This fort is horrible.

And its horribleness is glorious.

[Deviled]

This fort is horrible.

And its horribleness is glorious.

It has a PhD in horribleness.

Journal of Dariush The Third, Early Winter of 527.
So, it was a year since I've picked up the overseer duties over here. Tradition says that every overseer must give up his position after twelve months. However, Queen's orders say that every overseer must give up his duties on 1st Hematite. Thus, fuck tradition.

The trade entrance construction is stalled. No cage traps were constructed because of lack of mechanisms. Simultaneously, almost 20 dwarves at any given moment were idle. Enraged, I gave them all orders to build mechanisms. That didn't do anything. (how did you guess?...) I stormed off to mechanic's workshops. Or rather tried to.


Looking back over reports, it appears that some ghost toppled some door. What report didn't specify was that this was the door to the fucking aquifer.

This place is oh so fucked up.

Whoever built this, my plea to thou:
WHY?!

blablabla

I'm too lazy to write in-character (or at all), so here's a quick summary:
Entrance sign - finished;
Door Monument (above courtyard) - partly finished;
Pumpstack (Shift+F2) - pumps themself finished on 2/3 (though building the topmost one that faces the cavern would be difficult), space for future axles is being dug out;
Trade Entrance (to the east of courtyard) - supports and walls are finished, only cages and links remain. PLEASE read instructions on the water before doing anything with it!
Fractal bedroom (Shift+F3) - fully dug out, halfway smoothed, one-fourth of beds are finished;
Squad training must be reviewed and fixed (I tried to, but failed miserably );
I produced lots of armor and bronze axes, so more squads are welcome;
The central stairway is flooded on five levels out of six. I forbade all doors and built other ways, but if someone could close the leak in topmost chamber, it would be awesome.
Have Fun!

[Andreus]

I would like to request...

A spot on the turn roster.

[Mekboy]

Oh.

That door.

Yeah, I was digging and suddenly, damp rock.
So in an effort to find out what it was, I dug a ramp.
Water everywhere.
I did hook up a lever to those doors, but the lever seems to have been removed. Still, this makes it totally worth it.

That is the most amusing DF event I've seen a long time.

[Urist Imiknorris]

Oh.

That door.

A succinct summation of the fort as a whole.

Priceless!

[Megaman3321]

If no one objects, I'd like to do a bit of screenie-making with Ogreseer. Let's see if this fort becomes more mesed up in THREEDEEE!

[Urist Imiknorris]

DO EET

[Dariush]

According to mrbobbyg's profile, he hasn't been active for almost a month. Maybe we should go ahead and skip him?..

[Urist Imiknorris]

A month? Yeah, okay. PM'd Oglokoog.

[Dariush]

Aaand the first thing anyone entering Failcannon sees is...

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

[Megaman3321]

Hmmm... so Overseer doesn't support displaying buildings yet. Failcannon should be fun to navigate.

[Mekboy]

Yep, I think that pretty much sums up Battlefailed.
