YASD: Ongoing DEWz Executions

Here was attempt number 103 at ascending a DEWz. Note how far this one descended and the numbers and kinds of monsters he vanquished using only the book of Minor Magic. Since no other book was ever found, of course. That spear was at least half responsible, though. Block enemies with Conjure Flame, hit them from afar with some decent damage. The sInv mod was indispensable for that (seen) unseen horror on D:11.

Very upset that he died, but I took too much a risk by electing to stand one turn while the hydra burned. My own fault in that. Who knows how far I could have gone with only starting spells? lol

Re: YASD: Ongoing DEWz Executions

Wizard starting book is really good and can easily take one through Lair (and beyond).

Your mistake was not so much standing next to an eight-headed hydra for a turn, per se, but standing next to an eight-headed hydra when you only have 59 HP and 6 AC and 13 EV. And also not identifying all that stuff you had. You were carrying around a bunch of great consumables and a freakin' wand of hasting and didn't even know it.

What contributed to the conditions above was that your spells were all at 1% failure but you were still training (every) magic school, and you had 25 spell levels that you weren't using—that is, you overtrained spellcasting skill majorly. You should have put a lot of that experience into dodging, and only dodging, so that you had EV at least around the low 20s (but more is better). Then, with that weapon and that ring, a bit of polearms (despite bad aptitude) and fighting wouldn't have been a bad idea. I mean, if you find yourself using something 578 times, probably it is worth some skill investment.

Re: YASD: Ongoing DEWz Executions

A lot of spellcasting isn't totally wasted: with the MP, you have the option to be extremely blink-happy during a fight while still having enough MP to deal with your enemies.

Of course, that doesn't make a good alternative to dodging if you don't actually cast blink to avoid the enemy....

Re: YASD: Ongoing DEWz Executions

A Deep Elf wizard with starting spell casting (4.4) will have 28 MP at level 12, as compared to 36 MP with 13.6 spell casting.

So basically this guy got less than 1 MP for each of the 9 levels of spell casting he trained. Even with a +4 aptitude in spell casting, that seems like a really bad trade off, even if you really like to blink.

Training a bit more spellcasting than you strictly need for the spell levels can make sense sometimes, but 13.6 levels on this character was really exorbitant.

It works a lot better if you train the spell schools very little, since 4 points of spellcasting also give a spell power and miscast boost equivalent to one point in seven useful spell schools. Now that I look at the full skill distribution, I see a ton of XP in the other spell schools in addition to spellcasting, much more than I would have spent overall.


A 28% boost in your total magic capacity really isn't anything to sneeze at: not only is magic dart is one of the lowest damage spells there is, but a wizard has a lot of MP-based options for keeping herself safe if you use them liberally. For comparison, in my experience, a ring of magical power is one of the strongest items a wizard can find in the early dungeon!

I do hope you're kidding. Easily, he said. :lol:

Had I any spell with any more oomph, I am sure the hydra wouldn't have made it across five fire tiles. Starting spell book is pretty awful for doing Lair. I never even would have made it past the entrance on 1 were it not for a scroll of immolation and a scroll of blinking. It was a swarm.

Your mistake was not so much standing next to an eight-headed hydra for a turn, per se, but standing next to an eight-headed hydra when you only have 59 HP and 6 AC and 13 EV.

So I can improve EV by Dodging, and HP by Fighting? But AC is tied to armor, which is a no-no, right?

And also not identifying all that stuff you had. You were carrying around a bunch of great consumables and a freakin' wand of hasting and didn't even know it.

Agreed, but I'd just picked that up, that and two of the four ID scrolls. I was identifying as I could, but ID scrolls aren't exactly plentiful. (Why no ID spell? I've often asked myself.) Had I just drank the potions to ID them, I risked something nasty, and even then with only one available, IDing it by quaffing gets me where? I am often frustrated by the inability to identify stuff, and I usually have bad luck wasting them to ID them. (But I do ID all wands by zapping them.)

What contributed to the conditions above was that your spells were all at 1% failure but you were still training (every) magic school, and you had 25 spell levels that you weren't using—that is, you overtrained spellcasting skill majorly.

I mean, if you find yourself using something 578 times, probably it is worth some skill investment.

This is very good information. I've tried to find the proper balance between overtraining and making something useful out of it, and it is still much a work in progress.

I had dodging training the entire time, but only with +. I'll hit it with * next time. Where should spellcasting track as he levels? Are there charts I can look at to see how progressive levels affect their domains?

Thank you for the advice. :)

Yes, he found one of those, and used it along with the Wizardry ring, until finding the artefact ring. I thought Wizardry would trump power alone when I had to choose between them.

Dodging (EV), stealth (more chances for enemies not to notice you), and fighting (HP) are all reasonable. Evocations if you have something useful to evoke. If all my aux slots are filled, maybe I'd even train enough armour to get 1 point of AC. I'm not sure I would train a weapon skill at this point in the game beyond a pittance of skill unless I found a really good one or I wanted to play a melee character with spell support mid-game. Poking things from behind a cloud of flame with a good weapon is a reasonable reason to train some skill, but mainly weapon skill is for when you want to hit nontrivial things with weapons rather than blasting them, and that usually requires having good HP/AC/EV first.

One odd problem with DEWz of Sif is the spell book. All of your spells are low level so you don't need much experience to get them castable, and Magic Dart is the only one that depends heavily on spell power, but it reaches the cap pretty quickly. This is a good thing most of the time, but if the Sif altar is late, you are put in an awkward position where either you have to choose between

  • going through the early game without training much magic
  • go through the mid game without much piety (in particular, no book gifts!)
  • training magic skills for a while with very minimal benefit

I often pick the first: once I'm up to a reasonable minimum standard, I will stop training magic skills and go with other things until I find a Sif altar.

For comparison, in my experience, a ring of magical power is one of the strongest items a wizard can find in the early dungeon!

Yes, he found one of those, and used it along with the Wizardry ring, until finding the artefact ring. I thought Wizardry would trump power alone when I had to choose between them.

Wizardry only helps with the miscast rates, so the ring was doing nothing for you at that point in the game!

It surely depends some on style too -- I cast blink and the two cloud spells very liberally so I get a lot of use out of the MP. I imagine other play styles that use less MP would get less use out of them.

Re: YASD: Ongoing DEWz Executions

It's still a random blink (as opposed to a controlled one) and it can place you next to a monster, or behind the monster, opening your LoS to more monsters. I get "panic blink" to escape melee, even if it's often not the best move, but randomly blinking around seems a bit dangerous.

Also, to OP: I would recommend against playing DEWz, I don't even think that combo is particularly good. One of perks of being DE is that you have huge Int and huge spell schools aptitudes - for magic backgrounds this means you can get your heavy hitting spells online very fast and break shoot the rats with a howitzer, so to speak. However, Wizards don't have real "heavy hitters" as Elementalists and Conjurers do. I feel like Wizards are encouraged to melee much more than these characters (which might be counter-intuitive), and with the way you train skills (sorry) trying for early hybridization would just make your characters even worse. I would recommend either playing DrWz (or HuWz) if you do want to play Wz for whatever reason, or DECj.

That question makes more sense, but has essentially the same answer. Yes, blink is a bad idea if there are squares in your LOS that are less desirable than the one you're standing on. However, I frequently find myself fighting places where, if the monster is next to me, then that makes it the least desirable place in my line of sight. So long as the area is open enough, you will generally get less often -- if you ever get hit at all -- if you blink away from melee rather than tanking it.

(yes, I use other things too, e.g., clouds to avoid having the monster stand next to me in the first place. But that isn't always the best approach, nor does it always work out even when it is)

I tend to prefer conjurers because the starting spellbook can take you to level 20 without much problems. You'd rather get some better bolt spells if you can, but IMB + battlesphere lasts roughly forever ;)

In any case, you don't need as much spellcasting as you had, and you shouldn't be training so many skills at once. I generally don't train more than 2 or 3 skills at a time. Sorry you didn't find any better spells this run, but usually you will, so try, try again! Good luck on #104!

Well, I'm also training for spells I plan on getting (and with Sif, that means just about anything I want). It's frustrating to me to be able to memorize a spell but not use it. Pre-training is my solution for that.

Well, I'm just going to have to look more things up instead of guessing. The wiki is a good source of information. All I had to do was look at the page on that ring to see it was useless to him.

I also use a lot of MP, which is why I train spellcasting and switched from Vehumet to Sif Muna.

Too late. I'm already committed.

So my training is poor. Do I use auto or manual? I like auto with the modifiers, because that seems to pump what I want pumped best, giving most to the stars, and a little to the plusses. I guess the question is what is the right thing to pump. Someone in my other thread said no to stealth, but here it was said to be necessary. I would have thought it necessary, too, so I'm going back with it. Dodging. Some fighting. Maybe no specialties? I thought I was figuring it out, but apparently not.

Well, if I performed the calculations correctly, it looks like pumping spellcasting gives a lot more MP than a point for a point. Assuming zero points in either invoc or evoc, the values for MP are dependent upon spellcasting and XL. I created the chart in Excel, covering up to levels 27 on both axes, but including only the fist 12 here:

  Code:
XL  SC> 0      1      2      3      4      5      6      7      8      9     10     11     12
1     2.3    3.5    4.8    6.0    7.2    8.4    9.6   10.8   12.0   13.3   14.5   15.7   16.9
2     4.3    5.8    7.2    8.6   10.0   11.5   12.9   14.3   15.8   17.2   18.6   20.0   21.5
3     6.3    8.0    9.6   11.3   12.9   14.5   16.2   17.8   19.5   21.1   22.8   24.4   26.0
4     8.3   10.2   12.0   13.9   15.8   17.6   19.5   21.3   23.2   25.0   26.9   28.8   30.6
5    10.3   12.4   14.5   16.5   18.6   20.7   22.8   24.8   26.9   29.0   31.0   33.1   35.2
6    12.3   14.6   16.9   19.2   21.5   23.8   26.0   28.3   30.6   32.9   35.2   37.5   39.8
7    14.3   16.8   19.3   21.8   24.3   26.8   29.3   31.8   34.3   36.8   39.3   41.8   44.3
8    16.3   19.0   21.8   24.5   27.2   29.9   32.6   35.3   38.0   40.8   43.5   46.2   48.9
9    18.3   21.3   24.2   27.1   30.0   33.0   35.9   38.8   41.8   44.7   47.6   50.5   53.5
10   20.3   23.5   26.6   29.8   32.9   36.0   39.2   42.3   45.5   48.6   51.8   54.9   58.0
11   22.3   25.7   29.0   32.4   35.8   39.1   42.5   45.8   49.2   52.5   55.9   59.3   62.6
12   24.3   27.9   31.5   35.0   38.6   42.2   45.8   49.3   52.9   56.5   60.0   63.6   67.2


So, if my understanding is correct, I'm getting about double MP from the level 12 spellcasting at XL12, and if I go beyond XL 12 the difference will be even greater.

By contrast, the only way I can affect HP is to train fighting, which does only net a point for a point, basically. A level 27 DEWz with level 27 fighting will have a max HP of 159 or 160 (non-mutated), again, if I am correctly applying the formulas.

Now, I certainly didn't need so much training in evocations, but I just liked the perk of IDing the number of charges in the wands when zapping them. :)

Well, I can only try again, and probably again and again. Someday, you may see my YAVP for the DEWz.

I certainly agree with this; and I would probably go that way more often than not if my goal was "I want to win with a Wz" (rather than, e.g., "I want to win with a blasty character").

I feel like a character like that would benefit from decent manual training; however, checking every skill that you might want to have at some point of the game at the beginning and sticking to it is very poor manual training, and if you don't want to learn how to train your skills manually I would recommend sticking to auto-training, even though I feel it is better for melee characters (since they typically have less skills to train). If you do want to learn about manual training, I would recommend train no more than 1-2 skills at a time. Just think, what does your character lack at this moment and train accordingly. This means not training magical schools when you already are good at casting your spells (which will be pretty soon for a DEWz), for example. Of course you will make mistakes, but if you post those characters here I'm sure me and other players will help you to correct them.

Training for a thing you don't have is a really bad idea in Crawl more often than not.
Aule wrote:A level 27 DEWz with level 27 fighting will have a max HP of 159 or 160 (non-mutated)

199, actually. 124 with 0 Fighting (and no, I have no idea how formulas work, I just created a character in offline trunk, entered Wizmode and fiddled with skills and XP level). But that not the point - while having 27 Fighting is good, it's a huge investment. What's important is that your XL12 DE with 0 Fighting has 59 HP; with 10 Fighting it would have 77 HP, which is a great deal better. Combined with a non-awful EV (a common advice is to have at least around 20 EV by the end of Lair on light-armoured characters, which is not a magic number but seems to be a good guideline) that would make your DE a great deal more durable.

Regarding god choice: I feel like Sif is a bad choice on this character, you already get a truckload of MP by being a DEWz, and Sif piety mechanics require annoying skill choices. Vehumet is the better choice since you will get some actually useful spells a great deal earlier, and, being a DE, you will learn to use them very soon. Another choice I would recommend is Fedhas, I guess - his * ability allows you to create mushrooms which will get you to and through Lair, and after finishing Lair good chances are you'll find some books. I would also recommend Kiku because Kiku is great. All those gods seem like better choices than Sif to me.

Well, yes, but one side effect of my overtraining spells has been rapid piety advancement with her.

Vehumet is the better choice since you will get some actually useful spells a great deal earlier, and, being a DE, you will learn to use them very soon.

I was using him at first, but could not keep up with his piety demands (too much travel and resting), and so I would continually be absent from the best effect of his worship, the increased area of effect.

I would also recommend Kiku because Kiku is great. All those gods seem like better choices than Sif to me.

Interestingly, this newest iteration had the corrupted temple (should have known when I found Sif on D3 and scattered altars between there and 8, including an early Beogh vault). I thought about switching to Lugonu for variety, but I'm not sure if he could survive her wrath for abandoning her already.

I've also considered Fedhas, but only seriously when his altar spawns with all the fruit and okolob saplings, and only after I've torched them.

Sif's channel energy and amnesia are pretty valuable, even with boatloads of MP. It has saved the character numerous times, whereas the same can't be said for Vehumet, whom I tried thrice as many times. I'm not trying to rush them through, but I'm playing in a more exploratory fashion, which is evidently too much dawdling for Vehumet.

Anyhow, I greatly appreciate your taking the time to explain things, and the thanks button doesn't seem like enough.

Re: YASD: Ongoing DEWz Executions

I'd say the best effect of Veh for DEWz would be getting some hard-hitting spells as soon as possible. Sif only starts gifting at ******, and yeah, following Sif enforces some bad skilling choices.

Regardless, I'd adivse you to at least try the gods I mentioned if you find their altairs soon enough, and to consider my skilling advices. After all, Sif isn't some kind of awful choice - I just feel it's not the best one.

Well, the Sif join had already been made before you posted, so that shall have to wait until next iteration (if I don't succeed with #104).

So far, so good. He's down to Lair:4 using only Minor Magic, even though he's found other books. He even killed an 8-headed hydra that way. But he can't use the more useful spells he's memorized because the failure and hunger are extreme. So, do I now train those schools so that he can use freezing cloud and invisibility? That's why pretraining was my tack; I knew eventually freezing cloud would come.

Also, he has a scroll of acquirement, so what is the best option? I'd like to get potions, but that doesn't seem to be an option. Armor probably seems most sensible. Jewelry has been kind to him already, and I'd hate to get a plain magic anything. No haste/tele/heal wands yet, but also very few already ID'd. A weapon will come eventually, and he doesn't use it that much. The last time I used one for cash, it was a measly 500 pieces. Probably best to just leave it in the temple for now, or get armor.

Here's 104:

Re: YASD: Ongoing DEWz Executions

Well I would probably never train any more Stealth on this character. For Freezing Cloud to be a thing I would train only Conj, Ice and Air. And I would go for wands.

Re: YASD: Ongoing DEWz Executions

Freezing cloud is ridiculously strong on anything that has ranged attacks and will stay under it for several turns. It's still powerful on things that will move through it as fast as they can, because that will generally still be 2-3 turns under a very damaging cloud.

That said, training for a triple school level 6 spell is expensive, especially trying to rush for it. Your dodging is getting decent, but could use a little more. I would learn regeneration right away, although how much you can train it right now is a harder call. Turn off stealth and spellcasting to save exp, and pump either conj/ice/air for cloud, or train fighting/dodging/charms/necro for survival/healing. I'd probably try to get cloud online and then do the defensive options. You'll want to pick up the first useful spell that can deal with rC+ monsters that you find, which cloud doesn't work terribly well on.

Infuriating, it is.

Thank you. I had pretty much done as you suggested, and once Sif Muna started granting gifts, it was a bounty of spell options. I got pretty far for XL13, and I really shouldn't have let him die. I did have the potions. I'm just a masochist, I guess.

Edit: Oh, and just out of curiosity, had I acquired the slimy rune of Zot to pay the Trove fare, would it have taken it from me?

Re: YASD: Ongoing DEWz Executions

You should have trained more fighting, man. It's not something you can ignore on casters if you don't want to grow ulcers every other fight. I like the high stealth on him. It dramatically improves survivability for a squishy character.

Troves take you to a room full of treasure. They're generally nice to be able to enter, but with the random nature of loot, you can't expect too much that will be useful. You generally find 1-2 useful things out of the 10 or so items, which is good, but don't kill off a character trying to get a rune you aren't prepared for. There was a thread a while back about a trove that requested two scrolls of acquirement to get in, and there was some debate about whether the scrolls were worth more than a trove or not. Hopefully that gives you an idea of the rough value of a trove. Other common things are wanting +3-5 dragon armors, and people have to decide if it's worth 4-6 enchant armor scrolls, etc.

The only thing that troves will ask for that they will not take from you are a rune or the horn of Geryon.

Re: YASD: Ongoing DEWz Executions

You trained all 4 elemental schools (plus poison), and learned bolt of cold, bolt of magma and iron shot. You probably had a reason for it, but this is bad strategy. It means neither of your spells is strong enough, and your skills are spread too thin. Imagine a fighter who trains maces, long blades and axes simultaneously.

And, yes, I know to ID the scrolls.

What was that cold cloud passage going to lead to? I'm sorry I took the bait on that one.

Is there a place that has all the various vaults and such available for viewing? Some of these dungeons are amazing, and after all these games, I still always see new things. Unfortunately, I'd rather not be surprised by overly difficult surprise challenges. Looking for spoilers.

I think I'm getting the hang of skills. A little.

Re: YASD: Ongoing DEWz Executions

Well, this one's not so bad, despite, you know, training all those skills. You were about to tele, and gargoyles can be a nasty surprise.
Why not try another combo?

I should be able to win with any combo I choose. If one is exceedingly less fruitful than others, then I feel it should either be buffed or be nerfed completely. Make them harder to be hit, or more HP. Something. Anything.

I have tried. Really. And I'll likely keep trying, as this is the nature of addiction. I'm not optimistic, though.

Re: YASD: Ongoing DEWz Executions

What I personally like about Crawl is that you can adjust the level of challenge you want from the game by hitting two buttons at character creation screen. Simply put, races (and classes, to a lesser extend) are Crawl's difficulty settings. You have Centaurs, Deep Dwarfs, Spriggans, Trolls etc on one side, Nagas, Mummies and Formicids on another. I know some people absolutely hate that. I don't, I like it.

Simpler combos are a good way to learn the ropes. I didn't start by playing Mummies. If I did, I would probably still be trying to reach Lair.

Re: YASD: Ongoing DEWz Executions

Playing with different kind of characters would teach you different aspects of the game faster than just sticking with one type.

(When I started Crawl, I played one game with each race-background combination. That first round amounted to 356 games and my first 6 victories.)

Blast. What a potion to find on D:2. I guess that's why Sigmund was put there to guard it. Though I'd have been just as happy as a clam for a curing or heal wounds as I was quaffing unknown potions in a panic. Had I put all the XP into spellcasting, it would have been over 14. At XL5. That can't happen often.

{sigh}

So, on the off chance that I try another build, what would be the species/background of the unbeatable tank alluded to in prior posts?

So I'm on D:4 with this guy, and all of the sudden there are "microbats" and "phase bats," "megabats" and "gigabats", spectral bats, fire bats, vampire bats, zombie bats, and just a ridiculous variety and number of bats. I thought there's be a treasure pile, but no. It was just there. I had a witness, too (who must have been bored to death), so I'm not imagining this. But look at the dump after clearing the level. There is no mention of over half those bats I killed. Nothing about microbats (about four), megabats (at least one) or gigabats (one), or phase bats (at least one). When they left a corpse, I noticed that they were normal bat corpses, so that's probably how they logged, but what in the world was that???

Re: YASD: Ongoing DEWz Executions

Skilling advice: go to manual mode (/), turn off Fighting, Dodging, Stealth, Spellcasting and Fire Magic. Train only Conj for a while.

Identify the yellow potion, and read the scrolls.

I'm not a professional code-diver but it appears that the micro-, mega-, and gigabats are all "skinned" onto normal bats, but with modified HD and special tiles. That explains why they leave normal bat corpses and don't appear anywhere else in the game, neat. I also like the designer's dedication to taxonomical accuracy. :geek:

Aren't vaults fun!

Well, MiBe would be at the opposite end of gameplay spectrum compared to DEWz.

While I agree that MiBe is the standard tanky character, I thought I'd suggest that if you're looking for an easy way to get a win, CeBe has somewhat lower aptitudes (in some cases, much lower) but is naturally faster than most monsters in the dungeon, and makes running away very easy. It'll take a bit longer for your weapon skills/armor/dodging to increase, but running away is very strong. Just something to consider.

That actually was manual training. :D And for how long is "a while"?

[strikethough]And, umm, there are no yellow potions until I identify them. All unidentified potions and scrolls are regular white text. That would be a nice hint, though. :)

(makes paper airplane out of it and flicks it toward the suggestion box)[/strikethough] :oops:

This time, lag killed me. I didn't think I pressed the key, so I pressed it again, and again. When it finally buffered, he was already dead. Would have pressed a different key the second time, realistically.

pfft

I'm not a professional code-diver but it appears that the micro-, mega-, and gigabats are all "skinned" onto normal bats, but with modified HD and special tiles. That explains why they leave normal bat corpses and don't appear anywhere else in the game, neat. I also like the designer's dedication to taxonomical accuracy. :geek:

Aren't vaults fun!

That is really cool. I need to look at the code, then. 'Course I've only played the tiles version, so the maps won't mean much. But reading enough code I may be able to make a map to tile conversion thingy. ttyrec playback in tiles? That would be nice.

Thanks!

Oh... D'oh! Thanks, Sar. Yes, now I understand.

I tend to read ID scrolls on them, and read scrolls with more than one to ID those if ID scrolls are limited. I may lag a few turs between getting them and doing so (heat of battle and exploration and all), but I do try to know what is there.

So, anyway, to Magipi, I'm sorry, but I thought you meant yellow in color. I didn'r realize I had one named "yellow" since the unided names tend to blur in my mind as meaningless.

#122 R.I.P.

I seem to hit an iron-clad brick wall at around this level. Character had no chance against Nessos, and was running away. Basic survival items like blinking scrolls should be more plentiful than they are, IMO. An uncontrolled blink could only bring him even closer to Nessos during the attempted escape.

Re: YASD: Ongoing DEWz Executions

Nessos's MR is awful (36). Did you try using hexes or hex wands on him?
He's also not immune to poison and his HD isn't very high (9). Did you try mephing him?
Did you have repel missiles up?
You had teleportation going, did you read it the moment you saw him or by the point it was already too late (below 50% hp is too late)?
Also, there will not be more sources of controlled teleportation/blinking added to Crawl. In fact, a lot of people lobby for controlled tele/blink being completely removed from the game, because it allows people to get away with really bad play by 100% reliably vanishing from it. (Like in Angband, but in Angband the game is balanced around perfect escapes and ridiculously strong enemies, but Crawl isn't.)

Re: YASD: Ongoing DEWz Executions

The first thing I tried was mephing him, and even after he stood in the cloud, he was unaffected. I read the teleporation after "it was too late," as you defined it. Had the several wands and over 8 in evocations, but I almost literally never think to use wands in battle unless they're haste/heal/tele. I think RMsl was down immediately. He was getting two or three shots per one movement of mine. I don't generally look at the wiki before engaging, so I just did what I though was best with a (near) total unknown. (Another character killed him with seeming ease, so I was totally unprepared.) He just got too many shots, and with a double-enchantment to boot.

I probably should have gone to Lair or Orcs before descending deeper into the dungeon, but back at XL10, he dropped through a shaft for 3 floors from D11 to D14, and made it back alive, so I was overconfident with having clear starting points already established on those levels, too. (I hate that trap; it's nothing but a gotcha.)

I thought I skilled pretty well. Vehumet gave him Fireball, eventually, but he only found one book the entire game, the Book of Control, and I've preferred to leave Hexes alone as just another skill sink that wands can equally accommodate. But somehow I don't think slowing or paralysis would have worked on him, and I likely wouldn't have wanted to take the turns trying had I thought about them, anyway.

:/
