Highscore streaking (joke) / turncount streaking (serious)
After you won your first game (usually a 3-runer) you might want to look for a new challenge. This could be a win with another species/class/god or a 15-runer e.g. - but the challenge goes on.
A very interesting thing about crawl is that there are so many different challenges to seek for: combo highscores, streaks, pacific wins, greatplayer etc., speedruns, tournaments, self-made challenges or whatever. Many of them are supported by CAO scoring tables.
Yesterday a well-known player told me he got a new streak record, seven 15-runers in a row. So I suggested a new challenge: Streak all species with every win being a new species highscore.
He'll be quite occupied for a while . Some hints:
- Start with naga and vine stalker record as these are especially tricky to beat.
- Keep in mind that - after the streak is interrupted - every new start will be harder than the previous one.
