Due to factors which were not too predictable I am not able to finish my turn nor put up the save. At best I can get it up on Tuesday.

Agh, how I hate fate. Sorry guys.  :(

Have it up before Tuesday midnight or I'll be forced to do a Syrupleaf-style time reset conspiracy thingy.

All right, I'll get started tomorrow. Well, probably tomorrow.

1st Granite, 253
"Hey, you, bookie."

"Hm?"

"You've been elected as fortress overlord for the year."

"Funny, I don't recall running for the position..."

"Lucky for you, that ain't a requirement."

"Isn't. 'Ain't' is first-person... never mind. What needs to be done?"


Well-laid traps, to be sure, but any enemy aware of their existence can weave through them effortlessly. I'd think that we can bypass our own traps safely.


I don't know what this room is for...


Oh.

Well.

Let's look a little deeper, shall we?


There's the refuse stockpile. Certainly, a quadruple airlock will keep miasma in, but doesn't diagonal access work even more effectively?


A standard exploratory mining setup. One of the less efficient but more thorough ones.


Oh? And what have we here?


It branches off further. Let's see what's behind the door, then...


Oh.

Oh dear.


... Actually, that's not that bad. All we'd really need to do would be to build a ceiling and block off the water somehow.

Guess I found my first project as overseer.

But let's not get ahead of ourselves. Looking still deeper, we find...


Still more exploratory mining. I'll let them keep doing that.

A few more similar branches and then the shaft ends.

Well. Let us get going, shall we?

Hey dude, give me an engraved room.
The only reason, in the description, is because I threatened you with my axe.

In the DF I know, there's only one kind of light blue ore, and it doesn't occur in veins.

Just what is the light blue ore in those screenshots?

( Just cobaltite, probably. I'm using a slightly modified color scheme, the best way to compare is to look at my z-status screen. )

19th Granite
Olm men.

Or rather, olm man, since it's just the one.

1st Slate
Rentorian has been possessed by forces unknown!

... Wait, that's it, he just took one rock and that's all?

... Well, it is a possession, and he is a stone crafter. I guess he's just being kind and not wasting materials on a useless mood.

6th Slate

... Okay?

7th Slate
Migrants.

10th Slate
We've finished walling off the cavern island. Now only flying enemies can get in that way.

14th Felsite
Elves. wooooo

19th Felsite
Goblins, too. They're harassing our animals. Because.......... ?

Summer has arrived on the calendar.

22nd Hematite
I'll be expanding our defense system soon. I'll just need 13 terrible weapons and 210 good ones. Or okay ones, really.

Ah, okay. Yeah, I've also modified my color scheme somewhat (mostly to make microcline the same bright green as garnierite).

Light-blue ore-shaped rock chunks are just so... provocative.

I think you might be using the old year two save, I don't see any change from when I was overseer, and that engraver smoothing out the last rough square of my bedroom is a dead giveaway. Aussieevil may not have updated the link to the save. Did you download it from the link Conan posted or the link in the OP?

I just downloaded Conan's save and it's still the 1st of Granite. Looks like he uploaded the wrong save.
