@Gwolfski Is my character alive?

Think so, Don't recall him dying.

You did make him a character, right? Would make sense that he didn't die... if he wasn't even there.

Sprin gave me one... I'm now wondering if he killed him and forgot 'cause his pc imploded...

Gwolfski, at least leave part of the fortress intact.  I'm not an expert at retaking forts, nor can I particularly get an adventurer there in a decent amount of time.  Or alive and in one piece.

Truly the system is corrupt if Th4DwArfY1 is getting locked up. I smell a plot...

Good of Ruhn to not like it, though.

The system was always corrupt, its just now someone you dont like is in charge.
Mwhahahahahaha

We're discussing Th4DwArfY1, when has he ever liked it when he wasn't in charge?  Remember all the body swapping weirdness when he danced with Armok himself?  Yeah, he likes to be independent.  Sanity doesn't factor in.

While there is no precedent on withdrawing from your turn, you may do so. We must all remember that this is a succession fortress in the end and was created with the end goal of the players and subsequent followers having fun.

Thanks. Really sorry about the inconvenience.

Don't worry about it. If you think you'll have less fun if you participate then it makes sense to not.

So... does this mean I get the fort next?

After Gwolfski, yes. You'll probably be in charge of reviving us after the near death that will happen during Gwolfski's turn? (If we follow previous Necrothreat turn times)

Great we're all going to die somehow pull up in the nick of time.  Maybe.

Mm-hmm.

Continue to not sell the art. Wait until the investigation has died down. How convenient that the local news will let us know when that has happened!

Make several pressure-plates that trigger on weights of, say, ten grams.
Build some rising-and-lowering platforms with safety switches to prevent them from crushing or trapping anything delicate that is in their path.
Build a food dispenser that can load and release a food roach based upon an external signal with a timer to ignore button-mashing.
Name one of your little darlings "Animal Farm".
Build a terrarium extension that is designed to promote cooperative behaviour.

Woah now. We don't want to teach the scorpions to become independent. They might decide they don't need us any more.

Hmm. Maybe we should visit a patent office first. Lest someone try to steal our invention. How much does a patent application cost?

Two things.  First, the battery is already patented.  We want to be careful about sharing what we know to ensure the secrets aren't stolen. 

Two, unless the average intelligence of a scorpion far surpasses that of humanity, we aren't going to have any trouble teaching them basic things.  Making the skinner box and teach them... What do we want to teach them?

A Skinner box.  Will we be using these anytime soon down this path?

Get to work making another scorpion terrarium, and buy another roach trap.  We want to be ready to feed the critters when the time comes.

YES

A proper net connection will be set up on this damned boat Im on very soon

A boat?  What are you doing?
