I think it's the way towns develop now. In the beginning, people move into a town. Then they start producing tables, which results in more and more tables. Soon tables represent a significant portion of the population, they start lobbying for new laws and regulations, putting people to greater and greater disadvantage...

Dwarf Fortress -- kind of like Minecraft, but for people who hate themselves.

Close, but not quite. Has to be 5/7/5. I count only 2 there.


Notification?
FB Coming Up Stairwell?
Should have used floor hatch.

Struck Adamantine!
A dwarf started digging it.
Shit. Novice miner.

What is this new thing?
A thrall? Caught the caravan?
Mad, steel clad undead.

Why is it haiku?
Why can't it be limericks?
I find them better

Now then, for limericks...

I am a drunken dwarf
I can and will always barf
I drink lots of booze
Then I go snooze
I die near things that sound like carf

"Yes! Adamantine!"
Cheered all the excited dwarves.
Then they dug too far.

Invaders approaching!
Somebody, pull the lever!

In nomine impetu Immortalis!

That phrase has eluded me for so long, I have it written down somewhere and I have no idea what it means, and even google fails me. Please, for the love of Armok, what does it mean?!

I don't know, I'm guessing "attack in the name of the gods" or something... I'm probably wrong. Google says "In the name of the attack area!" which can't be right.

I'm glad somebody noticed! It means, "In the name of the Immortal Onlaught!" It is the motto of the Order of Cacame Awenimade. Please join the order and sig it. (I used google translate, so...)

This is why it can't be limericks.
