Duel to the Death: Discussion

[gut]

I'm super enthusiastic to see a Soirana victory now!
C'mon you work-dodging lithuanian, you gotta WANT this

[_Ln_]

Choose certain death. Choose a race. Choose a class. Choose chaos. Choose a fucking large hammer, choose steel horrors, golems, compact grey slayers, and lightning vortices. Choose good health, low dexterity and mental instability. Choose hexed gold Casino repayments. Choose a starter talent. Tame your friends. Choose PV wear and master packager. Choose three anvils and a forge on fire purchase in a range of fucking materials. Choose stun and wonder wands on a Sunday morning. Choose hitting on that shambling mound-numbing PC crushing titan tension rooms, stuffing fucking junk rations into your mouth. Choose rotting kobald corpses at the end of it all, pishing your last in a miserable dungeon, nothing more than an embarrassment to the selfish, fucked-up drakelings you have spawned to replace yourself. Choose your future. Choose death... But why would I want to do a thing like that?

Awesome

[Grey]

I would appreciate if we move this to talk thread thank you. I also do not knwo how you mix words eight and seven...

I sent file to guy i know in real life to check that. According to him missing trap was left top... Given exit was actually bottom left... Well, if i ever believed Darren could DQ someone in finals i would not bother playing on.

This is quite serious... Rules are clear that one must report all important actions clearly and not benefit from player knowledge of the PC's position. Confucio, what do you have to say for yourself?

[JellySlayer]

I think the obvious solution is to DQ Confucio and let the runner up in his semifinal play for the win

[gut]

I say the winner of the peripheral grudgematch has proven
himself worthy

[Soirana]

Since when replacements are under rules? I won't cry over a win

[gut]

I say no DQ, I wanna see this end slowly : )

[Confucio]

Ok i've read it all the comments

First of all, i must (another time just in case...) say sorry for my shitty english
sadly i'm a lazy italian guy, an so:
i'm able only to play mandolino, eat pizza and spaghetti, an sing all the time.
when there was english lessons at school i chosed to go swimming at the sea...
(Sadly i don't live near the sea)

Second: i've write the first report in very short time, (and played also the turn in few seconds)
i've wrote : "Zap the Wand of trap creation all around in the room there was 8 charges.... then wait untill the turn end."
Probably i've used a wrong expression, sorry for that. But i use the expression "all Around" as, somethingh like "everywere" (in effect in the italian language are pretty the same word). So i've zapped the wand "almost" randomly "all around" my position.
i tink that i have wasted also the final charge, zapping on a square where there was another trap...
So i tink that Soirana get the necessary information, Knowing to be in a room filled of trap, not a big trouble, in fact he excaped from the room in less of ten moves ...

Third: about the swordman... really can't see the problem
i've said that i was runnig. The monster follow me... why i must spend time to controll the state of the monster? there was a Mummy in the corridor, i've decided to flee, waiting for a teleport.

really guy, rules are great, but we must not exceed our needs. This match is yet really boring, and i don't wonna play an ultra-boring lawyer match.

so if u tink i've done sometingh wrong, just say that, and i leave the match with no regret.

waiting for the tribunal decision, i try to survive to the Soirana move...maybe i can eat my sandals...

[Soirana]

You wanna pretend you did not know layout of traps?

[Pumpernickel]

Yeah, that should look great as final result of the tournament:
'The finals were decided by DQ of a noobfaggot.' [1]

I think that before the finals, Confucio would have deserved a DQ by _almost_ trapping everything around the PC and leaving a single exit, then not giving information as to where there were or weren't traps present. Smells too much like building a trap with an exit known to you, confucio. If you can't trust yourself to keep track where you zap that wand, you should have abstained from the action.

And Soirana - while i easily worked out trap ordering by myself, i never stumbled over the top trap type concept in my own playing experience, so i generally wouldn't know which trap to expect, say, on x:12 y:15 on ID:2. If you escaped the trap using such knowledge, perhaps _you_ should be disqualified for 'player knowledge of pc position' <g>.

[1] and what sort of ludicrous word is that anyway? 'unskilled stick of wood'???
