Take your time. As long as he gets buried I'm fine.
Why are you sorry? It's not like he died, because of you or anything... Right?

no I don't think it was my fault that you died specifically, but I probably could have been more careful. Anyway, about 1/4th of the dwarves are miserable. A few named dwarves are miserable, I will do everything I can to save them.

I must say they are gaining some punching skills.

EDIT: 17 are miserable
         11 are very unhappy
         4 are unhappy

Quick! we need to implement the Dwarven Battery Backup!.

Lock the least depressed dude in a 3x3 room with 3 years worth of food, booze, a bed, and a pickaxe. Then SEAL him shut with constructed walls. If all else fails, he is the sole survivor of a haunted fort...

Would go a bit larger than 3x3 just to have room for a mason's workshop. Once someone "goes missing", engrave their butt a slab so they don't come after him in the afterlife. Being haunted counts for a pretty harsh negative thought, not to mention that angry ghosts have been known to attack and even murder people, and are the only thing not stopped by walls.

Umm... I probably won't be able to update till christmas day or after. If you want me too I'll upload the save. Javier is ok as far as I know, but he might be a short slip away from insanity.

You are added to the overseer list, turn 12. Also, you are added to the dwarfing list, male, sworddwarf

Huzzah! We didn't die a painful death.

Bp? Do you mind moving me to after Javier?


Moved. Yeah, i wouldnt want to have to clean this mess up.

Ok, if this fortress does tantrum spiral into death, we can take the current list and move onto another fort (ive got a few we can use), try and reclaim this fort, or just restart from the end of rendel's turn. Let me know what you want to do.

PS. im sorry that i didnt get to installing an overflow mechanism to the well. i usually just design my wells so that they are IMPOSSIBLE to overflow or install a grate in the next corridor (along with several doors/floodgates that leads to a cistern or the caverns.

BTW, just so you know, the water coming from the far right is from a 2 level (or more, i didnt want to check any more) aquifer. Im currently tapping the top level (i believe, based on how far down aquifers usually are).

Oh, one final thought, id recommend installing a happiness generator in the fort (a 4x4 set of pumps, in a large square, with one tile of water in that, one level up from a main corridor (or hall). This generates the most amount of mist possible for the area and can be powered by one perpetual motion water wheel (dont need the other side).

Eew flowing water. FPS death here we come

Also I'm curious. You mentioned aquifer... is it an embark-wide aquifer or is it just in one biome segment? I need to know what kind of fluid-based dumbness I'm likely to drown in. If it gets that far

The aquifer is only located in a small area, so its not much to worry about.
