Epic lolbump away!  Sorry, but this thread deserves to be bumped, if only to let new readers see it.
I don't care what Iituem says about his writing, this is a beautifully written masterpiece.  Is there any chance this will be resurrected at all?  Even just for it to have an actual ending?

Unfortunately, I no longer have the save for OK, so I can't restart it anyhow.  =/

I might be willing to do a new fort once the next version of DF comes out, though.  And I admit, I miss doing OK as well. =/

No slaughtering every man, woman and child we see just to teleport to the moon.

 :-\ That's unfortunate.  If by "new fort" you mean starting from scratch, would you at least write up an ending for this one?  Just for some sort of closure, even if it is wholly from your head?

I could.  On the other hand, I spoke a little too soon about the save.  I've found it, though it is for good old 40d, and the game itself is broken. 

What I could do is try and recreate the game in DF2010.  I've found the world seed and could probably try and locate the original build site.


Still, we have options.

1)  I try and get a working copy of 40d and play out more OK.
2)  Put the beast to rest with an epilogue and do something new.
3)  Restart OK as a DF2010 game, either from scratch or trying to rebuild the structures and replace the characters to get to our previous point.

Note that in all three cases updates will still be weekly rather than daily if I do it - life is busy.

Alas, nay.  The world will not regenerate in DF2010, not the same.  Seeds don't carry through precisely, after all the changes.  Looks like an epilogue it is...

Oh well. It's been a great ride, and your writing is amazing as always. I eagerly await the ending of this fort.

Iituem, an epilogue would be welcome.
