Okay I've got a sammich and now I'm getting drunk on
roob beer!!! (bite me my tummy is sick)
Also I meant root* beer
WHOA you can zoom in/out of Dwqarf Fortress by mouse-scrolling? I never use the mouse for DF so I ddin't even know that until just now
Did I mention these guys won't shut up about not butchering things and it's starting to piss me off?
Well, I guess if these scrubs have something important to say there's a good chance I'll miss it. Dumbasses deserve it.
...All of the coffins were claimed super fast and there's still dorf corpses, so I told the manager to tell the dorfs to build 60 more. THen I realized there wasn't a managed, so I was like "hey you you're the manager now"
Why doesn't f1 point at the gate anymore, that's weird.
Someone got possessed and took over a magma forge, which is cool, but now I forget where I put the new maga- fuck. Manager's* table. Looks like the artifact is gonna be lame, too, it's only made of 1 zinc bar and nothing else.
IS EVERY SINGLE ONE OF YOU A BUTCHER OR WHAT?!? goddamn. There brewer, the miner, the militia captain, they all want to butcher things and they whine and bitch every second they aren't.
Also, never mind about that artifact being lame. It's a Zinc War Hammer. A
spiked war hammer. That's actually kind of cool. Assuming the spikes are on the hammer part and not the handle part or something stupid like that.
I'd tell you how much this hammer is worth but I don't know because our appraiser doesn't appraise
shit.
And I seriously have lost this table. I don't know where it went. I thought it was right around the main staircase just above ground level but it's not, so I don't know.
Nobody was getting around to building that bridge, even though all the masons were also architects (like they
should have been, holy shit a scrap of sanity), so now all the miners are architects too. Hopefully that doesn't interrupt operations much in the future. But who would need to mine things and also construct things at the same time? Oh wait... I've done that... oh well I'm sure it will be no big deal. After all, I'm writing what I've done here, so I'm sure future Overseers will know what's up when the mining isn't getting done.
...Unless they're like me and didn't read more than 12 posts of the thread, in which case I'm going to burn in hell for hypocrisy. Oh well
These weird clouds have terrible aim. "oh noez, that little patch of dirt over there got a cloud to the face. Whatever shall we do~"
My sammich is almost done and my tummy doesn't feel as sick, so it's time for more Creme de Menthe. 15% alcohol per volume unit on this stuff. Tougher than (North American) beer (which I don't drink), but not nearly as tough as that Vodka was. 40% alcohol for the Vodka. Whew.
I like how two shots of Creme de Menthe mixed with a whole can of Barqs is dark green instead of brown. Funny how that works.
It's a good sign when you spill the first sip of a new drink on yourself. It was just a few drops, but... hmmm.
Anyway, that bridge
still isn't friggin' getting built, so I made all the craftsdwarfves into Architects as well. And I made one of them into a
Mason mechanic, too, because we just do not need a dedicated potter. Fuck pots. Pots suck.
Man who the hell was our HR person? We have a wax worker who works wax (sure she does), chops trees, tans hides, and designs buildings, except when she
doesn't because she is a
lazy fuck just like all the other architects.
Hey, sweet, I found that table again. Now the manager can go manage something. Apparently the table was a few levels below the magma stuff, not above it. That's why I was confused earlier.
I just realized those slabs I told the Dwarves to make didn't get made because the workshops I assigned them to be made in are outside, and the Dwarves aren't. Dumbasses. Guess I'll use one of the
other Craftsdwarves workshops. How many of those do we have, anyway?
*checks* Nine. Four of which are outside. Fun, fun, fun.
Hey, Creme de Menthe tastes kinda vaguely like mouth wash. I wonder if it would make good mouth wash. In hopefully unrelated news, the Elves are here to trade, and they're disappointed because
nobody has built that fucking bridge yet. Nobody has finished hollowing out that little space I was going to put the Trade Depot in, either. The miners are all too busy not digging to go dig, apparently. They aren't doing anything else, so... I don't get it.
The manager hasn't gotten around to telling the others to make coffins yet because she's too busy doing stonework. Apparently the Ranger had absolutely no jobs assigned (not even "haul stuff"), so now he's the manager. That'll learn 'im to out-lazy me. I'm a university student on holidays! Nobody out-lazies me and gets away with it, except maybe other university students!
The Elven traders got ambushed by goblins with hammers. Oh no, whatever shall we do without their keen wit and their haughty demeanor and their general douchebaggery. BETTER, is what we'll do. We'll do better without them. Nyeh.
...Wait what? The Goblins left without attacking. That's slightly unnerving. There are no reports of recent combat, there are no goblin hammermen on the map, I don't get it. Are they scared of the Elves, or in league with them?
Oh, and apparently someone made the whole fort into a burrow, so that's why the Trade Depot and bridge weren't being build. I have half a mind to just delete that burrow.
...Maybe that's a bad idea. For now, I'll just expand it so that work can get done on my immediate projects. At the very least, I want to rob the Elves blind. (Who the hell would trade with Elves?)
Hey, some kid toppled a statue. If he wasn't a ghost I'd give him what-for. As it is, I'm just gonna give him a memorial slab instead. SUCK EXCORCISM, BITCH!
It's summer now!
