I started out with 2 shots vodka, chased with a SoBe Lifewater (gotta stay hydrated - and the b-vitamins are good for your brain!) I followed that with a White Russian (2 shots vodka, 1 Bailey's, 1 Kahlua) and, lightweight that I am, I am feeling AOK (in fact, I may have overdone it - where did that SoBe go again?)
I made myself a Manhattan (2 shots whiskey, 1 vermouth, dash of bitters) to keep myself going. (Finished the Mnhattan - started a berr and also a screwdriver ~1.5 shot vodka).)
I haven't actually gotten a chance to *read* this trhread, so everything in here will be a surptise. Here goes nothing...
Started 'early summer.' 29 idlers? No. Absolutely not. Let's look at the unit screen
i am so confused
Looks liek we don't have nay miners.
I drafted all the woodworkers to become miners. you're welcome. Actually it also looks like we don't have free beds. I let one woodworker make beds on repear instead.
Aha! There's a whole lot of nonsense items outsied. Let's bring that inside - that'll tkeep those slakers busy.
'dumbo' o1&2 have transformed into werelephant. That's... probably not good.
No wait, theyr'e locked up. Nevermine.
Some of our milirai are growing attached to iron gear.
I started spamming masterwork silver abttle axesand warhammers..
Some migrants have arrived during summer, despite the danger. It seems there's a tradition around the name 'shork,' so I named them all 'wintershork,' after the season they didn't arrive in.
12th galena: Dug an auxilary staircase to the lowest layer o the caversn./ Alos went diggin for diamonds but didn't find any.
Well... fuck.
I think it might be stat boost shoruken.
I added him to a burrow, and plan to wall him in. I t looks like we have planty of miliry twarws, so we're dogg. (Actually, his military skills are going rusty. We can't have that, so I let him free to practice with the rest of his squad! Hope he doesn't kill anyone valuable.)
a forgotten beast has come!
I guess now we'll see what our military is mad of... just as soom as we can dig a tunnel nearby.
We seem to have killed one of htose beasts. Nt entirely sure how, but we lost a handful of dewardw. (Edit: Found the opening, walled it off. They won't be getting in that way again!)
a strange mood! lucky us!
no-quality barrels are not worthy of Shovedmined, so I traded all of our booze and prepared meals to the carvan. Also all of our worn fclothing.
Another FB. And another~!
[mayor] has mandated the construction of spears. I'm... strangely comfortable with ths.
And ther goes the second FB.
Another FB arrived!
...and that's it. I played from mid-summer to mid-winter. Rather boring few months overall; had some exciting combat that apparently I missed entirely. Made a shiny bow and piccolo. Left my successor 3 forgotten beasts. Other htan that, though, everything's good: Plenty of booze and food, and I'm pretty sure I walled off all the entries to the caverns. Best of luck!
EDIT: And here's the save. Can't forget that!
