Well, the secret exit wasn't secret enough.

No way to get back in there, now? That's a real bummer...

[Timeless Bob]

Is the secret exit also a secret entrance, perhaps?  A door that only can be seen in the last light of Durin's day, for instance?

[Eric Blank]

Sadly, no, because the secret exit involves jumping off a short ledge. There's no way to get back up in there if you can't fly.

[Timeless Bob]

Note to future architects: secret doors and hidden "reset" pressure plate switches are a good idea.

I wonder if the DFHack guys could mock up a portable item called a "ladder" or even a "rope and hook" that can be used to go up or down a z-level in adventure mode?  That sure would be useful.  I really could have used it for my adventurer too.  The Museum would have a pair of quite famous boots in its collection otherwise.

[TheFlame52]

Put me back on the list. I have an idea.

[kibaseviltwin]

can i be taken off the list please thank you.

[Bralbaard]

I am going to have to wait a while before I can write up my story. I have no idea how long "a while" will be, so if anyone else wants to write a historical biography that'd probably be the most entertaining option.

Since Eric has no time, we'll have another activity for the historians guild!
A similar thing was done for Hostergaards turn

40: Hostergaard (finished) link Analysis by historians: 1, 2, 3..

Everybody who wants can dive into legends mode, to write your version of the story of Eric's adventurer. We might end up with many conflicting versions, but that would be part of the fun. When Eric has time to write the official version we'll see how accurate our predictions have been :-).

rules:
1) This is only about telling the history of Eric's adventures, so don't dash of on your own adventures, and post about those, you'll have to wait for your own turn to do that. (you can however search through the museums stacks to see if anything was deposited there, if needed) Try to restrict yourself to legends mode for as much as possible.
2) Everybody can join, you don't have to be on the turn list.
3) No uploading of save games, this will run simultaneously with the main game.

Please note that Eric has already written down one entry of the story: link

I'm curious as to what the historians guild can come up with this time...

I've also updated the turn list.

[Bralbaard]

Any news on your turn Th4DwArfY1?

Can you try to upload the save game? there are a lot of people waiting for a turn. 

[TD1]

Errr DFFD won't let me upload it?

I think the best thing to do would be to disregard my turn. I have a write up, but little point in giving it-Essentially, I went around, got a few jobs, killed some people. Then killed some peasants.

Sorry for the wait in what was essentially nothing :/

At least my fort was rubbish. Aquifer beat it.

Again, really sorry.

[CaptainMcClellan]

That's ok. Why don't you upload it to Mediafire if DFFD won't take it?

[Timeless Bob]

That's ok. Why don't you upload it to Mediafire if DFFD won't take it?

As a disclaimer, my save was at 160Mb when in zipped format - DFFD stores games only up to 100Mb, sothat's closed to us from now on.

Could you try to upload it to mediafire? That site is better (faster) than dffd even for small sites. It would be a shame to throw away the progress, and the fortress even if it's small.

Also, I'm looking forward to hearing that story.

I routinely delete finished succession games from my save file 

[Eric Blank]

How could you delete something mid-conversation? D:
