[Blade Master Model 42]

Sorry, but I'm going to have to back out of this turn.
University life has started for me and every day is hectic.

Hahah. Ahahahahah.  MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Oh, crap.

Well.

Well.

Quite.

I concur.

[wlerin]

Well. I guess that means I don't need to keep as many dwarves alive. Go me.

[ThatAussieGuy]

Well. I guess that means I don't need to keep as many dwarves alive. Go me.

I'd prefer it if you did.  I need labourers... For plans

[wlerin]

Spring is done (finally), nothing much has happened, though a few interesting possibilities for summer have presented themselves (hehehe).

And so far Slendy hasn't had any further outbursts.

I'll do a proper update tomorrow, and hopefully finish another season.

[ZanVaelius]

And so far Slendy hasn't had any further outbursts.

He's watching. Always watching. No eyes....

[kefkakrazy]

what's the Slenderman ghost's name?

I'm wondering if it's possible he's on the list but under a different name, possibly because of Dwarf Therapist reassigning his name. Check by last name.

Or not; I understand the memorial UI is a huge pain in the rear.

This should answer your question

He doesn't have a nickname. It's Bembul Adekiton (not sure about the first e). He doesn't show up in legends, but there are a lot of hidden historical figures, so that's not surprising. My guess is he was a caravan guard, tragically drowned when water was accidentally pumped into the trade depot.

I figure, if he kills one dwarf a season, we should have enough to survive till Anima's turn, and even beyond. So I won't runesmith him out. Yet. If he picks up the pace we might have to.

[I count eight adults above who had no signs of demon sickness at the start of my turn. Most of them are already in the hospital, those who aren't.... will be soon enough. Most of them still had clothes hanging to them in tatters, so my guess is that their boots have finally rotted off. If I could be bothered to check, they are probably all from the same immigrant wave.

I have at least 4 dwarves dedicated to caring for the sick (and even that may not be enough), so we have between 16 and 20 workers available, depending on what the marksdwarves are doing that particular month. Hopefully we don't lose anyone to this epidemic. Mind you, the sickness itself doesn't seem to be dangerous, at least to adults, but getting them food and drink in a timely manner has proven difficult. Oh wait, make that nine adults. One of the newly minted adult dwarves was already lying in the hospital when she came of age.]

[ThatAussieGuy]

How's that aqueduct project going?

[wlerin]

The mining is nearly complete, and I'm about halfway done with paving any open spaces on the route, so we shouldn't have any tree problems. Setting up a pressure-lock with floodgates and potentially pumps will take some more time. [Granted, the way it's designed right now, I don't actually need a pressure-lock, there are staggered walls on the bottom level that will reset pressure. I want a little more control over it, though. Plus there's the issue of getting the waterworks in the hospital to function, which may be out of my league, at least if I am to finish this in a reasonable amount of time.]

I might try to bring power from the BATTERY down to lower deathgate. Might. Gonna have to look at how feasible that is given what time I have left.


edit: Oh yeah, and there's a cute little FB hanging out by the entrance to the Areltulon (NCommander's aqueduct).
