Yes!

No!

I am small and neutral, like Switzerland

[Bogwedgle]

I'll likely take a turn today or tomorrow, prepare yourselves

[Scruffy]

Turn? Turn! Turn..

I'll likely take a turn today or tomorrow, prepare yourselves

Sorry bud. I'll be done in a few hours. Otherwise feel free to start a turn and ignore mine.

I suppose that I'll take a turn now

Been drinking in a bar until a few hours ago (a cheap beer, two bottles of sandels iv beer, ginger joe, a shot of gin) and I still have a bottle of Gambina (gin+vermuth but in almost every way exactly unlike martini. Everyone seems to hate it but I kind of like the bitter taste. Hangover in a bottle) and a bottle Graham's LBV 2009 (rather good as far as port LBVs go. A bit too sweet for my taste though)

Poured another glass and half of he gambina is gone now. Aww
I'll drink it quick and then start. I don't have as much time as usual since I have to get up relatively early tomorrow (to enjoy my hangover)

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

02:20 starting

Hmm, news about beer sixpacks accidentally containing pepsi cans containing beer. Interesting

Prepare your angus
(took me 15mins to remember how to do name links..)
Started using 42.06 (just out of spite because I'm mean. Or not) so no dorf therapist or dfhack at the moment
Gotta have those new engravings and statues

The fort looks surprisingly.. normal
Will have to roof that courtyard and do something interesting with those frozen murky pools. Not sure what but I'm sure that the idea will come up when the time comes.

Bog, if you want to start a turn feel free to do so and just ignore this

Chopping more trees, cutting mroe plants. Farming enough onions to feed the sorry sods. Atleast we have proper farms this time around. Thanks previous overseer who'se name I don't remember since it was over a week ago. Shork?
4/21 working age dorfs are miners? I like that ratio, though it could be higher. Nicely done Shorks. Better than those 50+ dorf forts with 2 miners.
Took me a LONG while to go through all the jobs without the rapist.

a new woodcutter, redefined crafters, farmers and other idiots. Randome_dragon is now a fulltime farmer. Sorry
Dorfing dorfs. Sorry but it is just in the name order so pretty random. You will most likely be an insignificant hauler or fish cleaner
Sobering too much while doing this. Must drink more. Chugged the glass and ppouered another


Ordered more bedrooms to be built since that seems to be what those rooms were ment for.
 Also ordered a hospital morque to be built. Mostly morque I think


Is that WOOODEN furniture in our surprisingly well furnished (good job Shork) dining room?
I suppose it is good. Butchered trees and all
The dininghall is now a part of our taver, the Sanctuary of Vomit


Poured a glass. Now I'm out of gambina.Will be a kind of shame to drink LBV when drunk. Good that it's only LBV, nto vintage

Stopped digging that huge area in clay. Sorry Shork but I need the miners.


Built a new lever to replace the maingate one. Maingate, A1 in notes. Nice and orderly codes..
Hmm...
A river. That means water. Water means potential fun
Well, anti!!FUN!! but fun nontheless

We need a ciquer, CISTERN i mean. Firgit the word for w moment.
Then perhaps accidental flooding byt that is a matter for later
Building that under the diningroom


ELVES!
TWO OF THEM!
TWO!

Dead elves

A table in the middle of the meeting area to designate it as our main place of worship. WWe worship his divie shadow
why so MANY repeated orders instead of just repeated orders [smelt native gold ore R] instead of 10x smelt native gold?
ah, manager?  It is strange. After nearly a decade of DF I have still not gotten used to using a manager instead of micromanaging everything

Ruhn gave birth. Hurrah. Also a few dogs got puppies and a rabbit made doe rabbits.

Reogranized food/boozeproduction

Slate:
Migrants! More boozeworkers and carpenters for the walls
Also miners. ALWAYS MIUNERS!

Continued building the roof, which is not THE TOWER PROJECT! whicl will nto last further than this turn
Also some separate space for cookking/boozing


Well, the bottle's gone. Time for some LBV
Music: some of Simon Swerwer's dorffort music. Gotta love music with DF dorf language wording. Kind of dorfier version of singing in klingon.
Simon Swerwer - Danger Room  is always something ´nice to listen to. Oh well, not always but atleast lately. DF dorfish is the new klingon

Urist McTaupe has created a dorfwork gold high boot! Hurrah! Our first articact! It is just a gold high boot. Just a glorified high boot. NOTHING special about it
Here: This is a gold high boot! ALL masterdorfship is of the dorfiest quality! this object menaces with spikes of GOLD!

Urist McNaryar is finally digging our lovely waterhole
WATER! FLOOD! LOST FORTUNES! DESTROUCTION AND WATER! LIFE!

wha? was that just a dorf that got washed away with the flow? huh?
ah. It's just a river. Nothing wrong with a few drowned forgfs

Here comes the tide

I have a bad feeling about something foing wrong

Oh wait...
DAMNT IT ALL!
Well, not my problöem anymore
Well, I', giving rooms for the sanfuary of vomuit as a requirsition so it's ok

slow building

Feeö öole sleeping. Sorry


Endds here. Sorry

[Random_Dragon]

Yesss. Let the dorfening commence.

[Bogwedgle]

Bog, if you want to start a turn feel free to do so and just ignore this

nah, if you're taking one now I'll do one tomorrow, it's a bit late for me now anyway.

[Bogwedgle]

Damned fine turn there scruffy.

Also I will forever be amazed by the subculture that has sprung up around Dwarf Fortress, great legends and heroes, songs in dorfish, 14 million in jokes. I bet we all look insane from the outside.

Edit, I've written Shoruke a poem to explain his accident.

Shoruke Avuz Ulol Kastar

[Shoruke]

You can't expect a lazy fuck like me to go over each word of that individually, do you? I ran it through a translator and...

shoruke MINE LAST kastar
FALL ROCK STRIKE shoruke ser nekik-lam FLOOR shoruke zust shoruke BLOODY shàmman-oth shoruke durad shoruke BRAIN arôl-salul-sut shoruke im-shadmal


so basically, rocks fall blood ouch Shoruke Shoruke Shoruke

That would explain why the translator couldn't make it intelligible for me 

[Scruffy]

Oh wait, it was just braindamage, not stupid rockinduced death. Nevermind then.

[Random_Dragon]

Svabol wer uoinota? o3o

[onciblu]

so, I only need to be drunk to do a turn? No previous permission? I will probably make a turn tomorrow

[Scruffy]

Once you are drunk enough not to care whether you have a permission or not you are most likely in a proper condition for taking a turn.

First drunk, first served

[Shoruke]

I considered taking a turn today, but I'm meeting up with a classmate to do homework tomorrow morning.
On a Saturday.
During holidays.

The thing that makes me need a drink, precludes me from having one. Argh.

This, so much this.

It's customary to make sure nobody else is actively taking a turn, but even that has been ignored in the past. Really the only downside is then somebodies turn doesn't go into the official history.
That said, we've killed... three? four? worlds so far, so the history gets wiped anyway.

Bottom line: If you're drunk, it's your turn.
