So, that worked out well
Great to see everyone enjoying the tourney, I'll get back on the horse at some point.

I tripled my wins from the previous tournament! Unfortunately, after the good start I got some really terrible losses (including one really lame death in Zot), and that got my strength of will, I never won again.
It was really good to see your games and I enjoyed playing together. I'll miss the tournament, I like to play in a group much more than alone.
Hoperfully see you in the next tournament again!

I really like these separte categories. I think it makes it fun for a wide variety of people, focusing on the competition in different goals.

I was not aware that unique hunting is your thing
Ha, it isn't particularly, it's just that last time I noticed we got 79. And this time 78. I think that's very good, only a couple of players manage 81.

I have added a second, with an easy nemelex combo: HODe.

All I can say that new spider seems brutal. Zot 5 is also very scary. Big axes help a lot though.
I had a trove that asked for a demon whip, and I did not found a single demon whip in the game.
I dropped some items before entering a portal (Tukima's studio), because I wanted to have space for the occasional loot. Unfortunately, I also dropped my axe, and entered barehanded. It took me a while to notice -- I had to escape. After that I learned the inscription to prevent dropping items.

Re: Return Of The Tavern Snacks (0.26 flavour)
Can anyone explain the deal with new Yred piety? My HuWn keeps fluctuating back to zero stars, which is a problem cos I was relying on those undead to see it through the early game.
edit - ha, just reading it now. "Piety now solely based on the number and strength of allied zombies in sight".

I am currently splatting a lot of attempts at a fast run (per my usual in tournaments), and realizing just how much these depend on luck for a middling player like myself. Oh, well.

Though, if you enslave a soul, I believe it does count for piety; so you'll then likely start each floor at *.....

Well, it's a game where basically *everything* involves the RNG, can't not depend on luck
This time item luck was… this nice:

I really should've done that since I didn't have much time to play anyway so I only did some fail attempts after that…

Re: Return Of The Tavern Snacks (0.26 flavour)
I'll message Strat and sanka to see if they're up for it. Are there any other regular Snacks I've forgotten?
I'll enter the Snacks once the tourney page is live.
