Beware those who kill off Soap-makers!
« on: October 16, 2008, 02:47:31 pm »

We have grossly misinterpreted the will of Armok.  The ancient scrolls do not say "Blood for the Blood God" instead, the correct interpretation of the ancient runes is "Suds for the Sud God!"  Those soapers who were so useless and were shipped out to every fledgling fortress in the world are in fact holy priests.

MUAHAHAHAHA!!!


On a more serious matter, I think I might try my hand at making an above-ground fortress completely out of soap and then make water run through it.  Shouldn't be too hard, right?

You'd have the cleanest dwarves in the kingdom. So clean, they might be mistaken for elves, so be careful.

If you get confused, look for the beards(assuming they don't wash out) and the [DAMBLOCK] tags.

No, this would be terrible!  Besides ending up with miles upon miles of muddy soap floors, all your dwarves would dissolve.  Since, as every elf knows, dwarves are made of dirt.

It has started raining.

3 minutes later.

Your fortress has crumbled to its end.

And thus did the dream of dwarven antigravity fade away, not with a massive explosion or a flood of magma, but with a whimper.

I'm going to be depressed all day now.

hang on, that cant be right. lets loock at the FACTS!

1) you butcher animals for fat, which is then cooked into tallow. (mmmm tallow)
2) you cut trees, and BURN the logs to ash.
3) you put the ash in the tallow, so that food becomes.... blocks. that never rot, and that can make walls and towers.

so, wood+meat= soap! so, its sort of symbolic of all my spiked wooden ball traps.
Soap has its very source in the blood of your forts animals. kitten soap for armok!

Yeah, it's an ancient practice that men gave up years ago, round about the time they learned new "art forms" of farting over a naked flame and scratching their testicles in public ::)

Nitpicking: phenomenon. "Phenomena" is the plural form ;)

There are three things I know about dwarves:
1. They've got beards. Even the women.
2. They're short. Especially the women.
3. They're Scottish.

I apologize for spelling "Phenomena" instead of "Phenomenon".

I shall now perform ritual seppuku to make up for the dishonour!
