Dwarf Pictionary
« on: March 08, 2012, 12:20:46 pm »

Here is a game of Dwarven Pictionary. The object is to draw(in ascii) a dwarvenly object. Such as a pumpstack, spoilerite vein, etc. Multiple Z-Levels are permissible, if you clearly define each one. I'll go first.


Z 1
                 +++
                 +++
                 +++


Z 0             ņI

You have 24 hours until I improve this. Good luck!

It's a noble's suicide lever.  Try harder.

It could double as a building-destroyer trap.

But others might prefer to have the mess contained behind windows to avoid tracking blood all over the their nice, color coordinated floor patterns. Kind of the Ozzy Osborne vs. Martha Stewart debate.

If it were why there is a lever next to the support?


While noble execution machine is possible this could also be a system to give doctors more patients for learning healthcare. I don't think one single level of floor actually kills a dwarf. Or it's a system to force a patient, whose healing process was interrupted and thus bugged, to get another round in dwarven !!SCIENCE!! healthcare.

That's the point, it does both at the same time. For badass.

Nah, one layer of floor will invariably kill anything beneath it when it collapses. This is definitely a rig meant to kill.

I have no idea where anything is. I have no idea what anything does. This is not merely a madhouse designed by a madman, but a madhouse designed by many madmen, each with an intense hatred for the previous madman's unique flavour of madness.

Actually, a single layer of floor falling won't just kill, it atom smashes anything under it.  You can wipe out all of the HFS with one well placed floor tile.

You sure? Last time I built an obsidian rain machine, the crushed stuff showed up again after the block was dug out.

Think hard. Where would there be grass growing next to a suicide machine?

Because you like to give unruly nobles a dishonorable death above ground?
