Very very inspiring.

I'm a bit confused on some parts though.  Since I am not a slang master, what does PTW mean?  For future reference of course...

It should be pointed out that Posting To Watch is somewhat pointless in Simple Machines forum software.  Click the button marked "Notify", next to "Reply", and you will get the same result without cluttering up the thread.

Ptw is actually important since it plays a role on informing the op that people are expecting more, just don't post only ptw, give a comment too. Ptw is important.

Alrighty then...

PTW

Because I want to learn how exactly this will turn out.  I've also been a bad boy and have been killing all trade caravans that come to my fortress.  Now I think I must go and buckle down underneath the soil to keep out of range of my enemies on the surface.  This is really giving me some great ideas! :)

Yeah, that's true, it's a statement of "I like this and would like to read more", so I'm sure people appreciate that sort of thing.  Still, threads filled with "PTW" and not much more annoy me, especially on places like Reddit that have a well developed Save Comment feature.

The reason the notify thing isn't done so often is because it'll just send you emails and won't actually make it show up in the "new replies to your posts" section. Also annoying is that you can't stop a topic from being in the new replies section permanently. I posted in some topics on the general discussion board once, and now that's cluttering it up permanently.

At any rate, have the ravens succeeded yet?

Hmmm, I assumed it was in some way related to the reporting a post and never used it... I don't actually use the reply button either, as I vastly prefer the quick-reply option.


I also love having blinded veterans building walls in hell because they won't go run off to fight stuff mid-construction... while being totally capable of putting down whatever actually comes to bother them.

As far as I can tell all the ravens in hell have been incinerated or lost to the glowing pits. The ones in the Necrofactory are still very much alive (undead?), numbering around 40. The corpse stockpile also has plenty more bodies to process into additional undead. With the arrival of roaming wild demons the clown legion is still the most successful army in hell for now.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)
The Dwarves have removed the injured demons lurking on the grounds of hell with liberal application of axe. I am somewhat concerned by how Erith and E.C. Vabok have been caught in a herd of Shrew fiends' syndromes, with any luck the Dwarf blood they're covered in should shield them from infection.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)
Baron Muthkat's first kill in hell was a salt demon, beheaded with a single bolt to the head. A pleasing start to the hunts.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)
The patrols went as far as the demons beneath the spire; demons on the fringe were baited into the webs and their overall strength was gauged. At 1-3 demons the group handled everything just fine, at 3-6 Datan and Asmel got their arms and spleens broken and the patrol had to withdraw to the spire.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)
Erith also gets kudos for killing a demon by eating it to death.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)
The plans for the bedrooms have been designated above a glowing pit and are being constructed under the dutiful watch of a gila fiend on the hill top 50 paces away and the werecivets on a peninsula to the east.

Amazing! Colonizing the HFS promises to be a memorable achievement.

He bit it to death? I think that makes that dwarf the single most badass creature I've seen.

Maybe their blood taste like Dwarven Rum.
Maybe their flesh taste like Plump Helmets well-minced with Dwarven Wine minced with Dwarven Sugar.
