i wonder how many more poor souls will be caught in the "drain of death"?

who's doing is that anyway?  Cause we've lost a solid 30 guys to it so far and i for one have NO idea how to fix/plug it.  I tried grates but that didn't seem to solve the issue.

ive gotten in the habit of replacing my chief medical dwarf as soon as he gains any notable skill in diagnosis.
It's really funny watching them do unnecessary surgery because of a wrong diagnosis.
the conditions were bad enough to turn a dwarf who didn't care about anything mad, that's pretty hardcore.

well by the sounds of it my flooded dining hall trap was drained and a waterfall was created using one of the aquifer leaks i made.

so you can thank me and peregarrett, who decided to reclaim that cursed hall.  8)

Yeah.  Thus why I didn't make a trap.  In it's current state the fortress didn't need a trap, the whole damn fortress is a trap.

Well that was a strangley clever trap then.  Cause that room caved in within 5 minutes of me playing.  However over half my turn had passed before the drain of death was noticed, let alone became an issue.   :-\

Well... Delayed cave-ins are noodle's creation, that I casually avoided. Drainage was mine, but I didn't mean it to be the Surprise, I had something else in mind, but looks like I screwed it and it's nonfunctional  :'(

I just saw a guy with two broken legs push a minecart with a corpse in it. Yeah.

Ok, she runs! I'm going into this blind, and I don't remember my trap idea. Crap. Any highlights I should be aware of?

DF without DT isn't DF, it's a keyboard-based exercise in masochism.
