we demand forgotten beast blood.

[Alpha Loves You]

So, bluepheonix, have you finished your turn?

BuMp for more of this

we demand forgotten beast blood.

Sorry I can not satiate your thirst for blood, someone else will have to.

So, bluepheonix, have you finished your turn?

I have, I was only able to play till summer sadly as I was drowning in work these last few days.
I will upload it very soon, post a link and I'll write down everything I have done.

[Alpha Loves You]

Good job, qho's taking the next turn, because i'm up for it.

[bluephoenix]

I've got some problems with my internet at the moment, my house mates used all the internet data and I've reached the data cap.
I will not be able to upload the file just yet. I'll try to top up the data which might take a day so I'll keep you posted.

[bluephoenix]

For some reason the internet is still unbearably slow. If it is still like this 24 hours from now I'll go to a friends house and upload the file there.
Thanks for your patience guys.

If you can't get it online after that, try messaging me and we'll see how to handle this. MEGA is always an alternative

The things I have done in my time as the overseer.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

At first I was trying to familiarise myself with the (for me) unusual layout.
As soon as I began, the mayor was about to have someone arrested for his unmet mandate of the construction of 2 traction benches which I was able to fulfil just in time,
placed those in the hospital.
After 10 minutes of searching I was unable to find the craftsdwarf workshop (which turns out was in library) so built one in layer 10.
Saw 2 ghosts floating around so had some blank slabs engraved and set up in the cemetery to appease them.

Expanded the stair case a bit as it was just a one tile stair case all the way from the highest layer down to the lowest,
could cause problems down the line when we get more dwarves as it's already a bit of a bottle neck.

Increased the size of the animal pen to allow for more moss to grow and to stop some of the animals from attacking each other.

Built some proper bedrooms above the library in layer 8, the dwarves deserve to live in their own rooms instead of just one big dormitory.
Said dormitory has officially been turned into a dormitory (removed the room designations from the beds and turned it all into one dormitory).

Some migrants arrived, assigned them some professions and a few have been put in a new squad as they had some previous military experience.

Have built a hatch for the top of the main staircase.

Built a couple watch towers and a small wall outside near the entrance so we don't get any nasty surprises.

Turned off Auto loom and Auto collect webs.

A forgotten beast made of clear tourmaline came and killed the previous forgotten beast.

More migrants arrived. Assigned them some jobs.

So there you go I don't use DFhack or therapist so you might have to change some things on the new migrants to "mook" or whatever else therapist calls them haha.

The craftshop in the library was used to make all the quires.  there has to be one on L-10 with all the other workshops.  well i'm assuming thats where you put the new one so no problem.

having up/down stairwells horizontally adjacent to other up/down stairwells is known to cause pathing hiccups (lag is bad).

The DerpyTech Bedroom System is an amazing feat of dwarven science.  It has all of the advantages of a real dorm, with none of the downsides.  DerpyTech Bedroom System: A Better Life, Underground!  That being said, i guess its about time to care about the dwarves owning masterwork engravings, and for that they need walls in their bedrooms.

How did you place the hatch on the main stairwell when there's a retracting bridge on that space?  did the bridge get broken?  That's actually very very bad. 

who turn?  what's the turn order anywayway?  what year is it?  are you my mommy?

[Alpha Loves You]

If it's OK with everyone, I'd like to take the next turn, then it can be someone else's.
I'd actually like to play a full year this time without any warebears

I placed it one z level under the bridge, the same level the lever and refuse stockpile are on.

Save has been claimed, I'll try to finish it quickly

Breezing through 2 seasons, like a rebel:

2nd of limestone: There is a lot of doggo's. Like, a hundred of them. Let us feast on puppy meat tonight.
6th of limestone: Killed the last forgotten beast for the lulz. It went a bit like this:
16th of Limestone: Our... Goblin(?) ambassador for the Dwarven traders has arrived.....
I don't know how to feel about this...
22nd of Limestone: I've started work on the unfinished road that BluePheonix started (The watchtower is awesome btw) and bought some parchments for zazq to write some stuff on.
5th of Sandstone: This was just made by Miner Bebop:
16th of Sandstone: MIGRANTS!!! we got:
1 x Surgeon
1 x Shearer
1 x Trader
1 x Weaponsmith
1 x Ranger
1 x Gem cutter
1 x Strand Extractor
only 7 Dwarfs. Better then nothing I guess, total number is now 80
22nd of Sandstone: we're digging to the third cavern layer, because i'm making it my sort-of goal to tame some cool underground monsters and make a breeding colony of them. I'm planning on Jabberers but if I happen to make a cave dragon farm...
5th of Timber: Our new Ranger, Dobar, just murdered a rabbit via shooting it's left paw off. In other news, nothing's happening.
26th of timber: Dobar, has now wiped out a herd of horses. We now have plenty of meat as a result.
6th of moonstone:
Those R's are a herd of rutherers that have been trapped in that tree for years. Today, we kill them/capture them.
21st of Moonstone: I may have given our epic squad some cool nicknames. I was bored.
23rd of Moonstone: I guess my goal was finished as I now have all 6 Rutherers from the Rutherer Tree. Our Tree's bare strange fruit.
27th of Moonstone: A jabberer arrived and cut Farmer John to pieces. Thankfully our new squad got there in time to save him but a Jabberer was killed saving him 
1st of Opal: A metalsmith made an artefact iron pick but it's so uninteresting it isn't worth screenshotting
6th of Opal: Just realised Farmer John is a woman. Make of that what you will. In other news the rutherers are all trained and hopefully they will be making babies for us to turn fully tame.
2nd of Obsidian: Does having Forgotten Beast Soap constitute as having won the game? Because we have 4 of them.
15th of Obsidian: Dobar murdered a wild Rutherer. On one hand it was an amazing kill, on the other, a rutherer is dead. RIP

I'll finish the last 2 seasons tomorrow, who's playing after me?
