Locking childs in half flooded pit with food is very, very efective. They won't do nothing exceot swim and talk. when they reach
twelve they will be legendary +5 in all social skills and super-strong.

In a hole in the ground there lived a dwarf. Not a nasty, dirty, wet hole, filled with the ends of worms and an oozy smell, nor yet a dry, bare, sandy hole with nothing in it to sit down on or to eat: it was a dwarf fortress, and that means magma.

my danger room does not seem to work. between lever and effect, how much real life time should be counted?

Did you connect each and every spear to the lever? You need to manually order the connection of each one individually. Also keep in mind that a spear won't be removed from the "connect to" list until it is actually connected, meaning it is possible to accidentally queue up a connection to the same spear multiple times. If it is all connected right then a spear triggered by lever should trigger almost instantly upon being pulled.

thanks for the advice :)

A trap with 10 training spears will train 10x as fast as a trap with 1. Just make sure that you are using training spears as opposed to the elven wooden spears. Training spears are pretty much harmless to anything wearing clothing, even if they have 10 of them (about the worse you get is some bruises), but elven spears are dangerous.

It would be brutally difficult and probably won't work. In other words, it's absolutely dwarven!
