

It's debatable, but still plausable.

Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy. That episode was... particularly strange, even for them.

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.

I started fiddling with making music for the Sega Genesis. The program i use for playing my tracker modules off of the Sega hardware looks like this when its executing:


Thats a carp? And thats DF in capital letters?? The coder who made the program simply calls himself Michael Stamper, so i doubt the DF stands for his nick or whatever. To me this screams DF reference, but i dont know, what do you guys think?

It seems highly unlikely, but I can't think of any other explanation. If it is a DF reference, it's a pretty terrible one. You don't make reference to something by just randomly throwing its name in with no context.
