I mentioned somewhere else, I just had one of the hateful little furballs open a maintenance door and unleash magma throughout a floor in my fort.  Didn't even have the decency to DIE; evading all damage.  Tragically, a mule was set on fire, which then ran through the fort spreading fire to animals and dwarves.  It was a near fortress ending event; I ultimately had to flood several levels just to get the fire out and stop the smoke rising up my stairs and killing everything.  Fraking cats.

When I found out Dwarves automatically claimed bedrooms. So much time wasted painstakingly assigning each dwarf to a bedroom. . .

WHAT
*epic facepalm*

[werty892]

Being a noob today I finally figured out how to dump stones... I was facepalming and crying at the beauty of my Dwarves getting rid of rocks at the same time

When I found out that you can build walls more than one at a time...

 
 Actually, I do know that, I just wanted to here the facepalms of newbs who don't.

This just happened. I had a bunch of goblins that fell into a pit from retracting a bridge during a siege - probably ten and an axe lord. I told my rangers to station nearby to finish them off. The captain was standing still near the bridge for a good minute or two. I hit the switch and THATS when he decided to walk across, maybe to grab some arrows even though I gave him orders. He fell down, and quickly slaughtered. I just screamed. Fucking retarded.

I watched my fps with horror. Then someone mentioned large designations cause a big drop in fps. Ah, so that's why. I undesignated 3 levels from clearcutting and now I'm seeing my fps climb up as the fourth level is being cut by the industrious little buggers.

Not as bad as when I found out that you can designate more than one block to be dug when I was a newb.

Not necessarily. Gotta make sure you waste it assiging them to dwraves who hate the vermin engraved on the walls and floors. Bonus if it's mayor.

Had a mass-pit filled with war dogs, dumped an unarmed goblin into it... forgot to lock the door at the bottom, he almost escaped the fort too....

Not to mention that Dwarfs seem to have a crazy sleeping pattern and as such I'm not sure if I have enough rooms for all the Dwarfs as there are both dozens of empty rooms and dozens of room-less Dwarfs.

Just embarked in a new world today to test some changes I had made, ended up getting a waterfall despite the game telling me the area was flat.  Anyways, this tiny waterfall, only about 3 or 4 wide had become the bane of all living creatures existence, claiming one of my cats, a giant weasel, and about 10 coati men.  Then, my second migrant wave showed up on the opposite side of the waterfall from my fort, and I hadn't finished the bridge yet, and, being dwarves, they decided that taking the short route through the slow moving water was for elves and other lesser creatures and took the long route directly over the very edge of the water fall.  Naturally, they all broke most of their limbs in the 10-z level fall, only to survive and have their throats literally torn out by the equally maimed, but somehow still alive, coati men. -_-

I wouldn't mind things like this so much if only the game didn't assume that they were YOUR, the player's, fault.

[Garath]

It IS your fault!

[xdarkcodex]

Exactly, you could had dammed up that waterfall. As boss of the establishment it is your duty to make sure there's no health hazards anywhere, your lucky the health inspector isn't coming to your fortress this year... or the next, he has mysteriously disappeared centuries ago.
