I'm still interested, although I'm not actively playing anymore. Guess, I'll have to start again. xD

Well, Balor didn't show in time.  Up next is Maggarg.  This person has already responded to the previous message, so hopefully they are good to play.  Good luck!

The link to the save won't work, it just shows me an error message from DFFD.
I hope that this is just a temporary problem with the depot.
God knows how I'll manage this and abbeyverse.

The whole DFFD site is down.  I guess give him a while to fix it.

Edit:  Works now.  Go to it!

The Diary of Odd Oddom
1st granite
I was happily walking down a corridor backwards yesterday,
conversing with the voices in my head (not aloud, silly, that would be
weird. Rakust the wambler tells me this.)
Anyway, I bumped into someone, which is odd, because normally
the voices tell me if I'm going to.
I turned around, and a harassed looking dwarf tells me I'm the leader.
I was so surprised that I began rotating on the spot and barking like a
fly does(they do it very quietly) The voices do this to me whenever they need
to discuss things. They're very democratic, apart from one that sounds like a
big fat man. He says that it is his duty as king to tell me what to do.
Anyway, they said it might be fun, and they let me have all of today to
look around the fortress.
This will be FUN.
At least, the big toad tells me so.

2nd granite
Today is a very sad day. The voices are all waily now because they say
this place is insane. I asked them how they could possibly have an
opinion on insanity, being symptoms manifested of my own mental state.
They told me to be quiet and eat my greens.
I said that actually they are purple, and there are no barrels so they're
all nasty and wrinkly.
They weren't very helpful, so I decided to tell people to make more barrels.
Eventually the carpenters worked my order out. (I forgot to tell them
that I'm still doing everything backwards.)

5th granite
They say there are no fishies left in the swamp. That is very sad.
I like the way fishies swim around in tanks and ponds.
Unless they are nasty chomping fish, like the one that ate
Grandad.
They tell me that they were that kind of fish.
They may have lied.

Haha, as if the Eternal Halls needed more half insane rulers.

Hell, this might be a step up.

At least this one's honestly insane, as compared to those who tried to pass themselves off as sane. That is what resulted in this mess. After all, if we had  known that they were insane then we would not have made them the leaders, and we would not have this colossal mess.

Once tried to conquer Earth, and succeeded! Too bad it got really, really boring, really, really fast.

One day, we shall all look back on this, and laugh. Sorry about the face, by the way, and the legs, and the eyes, and the arms. In fact, sorry 'bout the whole body.

8th granite
The voices are saying that their time is slowing down a lot.
I asked them how this could happen, because time is the same for me.
They said it was something to do with all the adorable likkle horseys
and doggies.
I asked how I could stop them slowing things down.
They told me to turn all of them into roast nin-nins.
Now my hands hurt after signing all of those bits of paper that
let people magic the animals into food.
I'm still not sure how that works.

9th etinarg
Apparently it is a normal thing for rulers here to dig out
huge rooms for them to live in when they are dead.
I don't know why they need a room to live in when they have stopped
living. Some of these rooms are VERY big.
The voices say that mine must be the biggest.
Well, some of them do. They are very democratic and often don't agree.
They never let me decide though, probably because I'm not very good at that.

10th granite
I found a huge hole in the ground full of very hot sticky water.
I dropped a cat in it to see if it could swim.
It can't swim, but it can yowl and set on fire.
It wasn't very much fun, and now it smells bad.

11th granite
I always wanted to be buried in a cave, so I'm going to secretly make one.
I mustn't tell the voices or they'll laugh.
I was talking to a dwarf with an awfully large chin today.
His name is Aquizzar, and he was a ruler here some years ago.
I think he was quite good at it, although my memory grows weak sometimes.
He's the one with the gigantinourmous tomb.
There's another dwarf here. He's got a very odd way of styling his hair.
It's a sort of squiggly thing on the top.
He's called Dadam, and he often talks about the way
this place is a vault for all eternity.
He has a nice tomb as well.
Not as nice as mine will be though.
har har har.

12th granite
It looks like I already have a tomb dug out for me.
I'll just smooth and engrave all the walls.
It's a bit muddy, but I kind of like the effect of all the big
mushrooms.
I love that word. Some of the voices do too.

13th granite
I'm not doing anything today.
Unlucky. Most of the voices are being quiet so I don't do anything
silly, but some of the mean ones are telling me to go hang-gliding or
swimming with iron underpants.
Oh, and an elf arrived.
Truly this is an unlucky day.
Oh, and the year is 113.
I'm going to put my *aluminium foil hat* on.

14th granite
Eek! a beetle!
Oh, and there are some goblins outside. I think they want a party.
I'd let them in, but they have such a bad reputation for getting
over-excited and killing people.
Oh, and there's a paedophile goblin being attacked by a cat.
I let Dadam use his axe on them.
More goblins appeared and are joining the party.
They are being very naughty and breaking dadam's legs.
I am letting Aquizzar attack now. He's very scary, because he starts
flashing blue when he gets angry.

15th granite
GRAGH, BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD!
ODDOM IS SILENT! NOW TIME FOR GRAGH TO CONTROL!
ELVES AND GREENSKINS ARE HERE.
GRAGH WILL KILL.
nasty gragh is gone.
Aquizzar went out and batted the goblins away.
A long way away.
Oh no!
Dadam is dead! He was such a nice dwarf and a very good engraver.
And he was our broker and appraiser.
I think I may have done a silly.

16th granite
I blamed Dadam's death on communists, and that seemed to satisfy his friends.
My tomb is nearly half-way finished.
It looks very good.
I made me into the broker and hoardmaster.
I'm actually quite good with numbers. Well, not me personally, but a voice
called Gizmo Steampaddles is. He used to be something called a mathematician
in a city made of brass.
He's very good at numbers. Scarily good. He often talks in them.
I reply backwards.

How in the hell did Dadam die?  After all those years Engraving, Trading, and counting seeds, he's like, made of steel.

I guess that makes me the fortress longest surviving resident then.  Wonder how long that'll last...

I can't imagine how long you're going to take to finish a year writing an entry one dwarf day at a time.  Unless the dates are superfluous and you're actually a lot farther along.

Bawww I died.  Well ok.

Yeah, I have to agree with Aqizzar there, updating every day has got to be a pain.

Dadam died when three goblin ambushes teleported on top of him and broke all his limbs.
I update every day because interesting things happened every day.
