This is a stupid, childish and ultimately vulgarly useless idea that will contribute nothing but meaningless numbers and impossible 3D fort design to the game.

Well, I already design my forts with alternate levels; every second level is a spacious working and living area, between and below them a maze of excess water overflow channels, maintenance shafts, temporary water cisterns and other random excavation, with floor grates at nearly every intersection and just behind every entrance to bedrooms providing for mud and liquids to drop off down there instead of spreading through the fort (... in theory; in practice, the current version has pools of blood forming on floor grates instead of falling down, so that part of the design doesn't work :(). If bodily waste was added, it wouldn't really change much for me. I'd probably just add a "water flushing" switch somewhere in the fort to flood those maintenance shafts with water; though it might wreak havoc with some of the random pet/thieves/wildlife populations which tends to form there over time.

I support this idea.
Only because I would hoard poop in a vast reservoir, then unleash it on incoming Elven ambushes in true Boatmurdered style.

The lands outside of my fortress will be covered in elephants covered in poop!

There's a difference between 'lol throwing' and 'UNLEASH THE FLOODWAVES URIST MCNONOSE'

But seriously now, sortof-infinite semi-liquid that would utterly destroy sieges by making the attackers get depressed and insane due to dwarven waste?
It's golden.
or, well, brownish gold.. forgive me, I am incredibly tired right now

Planting deer poop would grow random plants. Like seeds with a big "?" on them! It could be a raw tag for plant-eating animals.

And therefore, I wholeheartedly support it.

Only if it generates an invisible miasma when a dwarf drops one, though. And dwarves nearby, depending on what that dwarf had eaten, will get a varying amount of displeasure from it. Possibly have a personality trait of "depravity" that enjoys the smell.

That is all.

Also, the invisible miasma should be flammable / explosive.

Remember, didn't Toady say there will be sewage?

I present just as much supporting evidence as you. Watch this.

Remember, didn't Toady say there will be elf-dwarf love and marriage?

Remember, didn't Toady say there will be dwarven civilizations with shaved beards and temperance?

Remember, didn't Toady say there will be sewage added if he could find a way to make it fun?

Its amazing what lies you can spread using rhetorical tricks.
