Yes!

No!

I am small and neutral, like Switzerland

[Brewster]

Just awesome. 

[Scruffy]

made a bigger rfuse pile.

The answer to every problem a fort can have. How dwarfy.

Edit: Just realized that this is our longest living fort thus far.

And what is it with this fort and buzzards? Every darn turn we complain of buzzards circling the fort or ravens and giant birds annoying the dorfs.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

5th Obsidian
-Buzzards! Half a dozen of buzards circling aboe the fort!
15th felshite
-Hunter got kileld by a peachfaces lovebird. idiot.,

"galena Buzzards" so likely happened in Galena. Buzzards and kobolds were scaring the dorfs and killing the pets.

I see some Ravens, with much luck there will be no trouble.

GODDAMINT!§ THE BIZZARDAS JAVE CP;E NACL!

THE HUICCADRS! THE BUZZARDS HAFE COME BACK!"

I think that there were other incidents with buzzard too.

Woah, the old fort is total ruin. By the way, you pulled that lever in the dining room, didn't you?
Oh, and did a single cave crawler kill nearly a dozen dwarves? Epic
Also, so many dead FBs and crundles. We should rename this into !!crundle fortress!!
Truly a great turn.

[Aklyon]

Seriusly, there are too many pimp operators in this foress.

Our fortress is cool, yo. Or something like that.

Whose still alive to see the addy?

[Bobnova]

Holy hell that was epic. lol

Well played.
Also, congratulations on getting us further than we've ever been before!
And on surviving a year of DF that took >9 hours.

[AustralianWinter]

Oh my god. I am completely incomprehensible. I want to profoundly apologise for this mess - just considering the enormous amounts of Danish letters in that mess makes me embarassed. I have a lot of screenshots, all named in a similar nonsensical manner. I have no idea if they relate at all to journal, I will be posting them when I get home.

Alright, I feel a bit of clarification might be a good idea, following this mad raving I gave you yesterday. (My god am I hungover).

I started drinking, was completely confused by the fortress, and drank some more. At this point, I wasn't really that drunk, but then a friend of mine (Trifle, you might know him) decided to come by, bringing another bottle of vodka. By then, my playing style detoriated completely, and I was drunk out of my mind.

Trifle, who had also been drinking but did not possess a drunkenness to match mine (after all, I had been drinking for three or four hours, while he had just begun), took over the journal writing. Hence the passage about the "new guy guy". Goddamnit, that journal is a mess. We had two giant migrant waves - this is the ONLY REASON we survived, because I sure as hell was not helping in any way. Also, three forgotten beasts or somesuch invaded, along with a troll, a sea of crundles, and kobolds and goblins in rapid succesion.

The only thing I could manage at this point, was to recruit every last dwarf into the military, and have them beat up the invaders with their bare fists. I think this accounts for a lot of the very unfortunate deaths. I think there is a tantrum spiral going, too. No one is very happy, that's for sure.

The other half of the dead dwarves was because of thirst. We have a lot of booze (which is appropriate, I guess), so I think they died because no one could take are of them, what with all the forgotten beasts eating everyone.

Again, I really want to apologise for the complete and utter chaos, I managed to produce. Sorry about the incomprehensible journals. So sorry.

[Kamin]

Are you crazy?! What in the world are you apologizing for?! This... is... !!DRUNK FORTRESS!!

But seriously, this is what we aim for. Stop being sorry and prepare your alcohol stocks for the next round--that was brilliant.

[AustralianWinter]

My full journey:

14:29 - poured my first beer, downloaded the save. Will be drinking a couple of beers, before I start the game.

I have 18 cans of really bad beer, a flask of horrible applejack, which I will mix with some kind of soft drink. I also have some vodka, which I might shoot, at some point, to celebrate great things that happens to our fortress.

14:35 - These beers are seriously bad. Still drinking them. I should have bought something better.

15:17 - Two beers down. Taking a shot to speed things along.

15:52 - Two and a half beers, three shots. I can feel the alcohol by now. The beers are beginning to taste better too.

15:55 - tripped over a shot-glass. Yeah, I'm dfinitely not sober anymore, despite my spelling being allright, I guess.

16:00 - Finished beer. Iopening another. Have no idea if everyonebdy is dwarfed. Taste in music getting shitteir byu the minute. Woææ beign DF after this eer.

16:"8 - opening another beer - not i'm going in.

1st of Granite

Okay, only Sparkl Horses and Chinglish are dwarfed. I'm going to have a sip of beer, and theyn I'll dwarf everyone.

My beer hates me, seriously.

Have no idea about genders at all. really. Dwarf therapist does not agree with df itself. wtf.

[Ruhn]

Kudos to AustralianWinter! 

8 Dwarfs, that's better than if we were doing a reclaim!
It will be a good start for the next leader-drunk.

If we still have control of the south fort, I strongly suggest lots of hatch covers so we can lock off caverns for a while.

[AutomataKittay]

Just posting here to say I'm enjoying this thread very much

May all of y'all's liver stay stiff and proud!

[Korbac]

May be having a go of this on the weekend!

[Bobnova]

Do it!
I'm penciling in a session for myself on Wednesday next week, we'll see how that plan goes though.

[Trifle]

"New guy guy" here. Taking part in a Drunk Fortress on a monday was probably the best worst idea I've had in a while. Part way through the night, I got a bad east-european accent, which I blame on the vodka, but it was part of the experience. A word of advice to whoever takes over the fortress. I'm fairly sure that by the time we reached the end of the year, the dwarves were dying rapidly from various sources, not to account for them going mad. The alcohol seems to be in an unreachable part of the fort, so either try to locate and retrieve it, or set up a farm. I'm not sure if that should be your first priority though. I'm fairly sure I remember a kobold raiding party clearing all the dwarves in the entrance, so I'm not sure if they got taken care of, or if they're on their way methodically down the stairs. So, good luck to whomever takes the fate of these poor dwarves on their shoulders.

Also, pimp operators are most likely my favorite kind of operator.

[Scruffy]

I checked the save:
There should still be some farms and plants in the underground bunker. (can't be seen atm. behind the 2 closed gates between the caverns) Also, none of the surviving dwarves have mining/farming/brewing/cooking/masonry/what ever assigned.
We lost our dining hall (but gained a nice little hole) and some rather nasty stuff will soon crawl our of the deeper caverns. (I got a bunch of blind cave trolls)
Also, even after killing 4 FBs there seem to be 2 remaining (one can't be seen at the moment).
Lastly, perhaps someone should seal or secure the new stairway that bypasses all the old bridges. Currently anything can just walk in.

Well, it will be more intesting if the next players ignore this

[Kamin]

Armok bless !!DRUNK FORTRESS!!.

"New guy guy" here. Taking part in a Drunk Fortress on a monday was probably the best worst idea I've had in a while.

I know the feeling! 

Also, pimp operators are most likely my favorite kind of operator.

+1 !

If the next drunk is brave, perhaps there is a way to survive in the main south fort.
If the next drunk is ambitious, resume work on the sky city.
If the next drunk is cautious, flee to the north fort's safety.
If the next drunk is adventerous, find the bomb shelter Clover built.

Kamin, I think you are overdue for a turn???  DRINK
