Why does this page exist? --Quietust (talk) 19:37, 19 December 2013 (UTC)
- Eh, why not? It is an interesting quirk, and it should probably be on the wiki somewhere. Why not here?--Loci (talk) 20:17, 19 December 2013 (UTC)
- Because it isn't something that's actually part of the game, just something that players have decided to do. If we're going to have an article for this, then we would also have to have an article on making fortresses underwater, in the magma sea, and in Hell, and that's a bit of a slippery slope that can lead to quite a bit of clutter. --Quietust (talk) 21:27, 19 December 2013 (UTC)
