it uses the stone detailing i think 

[Samuel]

Yup.

Ironically, I later discovered I had 6 engravers.  Some of them must have been migrants.

[Zhaine]

Forgot to build traps over entrance to fort, fire imp runs inside unnoticed.
manages to somehow end up in the booze storage area.

I then realize booze explodes 

[Iados]

I channeled a tile that was stopping a murky pool from flooding the entire fortress...
I wanted to use the water for drowning invaders but i forget to build the floodgate!

FACEPALM

[TolyK]

bronze colossi can't drown :facepalm:
fire doen't affect them as fast as humans :facepalm:

Spoiler: hfs (click to show/hide)

demons can fly. EPIC WIN!

Spoiler: explanation (click to show/hide)

I have them in my army. captured by various civs. all 119 of the remaining I mean.

[Iados]

I embarked in an area with salty water and I was trying to desalinate it by building a cistern made only of constructed walls and floor...

but I misplaced a wall, the area flooded, and my doctor dwarf(temporary pump operator) is now resting on river's bottom...

[TolyK]

well I just took out a whole kobold civ, the only one on the (small) map, and didn't find anyone else.

THEN A DAMN KOBOLD, THE LAST ONE (legends) kicked me in the shin and I FELL DOWN 5 z-levels an drowned in water, along with the load of DB I was carrying...

...yeah.

P.S. There's a bronze colossus waiting stranded in a pond murky pool 

[Musashi]

Fact: I slaughtered several Forgotten Beasts in highly-frequented parts of the partly-flooded caverns.
Fact: I had little regard for the risks implied by such a neglect, because I'm naively thinking I need more Fun® and the water would wash away the crap anyway.
Fact: all tame animals that aren't restrained war dogs or piled up in a cage are sleeping, and they have been doing so for... huh, a while.
Fact: my mayor sleeps and eat a lot. I just found out today he specifically woke up just so he could drink, then went back to sleep.
Fact: I don't remember any monster causing comas, but maybe that's because they ate their victims before the extract affected them.
Fact: while my mayor is turning into a short alcoholic hibernating bear, there is one diplomat and one outpost liaison waiting for him to finish/start a meeting and promote him to baron.
Factual conclusion: I am a complete moron.

DB?  What is DB?

[Mattpoppybros]

My mayor threw a tantrum for EXACTLY one frame. Oh and my entire army VS one Drathla that kept beating up people who wanted a drink of water? They broke ALL of it's legs and wounded the rest of it. Could they KILL it? NO! I had to build a CAGE TRAP so they wouldn't fight for 15 months! I did this WHILE fighting! Man, figure out how to DAMAGE things!

How should I know? It's the middle of the night! 
Anyways I meant loot. DB stands for something, maybe related maybe not. it could be database

[lowbart]

Dwarfbucks?

[TolyK]

YES THANK YOU!

btw I am giving out lots of cookies today.

A well will not stop water from overflowing and flooding your entire fortress, covering everything in mud.

I found out about this by flooding my hospital
