I'm thinking of changing the thread title again, but what I have in mind wouldn't fit unless I removed the "the Battle-Cannon of Hell" part. So, should I try to find something that fits there without removing everything past Horrofailed or not?

You could maybe put it as: "HtBCoH (BATTLEFAILED 4) - The Really Long and Likely Cool and Humourous Phrase Which You Wish to Insert," or maybe change the acronym a bit so the name isn't totally lost.

On the "Battle-Cannon" note, I was thinking we rig a straight vertical staircase from an adamantine spire all the way to the surface.  Wait until the surface is full of Bad Things and then sacrifice a miner (sealed into the spire) to breach it.

Remember what happened last time? We've proven that we cannot pull this off.

Naturally, this idea has my full support.

And I know you won't have enough time to on your next turn alone. :P

Actually, I would.  At worst I'd have all the unfinished digging designations in place to let the dwarves continue following my designs while the next guy does his thing.

And naturally, the next overseer would see a large vertical shaft being dug and repurpose it into a convenient central staircase connecting the entire fortress.

And, the staircase itself would go directly through the most heavily-traveled areas of the fort.

I'm sorry, but I've been busy lately and I won't have time to play tomorrow and likely won't again until this weekend. If it's taking too long, feel free to move along without me.

If everyone is ok with it, I'll wait until monday before notifying the next player. That way you can have a chance to actually try to play your turn.
