Weaponization is still weaponization. I'm fine with obsidian casting to make crap, but even divirting hostile into it is weaponizing. No go.

Ooops, didn't spot there was a magma weaponization ban for the fort.  My bad!  :-[

I meant later down the line. And as a precaution, I'm going to shift everyone around a bit, so Stormtemplar can get right into things. And if I'm right on my hunch, I don't think we'll need traps. Hear that Stormtemplar? I have no idea why mitch is confident but he must have a good reason, so exploit it!

Crap. Until the 6th of june I'm only gonna be able to play this around weekend and the one after next. I could take the turn right after Mitch is done, and it would probably be about the same length as his or you could bump me down one. Obviously I'd prefer the first, but if you guys would rather not have a long turn, let me know.

well they will only run after the fortification(s) is(are) carved so all good :-)

i think pitchblende has a density of 7600 whilst native platinum has 21600 or thereabouts, silver on the other hand has 10490. so native platinum hammers would be badass :-D

Huh. Are any of the other lurkers (eg; Dariush? Where the bloody hell did he go?) actually here? I'm getting the distinct feeling that there are maybe three people who regularly post in this thread; Splint, me and Turkey. And Overlord, though that is a relatively recent occurrence. (Rather exciteable, isn't he?)

I've seen Talvi, like, three times. Mr Frog about the same.

Is everyone just absurdedly busy?

I have issues channeling it properly to do that method. I end up flooding the fortress with magma.

I sure am, but I'm never a heavy poster. The others might show a bit more activity when something interesting happens, but it is near the end of the school year so I think a lot of people have exams and stuff.

damn, forgot the FBs :-< In apologies, heres a limerick

There was a dwarf name john cloot
He went to stonehall
He found a spawn in his soup
And was reduced to a smear on the wall

(If you want to know how that works(finding a spawn in your soup), see here. http://adventurers.keenspot.com/d/0392.html)

I'm afraid to click.  The internet has taught me fear of nondescript links in forums.

I've been out for a couple more days. Niccolo - epic picture.  :o  That's kind of how I imagined them. Very nice... As to you being an overseer, welcome aboard, we're glad to have you.

Welcome, Paintbrushturkey, OverlordTNT. :) May you both go insane like the rest of us. lol


Also... Don't limericks have four lines? Like...

There once was a young dwarf named Talvi
Who went mad from something past freaky.
Hasn't been the same since
Her own mind's self-defense:
She turned herself into a cavy.

Quote
I've seen Talvi, like, three times.
Oh, and I'm Talvieno. Dwarf Talvi is Talvi.
And yeah, things got a bit busy. lol   Mainly because I got sick, and then internet issues, and then distracted with Mass Effect (legendary +5 excusecrafter)... But I'm still around. :) I'm an intermittent poster on the forums, and was never that heavy of a poster anyway. I've also really gotten into modding DF... Thinking of making something absurdly evil. Taking a bit longer than I'd like now that I'm sharing my laptop 2/3 of the time.
Oh, and if you've noticed, when I post I usually post huge posts instead of smaller ones. lol
And I've been being a hermit. :-\


Mr Frog - as to Joseph, I'd love to read what you came up with. lol   Talvi isn't quite bright enough to figure out what's going on with that, but I have the feeling that the Joseph story carries with it some very, very dark undertones... And the only one who knows about him (thus far) is too trusting.

I need to make another journal entry - I'll probably do that soon. :)

A bit disappointed about breaching HFS. And again, I'm surprised Splint is for it, especially given the fact that he doesn't want the fort to go down... :P Perhaps HFS would be best saved for the utter annihilation of the fortress when we've decided it has reached the appropriate end of its life?

Mitch! Moar updates! Moar mugs! Moar cavies!

@Niccolo:

No, no, I check this thread pretty much every day. I just don't usually have much of anything substantial to post beyond the occasional semi-witty comment.


@Talvieno:

Thing I should run by you: the events in my journal leave Talvi a little... brain-fried. She steals dorf!Mr Frog's PEA -- hence the lack of journals -- leading to Mr Frog becoming privy to who's really pulling her strings while in the course of interrogating her on just how in the hell his PEA made the trek from a locked box under his bed to behind Talvi's wardrobe. A royally-PO'd Frog then administers her far more amnesiacs than could possibly be necessary. So she'll probably be pretty muddled for a bit.
