Attention Dungeon Divers:

Post by VZhitogoroshi » Sat Jan 03, 2009 12:12 am

Who among you remembers when Blankie summoned brave warriors to delve dungeons?

Regardless of whether you are a veteran or a greenhorn, the time has come again.

The venue is Angband. The goal is to keep up with the pack, reaching ever-deeper foes and reaching other milestones. We will go in week-long increments, to prevent this from consuming any significant amount of time. It will be quick - if you have the skill to survive.

When you die, you are dead. While it is possible for one to fight in your place, as the group goes downward it will be harder to catch up in a single week.

For the first week, I will stake out and demand you reach a relatively small distance, simply to make sure the newbies are acclimated. Then, I will lead the group downward. If I am not the last survivor, you will follow a new leader upon my demise.

Will any heed the call?

Hrm, while I've never spent much time in text based adventuring, I am familiar with the loose ideas, particularly the seemingly 2ed DnD rule set this has going.

Sign me up.
And though you come out of each gruelling bout,
All broken and beaten and scarred,
Just have one more try—it’s dead easy to die,
It’s the keeping-on-living that’s hard.

I shall play this game of your's...

I remember the last Angband thread. I didn't join it though, since I really wasn't sure what the heck this was. I still don't know, so this would be the first time I've ever played it.

I'm not sure if that's enough, but regardless, I would make sure you play and get practice right away. There will be a lot of looking up commands at first.

Human priest. Leel 0. Died. Jienso was his name (super cool name; I literally closed blmy eyes and hit random keys with random fingers). I had like, 18/20 Wisdom
I have no idea what the Hell I'm doing, but this game is absolutely GENIUS.

I can't even understand how the Hell the dice thing works. I just hope I don't die!

It would be really cool if there was an Angband sub-forum or sticky to post all of our dumps and pictures, etc. We could just have a sub-forum closed to new threads that only holds stickies you can post in or something. That would be really cool.

Screw that, there Angband should just be a supported game of VZ. That would just be amazing.

Also we need a VZ store with I Hate Cave Spiders t-shirts. Come on, I'm a level seven warrior, I shouldn't die by some dick monsters you can find on level one.

6 to 7 people...perhaps upwards of ten.
Very well, I will flesh out something for you in a few hours.

Aye, I also add my support for both the store and the new Angband sub-forum in the Clan Games section.

Moreso for the VZ store though. Man, so epic...

My old characters from Blankie's game (Both of them) are still alive too. I'll start a new one for kicks for this, though.
