OK, I'm going to play more of this, between school/homework/programming/personal DF/sleep/reading ASOIAF.

Updates may be a bit slow in coming.

...

Anyway, I'll set your dwarf to doing useful things, peregarrett, but first I'm going to overhaul the entire industry setup of the fortress. At the moment, dwarves are running around doing any job that they've got Novice in. I mean to remedy this by setting up structured industries. It will be woefully inefficient to get running, but it will be glorious once I'm done.

Also, why are there only three babies? My forts get swamped with so many migrant children (yes, I set the child cap low) that I decided to rename them in the raws as "dwarven booze sponges".

Dwarven booze sponges? That's certainly an accurate description of them.

On bay12, a poll option of basically 'nuke the world' named 'Apocalypse Hitler' is like asking an alcoholic if they want some whiskey.

Just finished reading the entirety of Deathgate... That was quite the read! Bravo, gentledwarfs!
I'm relatively new to DF, (about...2 weeks since I downloaded the game, most of which was spent reading about Deathgate...jerks).

Anyway, I need to have a tiny stamp on this, seeing as I missed out on the last one. I've added to the Dorf-inator.
(Side note, I would like profession as "Guy" regardless of gender).

E: I should probably also mention that this thread has my forum virginity. Be gentle ;)

Look at this dude! HE wants to be the GUY!

Are you a bad enough dude to be the Guy? The Dwarven King has been kidnapped by ninjas!

Jables the Stoneman has been re-bodified as Jables the Stoneman.

Work on the new sacrificial pit is progressing at a slow rate. I've recruited some masons from the random useless dwarves who are milling around to speed up the process.

Raptor the Sniper has died of thirst. What? We have... twenty drinks. Damn, I need to get the booze industry running ASAP.

And a mason has been taken by a mood! GIVE ME ARTIFACT MICROCLINE BLOCKS!!!

Raptor was melancholy according to the dorflist, so he just stopped drinking.

Have you dorfed or redorfed anybody other than Jables?

...I can't believe I just noticed Deathgate II has already started.  Dorfing request added for The Mad Fool!

Jeebus. I think the curse of the military is real.

Looking at the death notes I've started keeping in the dorfinator, all three dorfs which have been registered as KIA were military of some stripe. (At least, Stoneman's dorfing entry says "Axedwarf.")

Huh.

Actually, you're supposed to add your name yourself (hence why it's a google doc).

Sorry. I was away for a few days, and have now returned in a not-very-fit-to-play-DF state. I don't have much stomach for dorfing, but seeing as Jables died in my turn I thought it necessary for me to redorf him.
Updates will be intermittent and sparse, so if people want me to hand the save along, I will do so, but I'd like to finish it myself.

Well, by the rules Anima posted in the OP you're allowed two weeks to close it out. Dunno how strict he plans to be about enforcing it, but d'ye think you can finish the year in that time?

Well he was pretty strict last time in keeping the whole "no time limit thing." :p

I'm sure if you can do it within a timely manner with a small extension of time, he'd make an exception, but I'd recommend not pushing it.

E: Of course that's for him to decide, and me to speculate on.

The two week limit was created after certain overseers took a month for a single turn in Deathgate (myself included, sadly).

This time I will be strictly enforcing said limits unless you're very near to completion.
