Tradanbattlan has become a legendary telepath.


And the rest of the dwarfs are coming by this weekend?

So my boss decided at the last minute to change pretty much everything about the software we're building.  I have to rewrite the core of this bullshit that took me three weeks to write...and I have to have it done by Monday morning.

The fuck. Does he have two separate mini-pyramids of hair. That could be the problem.

ouch.  We understand if you can't update for awhile.  Your lively-hood should have higher priority than our entertainment.

Just make sure your completed work doesn't end up with spikes of Boss human bone.

I made a fortress which I was going to put up as a succession.

The RNG named it Blockedlances.

Damn. I'll emphasise the S when I put up the thread.

Well....I got good news and I got bad news.

The good news is Ill have more free time.

The bad news is Ive been taken off this project for work.

:/

He says he needs it done in 48-72 hours (wtf?) and he needs someone with more experience.  Well gee....maybe if you would have given me the forms I needed from day one, we couldve done this.  But no, I didnt get the forms until three weeks in, and then I had three days to rewrite the entire site.

Ive been rushing as fast as I could, pumping out 3-4 thousand lines of code a day.  But now its all buggy (because thats what happens when you slop together 10,000+ lines of in a few days) so hes mad.

Its not like its so buggy that I couldnt fix it....its just buggy enough to make him look bad.  The project was late before he even hired me to work on it.  So I dont see how I am the one that made him look bad....if anything, he made ME look bad by not giving me the damn instructions for the site until last week.

Sigh....

Like I said, I have more free time.......but I dont think Im in a good enough mood to torture dwarves.

You hate WMG muting videos on YouTube?

I do too.

I, on the other hand, have forced them to give me back my sound.

Just a loophole that I exploited.

A Christmas themed update to the Blockedlance saga would be great. Something about offering horrible things to your fellow Armok worshippers...Or maybe a gift from the god of blood himself, everybody silently waiting, their pig tail socks hanged at the entrance of the pit.

I propose a truly dorfy solution: toady should implement a special helmet that (mostly) protects against fall damage, so that the toughest dwarves of the fortress can take the 10-z level jump down, pick and axe in hand, and construct stairs back up to the upper levels.
