Vampires blaming crimes on animals
« on: February 23, 2012, 10:12:22 pm »

So I read that the bugfix was there to stop that from happening. Anyone else think that would be hilarious, though?

Then shouldn't every crime have some tie to cats? I would convict a cat to be drowned in water.

Unfortunately, you can only convict an animal if there was actually someone who "witnessed" the animal committing the crime. I also noticed that my dwarfs got "Outraged by the ridiculous conviction of an animal"

websim.ai is coming dangerously close to being able to run Gridhood. Maybe I'll live to see the day if I exercise, eat right, and somehow convince the world's governments not to nuke everyone.

Imagine a vampire killing someone, then blaming the crab people.

You could say dwarven justice is a... kangaroo court.

*throws two drums and cymbal off a cliff*
Basically what you would espect from an escaped lunatic. Any normal person would throw two drums and a cymbal at the ofender in question (then throw said ofender off a cliff...into magma)

It's treated as completely normal because this is Dwarf Fortress.  There's absolutely nothing wrong with surrounding yourself with a wall of flames, only to later realize that you're surrounded by a wall of flames.
There's nothing that can't be solved by hurling fifteen roc birds at it.

the magma is then used to craft armor.

They also get pretty upset if you convict a dead guy. I haven't had it happen yet but what happens if a tantruming dwarf kills someone without a witness?

Convicting dead bloodsucking giant crows was the only right thing to do! Anyone who didn't agree went to jail for a loooong time.  :P

I like those topics because a theory of mine makes so much sense. In wild west trash stories, the big mustache villain ties the damsel in the rails, waiting for those fancifull trains to just roll over and acomplish his objective. Then come the heroes and change the direction of the train (superheroes flyingkick the train off the rails).

Bay12Forums has some big, damn heroes.
