unless the forest grows magically to full hight in a day like they always do.

So, multiple treatments. Didn't you ever read Syrupleaf?

Hold on, I'm firing it up...

Hmm, my connection seems oddly slow, DL:ing the save is taking it's sweet time...

Also, I'm only now registering to DFFD, and I'm not getting the activation e-mail...

DF crashes any time I try to reclaim. In case I can't get this to work, I'll have to skip my turn. 'Tis a shame.

Truly. Must keep tryin!
hmm... Sign me up for spot 9 anyway; it'll probably be just a couple weeks if the reclaims repeatedly fail.

I have no idea where anything is. I have no idea what anything does. This is not merely a madhouse designed by a madman, but a madhouse designed by many madmen, each with an intense hatred for the previous madman's unique flavour of madness.

If it gets to me and I have to launch my own reclamation attempt, can I bring extra dwarves? >_>

Wait 5 minutes or so. Not kidding, but once it's loaded you shouldn't have any problems.

So, are we waiting for Oliolli or should I go ahead and start my turn?

Yeah, if we don't hear anything from Oliolli by tonight, server time, you can start your attempt at reclaiming the place Mego.

Also Jesus loves you and wants to help you!
John 3:16-17 (New King James Version)
For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. For God did not send His son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.

If you have questions just ask.

DON't START YET, DON'T START YET!

You won't believe what just happened! I find a sealed off wing, hundreds, hundreds of fortresses, just sitting there! Full of skeletons, shoved them out, good as new!'

It did reclaim this time.
___________________________________________________

Let us begin the tale of (the reclaim of) Swordthunders... again...

So, led by ThatAussieGuy II, the Reborn King of HFS Lor Zonmamot, Expedition Leader, accompanied by random named dorfs and a novice combatant named Oliolli IV, the expedition has arrived.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Aussie, look familiar? This is the shaft in which my adventurer was, and still is.

I hope you people are ready to wait a bit, I'm getting a FPS of 1½.

Oliolli II, the Ghostly Carpenter is wandering the fort. Even though I am dead, my spirit lives on. Or, you know...

Hmm, apparently Swordthunders has '2000?' corpses and '1000?' body parts around. Well done Aussie, I salute you.

I have yet to see any FBs.

No offence Oliolli, but I don't want to be dwarfed for this fort.  It's all about the reclaim you guys are doing, not what I did or my dwarf did.  All I'm doing is keeping any eye on the thread and wondering just how you crazy buggers will run the place into the ground.

All right then, I'll just take the name away.
I realized I should have asked you first.
______________________________________________
For whatever reason, my miner is wandering through the fort, even though all the mining designations are outdoors...

I've also found the hole Aussie used to grow strawberries in hell. Hell seems... magmariffic...

What the--- A FB ambushed me?!?

Well, between the two FBs that came out of nowhere and some accidents, it seems I don't really have much chance anymore. So I threw a yak into Aussies hole-to-hell. Well, maybe I CAN do something. I'm sending a miner to find a way to hell, maybe get some water down there. See if I can obsidianize soem of the magma.
The miner killed a FB, by the way. With his bare damn hands. The FB was water, so no surprise he won.

Two dorfs down, five to go.

Well, one FB has left the map, one was killed by my miner, the other by a lucky strike from my hunter.

A new FB. Also, my FPS has been steadily increasing, now being at 25.

"Your fortress has crumbled to it's end."
Go make some new disaster...
