DF Suggestions / Re: Dwarven drills and elavators.

Right answer, wrong question. How would you power a moving drill, or how would an immobile drill be more useful than a dwarf with a pickaxe?

Why is my night day for so many of you?

If we work together to destroy it, we will have rendered the universe wrong. Also: Misko, you aren't the boss I was referring to. There are many.
Just kill the lichette, would you, and let me do my job, for f*ck's sake? (IC)
Is your job destroying the universe? If so, not a chance in all nine hells.

Well this is the game ender, so we might not be able to ressurrect if he kills us, or he could just kill us all in one attack. Please Misko, if I can bring your wife back will you let go of your grudge? The only thing you will achieve if you keep attacking him is what Xantalos wants!
Well, I still want my empure to rule the Universe forever. So theres that. It take a while, but I;m immortal, so. Under my leadership, we've already started consolidation of the Milky Way.
So? The universe will still take your empire with it if destroyed.

Hey Misko. Dirg's creating an exact copy of your wife; this is not the same woman, and the act is thus morally wrong and defiles your beloved's memory. What are you going to do about it?
Hey Xantalos. Time's creating an exact copy of you; this is not the same abomination, and thus it is morally wrong to keep doing someone else's goals. When those goals are destroying the universe, at least.

Hey Misko. Dirg's creating an exact copy of your wife; this is not the same woman, and the act is thus morally wrong and defiles your beloved's memory. What are you going to do about it?
Remember, Misko? The only reason you turned to such extreme measures was because the lichette killed your wife and half of reality and Dirg is now pissing on her memory.
...
Misko is steadily ignoring the conversation.
Very wise. His logic is horribly flawed.

IS COPY
IS FAKE
TECHNICALLY IF YOU DO THIS YOU HAVE TO KILL THE LICHETTE AND LET ME CREATE A HER WITHOUT POWERS
DIRG
WRONG.
If you replace her with a copy, the copy will be fake but the one you take back will be real.

IS COPY
IS FAKE
TECHNICALLY IF YOU DO THIS YOU HAVE TO KILL THE LICHETTE AND LET ME CREATE A HER WITHOUT POWERS
DIRG

Wake up and read. They're discussing the real one now.
The plans ... eeh. Dirg's logic particularly irks me.
In short, your son existed after your wife was wiped from reality/killed by lich, therefor either you have another wife, she still exists in the future before she was killed, or he's adopted. What I was proposing was a Chrono Trigger like thing where we swap her out with a dummy, or just leave the spot empty and bring her back to safety.
This bit makes no sense. At all. Just because the mom is dead does not mean the son cannot live on.
It does if she was, instead, wiped from reality. Same with misko's memories. You know what this means? She can still be saved, if misko does something other than moping and futiley trying to avenge her!

So you wanna do a little time travel and save your actual wife or not?
The point is moot. Do YOU want to help battle the Brown men, or are we all going to die? Not like you were going to change the outcome, but still.
Option III: Don't piss him off! He said he may need to kill us all, which means we still have a chance!

If you'll just let me destroy the universe I'll help you.
I'll manage without your help. I'm guessing you're part of why he's prepared to destroy a whole sector of space.

Not all bosses are defeated just through combat. Some you just have to sheathe your weapon and walk away.
BUT THAT IS LAME!
If you want to be a halfway decent emperor, there are many dull solutions which work quite well that you'll need to do. Often.

Just to clarify, will any of you assist me in destroying the universe so I can help you against the man IN brown?
*raises hand*
What's wrong with you?!?! How can you rule a destroyed universe?

No, Xan. You can't destroy the universe. Misko's empire is there.
-dafuq-
I genuinely have no clue what is being written here.
I'm interested in how he wrote it. It's like a Missingno of text!

So we can waste actions doing something that didn't succeed on a six... Or we can just write Xan off as dead and fight the MIB
Or you could help me and then I could assist you.
You failed...not on a 6, but a 6+2. 6+3 ain't gonna be better...

Cassandra knows what she's talking about.
You do realize I nearly saved us, right? If the goddamn lichette hadn't interupted me, the universe would've been destroyed and the MIB, who was SENT BY THE UNIVERSE, would have been destroyed. Thanks, lichette, it's not like any of us are on a schedule or anything.
But we would have all been destroyed... and if you don't attack him, I think I can convince him to not destroy us. Or at least to give us a chance to reform.

That has about as much logic as shooting yourself in the head because someone drew a knife from across the room.
I'm going to sit and blow hot air until the universe is destroyed, flailing uselessly.
Fixed that for you.
Fixed it for you--Xantalos isn't the quiet type.

But why is destroying everything ever bad? Explain to me this and stop with the ad homenim; you're starting to reek.
It destroys every good thing, every success, and misko's empire. Even your own successes. Even the success of destroying a universe.
And you failed on a 6. If anything would have destroyed the universe, that would have.

WHAT THE FUCKING FUCK IS GOING ON HERE~
Excessive ad homenim by everyone on me for no reason, derp, Misko got possessed by an SCP, and Dirg almost committed a moral crime that even HE finds repulsive. Want to help me destroy the universe so I can do other things?
It's not ad hominem if we're arguing based on your stated motives!

I am tempted to kill Misko.
Go ahead. He obviously missed your resignation form.

My fort is 25 years old. My grizzly bear poplation still hasn't reached it's full size, since I bought the first couple in year 4, but I've got about 50 war grizzlies penned in strategic locations already. They do indeed take longer to grow up, but they also have a longer lifespan than dogs.
Is this in the current version? I've checked upwards of 80 Dwarven Civs in over 10 worlds and they never NEVER have any non basic animals any more. The amount and variety of animals in caravans has been worse too...
You can catch your own bears...

Corai must die. Greatwyrm is invited to kill him. I will do so. He will be banished.
I was already banished I think.
You won El Elecciōn Presidenteāl, though. They'd have banished you earlier, but can't now of you use your Podrėas Presidenteāles!

MISTAKEN pedophile.
...Right, Corai?

She is RUDE. I mean seriously. No manners.
...Says the pot to the kettle...

Apologize for distraction this turn, but still keep a module recording conversation and reply when asked questions.
Have Corai test an Aperture Thaummatology Amulet of Planeshifting. It's an amulet that transports people across the planes of existence.

Happy, misko?
Hey, hey, hey, I am not rude when speaking to another leader. You guys are my inferiors. You do not deserve politeness.

No. If I were happy he'd be te control test for flame-proof clothes.
I'm a leader and you're rude to me.
I'm not currently testing fire-proof clothes. I had no plans to do so. Would you like me to make fire-proof clothes?

Seriously, though, just lock up and flood the surface with magma, let it drain, and send out dwarves to fight the zombies. Once the necromancer's dead they come down easily.
If you can flood the surface with magma then you honestly don't have to worry about much in the first place.

You know, doomsday weapon and all that...
Why does everyone suggest adding magma to the zombies? All it does is turn them into flaming zombies, and not the kind that throw pride parades either.
Why is that a problem?

GreatWyrmSteel's locally-famous "Speech of the Sun"

"Ladies and gentlemen--and the High Herbalist counts as neither, shame be upon you--our wise leader is bedridden, possibly for life. Do you know what we must do? Simple. We must make it like he was never harmed.
"We need a trapper catching birds--a carpenter with cages--snares for larger birds and animals--a new room, surrounded by pillars holding up a canopy of leaves and a fair meadow--tame deer grazing nearby--trees growing, singing lullabies to lull him into his pained sleep--flowers whose beauty compels him to hold on, just one more day.
"This isn't just for one elf, though. If we show the peoples of the world that we are kind and just, and take care of those who are harmed, we will be blessed by the peoples of the world. If we show that we are callous, we will lose support from the dwarves--the humans--even our own people. We cannot tarry.
"Taking care of the injured isn't all we must do, however. We must have justice! Thus I state my sentence, and hope you agree: The High Herbalist is to be stripped of her title, and if by the dawning of print she has not contributed one item of value to our leader's resting room, she will face what I call the Sacrifice to the Sun. We will gather seven great spikes for the week's seven days, and a room barely big enough to stand in with a chute seven trees tall leading up. From this chute, we will dump the former High Herbalist and leave her seven days. For another two weeks, a single spike will be dropped in on alternate days. Finally, after a further month of isolation, feeding on rainwater and passing beetles, she will be released, having faced judgement. Thus we show that we will not be trifled with! For we will not!
"We are not weak.
"We are not frail.
"We are the trunk of the mighty oak, the fang of the fierce wolf, the inevitable waters of the tide.
"We are not just elves.
"We. Are. Abecoiyaso!"

I support you, misko. Just not all of your actions...notably Mr. Omnicidalist.

WHAT IS WINNING ANYWAY
Life! Life for everyone, Xantalos. What higher goal is there? Without life, there is no light, no joy, no warmth, but it also renders even death, darkness, despair, and chilliness hollow and meaningless. If you destroy the universe and kill its inhabitants, you make all of that--everything done right and wrong, every monument and empire...less than nothing. Including your own success.

No, i'm worming into your mind. Telling you things that make sense, but cannot trust because I am your foe. Making you think I am a foe to all, but ally to all.

In other words, i'm trying to screw with ya.
I don't care what you are saying, I'm tryying to see how it is relevant to the power-playing, and whether perhaps I can use it to prove to GWG your unloyalty.
Meh. I feel that if Corai is willing to face the consequences, he can take action as he sees fits. The Moderates are pro- state and individual rights.

WHAT IS WINNING ANYWAY
KILLING THE LICHETTE. BEING ALLOWED TO RULE MY EMPIRE IN PEACE.
If you succeed, I will be happy, for in order for an empire to claim peace, it must be governed well and wisely, kindly and fairly.



So...misko, what do you want me to test on Corai first? If you don't respond, I'll go to my normal mode...
