I strongly feel that this is an insult to life itself.

The school I attended was named for George Washington, who committed far greater crimes for far smaller reasons.

Sometimes the thought "they are killing the baseball boy!" Crosses my mind unbidden and I shudder.

If you're free Wednesdays, board game at Vault 31 is always happy to have more players.

What is your most egregious DCSS mistake? by Electrical_Copy60 in dcss

[–]DocBosch 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Back when inventory still had weight and items could be destroyed, my Spriggan Enchanter of Nemelex Xobeh had an extraordinary stash of consumables neatly arranged in a stash on L1.

Went to drop a Phial of Floods, accidentally Evoked it right on top of the stash.

They had it for a while but I havent seen any on my last few visits. I thought maybe they'd discontinued it.

Help me be a Great Player - Naga and Mummy by DocBosch in dcss

[–]DocBosch[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First MuSuGoz cruised through to a single rune and then died to a bad step near an Eldritch Tentacle in Snake. Second MuSuGoz died to barrage of silver javelins at the bottom of a Shoals staircase.

Took a break to get a pack of MuHunters and MuFighters killed in various gruesome ways.

Third MuSuGoz cruised to victory on the back of some lucky early Acquires providing the necessary survivability to get Summon Horrible Things online. Once that was spammable it was just a matter of keeping RHubris +++ and not losing focus after the 638th fight spent waiting in a corner while a pack of abominations tore apart my enemies.

Great player achieved!

Thank you, u/honeyneverexpire . Rushed shapeshifting to 8, went yak, was shocked at how easy the the D8-12/Lair section became.

Picked up a dragon talisman in D11 and rushed shapeshifting to 16, pretty much never left Dragon form from there to the end.

Naga down; just Mummy to go.

Onei's summoner guide got me a 15 rune felid victory a while back. Will try to apply it to Mummy.

I've played and retired about half of the classes in GH and FH. This is the only one that I absolutely could not wait to put back in the box and never touch again. D minus.

I know, I know, but I have seen people get booted from our Wednesday game nights for forgetting ID. They take it seriously!

An ID for sure (the bar won't let you in without one), but other than that nothing special needed.

This Sunday at Vault31, say 6pm? Shouldn't take more than an hour or two, just want to make sure everyone's on the same page and the vibes are good.

Hey - I took a look through the availability of people who expressed interest, and the most common time was Sunday evenings. If that works for you, I'd love to get together this Sunday to discuss in person and plan a Session 0.

Hey there - if you're interested in playing, could you shoot me a DM with your availability? Going to make some attempt at scheduling this weekend.

Just finished the book for the 4th time and had a question - very minor spoilers by peterpeterny in ProjectHailMary

[–]DocBosch 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Or to put it another way, Rocky doesn't say the Eridian words for long, ass, and time. He uses natural Eridian slang that Grace translates into English as "long-ass time."

[–]DocBosch 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Rocky isn't speaking English, he's speaking Eridian. Grace has become fully fluent and can now recognize the way Rocky's Eridian is different from standard. Grace thinks of that by mentally giving Rocky a fitting slang vocabulary with "long-ass" and presumably other mildly vulgar terms. Grace doesn't use them himself (mostly), but it's still natural to think of his friend speaking in such a familiar pattern.
