View Full Version : ADOM Links

We could really do with a page listing all the links to the numerous ADOM resources and pages across the web. Stopping to think there are quite a few:

www.adom.de (http://www.adom.de) - Obviously...
http://adomgb.info/ - Andy Williams' ADOM page
http://adomgb.info/adomgb-toc.html - Andy's ADOM Guidebook - vital for almost every player
http://groups.google.com/group/rec.games.roguelike.adom/topics - RGRA (the English link, as opposed to the German link on the main ADOM page)
http://sivland.s1.jcink.com/ADOI - Ancient Domains of Insanity - amusing ADOM stories
http://adom.brinkster.net/hof/ - ADOM Hall of Fame - post your YAVPs and YASDs here
http://adom.brinkster.net/forum/ - Hall of Fame forums
http://adom.wikidot.com/ - ADOM Wiki
http://strategywiki.org/wiki/Ancient_Domains_of_Mystery/Places - ADOM guide at Strategy Wiki
http://adomguides.blogspot.com/ - ADOM class-specific guides (collected by Silfir)
http://www.jbc.edu/~josh/adom-sage/ (http://www.jbc.edu/%7Ejosh/adom-sage/) - ADOM Sage Download page (an ADOM frontend with some very nice features)
http://poro.tontut.fi/~adom/ (http://poro.tontut.fi/%7Eadom/) - #adom IRC channel page
http://www.aleph-null.com/adom/ - The old Drakalor Chain Board of Tourism page (quite out of date now)

There's the IGB as well, but I'll not bother listing it. Any others I'm missing out?


Editted to include:

http://www.geocities.com/adombugs/ - RGRA ADOM bug list (maintained by xhoc3)
http://poro.tontut.fi/~adom/mkoddd/masterk.html (http://poro.tontut.fi/%7Eadom/mkoddd/masterk.html) - The fearsome Biltcliffe beast! (aka the master karmic ochre greater gibbering giant quickling eternium king chaos banshee acid diamond blink moloch archmagus dornbeast mimic eye battlebunny hivemind doppelganger duelist rust monster gorgon emperor)
http://poro.tontut.fi/~adom/mkoddd/drawing.html (http://poro.tontut.fi/%7Eadom/mkoddd/drawing.html) - The Biltcliffe beast drawing contest
http://boards.eesite.com/board.cgi?boardset=adomy - Russian ADOM forum
http://adom.narod.ru/ & http://firetower.narod.ru/ - Russian ADOM sites
http://www.adom.phx.pl/ - Polish ADOM site (no longer maintained?)
http://adom.phx.pl/forum/index.php - Polish ADOM forum
http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=2317224 - ADOM on the SomethingAwful.com forums (regular discussion, but no organisation of topics)
http://z4.invisionfree.com/A_Certain_Tension/index.php?showforum=1 - ADOM ASCII comic (choose "the beginning" in the From box to find all issues)
http://web.ncf.ca/bk039/spoilfaq.txt - ADOM Spoiler FAQ (old, but notably more concise than the guidebook)

And there is the RGRA bug list with the most important bugs at
http://www.geocities.com/adombugs/.

EDIT: Oh, I think I should include the description of MKOddd!
http://poro.tontut.fi/~adom/mkoddd/masterk.html

And the MKOddd drawing contest.
http://poro.tontut.fi/~adom/mkoddd/drawing.html

Long live the Master Karmic Ochre Dot Dot Dot! Someone should post an RFE.

Grey
03-09-2008, 02:03 PM
Ah, the beloved Biltcliffe Beast! Good to see that others remember it. I should have remembered to include those links myself (especially since the fourth picture of it was by myself - I used to go by the handle of Tekhne a long time back). As far as I know Adam Biltcliffe did actually RFE it back in the days of yore.

Laukku
03-09-2008, 02:18 PM
I have tried searching the old RFE database with terms like "ochre"(ochre jellies are rarely mentioned), "Biltcliffe" and "MKOddd", with no desired results even with the "Search the complete description of the bug reports" option. What a pity.

I have come to adom.de when there someone has told, that JADE complete. :D

Sounds like we dont want that on the list ;)

Grey
03-09-2008, 04:40 PM
yisk: I only know the English ADOM sites, but I'll happily hear of any others. I've heard there's a big Polish ADOM forum somewhere too. The first two links you gave seem to not have been touched in many years though.

yisk
03-09-2008, 05:32 PM
Hm.. What can I tell? When JADE will be released, discussions will flash with new force.

Yes, Polish forum is at http://adom.phx.pl/forum/index.php. Forum is part of Adom site http://www.adom.phx.pl/. Unfortunately, our main admin and creator of site has abandoned us some time ago, therefore site is no longer updated. But forum is still alive, and it has lot of active members.

Thx for the links!

Great job, Grey. I have been looking for a list like this for a while. I see that some of them have identifiers that show that they are no longer maintained. Is it possible to indicate which are more active? I have been places and found that while they are maintained, they are not frequented.

Grey
03-11-2008, 12:33 AM
Baranor: The Hall of Fame forum is probably the most active of the links, with regular ADOM discussion, challenges, etc. There's some very advanced ADOM players there. Otherwise most links are reasonably maintained, though I'm not sure about the Russian and Polish forums.

though I'm not sure about the Russian and Polish forums.

Polish forums are definitely alive, and maintained by second admin. However there are periods that almost no one plays Adom(well, everyone needs a break sometimes:)), but other subjects are discussed as well. Polish forums isn't dead.

A less stellar link for a webcomic, but interesting nevertheless:

It didn't exactly last long as a series, but I found it funny.

http://z4.invisionfree.com/A_Certain_Tension/index.php?act=SF&f=1&st=

NOTE: Search from "the beginning".

Grey
03-15-2008, 04:46 AM
Heh, never seen that one before. Quite funny, especially the Captain Planet one.

deepshock
03-16-2008, 07:49 PM
Thanks. Those were actually mine from years ago. Looking back, I really liked the Fate Smiles Upon You one.

Yep. The fact that K --> Barbarians only further aids the comic. Because that's what those idiots are. Barbarians.

I concur. The comics seem to have taken over this one like so many white worms.

It seems that the ADOM spoiler FAQ has been added to the list. Thanks to Grey for that and for maintaining the list in general.

Someone should sticky this... Um. Well, being in a virtually unmoderated forum does have its drawbacks (though it most notably doesn't seem to hurt civility much).

I agree that it has it's drawbacks, but really, I like it that way.

We could move the linklist to roguebasin...
