First time ever, I made the tournament result news! 99ac 49 ev GR xD
Some pretty cool stats. https://crawl.develz.org/wordpress/0-20-tournament-results
Didn't expect DCSS to be quite so hard.

I really like the interfaces. It gives me that nostalgic 90s 4X feel without all the weeks of onerous micromanagement for each and every single one of my planets and ships :)

Immortality drug sounds cool. Gene therapy should increase human lifespans by quite a bit.

Large cardinals or whatever is the silly mathematical thing that is not even a number anymore.
Oh god.

Here, have some nightmare fuel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QgNDao7m41M

Transcendentals. Or maybe infinites, I dunno.
THAT'S what I was trying to remember!!! Definitely the scariest for me.

The null set is scarier.
This sounds like one of those things that gets more confusing the more you learn about it.

My age +1.
well-played

I think Euler's number, e, is probably among the most scary, [...] Every point on the number line, including prime numbers, can be expressed as a notation using this number and an exponent.
That just makes me like it more!

Let's take pride in our ignorance 8)
I find irrational numbers the scariest.

DF Adventure Mode Discussion / Re: No-armor tactics
« on: June 12, 2017, 01:17:32 am »
The best reason to not have armor is being an elf with no good equips. You get a crappy weapon too ;)

Fastest way to kill someone is ambushing them from behind with a divine battle axe. Though you usually can't get divine materials without hacks and I don't think a divine battle axe would spawn anyway.

Soooooooo I'd just equip a silver battle axe and dodge-spam plus use the ',' key to notice incoming attacks at the earliest possible moment so that you can keep kiting a large group of enemies.

If they notice you, lop-off a foot and go for the neck with a hack or a slash. If they're armoured... Lop off the other foot and they will bleed-out. You gotta completely dismember each foot with bogeys or they won't bleed. Also you can toggle charge attacks against small enemies (bogeys). The battle axe is my favourite weapon because it lets me chop trees.

Also try wrestling weak forest creatures to train your dodge, shield, and attributes before recruiting companions.

Careful though. It will raise their stats as much as it raises yours, so you can get grimelings going on killing sprees.

Throwing rocks at the ground is also good for attributes. Actually apparently legendary throwers can throw coins for extremely high damage. But it obviously weaker at melee range since you can't dodge or shield at the same time, and you can't target a specific body part.

tl;dr - good no armor tactics include raising shield and dodge to legendary before recruiting companions, and raising throwing to legendary.

Also, cloaks. Lots and lots and lots of cloaks. And hoods!

Good job guys.

(I'm disappointed in myself for not winning.)

Maybe an option to lower the throne audiences... I hate doing 17 audiences per cycle. I'd rather do like, five. Do any of the dudes you hire do your audiences for you?

@Azywng, Nope, it's a race of Psions
But do they have Zionist Scions with Ion Torpedoes?

Holy escy just chocked-up another two... 15 RUNES?!? I'm still in lair. Gratz on whoever on Metalsmiths did Zig:9.

I just want a 5-rune win :'(
But it's the last day and I'm still in Lair. I'm assuming we need to die or leave the dungeon for our score to count? Or do ongoing games add points?
Did I mention I hate crits?

Also, got down to 7hp in Zot:5 after getting all 15 runes, with no blinking scrolls or heal wounds, dying there would have been really depressing.
*gasp* lawl
I would've died inside. Jk already dead inside. #spriggans

Life Advice / Re: Should i become a writer?
« on: June 09, 2017, 08:52:30 pm »
High supply; low demand.
Writing is a very competitive field. And most people aren't willing to spend money unless it's on erotica.
It is also a very rewarding field, and you can improve (in that, the more you pump-out, the better you'll get)! I dunno. I keep getting writer's block when my characters start dying-off.
