Which of you lunatics tracked the Battlefailed curse in here anyway?

*raises hand*

Come my turn, I may delay just as heavily as anyone else, because I'm also participating in Hellcannon and trying to help prepare the succession world game to begin. And my computer is slowly committing suicide despite being brand new.

If it's a hard drive problem in a desktop, just buy a new hdd.  Slap it in, clone the current drive to the new one (praying to the computer gods it doesn't crash mid-way.  You might also have to tell the software to ignore that the source drive's faulty), then remove the dud.  Problem solved.

Exactly! It may take a few days to acquire a new harddrive though...

Well, I'm calling it.  It's been five days with nothing from Squirrelloid.  Oliolli, you're up!  Grab the save and go for it

I almost lost it when I saw it hit pg 64.
That's a cube of 4.

*insert Hellcannon/Swordthunders meta-plot here*

That's a cube of 4.

That's also 2^6. Binary is way better than tertiary.

Swordthunders has already been meta-plotted for my planned succession game.
It is among many others lost upon the obsidian coated blight on the world known as Everoc. At least for intents of the planned game.

I'll be getting home in about 6½ hours. I'll start then.

I take it we'll ignore Squirrel's progress.

If you want to co-opt a fort for your metaplot, you'll have to make your own.  This is a succession fort of madness, hilarity and strawberries.  Possibly mead as well, if anyone can figure out beekeeping.

So I'm apparently skipping back some 20 pages. The last update by Mitch was on page 47.

Well, I'll have to see about getting some power to the people pumps. I'm not very good with mechanics, pumps etc. so the system for auto-pumping may end up looking quite nasty.

Aussie said something about a set of pumps being damage or something or needing to be put back up that go everything functioning when I asked about the pumps. It's still a convoluted mess and I have no idea where exactly the ignition pump is/need to be put up, but still.

I...

This place is a mess... I had forgotten how bad it was.

The quarry level has magma all over, the aquaworks are not functioning, for whatever reason, I think, ghosts everywhere and nobody making or engraving slabs.

I have no idea where to start. Maybe the aquaworks?

Ow, I'm getting a headache, ow, ow, OW...

*Looks through thread for Aussie's instructions to restart aquaworks*

The hotkey doesn't seem to work. And I don't see a pump to restart what I believe are the aquaworks. Gah.

That's the waterworks, right? Where am I supposed to start pumping?

Build a pump horizontally across the empty row above the top row of wheels.  (add a pair of floor pieces to build it on, of course).  Pump it once manually and the whole thing will kick off.
