On ferry and 3 hours to ynys mon (forgot how to spell it in English, Anglesey or Anglsea? :v:) and then a 5-6 hour car journey, but I can probably start tomorrow if there's no confirmation. [edit] read thread, seems like it's sorted if he doesn't respond anyway.
If you encounter problems I'll have wally switch with you, if he's okay with that.
Also, add me for whenever I am eligible to go again. Also we should have named each dwarf after ourselves and posted journals based on the characters.
Sup. I have lots of free time still. I can take the reins if need be .
I'm here. I'm starting now. hold your horses, and wish me luck.[QUOTE=Dogchow33;37463423]TM Gmod is supposed to be going right now, but he hasn't even started, I kind of knew this would happen after all the DF2012 thread regulars had gone. :smith: we still have Terminutter and Pokey though.

I'm considering using the fort to run a sort of Alternate timeline. Different choices, different outcomes.
If none others come forward, I will take their place. In the likely case this is unfair to those waiting, then I would like to request a spot in the holding que.
An artifact mechanism is always nice, hope I get to set up a fortress self destruct with it.
Put it in the bedroom of the angriest dwarf you can find. It will make things extra challenging to keep him happy so he doesn't go apeshit and flood the fortress with magma.
Doing summer update shortly
[b]Summer Report[/b] The blazing heat of summer approaches, the men are getting sweaty, booze is plentiful but no ice to be found We must get underground soon, if only for the comfort of shade. [B]8th Hematite, 255[/B] [img]http://puu.sh/11IXl[/img] Damn, that foul miasma has claimed a youngling in the sick bay. I think we need to crack down on these unclean conditions... NOW THAT'S QUALITY DWARVEN QUARINTININ' [img]http://puu.sh/11J7h[/img] [B]17th Hematite 255[/B] The mayor seems to have misplaced his goblet, perhaps a kobold nicked it ? Either way he's not taken it well... [img]http://puu.sh/11JkA[/img] he's insisted he's going to check every crate until the goblet is found.... but our finest craftsdwarfs make hundreds of goblets of finest craftdwarfship like his every year... I give him a month before he gives up and "finds" one in those crates... [B]5th Malachite, 255[/B] Haha, in a stroke of irony, digging out the luxury apartments led to striking Zircon! [img]http://puu.sh/11Jv5[/img] Also, some migrants have arrived... I hope they arent peasants... lets see... a spinner, a bone doctor, a clerk, a suturer,a wax worker a hunter, a tanner , a gem cutter, a trader and a crafts dwarf. Some rich blood at least... [B]7th Malachite, 255[/B] Curses! the infections are spreading... [img]http://puu.sh/11JCL[/img] [B]17th Malachite , 255[/B] Lock in the sick... Save the many! [img]http://puu.sh/11JMU[/img] [B]2nd Galena, 255[/B] [img]http://puu.sh/11K2Z[/img] Ol' Sigun has been carrying around his crossbow everywhere, his wife even said he brought it to bed last night... That old boy ain't right... [B]28th Galena, 255[/B] The sick surgeon died finally, we opened his 'tomb' and quickly carried him to the burial area while holding our noses. Hopefully the others wont take much longer to suffer and perish... [img]http://puu.sh/11Kwv[/img] [B]1st LimeStone. 255. Autumn has come.[/B]
Uhhh, I think that the miasma is coming from decomposing parts, not a sickness.
Find lava, dump the bodies in a pit and flood them with lava. Make memorial slabs. We can start like, a weird dwarf cult that involves burning all bodies. Also, make sure the underground fortress is spacious and well designed. This is our only chance to make it epic unless we decide to move even deeper one day. Also, I liked the walling in people idea.
I can write a text to support our new culture.
YES! I knew my dorfy thinking would catch on ;D
Prepare slabs so you don't have angry spirits roaming around
You guys are doing well, keep up the good work :dance: Edit: Oh and put me at the end of the list.
I asked to be put on a few posts up, I doubt the original poster is actually adding new players in.

[QUOTE=Tron359;37539024]I asked to be put on a few posts up, I doubt the original poster is actually adding new players in.[/QUOTE] Oh, sorry about that- I'll put you in right now.
There's always open slots :buddy:
I sit corrected, bravo. Maybe the fort won't have upwards 200 players this time around, FPS death sucks.
[QUOTE=Tron359;37563810]I sit corrected, bravo. Maybe the fort won't have upwards 200 players this time around, FPS death sucks.[/QUOTE] Don't worry , My dorfy approach to medicine should keep that pop cap steady
They're all gonna die
Time for barber-surgeons. Let out the bad blood, and bring out yer dead!
[B]Autumn Report[/B] The tail end of the year begins and my feet are getting tired of trudging up and down hundreds of floors to check in on both major areas of the fortress. I'm going to ignore construction until they smooth all the stone. [B]1st Limestone, 255[/B] Thob started working on something in the leather works, doesn't look like normal armor or a saddle or anything... I'll keep an eye on him. [B]7th Limestone , 255[/B] [img]http://puu.sh/12Nhq[/img] Thob ran out screaming "IT IS COMPLEEEEETE!" and skipped off to the dining room carrying half a dog on his shoulder with arrows stuck in it, upon closer inspection it wasnt a fresh kill but in fact tanned and prepared. Still disturbing to me... [B]16th Limestone, 255[/B] 3 more dead in the quarantine, 1 infected left. We're going to put the bodies in the refuse pile and figure out a way to burn them later. If I dont get to do it this term, I urge my successor to burn ALL the bodies. [img]http://puu.sh/12Nmu[/img] [B]19th Limestone, 255[/B] The bodies arent being dealt with quickly enough! The deathly pall spreads it's dark odour! [img]http://puu.sh/12Nok[/img] [B]26th Limestone, 255[/B] A burial pit has been dug for the dead, all rotting corpses shall sit out here until we find a way to burn the dead. [img]http://puu.sh/12Nt6[/img] Hopefully the last few dead wont be too hard to dispose of and we can forget about them until a fire can be started. [B]4th Sandstone, 255[/B] More migrants, they gave an odd look at us as they walked past the corpses rotting in the ditch outside... [img]http://puu.sh/12NwH[/img] One was a doctor. very useful for our... unique problem. [B]24th Sandstone, 255[/B] [img]http://puu.sh/12NEd[/img] Cog really loves his mace... -ugh- I'm not authorising any marriages to inanimate objects! [B]15 Timber, 255[/B] The outpost liason arrived as a thief also stalks in the fortress... Cog has become a macedwarf and taken... ugh... "Kinoram" the mace with him to bash that kobold's face in... [B]22nd Timber, 255[/B] [img]http://puu.sh/12NOB[/img] Amazing! Despite the plague we are asked to become part of the realm. I'm opting in to this . I recommended the mayor to become a baron. I hope I don't live to regret this. or at least pass the problem onto my successors. [B]26th Timber, 255[/B] [img]http://puu.sh/12NRP[/img] [img]http://puu.sh/12NSp[/img] [img]http://puu.sh/12NSB[/img] [img]http://puu.sh/12NT0[/img] Engravings in the luxury dwarfpartments, really liking this area, my successor shall make excellent homes here for our wealthiest elites. [B]1st Moonstone, 255[/B] [img]http://puu.sh/12NTD[/img] Winter is here, 1 more dead, a child. We prepare for a harsh winter. [B]END OF AUTUMN REPORT[/B]
Good thing i built that noble pit, if he introduces any pesky mandates just give him a burrow on top of the trap door and pull the lever
Work, schoolwork, and life have created busyness. Please take me off the list.
[QUOTE=Chezhead;37585114]Work, schoolwork, and life have created busyness. Please take me off the list.[/QUOTE] Done. [editline]7th September 2012[/editline] TM Gmod's about to hit his limit, but he's only got one more so I'll just let him finish whenever(in a reasonable timeframe of course)
