Nice speech. The goings-on in the fortress truly were hilarious.

I would like to thank all the previous overseers and their terrible decisions, making this train wreck of a turn possible.

You are welcome.  Also, sign me up for a turn, assuming the fort and Drazoth II are still alive.

Welcome to Doomforests, please, choose a cult of your liking or head to the overseers office to register your own cult. Religious freedom is pride of this fortress!

Despite all the death and destruction, I'm a little sad to see that the year is over. All the screams and the beasts kinda grew on me after a while... Even if half of those deaths may or may not have been directly related to me only placing one cage trap in the caves...

But anyway, good job on keeping the fort stable!  I thought you weren't going to make it for a second there. With all the beasts and the... suds... good god the soap suds... But anyway. I think I'd like to have another go-around, assuming that the fortress is still alive by the end of it.

How long do we wait before passing the turn to the next person?

The purple overseer hat weights heavily on one's head. Some would argue that the leadership of Doomforest is uneasy to bear for too long. Others would simply suggest that we don't craft the next overseer hat out of rutile.

I would say take it now. Or if you are particularly patient, 12 hours from now.

I would stay with 40.19 since there doesn't seem to be any tools, packs or the likes for newer versions.

Wait, according to the front page, you're up next Sal, and then Maxcat. Or did that change?

Neko hasn't been online since November 15, and  mate888 was last online 3 day ago, so should Sal take it up?

Hi guys!
Finally back from the weekend. Seriously, the community around this fort is just so damn good, today I was just looking forward to coming back and reading your new posts. It's much better than anything I could have hoped for when I started inviting people to join this fortress.
Will update the front page with the new overseers in a bit. The new batch of overseers attracted to the fort by Taupe's insane turn are people I look forward to read.
I say go ahead and start your turn Salmeuk.
I agree it's time to have some !!FUN!!

P.S. I have a request before you start Salmeuk, could you do the DFMA upload for us? I would do it if I could make it work on my Linux system, but now I think it's really a good time to do it. Taupe's turn has changed things around for us somewhat.

First I have to figure out just what is causing the graphical glitches I am experiencing. It might have to do with an outdated tileset but I'm not sure. It's like all the tileset symbols went to a party, got really drunk, and couldn't figure out where they lived - ending up wherever they finally blacked out.

FYI I've been attempting a DFMA for some time but it's always interrupted by some issue or another. Here's to (hopeful) progress!

The only obvious thing to suggest is to download the LNP Taupe linked before. I tried that and got it working with the save fine.

I just got married by the way, and I'm moving to another continent, so I will be mostlyinactive the next few days. Wish me luck!

Wow, congratulations Drokles!  Good luck setting up your new RL fortress  :)

I'm new to succession forts in general, yes, but do all forts designed by multiple overseers inevitably degenerate into a body-filled labyrinth of chaos and despair like this? Or is this just a Battlefailed thing?

There isn't much middle ground between killed-by-dragon and never-seen-by-dragon.

OH FUCK OH FUCK OH FUCK IS TIME
Okay, wish me luck guys. If the fort survives my noobness, then I'll be the happiest bastard in the world.

My second turn's unnoficial goal was to turn everyone into vampires, and it backfired so bad, I ended up making the fort a more efficient, safer and friendlier place.
Apparently they evolved a taste for everything I love and care about
