MAngband

I also made a song a while ago inspired by a day's worth of playing MAngband http://mokkom.dyndns.org:8000/members/k ... ngband.mp3

I still think i'm too wary about using staffs, but they always burn up on me right away.

I'm still working on that story thing, i guess... Here's what i have if you're interested. It had been a few days since our small group had arrived in the town of Ang. We had traveled with one of the many caravans that made its way through the expansive wilderness, trailing about almost randomly alo...

First time in a while playing something other than a high elf. I decided to play as a human ranger. Things didn't go much differently from how they normally go, however, I have a log from when i started all the way to when i died, timestamped and all. If you wish to laugh at my terrible playing stra...

This reminded me of me dying, only with completely opposite directions.

quiet you... go die =P

So after coming on after being away from playing MAngband for a while, i remembered the stuff i left out for that wilderness hunt. I figured, hey, i might as well go and get it before i start up again since apparently no one else has. With that i recalled to the correct location, picked my stuff up ...

This reminds me of the thing i would always say, don't eat while playing, especially if it's Sonic, for some reason =P

This is good wisdom.

What I find odd is that not many people are buying castles on this server. The huge houses used to be highly sought after... maybe there is no longer any incentive to buy them? Hey i spent forever getting the 6mil it took to buy the castle northeast of town, though it wasn't completely worth it for...

Poison is actually a bug. The real cause of the 16 level 20+ deaths is AMHD. Then maybe it should store what monster/item caused such a status ailment. Just like Nethack says you died while helpless, it could be: Dude the level 32 High-Elf Ranger killed by poison from an Ancient Multi Hued Dragon(2...

This reminds me of when i talked about the idea of death buffs. When you die, one or maybe more of the items you're wearing gets some of your 'life force' added to it, increasing it's power by a certain amount, probably based on a level... when it's inscription is changed to something with your char...

say, the guy you're partying with suddenly walks over a trap and becomes paralyzed. There's not much of a way to tell is there. I think it'd be good if the player's background color changed according to their status effect, that way it's easier for party members to assist each other. In reality, you...

Well, i'm glad i made one that was challenging... how long did it take you to do the other two?

So for now, I guess I'll put down a few things for people to look around for. I probably won't do much else till i get back to playing. The items you get may not be proportional to the difficulty, and the difficulties may also not be accurate, but hey, I tried, right? Please post any difficulties, f...

Pow... Just to let you know, all those orcs were gone when i got to -182200 This has inspired me to go out and make my own sort of wilderness stash... This was fun. EDIT: Also, i found your first part of the Decent Challenge, but i left the stuff there to give others a fair chance... By the way thou...
