That's what DF needs, The gutbuster brigade.  Screw that elf and his cat. Thibbledorf Pwent is the real hero.

I think what happened here involved dragonfire and an above ground stockpile.

That should be a new type of project, making a rug design in dwarf fortress (With accurate coloring)

exploding booze is a myth.  This looks like the old blood getting tracked around forever issue.  I think atm the init file lets you turn blood smearing off, but i think it is default enabled for other kinds of contaminants.

Considering its all over the snow, maybe they could just use spoons and have a nice inebriating slushie?

While adding magma to anything will make it dwarfy, adding the word "magma" to your post does not necessarily make it funny.

How many times have I done this?  Well, in all fairness, it's been out of an actual Frostee/Icee/Slushie machine, but close enough.

Then he made grudge wit about 20 other dwarfs (still don't know why - perhaps they were stealing his chair).

Heh, would be cool though if you embarked on a good biome and it started raining alcohol.

Someone SHOULD mod Elf blood to be win and beer. At the same time. Then we would get elf farm projects added where people found ways to force them to breed on your map, and we could use spear traps to harvest the blood.

It's all booze... it got tracked all over by my dwarves during a reclaim, as they scrambled around trying to pick up scattered iron bars....
