You goddamn human!  Any dwarf would look at this small fortress as an opportunity, not a disappointment.
Nah, I could create the unholy nightmare described above, but I probably won't be able to finish it in one turn and definitely will miss out on the opportunity to revel in the completed aforementioned unholy nightmare. When having a choice between managing a 24-soul fortress where one death can mean the downfall and waiting a couple of turns for an unholy nightmare (heh, I like that. Unholy nightmare. Sounds nice), I'll wait. Especially considering that the next turn after that probably won't come before about May 2012.

I flooded Hell with just fourteen dwarves.  With 24 dwarves, properly assigned, you could have a power station set up and an axle down to the magma sea for powered shenanigans of the pumpstack variety.  And even avoid accidental deaths... Probably.

Wait, 13 visited z-levels? Does that include the magma pipe? That's definitely more than 13 z-levels down.

Or Winrar. Winrar can open 7z, Rar, Zip, and a bunch others besides.

*bans*

Only free and open-source software is allowed in this fortress! Use PeaZip!

Winrar is free, they just beg you extra hard to pay them.

After your trial expires it will give you a pop-up when you're opening a compressed file to view it's contents for extraction, but it's been 2-3 years since my trial expired and absolutely everything is still functioning. I suppose I should update, though...

And Dariush: kill this sad excuse for a 'fortress' within the year and you can have some internet cookies.

What in the eleven hells happened to this fortress?
Corpses every-fucking-where, a good chunk of the fortress flooding, more corpses, Masters everywhere, corpses outside, and a pillar of obsidian next to trader stuff and two pillars of ice. At least there are any corpses at this landmark. Seriously, dude, how did you manage to do it?
Now that I have seen it, I'll draw the random obsidian pillar and the ex-traders (they are no more [irony]I'M SO FUNNY[/irony])

No, I'm not a Doctor fan (It helps that it's only shown in paid TV), but I google'd it, so I understood it. I was more worried about the corpses. There are a bunch of "hot spots", but then thay are strewn around the most unimaginable of all places. Also, the obsidian spike. I don't want to know what rawsorcery was done, but I propose to leave the sipke there, as an unusually uninteresting landmark :D
(Fun fact: I managed to mispell[misspell?] the word "spike" thrice, despite writing it only two times what one time xD)

We have an obsidian penis in front of the fortress. No matter how The Master made it, it is still an obsidian penis. We're keeping it.
