Like I said, the first priority is to get the floodgate installed. After that, we can worry about supporting the tunnel and what we'll line it with.

Idea for pipe/support:

Basically, box with an X-shape inside to support the stuff above and still allow water to flow.

[V-Norrec]

Shade, did you get my last PM, it's not showing as it sent, but I'm pretty sure I sent something to you.

[Shade-o]

Just try resending it, whatever it was.

[V-Norrec]

"GOOD NEWS EVERYONE!  I've successfully hunted some food for the camp.  Bad News everyone, we have no butcher's tools to butcher the deer I slayed.  But good news, I found a trained horse."

[Samthere]

Yeah, we literally only have to dig out two squares and put a floodgate in place to take advantage of the river being frozen. We don't have to dig into the ice, even, we can just dig out next to it.

[V-Norrec]

yeah, but digging down in the ice would probably be our best bet for an easy time, I'm betting ice is easier to break than stone/dirt so, you know, probably wouldn't take nearly as long as the granite we've been trying to dig through.

[FuzzyZergling]

Easier than stone, harder than dirt, I'm guessing.

[Ochita]

00:00-06:00 Sleep
06:00-7:00 Have breakfast of worm paste and water
07:00-12:00 Carve some rock bowls, engrave them. Also make an Idol to my God, Kun.
12:00-13:00 Talk with Nirur (I'll send a PM, both of you.)
13:00-13:15 More worm paste, add wine if possible.
13:15-19:00 Mine out, going south
19:00-20:00 Entertain everyone with my tales (Learned FTW) have dinner of trail berrys with trail drink. Help Norrec with unloading.
20:00-22:00 Mine south again.
22:00-00:00 Sleep.

[V-Norrec]

I can tell you right now Ochita, I won't be making it back until 7 PM from my hunting expedition.  I'm bringing deer meat and a trained horse with me however.

Also, I believe we all agreed to go down to 2 rations a day.

[Ochita]

Well, I'm trying not to use the good stuff.

[CoughDrop]

Ration changes will occur on day 5, not day 4.

"Please don't say why each of you should get a third meal. If one person gets to eat a third, then everyone else will complain. We need to just work on getting food now so we won't have problems down the road."

[V-Norrec]

Well shoot, I only ate twice anyhow, just for you coughdrop.  Ahh well btw I'll need butcher tools tomorrow sometime if you don't mind samthere.

[V-Norrec]

Has anyone not submitted their schedule yet, my day was spent through hunting via PM.

[Shade-o]

Day 4

Norrec

After spending all day out hunting, Norrec eventually returned at night with a prize deer fawn and a stray horse. The horse seemed to have been the mount for a human scout, but the rider was nowhere to be found. Some orders and cheese were found in a bag tied to it. The deer was quickly covered in some snow. Exhausted and weak from being out all day and night in the freezing weather, Norrec handed off the horse and orders for Litast to deal with. There was also a possibility of romantic entanglements that night.

Lillipad

Mikhail continued to work diligently at the crossbow, but it was difficult carving it into the perfect shape without ruining it. Why did crossbows have to be so complex? He released some anger on the trees, but didn't cut anything down.

Hastur

Determined to strike off independently in an awesome manner, Sandow set to work with his golem on his own project. Next to the smoothed wall section he began digging into the granite, making a little hidey-hole. The granite was smashed to pieces by his overenthusiastic golem, though.

Coughdrop

After informing everybody that starting tomorrow they would be down to two rations a day, Litast realised that she had been eating nothing but lobster for so many days. Its fine taste and texture had lost all value to her, and was now no more delicious than a strip of rawhide. Her sanity took another hit, but she rallied with happy thoughts. She went off to mine, only to discover that some people were digging their own projects. Shem was mining the hallway, and Sandow had made up his own plans and was digging north. Resigned to fate, she joined in with Tholtig, Kog and Gar going south and extracted two lumps of stone from one unit.

Rolan7

Sneaking out early to harvest the forest, Adil was distressed to find that after a few days of picking, the area around the fort was almost stripped of edibles. Nonetheless, she managed to find four handfuls of berries and a pair of truffles. She secretly ate some berries in a shameful bout of hunger! Denrhymed purred approvingly at this rebellious display of power.

FuzzyZergling

Joining in with the others on the south tunnel, Kog broke stone with the rage of a thousand dwarf lords. He managed to extract two chunks from a single space.

Samthere

Gar worked hard all day, but only managed to help Tholtig in breaking down a rock. He made sure that she got all the credit, though.

Nirur Torir

Determined that there should be at least one sane person in camp, Kogan spent all day carving a floodgate out of granite. He even skipped lunch! Late that night he put the finishing polish on it, pleased at its skilful construction.

Ochita

In the morning, Urist dragged a boulder over and struck it into chunks, carving the best pieces into bowls. Though excellence was the aim, he very nearly shattered them and had to settle for plain stone. Later he dug steadily with the others, swapping out with them when they got exhausted. Though he personally didn't break any stone, he definitely contributed. That night he met with Norrec as she returned from hunting.

Dragonshardz

Developing something akin to tunnel vision, Shem once again spent all day at the mine, going straight forward despite Litast's pleas to dig south. He extracted a unit of granite.

IronyOwl

Getting the miner fever, Tholtig took to the stone with gusto, mining out alongside Litast. Miraculously she was able to break down a unit by herself, but reduced the stone to rubble. The night she sang a song about snow and spring, which was well timed since it was snowing on the last day of winter.
