This thread gave me an idea, I will have 5 dwarfs placed in 3x3 cells, with one bed, 1 well, 1 1x1 farm tile, 1 Stockpile, and a dining room setup. 2 doors on either side, 1 leading to magma, the other leading out of the room to another isolated 4x4 room containing a workshop and a staircase leading down to a storage for a particular material. That room would also have a doorway, allowing the dwarves to transfer their completed goods to a stockpile.

Their cells would be placed inside of a pit and their rooms covered with Glass ceilings or something of the sort, with only 1 natural cave tile above the farm allowing the growing of underground crops. Above the cells will be 2 levers 1 that releases magma, and one that sends them to their workshop.

The whole operation will be overseen by the other 2 dwarves most likely my miners. If work is unsatisfactory, they will pour magma on the particular dwarf. If work is good they will be rewarded with booze and a meal different from what they grow. When migrants arrive the already prepared room for their demise will be opened and the foolish dwarves head straight for the meeting area inside to be burned alive.

Or if I'm feeling nice they will be added to the list of occupied cells and turn out goods. Also they may be added to the military and protect the slavery operation. But the most unfortunate of my niceness will build something only to die later.

Hmmm, maybe I should start another poll on whether Olin is convinced their camels or that they are horses, and always shall be.

On the Topic of Olin is everyone agreed on the green clothed dwarf to be he?

Comedy by committee will never work. 

Use this as a sounding board for your ideas, or a source/inspiration of them, but you have to go with what seems will work for you. 

Hmmm, you are right, after all if I get everything VIA committee, few will find it funny because the majority will know whats coming. =|

Olin should be the only one who knows that they're horses, and gets really mad when the others call them different things.

He should be utterly convinced they are camels.

If its a true Oregon Trail parody, one must be named Alice. And die of diarrhea.

I decided against doing a true parody, now the only thing it has in common from my whim is the name, as for other peoples whims I can't decide them can I?  So it may very well have a random burst of Oregon Trail parody, in which snow will be rubbed on many a things in order to cure the ailing dwarf.

Well then I'll add the river fording to the next list for suggestions.

Just to help people decide and comment and suggest, I have made an engraving of some of the materials I have to work with, yes I have magma.

Also which dwarf should be Olin?

damn I misspelled biscuit =|
