It's been just five years since my last turn? :(

Can you push me down 10 or so positions down the list?

I don't think there are ten positions after you, but I'll put you at the end!

This brings it around to katana.

Against my better judgement I would like to be put down for dorfing and if possible a turn. I've never played a succession fort before but I figure that over qualifies me for this one.

You're on the list.  And I know katana is around, but I haven't heard back :(  We're going to have to skip if I don't hear anything by the end of today.

I've just finished re reading Boatmurdered and Headshoots (also to a lesser extent Syrupleaf) and I have reached the conclusion that ArdentDikes is a more dwarfey place because it has faced the equivalent and more of what those two faced and survived. Admittedly Urist isn't really a patch on HolisticDetective but we're getting close.

I'm pretty sure only Battlefailed/Failcannon has had it worse.

But they had it a lot worse.

Katana's journal #1

The first thing I noticed when I came here was that I DON'T FREAKING EXIST..
Jk. Dorfing mahself now. I'll be that leatherworker.

Some time in early spring

Alright, some random guy shoved a bunch of messily engraved slabs and other random junk into my face, screaming something about being overseer, or not overseer, and goblins fighting monkeys. Yeah, this place is a mess, and now I'm randomly chosen to rule? Why pick some random super-rusty leatherworker with minor military experience to be your next ruler of a fort whose other overseers were doing a perfectly fine job?

Well, let's look around. I've lived here for years and I still have no idea how to get from one place to another. You, Urist, why are you wearing nothing?

No seriously. I can't find any records of you either. There are so many Urists, and some even changed their name to Urist. Then I notice this mechanic or something at a craftsdwarf's workshop.

Rock bars? He's delusional, leave him there. I have other things to worry about, like that smoke to the north of his workshop. Where's that coming from, anyway? Hm, over here a bunch of people are dumping stuff.

Looks like some sort of circle. A grave? Memorial? Dining hall? I hope someone will explain to me. Our artifacts list mentions many named steel battle axes. Where are the swords? What is this madness? I wonder how much metal we have... We have hundreds of iron bars, and a few wafers of adamantine, among other things like pewter and gold. We appear to have 3 (full time) military dwarves. Urist McOnlyWearsBlood I saw earlier keeps complaining about being unable to put his stuff away. Does anyone know where I can find a weapon rack/armor stand?

It's stupid how much adamantine is being wasted on sutures. Don't these "Doctoids" know better? Why do we have so many animal caretakers? Hey, where's my suit of adamantine armor? I ordered it a few days ago and instead, you all dump stuff? What are you dumping that for anyway? Screw that dumping, make me my armor!

Then I got some reports of a giant eagle being torn up by a lone random trap at the entrance. What're the chances of that happening? Well then, back to the drills. I've noticed that many rooms seem to have windows, instead of doors. Must be awkward being stuck in there.

ENOUGH WITH THE FREAKING DUMPING YOU SOBER IDIOTS. I tell you to stop, then you walk over to somewhere else, and DUMP MORE STUFF. Now could somebody PLEASE FREAKING EXPLAIN TO ME what this dumping is for? You, Urist, what's this about? Oh, you don't know, you just feel like dumping? How bout you, another Urist, nope? Um... You, Doctoid person, why are you doing this? Oh wait, you're not even dumping stuff, you just happen to be there. What's wrong with this freaking place...

The dumping was part of my attempt to clean the place up and stop job-cancellation spam.  It's seriously slowed down if you can get any work done at all. At one point I think I had 3/4 of the fort traipsing outside to drop stuff in the lava.

The crazy dude in the craftsdwarf shop is demanding yarn cloth. We don't have any, nor do we have any shearable animals. Also, I think a lignite bin is on fire in there. The place is already walled off, so there's no reason to bother with him any more.

I AM POINTY DEATH INCARNATE
Ye know, being an usurper overseer gone mad with power isn't too bad. It's honestly not that different from being a normal overseer.
To summarize:
They do an epic face. If that fails, they beat said object to death with their beard.
