I'll gladly claim one and make sure it doesn't survive into the next spring.

You being Lord Slowpoke, I'll give you the quick to tire one.

Done and done, as per your original dorfing instructions.

We are now 13.

Aaaaand another.



I'll make this one Aussie, since we lack an Aussie right now despite the thread's title.  Plus I find the idea of Aussie disguising himself as an infant amusing.

Edit: And another!  I'll make this one Spish, unless you want to rule as a zombie?

Imaginary Journal of Catalyst, Golden Child of Horrorfailed.  Final Entry.

Four births!  please welcome ThatAussieBaby, Dinjoralo, Kar Puwuncobi, and the other one (never did dorf him, so I'll leave that to Spish) to the fort!  We are now 15.

I am now a child!  I think living over a full year may be a bit of an accomplishment in this fort.

Aside from the births, nothing exciting happened in these last few months.  Here's a look at everything we've done with the fort.



And that's my turn!  I'll do an audio-log version sometime soon.

SAVE, SPRING 507

-----------

Hooray!

I wanted to get more people buried, and actually finish the dining room, but oh well.  I also wanted to build a safe entrance, but that's going to be a real tough one.  With some traps, a ready gate, and a dwarf we're willing to risk, and VERY careful management, it might be possible.  I never touched Aussie's project because it frightens me.

Please sign me up for another turn, I can't wait to see what shape this fort is in 20 years from now.  Also, it would be really awesome if my dorf lives that long.

Nice to see this going again. I'll grab the save, convert it back to ASCII, and inform whomever is next.

It looks like a fort three times its population size. Now we just need a giant migrant wave that actually survives to fill it out, and we should finally reach that "average successful fort" level!

...so then what do we do? Build a giant magma cannon that backfires?  :P

That was in Battlefailed (the reclaim was the magma one). We need something new. Something with minecarts. Maybe.

Save downloaded. Being the lazy procrastinator I am, there's no telling when I'll actually start, but I expect to be done within a week as per community standards.

Ah, yes, I thought something was amiss. Now I see. There's not enough terrible things in the lakes.

Can they run over things, like zombies? If so, I nominate a wave of minecarts that can be activated to sweep the area around the entrance.

I was actually sort of planning something like that, involving minecart roller coasters and sweet jumps. I've never even attempted anything with minecarts before, so it ought to be... interesting.

I was going to convert the save, but since you already grabed it I'll just update the OP.

Remember: high-speed minecarts in busy hallways are perfectly safe.

Oh right, speaking of converting the save, did you need it in a non-Phoebus version?  I meant to ask.
