I got fed up with my fortress, so I decided to kill everyone (abandon is for elves) with a cave-in.

OK, cave-ins were always pretty deadly, but with the new falling object damage they are downright brutal.  As far as I can make out from the logs, many people were killed by the flying bodies of other victims.  One baby's corpse ricocheted off three other people, two walls and the floor.

Your announcements get periodically deleted. If you always see the same announcement, you should get some more announcements. Or you could just look in gamelog.txt for your missing announcements.

90% sure you just have to scroll up. If you are trying to find the specifics to how a dwarf or creature died, its probably best to check the "r" Reports menu.

I use gamelog.txt whenever I need to find things. It merges announcements and reports from fortress mode and combat logs from adventure mode, and never gets deleted.
