I hope there's not too much Weird Time Shit.
I've once again sort of lost track what the fuck is supposed to happen, with body sliders and hell colonization and so on.

This whole story is like a rotten fruit that I keep trying to grasp to sate myself, and it keeps slipping away through my bony fingers in a mushy mess that I can't make anything out of.

I agree. Also, I'm not sure if this has been said before, but updates should be mandatory. It's very confusing when we go 1-2 turns without any sort of news (excluding dwarfing) from a player.

[Reudh]

Well, come 2013/2014 when my turn finally comes up, I will write updates so long your response will be TL;DR!

[Ieb]

Just for that I'll carefully analyze your post, criticize your use of words, how you describe everything and whether or not the interactions between yourself as the ruler and the dwarves is believable!

HA! This may or may not be related to the fact that I'm writing an essay about a 650 page book that I read in a day and half. Oh god am I stuffing this thing up too much? I should be writing that instead of this post I think I'll just stop no

[Reudh]

Excuse me, but I did do a DIPLOMA in creative writing.

[Ieb]

Then I expect you to dazzle me, all of us with your creative writing.

Oh, Mego?  One other thing you should know about the Checkerboard;  The magma and water tanks each need to be HALF the size of the board, not the same size.  I forgot to account for the available space being halved due to the pattern.  (I originally worked around this mistake with a dwarf locked in the control chamber doing careful pouring)

[Reudh]

Oh gawd, Ieb, now I'm worried. :S

[ThatAussieGuy]

Oh gawd, Ieb, now I'm worried. :S

You should be more concerned about Mego building a complex engineering project involving both magma AND water that he got wrong once already.

[Gizogin]

Well, I now have no idea if Hellcannon will even survive until my turn, which is only two away.  I'm not sure if I should be disappointed that I might not get a chance to play with Hellcannon or excited at the possibility of being one of the first to play BFIV.

[Strategia]

Provided we have a population of 10 stone workers in a fort of 100 with 20-30 military, this could work.

Welcome to Hellcannon, you must be new here. Please feel free to take a look around and curl up into a ball in the corner whimpering softly.

That was Failcannon Prime right?

I'm still bummed that it turned out in the awesome reclaim thread that Failcannon Prime wouldn't have worked even if it had gotten finished.

[Eric Blank]

There were a lot of things in Failcannon that wouldn't have worked even if they had been continued. The STFO was one of them

However, I too wish to express how disapointed I am in the quality of updates, and also the insistance on meta-gaming and storytelling.

The story will make sense at the end. Trust me.

I had no part in Battlefailed or the FAILCANNON, nor did I participate in Failcannon (other than being active in the thread) and the STFO.

Also nothing can possibly go wrong. I'm using Aussie's blueprints._{that I spilled coffee on}

I think I have the whole pictures-not-working thing worked out. I should learn by now not to mess around with advanced settings in Linux.

It seems that ThatAussieDwarf left out two important layers of his blueprints. We are examining the site of the trap today to determine if the necessary changes can be made. If not, I will have him hanged.
