Excuse the double post, but I figured out the problem with my last turn: I got wasted too fast. I think the trick is to start before you're drunk with the buzz so you can actually begin and gauge your pace, then get totally sauced before actually starting up fortress mode proper. I got a deal on a bunch of mixed drinks, draining a six pack of lynchburg lemonade now. I just feel bad about leaving things like this without actually finishing, so consider this part deux to my turn.

So, back to where we started. The draininage problem is a result of just dumping the entire brook into our fort with channels, so to fix it we have to create a huge resevoir to drain off the incoming brookwater and quickly build some floodgates on the topmost level.
I've got what few masons we have working on floodgates and all building projects are going to the the newly created Operation DigDug.
The good news is that the nobility's two-level rooms are already finished, now they just need smoothing and engraving before we put down all our furniture.
those walls are stupid uneven...great job, me. I'm great.
featured: our military of literally everybody wielding reed socks they stole from the half-mangled corpses not buried under a million water psi mopping up those pointy-ear tree humpers.
Aaand now they're chasing a mule I didn't even tell them to kill.
They spent a week chasing it and another week beating the hell out of it. Congrats, proud dwarves.
randomwyrm begins his mysterious construction.
The culmination of the deaths of most of the fort, the centerpiece of watery death, the fufillment of the darkest hour of the forts a fcking quern

I'm not mad, I'm just disappointed. I stick the quern in public where everybody can be ashamed of randomwyrm in public, like its mean(t) to be
