I'm sorry Necro.  Your dwarf was busy making booze when the magma reached his Hellvilla.  He's safe and sound in the fortress.  Unfortunately, Sniken and Shen are both trapped in their Helvillas with magma surrounding them. 

As for progress; There's now magma around ALL the hellvillas and covering the lake.  It's DEFINITELY faster with pumped magma.

Behaves like pressurized water 'dunnit?

Glad to help.  As a special treat, I'll even show you all how to abuse an aquifer for power. 

Once again, thanks, this beats my windmills anytime, unless there is no aquifer, of course

I don't mean to alarm you, but it appears that your Dwarves are all in fact elephants.

Here's the save with Hell full of magma.  The pumps are still going, but I've designated the appropriate lever to be pulled to cut the power to them.

I officially declare Hell beaten. And insulted.  Horribly, horribly abused and insulted.

I somehow recall Aussie losing, then savescumming. And me and Necro assuring everyone that eventually he would lose.

Everybody loses. This is indisputable. But Aussie managed to win before he lost.

Oh, and I wanted to share something I just saw. 

Spoiler:  Khearn's coffin is on fire and I have no idea why.  (It's made of dolomite, so it is magma-proof) (click to show/hide)

I have a coffin, yet I'm still a ghost? Maybe I'm a ghost because I have a ‼coffin‼ instead of a coffin?

But what makes you think it's on fire? I don't see anything in the screenshot to indicate that it is? I guess that gray stuff around it is smoke, but are you sure there isn't anything else around it that is burning?

Or did someone forget to close the lid? :-/

Or is it just due to my ghost's temperament?

Have them killed. Nothing solves a problem quite as effectively as simply having it killed.
