Losing is fun

Thorny:
My successful fortress has reached the point where it is dying to lag. 265 dorfs and 300 animals. The last year, goblins killed every single caravan and the mountain homes stripped my local count of his title for failing to protect the caravans, so he sulked in the crypt until he starved to death.
Thorny:
Oh, and an ancient evil fire breather set everything not inside my walls on fire, killing all the local wildlife and plants.
Sixar:
oh, god
Thorny:
I'm ready to just call it a success and start a new one, because seriously, the lag is sooo bad
Sixar:
*giggles*
Thorny:
I can't really call it a failure. I mean, sure, it sucks to be outside the walls, but we have pets for everyone, a steady milk business, 10000 units of food (I wish I was making that up, everyone but my cooks got frozen by lag for a season) and 500 units of booze. Sure, the king under mountain wants us dead and the goblins are all wearing elf heads as hats, but the food is GREAT
