All my nobles survived, and it happened with water, not magma. And I haven't even had the chance to create some kind of Prisoner killer. In the realm of failing it was pretty unspectacular on the Fun scale.

However, you do inspire me to make the best out of this ein! If I can dig a tunnel from the giant Trade Depot highway to the Magma pipe I can really end things with a bang.

I've been trying to create a fort that exists at the second to bottom Z-Level of a map, and it's been going poorly. Managed to dig all the way down there, create the ~all~ the rooms, including crap like noble rooms and stuff, made channels for magma and water. I just wanted to create a way for the water to flow, so I could power some waterwheels for various pumps.  So I smooth and fortify one of the walls at the side of the map...

 Only to be met with a torrent of water flowing through it. I managed to wall up before the whole bottom fort was flooded, but lost my dining room, all my workshops except for the Kennels and Magma powered stuff, and all of my residential housing. (The nobles places are fine, which only serves to piss me off more.) Several Dwarves are starving in rooms that are blocked on all sides by water, but hopefully I can tunnel above or below and get them out.

Also the deaths look like they've started the beginnings of a tantrum spiral. :/

If you apply it to a top hat you can really make it gleam. Even better, it'll make you insane given enough time.

Thus the term "Mad as a Hatter" draws its inspiration from.

I love bugs. Especially spiders and Dirt Dobbers. I'd spend hours watching them crawl and fly around my room, make nests and webs. It's pretty cool.

Ants where a different matter entirely though. I was a vengeful Zeus to them, a Magnifying Glass my Cyclopes, and the light it shaped my bolts of lightning.

Man I wish I had a magnifying glass on me now.

I submit to you that I could set myself up to have a near death experience, then have myself to regularly attend church using the fear of death and the comfort of conformity as a catalyst into changing my belief to Christianity.

In as such, I would have voluntarily  (Although in a roundabout way) changed my beliefs via my own conscious choices.

I live in Texas, East Texas to be precise, so its more or less just Woodlands and Plains, with the occasional Peach Orchard. The last snow we got came at the price of having everything shut down for a couple of days. But, it was fun making a snowball.

I've been scared as hell I've been growing bored of Dwarf Fortress, but I started a new fortress, and I think it was just that the old site I was building on was too bland.

Started reading the Dark Tower series, which has me bubbling and giddy, since I haven't had much time to read otherwise.

I just assumed it had reached the maximum number of posts or something.

But of course Jackrabbit, why, I found that TvTropes page made me very happy today.

If it had anything to do with any previous discussions, it most certainly was a coincidence.

So, in 2000, we expect nukes to start to fire off at random because the military is lazy with updating Nuke Targeting software (Or something).

In 06/06/06 we decide Satan is going to head on up to earth because calendars are actually complex demon summoning tools in disguise.

And now, at the end of 2012 we expect the world to just up and die.

It's like every 6 1/2 years we get lazier and lazier with our Apocalyptic prophesies.
