What in God's name is KILLING them all? Is it a tantrum spiral? Forgotten beast actually actively loose?

Jesus, Yuli. I love you, man, you make everything exciting again.


Regarding Twilight: My wife talked me into going and seeing New Moon. Big mistake. Almost the entire movie was woodface-girl sitting and staring because her boyfriend left her. If I hocked a loogie into a petri dish and came back in a week, the resultant spread of single-celled organisms from my saliva via asexual reproduction would still be a better love story than Twilight.

I gave that beard a diamond, because I thought beards loved diamonds. She threw it away.

I gave that beard a gold minecart, because I thought beards loved gold minecarts. She pushed it into a lava pool.

So I unleashed the foulest legions of hell and gave that beard a bunker, because I thought beards loved not being torn to shreds by the kind of shit that makes your nightmares want to hide under the blankets with you.

She got torn to pieces ten paces away from it because she decided she wanted biscuits.

I think that we came to the conclusion that a voidspawn/demon war had to be forced, before anyone worked out the logistics of making it happen.

At this point I'm pretty much in favor of baiting the demons up onto the surface and using them as an impromptu army, after suitably making the outer fort impregnable of course. A little hellfire and toxic demon blood would probably improve the ambience.
No. First we need to gather as many vessels as possible.

That is going to be a problem, I think, considering that we tend so strongly to trend downwards.

Yuli, Yuli, Yuli, my friend, haven't you been paying attention?

In Murdermachines, FUN is up. We don't break open the clown car because it's epic; we break open the clown car because the pits of
this world's deepest darkest hells are still more hospitable than the outside of our front gate.

Am I the only one here that was waiting for the Void God to die?

He was the linchpin of our entire defensive strategy, a one-beard army who singlehandedly kept the fort from being overrun by the constant traffic of horrible things that roam outside the walls.

It was only a matter of time, is what I'm saying. This is Dwarf Fortress, something stupid was eventually going to kill him.

that's RIGHT. The reason why I lost the fort to freaking kobolds was because AMBASSADOR got in and ate everything first...!

Yuli Vlasi... you will go down in history. You must always be remembered, as the one who slew the greatest evil the world has ever known; through your actions, the people of this land might, possibly, look forward to a future. Hope. Happiness.

The fact that the greatest evil in the world was the mortal incarnation of our patron deity and his death probably removes our military from viability as a fighting force notwithstanding.

On the upside, I suspect we can look forward to a massively increased death rate among military dorfs, with plenty of lulzy stories for all. It's been a while since we got a Krosan killed and I'm going to be mildly annoyed if people start catching up to my incarnation count!

So did the Void God actually die or is he just napping in a warzone?

Because, you know. Void God. I can't imagine he'd be that much less deadly asleep.

Murdermachines: We have treasures of the ages piled around the fort in heaps of rotting garbage and flesh. We've created a home for a malevolent deity of ill fortune who seems predisposed to strike at us, the players, directly, in a way not seen since the days of the Virtual Boy. Our riches are guarded, not by traps or dwarven steel, but by the fact that the surface around us is so full of the murderous, the insane, and the murderously insane that one group of looters merely gets massacred by a group of marauders, and that's before the horrible abominations against nature trundle through and decapitate and/or assimilate the survivors. We have seen kobolds become conquerors, seen the very walls fracture and crumble before unnatural misfortune and poor forethought, and placed all our hopes in a batch of tortured, soulless children and the literal avatar of annihilation itself, because every other God worth mentioning turned away from us in horror a long, long time ago. Our home is no more and no less than a beacon of slaughter, a living, breathing organism that eats life, drinks hope, and shits misery as every sentient race in the known world gathers here to offer their best and bravest at the altar of Terry.

Nietzsche wrote, "He who fights with monsters should look to it that he himself does not become a monster. And when you gaze long into an abyss the abyss also gazes into you." Friends, we are not he who fights monsters. We are not he who gazes into the abyss.

We're the thing in the abyss that's gazing back.

I am so god damn proud of you people.

Get this to the front page, stat!

I think Anima has put an unofficial embargo on any more of my posts making it to the front page, to avoid me becoming the front page.

Can't say as I'd blame him. Whenever interest starts to flag or starts to come back up I like to try to come and write one of these to whip you gents up a bit.

That's not terrifying unless you consider how many of those were due to sudden acts of Terry.
