Did all the updating. Checking dwarfed status and archive will have to wait. Also my turn appears to be next.

Still missed my second turn request:
I've PM'd Urist Imiknorris, and just in case it lasts that long, or a ton of people get ebola/get hit by a taco truck/fall off a skyscraper, I'd like another turn.

The miasma caused Sethrist to go miserable and throw a tantrum. During the tantrum he mauled a dog to near-death and that caused his mood to go all the way up to content. Apparently, beating the crap out of dogs is the best way to achieve happiness.

Why are there cactus tiles all over the first cavern?

I hope someone finds Slowpokes sacrifice. I'm really curious about it.
Also, if you could continue my project to demolish the tundra of Muck and Mist, or as I call it, The Shit, that would be nice.

It's the huge statue of an H with Strategia's corpse on it. How could you miss that? :P

Come to think of it, I've known about it all along and never thought to mention it.

Oh, that? I knew that was there, I didn't think that was a sacrifice. Or that it was an H.

Back on page 85, there is a picture of it that I took in Overseer, but I called it a watchtower.  'Cause that's what I thought it was.   

If it is shaped like an H, shouldn't it be called a hackrifice?

Hidden beneath rusting weapons was a mass of assorted bones. An elf, a goblin, even an ogre. All just waiting for someone to walk by and notice them, like some kind of land mine of horror.

What about a vertical "HORRORFAILED" with a letter on each level?

Or, Speaking as someone who recentley finished re-reading Failcannon, place the letters next to one-another, like with the enterence sign there.

Also, after rereading that fort, it appears I was the first to find one could not establish a new fort in that world. The things you notice.

I am pleased to see that one of the only two survivors from my turn is The Space Who Makes The Weapons, along with Ledi, Murderous Cat Lady (...and Catalyst and AC from before that, somehow). But it seems we don't have a chief medical dwarf anymore, where'd Gizogin go? I don't recall anyone mentioning his disappearance, but I'm guessing they didn't notice because this is the Horrorfailed medical system we're talking about.

Speaking of medical stuff, lil' Jorlin has been strapped to a hospital bed for at least 5 years, despite having no injuries, and nobody has noticed.

23rd Granite, 515
In what is likely a vain effort to simplify the operation of the fortress, I have begun the process of disassembling unlabeled levers that are clearly not connected to anything, and randomly pulling those that are until I work out what they do. Perhaps one of them will open the gates.



But honestly there's no hurry.

4th Slate, 515

Given that several official positions in Horrorfailed are mysteriously vacant (although the answer to such mysteries probably involve the words "they" and "died"), I have taken the liberty of appointing some dwarves to fill these positions. Helgoland is our new bookkeeper, armageddonCounselor our new broker and Aban Ingishmetul our new manager. I have appointed myself mayor simply upon the weight of having demanded the position publicly and the previous mayor having no objection to it.

My instinct tells me it's probably a bad sign he didn't make more of a fuss.

15th Slate, 515

Operation GHOSTFAIL is nearing completion, with the ghosts of Splint and Nani having finally been laid to rest. There are only two ghosts left in the fortress, those of Bembul Shigosmeng and Íteb Iroloddom, but for some reason the masons refuse to carve slabs with their names. I can only assume this is an act of deliberate sabotage, but of course, the possibility exists that their true names may be different from the names on the fortress' logbooks, which leaves us with only one option if Operation GHOSTFAIL is to be completed:

Memorialise every deceased dwarf in the fortress' logbooks.

We're gonna need more slabs.
