Thought you guys might want to see a bit of progress while everything's quite and running smoothly in the fortress. 

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

I've floored over four of the twelve Glowing Pits now and I've got them smoothing over the floor in the corner as you can see.  When that's done, they're going to engrave it before moving on to the Glowing Pit to the right.

This is partly because, why not?, and to increase the fortress' value.  I fully intend to smooth and engrave ALL of Hell as well, by the way.  The reason they're smoothing and engraving that spot now is because I intend to fill that level fully with water and the level above to about 3/7 for a dwarven swimming pool.


I just told them to start engraving the floor and walls they already smoothed so it's all mostly one big job. 


Let's have a look at what they've done

Wait, did he cancel his mood, or have a fist fight DURING his mood?

Either way, this guy just started a fistfight with genetics  :P

It... actually cancelled his mood, it looks like.  He's gone melancholic.

He is officially a badass. He cancelled his mood in order to beat the shit out of some random punk. LIKE A BOSS

Not quite.  A; he was possessed into a tantrum fight, and B; all he killed was a Doe Rabbit.  Granted, he scratched it so hard in it's upper chest that it bled to death though.

So he got possessed and ripped a rabbit's chest open? Still win to me

Hey Aussie, about your golf thing, I just remembered my ol' Helot pop control machine, basically, it was a retractable bridge, flinging burrowed unwanted dorfs into a large pit, with some very sharp spikes.

Replace dorfs with strawberries? :D

I can certainly try.  I'm not quite sure if you can stockpile atop a bridge
