After about a week of playing (and poring over the Engravings on the walls of this site), I feel I'm ready to make some additions of my own! ..or at least learn how to do that. I'm terribly new to this. Hell, I don't even expect my links to work. But I'll at least strive to keep my information accurate, and my typing form proper.

Now, on to some research about artifacts. *Cracks his knuckles, and heads into the game.*

Current research projects:

Dwarven Waterway Statement: Attempting to redirect a brook, and while there is a lot of data on the site about this already, it's my own little pet project, and something I'm performing for kicks. Objective: To watch the flow speed of water in different size channels, to see if water spreads at a significantly different rate from smaller or larger apertures into large spaces; To see if water without an exit will spill over onto higher Z-levels or not; To see if the brook itself will empty out in the process of spilling into the new area. Status: Main waterways established, Z-level of the brook's water cut off from map exits (excepting the brook itself), series of floodgates established for fortress use (hey, practical applications of research are always best!).

Artifact craft items Statement: Dwarf crafted a "Perfect Aquamarine" and I intend to find out the details about such a thing. Objective: Find out if the perfect gem can be placed in a noble's room using a specific stockpile to elevate the room to "Royal" status. Find out if the gem can be set into an object, such as a throne, and determine the results of such; will the chair become extremely valuable? Will the furniture be trade capable? Will the artifact crafter throw a tantrum? Will placing the furniture in a room elevate the room to "Royal" status?

More on this later as the results come in. If anyone has insight to provide on this, feel free to add it to this page. I won't mind. Honest. --Eddie 14:26, 2 July 2008 (EDT)
