24... hours. What's your fps down to now?

[Martin]

Well, with the orcs gone its back up into the mid-high single digits. We're just flying along here.

[Majorlag]

He defeats orc sieges without breaking a sweat.
He has created more wealth than the rest of his civilization combined.
He once got a yellow wound just to see how it would feel.
He is Morul, the most interesting dwarf in the world.

There is fanart here just waiting to be drawn!

I was expecting Burma Shave.

Have you tried lowering your GFPS cap in the init.txt? That usually helps when my FPS starts to die.

[Martin]

Oh, yeah.

Keep in mind the fortress is 60 years old, there are almost 800 animals (in cages and pens), 35,000 ammo, and a similar amount of stone. 6,000 thread, 7,000 bars, 15,000 blocks. A massive magma moat and now a flooding hunting area. There's a brook, an underground river, a chasm.

It all adds up.

[Argonnek]

I would personally suggest atom-smashing unwanted stone and animals, as they tend to get in the way of anything constructive.

[Martin]

I had a tantrum spiral and wiped out half the population. Doesn't that count for anything?

[Martin]

The underground hunting area is now flooded. I may have used too much water. 8 embark tiles under 3/4 water with only a 3 tile wide drain into the chasm. This might take a while...

Morul is still Talented Swordwarf. Waiting for the next siege.

This picture is what made me play dwarf fortress, just saying.

[Sensei]

That's no longer hosted there, methinks.

[Martin]

Excellent. (copy/paste the link)

Yeah, Morul has never quite repeated that feat. He's gotten 40 tiles a number of times, but then he hasn't had a blunt weapon in ages.

[expwnent]

What are Morul's attributes at these days?

Is that on a trope?

I think it was/is linked to from the DF article. That or Memetic Badass. Or both.
