I'd like to be player #11 if that is possible.

Also, blazing, name a weapon smith or armorer after me, if there is one. =)

We've got an armorer and a metalsmith. Any preference?

Yeah, I think this rule was created to prevent atom-smashers and other fun insta-killing stuff.

Actually, the rule (together with the trap limitation) was to prevent chokepointing and static, powerful defenses. Being able to dodge sieges and monsters simply with a drawbridge is silly. Safe forts are stale forts. Mad constructions such as bridge-a-pults tossing anvils and such is of course completely expected.

Don't worry, the levers to operate the auxiliary drawbridges are out in the outer courtyards for maximum hilarity.

The Chronicle of Hoosegow the Shroomsmith, Volume I

The Shroomsmith eases himself down into the loose loam of the underground farm and strokes his magnificently kept mustache. He gazes at his companion for a time, then sighs heavily.

"Good morning friend. We've had a good season, you and I. While I've gotten to know you quite well, I fear that you really didn't get to know me. It's my fault, 'tis true. I've been busy. There's always so much to do, but such is the burden of a Shroomsmith. We dwarves are a stubborn lot. Most of them immerse themselves in the lure of stone and steel. You know how they are: pouring all of their hours into the crafting of earth, or bending the axe to their will. But where would they be without us? They need their food; they need their drink. We are the unsung backbone of the mighty Dwarven empire."

The plump helmet that Hoosegow addresses neither moves nor responds. The Shroomsmith continues regardless.

"Without us, the mightiest warriors would starve to death in their armor. The most legendary craftsdwarves would soon go berserk without their ale and wine. You and I, we are the secret heart that beats at the center of any great Dwarven fortress."

The robust plump helmet, grown full and large over the course of the season, remains motionless.

"Especially this place! Martyrtomb... And here I thought this would be a normal assignment. But no. They assign all of one Shroomsmith to found this fortress! What were the royal administers thinking? Oh well, our guild takes its job seriously. If it is to be just me, then so be it."

The Shroomsmith draws his scythe and severs the plump helmet's stalk in one swift slash. He collects the fallen mushroom and tosses it into a pig tail fiber sack with its fallen brethren. He walks five feet away and slowly lowers himself to the ground in front of the next plump helmet in the row.

"Good morning friend. We've had a good season, you and I. While I've gotten to know you quite well, I fear that you really didn't get to know me..."

My free time is too unpredictable to bother you with waiting for me to play.

Well, can your dwarf be immodest? Because I just found out that the dwarf I wanted to get your name has such a trait.

Well I am not exactly humble myself, so yes please

Well, when I was running the fortress I managed to free only one cat out of two. So maybe we'll have pet kitten.

Woah, I got a female!

Dwarf Description:
She has a great ability to focus, but she has a little difficulty with words, poor creativity and little patience.

Sounds like the average StarCraft player to me

Like rams etc? Assign them to pastures. Don't do that to pets as far I remember, as they get fed by master (at least what I think) dogs/cats eat on themselves.
