I call it:
Make your own Moria
How well did my intuition work. I thought, "Man it'd be nice if a goblin ambush walked on one of my traps now" and a few seconds after that *pop* a goblin corpse appears on my traps.

Goblin wrestlers! Good fodder.

They killed a fish cleaner :saddowns:
My fisher once killed two goblins. Still don't know how he managed to do it.

He was armed with a carp in his hand.
I am begining to think that dwarves need to be with other dwarves to prevent them from getting the 'doesnt realy care about anything anymore' tag. I know it is not due to booze deprvation with tihs dwarf as the aflicted dwarf has almost never been without a barrel of dwarven ale or rum!
I think he avoids his bedroom because I had him engrave the walls with pictures the local elephants ... Doing what elephants do best!
[QUOTE=johnlukeg;20579422]Also, on an unrelated note, why don't people smile when taking photos any more?[/QUOTE]
I do
Well, sorta.
People just think they're too fucking cool and badass to smile or look at the camera.
Perhaps they have forgotten how to smile, because it has been so long since they did.

It happens after they have killed too much, all soldiers get it eventually. If I remember correctly it means they don't get sad as easily anymore, it's a good trait.
[editline]12:37PM[/editline]
Yeah, checked the forums:
[quote]It means they're less effected by having their friends/pets killed. (Doesn't really care... may eliminate the unhappyness all together, not sure.)
Usually happens to soldiers first as they're the most sociable if they are off duty for a good while (so get more friends) and are first up to die in fights, so have more friends with an increased chance of them dying.[/quote]
[quote]When a dwarf kills enough creatures/sees enough creatures get killed, he gets desensitived to death. It usually happens with butchers or soldiers. It's nice, especially in the military, since they're always one big family and they all start tantruming as soon as a single soldier dies.[/quote]
Why won't my hunters hunt? They have crossbows, quivers, bolts, even armor, and there are wild animals on the map, but they won't hunt any of them.
Also, my fishers won't fish. Could all of the fish on the map possibly be gone? That seems impossible.

Yes, fish can go extinct. But then you get the message for it. If they don't fish at all something else is wrong.
Do you have the orders so that dwarves can go outside? in the "o" menu.
Are the labours set?
Yes.
I've seen messages like "there is nothing to catch in the eastern swamps" but I figured that was just temporary. When that message comes up, does that mean the fish in that area are all dead forever?

Also, when is the dwarven caravan supposed to come by? Isn't it always in autumn? I think they skipped over me this year. Spring arrived, and I realized I never heard from my friends in the mountainhomes.

Time to kill another dwarf sims-style. I keep getting glassmakers, and they keep getting into strange moods. It's such a waste.
Every time I'm at my pc and read this thread, my cursor wanders to my DF folder. Temped to create a new world, but I won't!
Oh my dear new version...
uh... My administrator is stuck trying to attend a meeting. I have no idea why. He's not the least bit unhappy. I don't know who he's trying to attend a meeting with either. I've tried drafting him and undrafting him to the military, because the wiki says that solves the problem, but he goes right back to trying to attend a meeting. It's preventing me from trading with any merchants.

Got an office for the noble? Not sure if it helps but anyways. Try waiting to see if he attends it.
And can't you use someone else for trading?
All the nobles have offices. They have magnificent offices.
If I use someone else for trading, I won't be able to see the value of the items.

Try trading with someone else anyways, I think you can see the values even with them if you have the required dwarf in your fortress.

My last artifact was a toy boat. It was menacing with spikes.

Are you kidding?
Spikeiness is the dwarven measures of quality.
The more you have the better it is.
Bonus points if you makes spikes out of things not normally used for spikes.
Like mercury.

Also, how cool would snow with depth be? If you lived in a temperate area, during the winter when it rained, it would be snow, and it would slowly build up, until the point where you have to mine it out :v:

That would be incredible. I can see it now...

Until they melt, and all of the dwarves in the fort get crushed by falling snow or fall to their deaths
Sounds like fun :v:
