I wooden know.

I accuse Grimm, in the conservatory, with the inexcusable pun.

That's what you get when you've had one too many potions of confusion.

Have you tried any of the munchkin games? They have two decks, one die, are easy to set up and are a good deal of fun.

PerverseSuffering wrote:I used to be a rap hater like you, but... to heck arrows and knees jokes, you're darn good.

I'm a lot like you. I don't really like to listen to rap but I appreciate the work that people put in to pieces. If I look at it as a form of poetry, I will read it and sort of like it.

Grimm wrote:That's a fixedart.

That doesn't mean it's not nice.

Blurry eyesight should take two forms. The first form is near-sightedness, you can read scrolls and books perfectly well, but your range of vision is reduced by a tile or two. The second form is far-sightedness, you can't read books and scrolls very well but you get a bonus to finding traps that are...

PerverseSuffering wrote:How about a Gentleman class? You get to wear a monocle (acute eyesight) as a mutation, and you must always hold your trident with your left hand and your sabre in your right!
No poison, of course.

I approve of this idea. However, in order to have a special mutation it would have to be a species.

varsovie wrote:Real gentleman use a foil or a rapier.

I prefer a good pen.

Grimm wrote:A friendly arm-wrestling match would be a nice change.

The problem is that friendly arm-wrestling matches quickly turn into unfriendly arm-wrestling matches and people in unfriendly arm-wrestling matches tend to use items which give them a advantage such as clubs, daggers, sabres, etc.

I know that stasis will help but that the problem of being so dangerous. Also, does clarity work to stop berserkeritis?

I've been accompanying a SpAs who was happily stabbing her way through orc when my trusty little spriggan friend got hungry, ordered herself a pizza from the foodcourt in the orc 4 shopping mall, and ate it. And what do I hear her say? Yeucch! Chicken. These spriggans are fakers! They pretend to be ...

How bad is berserkitis 1 on a long range HeWz? And what is the best way of combating this ailment.

Pteriforever wrote:Death Butterflies.

You have a small chance of getting them when you cast Summon Butterflies at high spellpower.

They do 4 times more damage then a regular butterfly.

In the Orc 4 shopping mall. "Macy's antique armour emporium."

I usually drink tea if I drink anything when I play crawl.

I don't know the system specs for dwarf fortress but DC:SS runs on a cold rock. You don't need high system specs for reading books and playing roguelikes.

Because Yellow Submarine is inferior.

It doesn't really matter if don't know Russian, just... just watch.

How interesting. I found that video to be really creepy.

You should be able to worship the Flying Spaghetti Monster in crawl.
All 9 of the mund siblings should be uniques, currently we only have Sigmund and Edmund.

D:2 centaur. I'm not sure if that is actually OOD but a D:2 centaur is as lethal as a OOD monster. I've had a D:4 orc warrior spawn because I had triggered the OOD timer.

SpBe? When I tried playing one I had a D:8 gift.

I love it when Sigmund spawns on D3 with a +5 +7 scythe of distortion.

I suggest you just try starting some characters you don't really care about and just try playing with the hjklyubn keys. That's learned to play with them. (I play on a netbook which meant I pretty much had to learn to use those keys.)

My web tiles alias is Jabberwocky. What is your web tiles account name?

Just recently I found a section of pandemonium that looked just like a heart. I thought it was a little bit odd.

... which he then splits like a pillowcase...

Just found this on my shortblade skill 0 TrBe. The -3 +0 quickblade of Wounding. {God gift} (Stab Int -3)
Wounding is all that this character can do with it.

On the seventh day of crawling Xom gave to me

7 hostile pit fiends
Six hammers of distortion
Five stupid deaths
Four books of Callings
Three rune mimics
Two bad mutations
and a +3 dexterity ring

Huh? I'm not sure I know what you are talking about.

I've had that happen. It's really annoying when you get stuck in someplace like that as a ogre or troll.

Make sure to thank your aunt for that hideous randart spear with glow, noise and rC-.

I'm sorry Okawaru, but the first snow was two months ago.

When I find a alter to Beogh in the Abyss. It just seems a little bit odd that there are orcish believers in the insanity of the Abyss.

One of the reasons I really like DC:SS is all the wonderful lines of text that are generated. Here are some of my favorite lines of text. "You quiver within your mortal coil, caressed by the liquid insanity through the scintillating gateway." "This raw flesh tastes like chicken."...

If the Mountain Dwarfs are actually extinct, should the devs be tried for genocide?

Grimm wrote:Mountain dwarves are not extinct. They just have better things to do.

What could be better then battling through hordes of monsters to get at a MacGuffin?

Wiglaf should do damage shaving and it should take ages to stop bleeding. (Edit: Or is that what you meant anyway?)

What I mean is since the mountain dwarfs and the hill dwarfs are extinct he must be a non-healing deep dwarf.

Wiglaf should have damage shaving but he shouldn't heal naturally.

Ones who are going for a all rune win.

I think the reason you can't enter is you are knocked back by the sheer insanity of The Dungeon Dimensions.

The lair eight vault where you kill the anaconda and all the elephant shaped statues turn into accual dire elephants is awesome. It's so much fun when you kill the anaconda to get at the loot and then to get out you have to fight your way through hordes of dire elephants. (Or you can just teleport o...

The amulet of Lugonu's approval. (Inacc, rC-)
I'm not sure why Lugonu approves of it.

I have a fairly standard american accent. The one aspect of my speech that some people find odd is that I pronounce "Quebec", "Kebec". I don't consider that noteworthy as everyone pronounces Quebec that way where I live. (In northern Vermont, Quebec for all practical purposes.)

Terence should always be wearing crystal plate mail. (Note to ASCII players, in tiles, Terence looks kind of blue and crystal plate is the same shade of blue.)

AtT wrote:You spelled 'favorite' wrong, sir. This is America and I will not stand for your crazy foreign spelling!

Actually British English is the only language I'm allowed to select. It seems to be the standard for the forum. Plus DC:SS uses British English.

I don't think Okawaru regards me very highly.
