Just finished reading the entirety of Deathgate... That was quite the read! Bravo, gentledwarfs!
I'm relatively new to DF, (about...2 weeks since I downloaded the game, most of which was spent reading about Deathgate...jerks).

Anyway, I need to have a tiny stamp on this, seeing as I missed out on the last one. I've added to the Dorf-inator.
(Side note, I would like profession as "Guy" regardless of gender).

E: I should probably also mention that this thread has my forum virginity. Be gentle ;)

Look at this dude! HE wants to be the GUY!

Are you a bad enough dude to be the Guy? The Dwarven King has been kidnapped by ninjas!

added Jables's death to the Dorfinator.

I would assume you can go ahead and redorf him if there's free bodies after everyone else who hasn't been dorfed yet gets one. We could probably do "automatic" redorfing since we have the Dorfinator list to show who needs it.

Indeed.  The whole idea of the lore excuse of body-snatching was to encourage re-dorfing of every character.
So whenever someone dies, redorf em!

Ah, good. Glad to have Anima's seal on that one; I had started to worry that by beginning to set policy for the Dorfinator, I was coming close to setting policy for Murdermachines as a whole.

EDIT: Does the link have to be reposted every time someone changes it? https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AlSo5hVNJbAqdGUxNmw5dEFqVG91Nm1Jb2xKRk02NVE#gid=0

No reason it should be. As Anima linked to it on the front page, as long as we can make a gentledorf's agreement to actually use it, it should work fine.

If you're the player taking a turn, and you want to make a pass of the dorfings, you can check the list, see who's dead and alive, and update statuses accordingly.

If you have someone or more than one someone die, it'd be cool if you (or someone) could make sure that the cause of death is logged as well, because I feel like that would be really fun to read later on.

If you're someone who wants dorfed, you just open it and add to the list; next time a player makes a dorfing pass he should catch you and get you added.

It's a little bit of paperwork, but with much less potential for missed dorfings or redorfings than the player having to catch every dorf request post that gets made...

EDIT: That is to say, no, you guys, you don't have to repost the link. You might acknowledge that you made a change in a post you make, but you don't really have to repost the link because it goes to the same page.

As long as you have that link, google cares not if you change things. Heck, it doesn't care if four of you are on there making edits at once, it'll catch them all. There's even a chat bar on the side where you jokers can talk over your dorfing changes.

After having found and finally read DG II I'd again like to sign up for a spot in the overseer list. I promise not to kill Timmy (again) ;)
@AnimaRytak: you could've linked the new DG on the old thread in the last post... I have to admit: now I'm too lazy to go back there, necro the thread, add the link...

Tiny Tim... you bastard!


He was a legendary crutchwalker! Legendary!

(Dorfs don't still gain buckets of physical attributes from skill xp, do they? I'd have liked to have seen a dorf back in those days pick up superdorf strength and speed through crutchwalking experience...)

Whatever makes it work. I figure this way dorf requests should be easier to keep up with than individual posts. Google Docs is probably the best collaborative tool even created; that document has a chat bar, for the love of Armok!

There's two because I didn't bother to actually compile the spreadsheet last night. I did it this morning and will probably delete the text list and the link to it later today.

[EDIT: Marked off several columns on the right side as an experimental project; let's see if we can keep succession history on these wee bastids! I for one would have loved to be able to access a simple list like this, for example, of the many deaths of Tryrar or Baelor from Deathgate. I added an entry for the only dorf death I've noted so far: my own. I suppose we have an insane dwarf who will join me soon.]

Let's do this up right.

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1dbxYuxhDx9Sbmi9yRbcw8w_YTD2AnPDkyhtaRn2-y2Q/edit

That's a publicly-accessible document which can contain a proppa dorflist and which you doods can add to and update as needed. If we can get this up to date, Anima, can you link to this from the OP?

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AlSo5hVNJbAqdGUxNmw5dEFqVG91Nm1Jb2xKRk02NVE

Take this one too. The dorflist would be so much easier to parse if it was on this spreadsheet, but it's late for me and I don't have the time to get it corrected right now.


I've updated the public spreadsheet with everyone from the list (up to the last copy posted by UristMcDwarfFortress).

Guys, please add yourselves if you're not on here. I don't think I got most of the requests from this page.

A proppa dorflist might actually be a good thing to compile. We could refer back to it every so often for automatic redorfing of people who died, especially those of us who have militia dorfs and get our giggles out of watching our blighted souls jump from slaughtered dorf to slaughtered dorf.

Insanity, one favor, since we never got confirmation on it:

Please verify that we do have a marksdwarf named Krosan II and a baby dorf named Lashidang in the fort right now, I have no clue if Saint got around to it.

Would appreciate, for the sake of curiosity, a screen of Krosan II's details page to see what kind of antisocial prick he is.

I was just gonna spectate, but I can't. I'll sign up again for a turn, Lets just hope I don't become the chain of corruption again.

Ter_I
Terry
You are the bringer of Terry.
Well...

Idort DID miss his turn on Deathgate I because save corruption ate his file...

It was arguably the first major sign of the end, the first sign that Terry was angry enough to destroy us.

Bastard IS the BRINGER OF TERRY!

Awwww, I have a tiny bearded baby.

Though the female organs are new knowledge to me, but hey, live and learn.

I'd love for Krosan to be my child, so I can mother him, and eventually abuse him. He's just a child, so he doesn't know any better than "I wanna be a soldier when I grow up!"

Not to mention I'll have time to impart the ways of combat onto him when I carry him into battle.

(But totally dorf my kid as Krosan, it'll piss him off to no end.)

Nooooooooooo!

Name that baby Lashidang!

Yes, please name that firstborn baby Lashidang for me.

I don't know if I got redorfed in the last wave, since I think we were low on unnamed dwarves; if there's no Krosan in the fort, please dorf me as one of the marksdwarves as Krosan II.

Also, I get to go tell Dortimus that he's a mommy now. This will probably end badly dorfily.

YES YES YES YES YES THIS IS THE BEST DAY EVER

I WAS THE FIRST DORF TO DIE IN DEATHGATE II!

(Redorf when availability permits as Krosan II, marksdwarf. Squad captain would be nice but not required.)

This is the first post I have seen on these forums that makes me doubt the poster's sanity.

Really? Have you not read the Dwarven Childcare thread or the Mermaid Farming thread?


In seriousness, not only did my dorf officially christen Murdermachines, it did it in the most epic way I could have hoped for: getting chomped by the wereape.

The only way that could have been better is if I'd survived the bite and transformed later.

Gentlemen, we're off to a brilliant start. I heartily expect to be up to Krosan IV before my turn rolls around. Get to it.
