    Ok, you can keep it. That was harsh.

    Oh well. Hopefully I do better in the real league.

    He scored 114621 points and advanced to level 17.
    288205 xp, ID34.

    Told ya Lucius :P I don't know how to restore the save so I'll leave that to be done by someone else.

    I feel a bit cheated by this. I had a very tough situation to try and get past, and in the end I failed. But now it turns out no one else has to attempt the situation? And people who died in the first round are still revived?

    It doesn't matter, because it's a practice league, but it's still a bit annoying.

    That's why we'll keep double, triple saves in the actual competition.

    This is definitely my bad. league2 was accidentally pretty much a normal player account due to me modifying a wrong line in /etc/passwd... sorry for the trouble.

    You're quite right - I apologise, and in the interests of fairness you will be revived for the next round. I should have tested myself that both leagues' save backups were working. Alas the one thing I didn't test ended up being the one thing broken... I was quite dissappointed myself and not getting to have a go at the living walls. My turn was very easy by comparison.

    Start moving east, zap monster detection, shows that nothing bad is on the level, giant rust monster is the worst one.
    Find stairs, don't descend yet.
    Explore around the level.
    Ankheg breath destroys boots of speed, and scrolls of satiation and YIKES.
    I ate a stone giant lord corpse to get +1 st.
    In around 600 turns whole level is searched. I move to chill on top of the downstairs, to pass the time, regen PP and so.
    Around 900 turns I take a look on the level, kill some mobs who have queued up behind the downstairroom door. I see lots of shadows, guess that means a summoner.
    I move back a bit fruther, and there is a shadow wyrm. I want to kill it and chill here for now, instead of descening. I get it to low health and panic, but it bolts me to just a bit over 20 hp. I start to run, get a shadow between us, it gets me to 6 hp. Then I get a corner between us, so no more bolts. Go down stairs.
    I34: Zap monster detection, shows tension room (berserker emperor most notably, the rest I didn't stick to my head so I guess they're crap) and a single black hurthling. Wait till I have more hp, fearing traps.
    Explore level, meet greater water elemental that I didn't fight, first didn't care about us but turned hostile, I just closed a door on it.

    Code:
                                                                         #######

    E = last place I saw the elemental
    X's = the tension room is around here. Don't remember the completely exact place, I'm sloppy like that. It was 3 tiles wide vertically and maybe 5-7 horizontally.
