I was just playing along as usual this evening, when I came across an interesting message:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

So, I'm guessing he got some soap (which I have yet to make) and cleaned himself, and then kidnapped himself?  Of course, who exactly this happened to, I have no idea, given the fact that no dwarf is mentioned.  All children are accounted for in the meeting hall, so I'm just hoping the incident doesn't repeat.

Edit: Found the problem.  Some goblin snatcher stumbled on a stone fall trap, but didn't pass out or die, so he decided he needed to wash his own blood off rather than kidnap my children.  Very posh chap, this goblin.

He's no kobold, that's for sure.

That's a pretty odd bug.  I didn't even know the game was capable of making such announcements to the player regarding undiscovered units of another civilization.  I would expect ____ _____, goblin snatcher, cancels kidnap, or something like that even if that did occur.

Weird.  Debug text, maybe?

I think it's cute that your chef is named Cookie.

You know, it's funny, but I almost always name my chef "Cookie" too.

You.. too? Hahaha. It's either that, or I give them the profession 'Chef' if they're my brewer/cheese maker/cook. I tend to have good luck making one guy do all three jobs, and end up sitting on piles of 300+ food and 300+ drink.


Back on topic, this does seem like some debug text, how it doesn't give full information.

Yeah, OVERWROTE JOB means something went wrong.  This particular one's already in the tracker: http://www.bay12games.com/dwarves/mantisbt/view.php?id=393
