I looked at it too - lol'd at Simon Tam being mayor... Did anyone else get the name reference?

Who wouldn't? Though I am surprised he isn't our head doctor, but the fact that he's a surgeon makes sense at least.

Does anyone mind if I answer Ase's question? I don't want to cut the wind out of the next overseer's sails, but the poor fellow has been asking quite insistently.

Wow. Just wow. I'm just minding my own business studying for the ACT test and you go and finish the year before I could make a journal. How rude.  :P

Just pick a date and set it then is all you gotta do. And I would imagine most of them knew Sus quite well or have been on duty without becoming weapon lords for years now.

Took a look at the save for kicks and... sweet mother of God.

@Splint: Yeah, I guess it would be fun to have a Sus II around to watch. A miner if they can find one, or possibly a mechanic.
Also, you did a kickass job tying up the loose ends regarding the posthumous journal. I personally felt it would've been unsatisfying to have left hanging.

Certainly you could argue that DF is a lot like The Sims, only... you know... with more vomit and decapitation.
If you launch a wooden mine cart towards the ocean at a sufficient speed, you can have your entire dwarf sail away in an ark.

THat wasn't the intention. But disasters have a nasty habit of showing up at the end of a turn it seems.

Yep... He's not head doctor because Splint already named Kannen (and mentioned him, too, I think). And lots of people haven't heard of Firefly... largely because it didn't even run a whole season. :( At least it was an artifact quality show while it lasted.

This is starting to sound more and more like an unintentional version of "Screw the next player over". :P
Yes... I noticed that... Splint's turn ended all right, but my turn ended with holistic spawn all over the place and several of the dwarves bitten and feverish. Mr Frog's ended with goblins all over the place. Draignean's turn ended with a massive spawn wave (and Holistic's equivalent of a goblin battlemaster). Now your turn's ended with miasma everywhere, everybody in the militia and walking on the spike trap among zombies, and possibly a necromancer hidden somewhere on the map... with hundreds of body parts everywhere on the surface for them to resurrect.
In Spearbreakers, the dwarves don't even care about not caring about anything anymore.

The proper term is !!FUN!! Corai, get it right.

I've heard of Firefly but never seen it. And Sus' Presumed dead label will stand untill someone can find his dead ass. And Kannan was appointed because at the time we had no-one available with actual medical skills to treat the wounded. Now he's basically the tradtional CMD of the fort.

Also, for Spearbreakers, this most recent mess as simply a really messy Friday.

Oh, I use !!FUN!! plenty, but so far, Spearbreakers has exceeded !!FUN!! so I decided to upgrade to Fun, it seems creepier, it fits the Detective's children.

This. So much.

If Loud Whispers/whoever ends up going next manages to make it a season without our own doctors and soldiers systematically slaughtering us to a dwarf I'll call it a fucking miracle.

If we can go a whole seaon without somebody dying due to medical malpractice it'll be even more of a miracle. As I recall more of our soldiers have been killed by neglect than have died as a result of enemy action.
