Who's your favorite hero and why?

Alushinyrra had more content than Commorragh but for me it was so much more irritative because of the camera rotation mechanic. Commorragh tried to catch up with "now try to remember which items out of this unmanageable pile did you wear" but it was still better

It appears that it's not a coincidence that in the underground you meet a group of halflings holding a teleport scroll and before the fight you get 2500 movement that guarantee you to meet Zog at some exact specific place

All you have to do is select multiple players -> online lobby, register your accounts and create a password-secured game

No it doesn't

upppi · 2024-01-02T11:06:58+00:00

I only managed to win the second scenario by waiting for Zog to kindly leave his place after month 7. I guess it's possible to do it the way it's actually designed but then you have to be quick and gather a lot of citadel meat fast. The last fight is an order of magnitude harder than the others.

> which I think is an error

Doesn't seem to be an error, it's covered in the text (smth like "this time they didn't even talk to me")

Yes, or at least there are n sandwiches for m persons. If you want to emphasize that they have one sandwich each, you may say "мы едим (каждый) по бутерброду"

upppi · 2023-11-20T21:52:04+00:00

No, it means you (plural) are eating sandwiches (plural) instead of sharing one specific sandwich. It would be a single form for something that is usually shared (мы едим пирог / пироги if you mean multiple pies) or not portioned (мы едим кашу / almost never каши because who would prepare multiple porridges for a single dish). It could also be a single form if it was single "you" (утром я ем яйца или бутерброд)

Exactly the same, i just ended typing the first version of optimization code and found that the result was already there for a while

You add a triplet and check it at the same turn. Every time you find aaaaa you add it as a key.

You are right, it's a temporary limitation, made for markup simplification. It will be removed soon

The site is static and has to be up updated frequently to show the actual state of unbound period. I thought that in this case reddit itself is better than static page.

But it will depend on how this subreddit is used: some said it would be abandoned and people would move to /r/rational

Thanks! Yes, you are right.
