R.I.P. Derek Ralph McMahan

http://castledraft.com/editor/Fy5jk7

Some say he hated cats. Others say he mixed concrete for a living. Still others thought he was a distant relative of the late Carl Patrick Miller, who's expansive (and expensive) concrete doghouse was nearly as impressive as this one.

Nobody knew what possessed a man to build a house with so, so many dog doors. Yes, the traps were all disarmed with a mere meat, or a glass of water, but that wasn't the point. It wasn't until you brought 20 meats and RAN OUT before you were halfway through, could anyone truly appreciate this stubbornly principled defense. And add to that design enough open floor, and the wife could be in any corner of the map, surround by… well, take a guess.

And speaking of the wife, she held up her end admirably. Like many abandoned homes these days, the Mrs. stays behind, somehow keeping up with the kids and several dozen pets that remain. Few robbers pay much interest, and such houses tend to linger on for eternity.

…until the night of June 1st, 2014, when a masked stranger found a way to the bunker, and caught her unawares. And now another outstanding house has finally been grounded.

Let us give a moment of remembrance, for a once mighty house that dared to use 100 dogs (and not one toggle)

Is the map supposed to have something other than dogs?

Yeah, concrete. It's not mine, though, and I have no idea who built it. I might post my draft after a while, I just want to test my wife-hunting tactics on a few more dead houses first.

Oh, yeah, that place. I robbed him ages ago, back before the house was completely trashed. It's been sort of sitting there and accruing bounties for at least a month by now, and was, to the best of my knowledge, unrobbable without tools.
