I'm with noodle, "you son of an elf" just became true :), all great forts had their share of ridiculous engineering, just wish someone would document it from within, a proper dwarfy narrative of the horror machine.
Since Noodle0117 engineered the structure, would he be willing to write a piece of what it would be for the unsuspecting dwarves as various ceilings collapse?
sure, i'm all fine now, I just get ticked off easily.

So you've decided to continue with the cave-in version after all... guess this will be interesting.

And to The Master:
I'm sorry for ruining your fort.
I meant it more as a prank to add a touch of madness to the fort, although I see I must have went too far.
It feels awkward to ask for forgiveness on a forum post, but I'll still ask anyways.
Please forgive me Master.

~Noodle

I'm ashamed of you for apologizing. This was hilarious. And, dear Master;
Stop trying. This is all just an obvious ploy to try and create another Boatmurdered (The poll. Seriously?).
You can't recreate it on purpose, and trying makes you seem pathetic.

Calm the hell down. And stop trying to become famous. It's embarrassing for everyone.

Now now I don't know if you know this but he's been informed of this, such as:
OP, chillthefuckout.
Its a game.
Its nothing to throw away a perfectly good computer about.
Oh, can I has turn?

And

Or you could soften up more instead. Just saying.

All in all I feel that the rules and what we're required to do needs some more softening up. Can't expect everyone to do everything exactly as you want, ya know. We have a life.

Please lets not start some flame-war. We all have moments, and so what if he wants to try and create another Boatmurdered? It wont be the same as it, but his goal is to hope to have something epic. Might not be this one, but who said it had to be the first fort? It could be this one, or the next. Depends on the player(s)/writer(s). I believe "The Master" has been thoughly informed of his actions thank you good sir.

actually, I've got a good idea. maybe the leader of the trolls' name is casp. it would make sense.

This basically reinforces everything I've been saying.

The standard treatment for trolls, if they really are trolls, is to not feed them.
Just posting to say that so far, this has been hilarious.

You know, trolling has expanded over time. It's come to mean 'saying something I disagree with'.

That, you see, is not trolling. That is disagreeing, my dear lad.

Trolling is generally the use of poor grammar, mistaken facts and general assholey-ness by an intelligent person to make other people angry. By this definition:

Am I trolling, or are you?

BAM, right there! you were doing both those things. besides, I've moved on. so, why haven't you?
I'll guess, you have nothing better to do, so you stick your nose where it doesn't belong. AGAIN, if your just going to be annoying, PLEASE post elsewhere. thank you.

-Cease-

Discussion on trolls and their definition have officially ended.

Instead, I shall present you with a slip a hauler found while searching through the recently caved in rubble.

Quote
This horrid, filthy fort, nothing but chaos and confusion. Forgotten beasts rampaging around, the military slaughtered, dwarves are dying by the dozen and still I can't even figure out which path leaves to the caves.
The year, it's almost over, and what have I accomplished? A stockpile and a room for myself? It's humiliating.

No... they will remember, I will make them remember me, I will memorialize myself, but how?

A magma pump?
No, we lack the metal to do so.

A great throne room?
No, the dwarves are too disorganized.

An impressive military?
No, that takes far too much time.

There is only one way to do so, yes...
If they won't remember me for greatness, then the only way left is to remember me for tyranny.
Hehehe...

If I can't bring order to this fort, then all that's left to do is to sow further chaos.

--------

I've given the instructions to the mechanics and miners.

They follow obediently, mindlessly, and completely unaware of the consequences to come.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)
The holes that were dug out were covered with bridges and floor hatches so as to reduce suspicion.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)
The lever is pulled, and nothing will stop the madness that shall ensue once the next dwarf comes into leadership.
...

I shall be forever remembered.
