unless a dwarf cleaner gets to it.

Time for raising drawbridges then, and a dwarven bathtub :3

Wait, did someone say "impractical" like it was a bad thing?
What the hell?

Personally I think a moat of "Causes Death" blood is a fantastic idea. It could be a slight issue if dwarves walk through it, but that's ok.

Death after FOUR MONTHS.

Seriouslly this has the longest incubation time of ANY syndrome I have ever seen

[Bobnova]

So it could be marginally more practical.

Any idea if syndromes continue to be active after goblins leave the fortress embark map?
If so this is PERFECT.
Get that glop on 'em, let 'em go back to their goblin civ and spread it, cackle when six months later the entire civ dies.

This is why my ideal dwarf-wash doesn't use standing water, but flowing water ... so any contaminants flow out the side.  It should be possible to have it them flow into your moat, of course.

[GoombaGeek]

Make your next dwarf-wash drain into the moat. The dwarves will be marginally less doomed and the moat will fill with whatever lovely things your dwarfs like to step in. (But here's the real question - in dorfland, what happens when a single dwarf steps in dog poop? I think this is the real reason that nobody poops in DF.)

[krenshala]

Because of the way contaminants spread the entire world is already covered, it isn't worth the extra effort to include what is probably already coating everything.
