WW DII - The Dungeon 2 : Dungeon Harder! GAME OVER!!!

[Autumn]

I don't get the dark brick thing with bhlloy, seems he's got deeper levels on both sides of him. I suggest anyone with something fishy like that, or mauboy and simbo's thing, double check with Abe.

Abe, if you made this dungeon so convoluted that it's impossible to map, or that it's rooms shift during the night or something, I will track you down and kill you.

[Zinto]

I forgot to tell you. There was a hole in the floor.


Did you just enter a room with a hole in it because I fell into a hole yesterday.

[Simbo Klice]

Simbo and mauboy are in a room with a statue. You guys should check if it's th same room you started in.

I am pretty sure all the starting rooms had stars painted on the floor.

[KWhit]

Abe, if you made this dungeon so convoluted that it's impossible to map, or that it's rooms shift during the night or something, I will track you down and kill you.

Shit! We're in Hogwarts!

[Autumn]

I also can't figure out if those statue rooms could be the same. Doesn't seem to line up. I have so far assumed we all started on the outermost ring of rooms, but I suppose that's not necessarily true, and it's not necessarily true we're in a square.

[Autumn]

Good point, Simbo. Statue#2 I guess.

[Abe Sargent]

Actions are done, post away pm info!

[PurdueBrad]

Someone SLAYED one of these:

Corrected, happily.

[Autumn]

Nice work PB.

[Autumn]

Well, hello there

[PurdueBrad]

So yeah, I didn't shop but fought a really tough adversary. He was worth a good deal more than the leprechaun that I faced earlier (who was tough as well).

I'm hoping to bump into one of you healers at some point but, in the meantime, I'm happy with the results of the day. Tomorrow morning, I hopefully get to check out the chest that it guarded.

[PurdueBrad]

Thanks Autumn!

[Abe Sargent]

Would you like a deity?


The 27 gods and goddesses of Thorasia are a mixed lot. Soemone asked for god info, so here's a post on a Blog of mine with it.

The Abe's Place: The Deities of Thorasia (http://theabesplace.blogspot.com/2010/05/deities-of-thorasia.html)

Pick whatever deity you want.

It's one of the four hardest creatures in LEvel 1. It's teh hardest one to die so far.

[PurdueBrad]

I pledge my sword, shield and life to the Goddess Gontia. In fact, this slaying was in honor of her.

(I picked her because as a Sis'shaar I'm semi-nocturnal and she is a goddess of night and moon)

[PurdueBrad]

It's one of the four hardest creatures in LEvel 1. It's teh hardest one to die so far.

Dude, now THAT made my night!

[KWhit]

So, um.... Hi Autumn.

[Autumn]

Berstuk is my man. It must be why that pixie helped me out the other night.

[Autumn]

Heh, how'd you pull that off, Kwhit?

[KWhit]

Well that didn't go well.

[KWhit]

Heh, how'd you pull that off, Kwhit?

I had some challenges in the room and decided it was best that I depart.

What happened to you in the candle room?

[hoopsguy]

Pixies are working overtime bailing the rest of you guys out, from the sounds of it.

[Autumn]

Nothing. I went to the Djinni sale. In retrospect, if I had realized this about the candle I would have skipped the sale. Oh well.

since you're here we can move on together. Not really worth to both stand here waiting for a candle. I'll try burning it in the morning just in case.

[KWhit]

Pixies are working overtime bailing the rest of you guys out, from the sounds of it.

No pixie bailed me out. My feet did.

[Autumn]

So, K, do you think it's worth teaming up on that big bad library beast? Or should we use the other door.

[CrimsonFox]

Pixxxxxxxxiesssss? I thought they bailed yessssterday.

[KWhit]

Nothing. I went to the Djinni sale. In retrospect, if I had realized this about the candle I would have skipped the sale. Oh well.

since you're here we can move on together. Not really worth to both stand here waiting for a candle. I'll try burning it in the morning just in case.

Agreed. Shall we form a party?

[Autumn]

AUTUMN JOINS THE LEGION OF DOOM

Do the same if you like the name ;-)

[Autumn]

CF, what's with the hole in the room. Can you tell us where you are?

[KWhit]

KWHIT JOINS THE LEGION OF DOOM

Cool beans.

[dubb93]

How cute. The Axis of Evil has formed.

[Autumn]

*flexes*

[dubb93]

,,,,,,,,

[Autumn]

We're not exclusionary, like some people we know. Anyone can join, who knows what they're doing.

[dubb93]

Without giving away too much to the side of no good, I sense great evil lurking deep within the dungeon. As a paladin I am compelled to vanquish this evil. I am stocked up and I will be heading that way tomorrow.

[dubb93]

P.S.

Have fun playing house around the outside ring heroes. :lol:

[Autumn]

Have fun storming the castle, Dubb.

Has anyone seen a coffin in any of their rooms?

[Autumn]

APPOINT KWHIT MOVEMENT LEADER

Kwhit, I will be at class in the morning so I will leave it up to you to move us along. From the direction you just entered, i came from the left, so we want to go right, I think, or back to the library. Whichever youchoose.

[CrimsonFox]

I am pretty sure all the starting rooms had stars painted on the floor.


That issss an incorrect sssstatement. Mine wassss a magical ssstar and it wassss on the ccccceilling.

[CrimsonFox]

Disssssscretion isssss the better part of valor.

[CrimsonFox]

Corrected, happily.


Well met brother SSSsss'shar! I do hope we are able to meet up ssssometime.

[Autumn]

Hey, Crimsssssssson Fox. Did you fall in a pit thisssssss afternoon? Is it the skeleton room Zinto was in?

[Autumn]

I mean sssssssssskeleton room.

[CrimsonFox]

I don't get the dark brick thing with bhlloy, seems he's got deeper levels on both sides of him. I suggest anyone with something fishy like that, or mauboy and simbo's thing, double check with Abe.

Abe, if you made this dungeon so convoluted that it's impossible to map, or that it's rooms shift during the night or something, I will track you down and kill you.


Perhapssss we're in the everchanging labyrinth. I guesss whomever findsssss David Bowie'ssss bulging package losessss and whoever findssss the prepubescent Jennifer COnnolly winsss.

[Danny]

Ive been jit woth the fat fonger iphone disease

[CrimsonFox]

Hey, Crimsssssssson Fox. Did you fall in a pit thisssssss afternoon? Is it the skeleton room Zinto was in?


no I wasss jusssst teassssing to messss with your map.

[Autumn]

How ... good of you.

[CrimsonFox]

To teassse or jesssst is not an evil act. To tell you a lie and let you believe it and not fessss up. That would indeed be ssssomething I would not do. However, it makessss me think that perhapssss not everyone isss telling you everything or telling you falsssehoods. Granted if sssomeone is evil I would not want them to know where I am.

[Autumn]

There's certainly a lot of missing information out there. It's to their own detriment. A complete map does nothing but help everyone. I guess if everyone wants to work on their own, fine. I may be an evil little cat man, some say, but I understand you scratch my back I'll scratch yours. The more complete the information, the less everybody stumbles around.

[CrimsonFox]

Without giving away too much to the side of no good, I sense great evil lurking deep within the dungeon. As a paladin I am compelled to vanquish this evil. I am stocked up and I will be heading that way tomorrow.

A very noble caussse indeed good sssir knight. If you are ever in need of healing, pleasssse let me know.

[Autumn]

I'm off to rest, and won't be back until tomorrow afternoon. I hope we fare well, Kwhit, and if we run into anyone else, I'd be glad to have more party members, particularly a mage or priest or healer. I don't think we need to divide up by alignment, other than those who want to for the fun roleplaying.

[Danny]

Even good and evil come together when they have a mutual goal in mind.

[Danny]

Plus Hoops is an evil Paladin and since Paladins are always evil anyway, that probably means he is really good.

[PurdueBrad]

Has anyone else found a scroll and attempted to examine it?

Did it work, were you able to find any info about it? I got one yesterday and didn't figure that examining would help but now I'm wondering.

I got one yesssterday but couldn't read it. I asssumed it wassss magical in nature.

I have the ssstrangessst feeling that we are near each other. What are your exxxitsss from the ssnake room? And di you sseeee red brick small entrance?

[PurdueBrad]

In my room I can go backward, which is the way I came.

I can go left which, if my map matches up, would take me to the outer perimeter again by someone's starting room maybe.

I can go straight into...who knows.

I cannot go to the right though as there is a wall BUT this would be the way into the deeper dungeon.

So I am currently working my way up the second ring. My current plan is to go forward as I think I may luck out and find someone's room next.

[PurdueBrad]

And yeah CF, I do have a very strong feeling that I'm close to somebody. If someone is one room away from me these are the possible ways:

A- IF you went right out of your starting room and went left, you could possibly be in the room ahead of me.

B- IF your starting room had no exit to the right but an exit forward and left and you went left and then hung a right in the next room I could be coming up on you.

C- If you left your starting room by moving forward and then hung a right and you have an exit forward of you, we could be facing one another.
There is one other way but I think this person would be two rooms away from me at this point rather than only one.

I do assume that after my move tomorrow I will be able to announce that I am very close to somebody. Anyway, at least I hope so!

[Danny]

Man, I just hope I am not the first one to die. I'm not liking my chances so far.

[CrimsonFox]

I started in the Bath room. I could go Forward and right. Moved forward into Spider room. There was red brick forward (for Guzak/Duergar). Normal exits left and right. I chose to go backward however to recoup. Going to try the other exit tomorrow.

[Danny]

Of course you started in the bathroom. Of course, now it looks like an upside down port a potty

[bhlloy]

C- If you left your starting room by moving forward and then hung a right and you have an exit forward of you, we could be facing one another.
There is one other way but I think this person would be two rooms away from me at this point rather than only one.


This could be me. As I have darker bricks to the side of me and not in front of me I think that's definitely a possibility.

[CrimsonFox]

Autumn, are you writing down the ssstarting locations of people too?

[Danny]

He isn't keeping track of anything, it's all a rouse

[CrimsonFox]

Abe, we allowed put character introductions/descriptions here? I think it's be neat if we all introduced each other.

[mckerney]

Moved and didn't find anyone today, but I did come away killing a creature without taking any damage. :)

[Darth Vilus]

Why do I get the feeling that I'm walking around in my own area of the dungeon?

[mckerney]

JAG, dubb, Chief, bhlloy, mckerney, Kwhit, I'd love to have a description of your rooms you've been in so I can piece together this map a bit more.

Here is my map so far.

The Dungeon 2 Map (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/pub?key=0Akws7ebk7ZxpdHNsLU8tclJDTENEWEVRc0poMlRrRHc&output=html)

[Darth Vilus]

I have the option of going into the darker part of the dungeon but I'm a little reluctant to do so right now. I'd like to be a little stronger first

[Julio Riddols]

I say we search the room we are in and head to the South unless you want to spend a day in a room with nothing in it for sure since we were in the rooms to the left and the right.

This sounds good to me. Lets make it happen.

EDIT: Should we go ahead and call this the "Cat Party" and make it official? If you want to lead, I'm ok with that.

[Abe Sargent]

Action time!

[Abe Sargent]

Evening actions done

[Simbo Klice]

Morning action sent, mauboy.

[Abe Sargent]

Night night my test subject....er...minion...no...whores!

[Autumn]

Yes, I am trying to keep a record of everyone's starting rooms, subsequent rooms, all the exits, and their movements. I have a spreadsheet of all this, plus mini maps started of everyone's movements that hopefully will join together at some point.

[Autumn]

Oh good idea, Mckerney, a Google Doc. I will convert mine to Google and share it later today.

[Autumn]

So mckerney, what were the exits from the sword and shield room? I assume up is forward in your map? What were the exits from the table room?

[Autumn]

JAG and Dubb are the only ones who have not deigned to tell their starting rooms.

[Danny]

They have to wolves

[Autumn]

Kwhit, I'm okay with whatever direction you want to go. We can go back to the library if you think together we can beat whatever was in there. Or if not head right. I'm fully healed, but don't have anything fancy to fight with.

[Autumn]

Also, Julio, if you could tell me what exits there were from your rooms.

Chief, I have your first day exits but nothing after that.

[Autumn]

NTN, Jackal and Darth, what room are you in now?

[Autumn]

And yes, Danny, you're right. I'm not mapping anything. I just have a script that autogenerates questions about rooms and directions.

[Poli]

I apologize for my absence yesterday. I had to work in a couple of classrooms, drive 3 hours and watched a movie with the ever pregnant Mrs. Poli.

What did I miss? Who's posting in pink?

[ntndeacon]

We are in a room on the second level that had cave ticks. There is exits in all directions. We went left to get here.

[PurdueBrad]

I may try to post my map today, it's kind of weird because I did it in PC Paint.

[Poli]

I prefer flere diagrams.

[The Jackal]

NTN, Jackal and Darth, what room are you in now?

The first day I had gone forwards, only to come back. Thence I went to the left, which was first the right, and therein lays the imp.

[CrimsonFox]

The Autumn-bone's connected to the Danny bone....The Dannybone connected to the...

[JAG]

JAG and Dubb are the only ones who have not deigned to tell their starting rooms.

We mages are a mysterious lot (at least the skilled ones).

I hope to meet up with someone after today's movement or at least stumble across a room another player has been.

I'm interested in figuring out what's going on with bhlloy and Mau/SK's odd movements, as it seems important. I'm trying to go back and piece a couple things together.

[PurdueBrad]

Hey guys, I think I did this right. If you check the link and it works, can one of you just say so?

PB's map (https://docs.google.com/document/d/1NC5H4qld2L4EkRUfRwxYzPDAsHLp9P5anFjW3GPqVvk/edit)

[PurdueBrad]

Assuming the map works, my current plan is to head forward through the room I am currently in (the snake/chest room).

[Thomkal]

Good morning all.

Well I'm exhausted after cleaning stables all night, but finally free to leave this room. I will search it before I go hoping to find a secret door so I don't have to go to the darker bricks.

As for the gods, I think its quite appropriate for Greenleaf here to worship: Teminia – Goddess of Forest, Hunt and Faerie, Sister of Berstuk. I say a prayer to her for a successful hunt today as I search the stables.

[Abe Sargent]

time to process morning actions

[JAG]

I'm interested in figuring out what's going on with bhlloy and Mau/SK's odd movements, as it seems important. I'm trying to go back and piece a couple things together.

I forgot to toss in Danny's strange second room exit that would seem to lead off the map.

[Abe Sargent]

Someone is fighting these right now!

[Danny]

Your post makes no sense jag, what exactly was off about my moves and exits?

[Danny]

The Autumn-bone's connected to the Danny bone....The Dannybone connected to the...

Dannybone connected to the crimsontailbone hahaha

[Autumn]

Danny it doesn't seem from the rooms you saw that you started at the edge.

[Danny]

? Who said i started at edge? I started two room to the left of hoops on the same axis. I think im missing something??

[Abe Sargent]

Morning actions are done!

[JAG]

Your post makes no sense jag, what exactly was off about my moves and exits?

So again, initial room had a throne on it (which I sat on and did nothing) with exits foward and to the right.

I went to the right, encountered four guzzaks and they would have killed me if not for pixies coming to my rescue. Pretty sure Abe planned to stick me in the room right next to four monsters

My exits for this room are backward, forward, and right for Dvergr or Guzak

From the 4 guzak room, you said there was an exit to your right and with your orientation, that would take you out of the dungeon (if you could fit through it) or at least to a ring that's further out than where everyone started.

[bhlloy]

PB - interested in knowing your move plans today. Any reason for you to stick around? My room is empty so I'll be moving somewhere, but if you are staying put I will head forward and maybe there is a chance we meet up

[bhlloy]

From the 4 guzak room, you said there was an exit to your right and with your orientation, that would take you out of the dungeon (if you could fit through it) or at least to a ring that's further out than where everyone started.

The pixies did say there was something outside the dungeon this time, although the # of rooms were the same. So maybe that makes sense

[Danny]

Thanks somehow in my mInd i was thinking left, but i cpnfirmed and it was rght so true but keep in mind it was only for small classes, maybe it was some sort of secret room / passage type thing. Bit yes it does seem the dingeon is not a perfect square / rectangle

[Autumn]

Yeah it's just weird from a mapping sense, Danny. That's the only case of a room behind our starting squares.

[Danny]

I searched this mornimg but only found some dirty stained paladin underwear.

[Danny]

Yeah, i wouldnt be surprised of that room had some pretty cool stuff in it

[JAG]

Yeah it's just weird from a mapping sense, Danny. That's the only case of a room behind our starting squares.

But we know something weird happened with bhlloy and one of Mau/SK's orientation as well. I was thinking maybe at the side of the dungeon it wraps around to the far side? So Mau for example went right and went from one side of the dungeon to the other which let SK go right and meet with him. It would probably make more sense to explain it on graph paper.

[PurdueBrad]

PB - interested in knowing your move plans today. Any reason for you to stick around? My room is empty so I'll be moving somewhere, but if you are staying put I will head forward and maybe there is a chance we meet up

I'm really, really torn right now. There is a chest in my room that I can't open unless I try to bash it (no guarantee to open it) but it requires a separate action which means I would have to stay through the move phase.

At the same token though, I want to go forward a room to see if someone has been there before or is there now. I figure given the number of rooms that I have access to that I should eventually run in to somebody OR be in a room that somebody else has been in.

IF I stay put, I'll bash the chest with one action, examine my scroll with another, sleep, and then I guess chill in the morning.

Right now I think I'm going to move forward a room to look for overlap and then I can come back the next day if need be.

Bhlloy, if you move and I move we double our chances of at least finding out where each other are. If you end up in the chest room, take a hack at it as I killed the snake that guards it.

[PurdueBrad]

Can anyone confirm whether or not the map I posted worked?

[Danny]

What if we are all in dungeons in paralell universes and the mau who met up with simba was not the mau of this dimension

[Danny]

Simba should head to the room i was in with the throne cause i know he cant wait to be king

[bhlloy]

Yeah this sounds good to me. No sense in one of us wasting a day on the off chance we might be facing each other. I'll head forward and see where I end up

[PurdueBrad]

Bhlloy, I just read about your character, sounds awesome. I really hope we run into each other because I think we can both help each other a freaking ton.

[PurdueBrad]

MECHANICS QUESTION: IF I were to enter a room that someone else was leaving and they were moving to enter my same room (in other words, we would essentially be passing each other in the passageway) are we given notification of it or do we only find out when we compare room notes in here?

[Danny]

MECHANICS QUESTION: if one of te characters breaks wind while passing in pb's scenario, does that change the answer?

[PurdueBrad]

Watch yourself battlemage, you could find yourself at the end of my sword.

[Thomkal]

Searching the stables found nothing so I'm moving ahead to the next level of the dungeon and probably my death!

[JAG]

PB, if you go left, it's possible you'll end up in a room I've been in. Another potential bonus is you'll have the option to flee back to your room without losing a day to go back and loot the chest if you do happen to go to that room.

Based on bhlloy's orientation, I don't think you two could be facing each other because for both of you the dark bricks are to the right.

[Ragone]

Had to fight off a trap and a spider.. managed to survive.. Got some lewt!

+1 dagger and gold.. I think i'm going to head right again

[mckerney]

So mckerney, what were the exits from the sword and shield room? I assume up is forward in your map? What were the exits from the table room?

Up is forward in my starting room. Exits are directions without the black border, so forward and left in room 1, then forward and back in room 2.

[PurdueBrad]

Agreed JAG that Bhlloy and I are not facing each other. The way I've read it is that he is still skirting the perimeter and I'm skirting the second ring. So my move would keep me in the second ring and his would move him into the second ring, hopefully landing us somewhere in the series of rooms that I've been in. If I wasn't hoping to bump into somebody in the second ring JAG I would head to the left to see if those rooms matched up.

[mckerney]

It worked for me.

bhlloy has to be on the second ring or else he shouldn't have access to the darker bricks from the room he's in.

[JAG]

This question makes certain assumptions about the dungeon.

You must've been a Mage in a former life.

[ntndeacon]

We found an interesting scroll with a recipe on it.

[bhlloy]

I think it's pretty clear from Abe's response and some of the weirdness that Autumn and JAG have noted from peoples responses that we aren't in a conventional place here. What that means I'm not sure and can't really go into detail with at work but I certainly don't think we are in a square dungeon where everyone can meet in the middle

[JAG]

The sprites tell you, "This Dungeon has 169 rooms, which is the same it always is. But there is something more outside it!

Here's one of the sprite hints. Last time I believe the dungeon was a 13 x 13 cube. That sort of jives with some of our observations thus far (some starting rooms being one space from each other, the darker bricks starting two rooms in from where we started, sprite hint above that it's the 'same it always is' and has 169 rooms). What is the 'something more outside it' though?

[JAG]

I can't wrap my head around the fact that you've both gone right after being oriented towards the center of the dungeon and met up one room over.

somebody's going to do the math on this one pretty quickly

A hint from Abe.

Other than the possibility that there are some access points that allow you to travel to the far side of the dungeon, I am at a loss. Hopefully the clues I posted will give someone else an idea.

[Julio Riddols]

Sweet, some herbs. Now we have to go somewhere we haven't been yet. The exits are backward, right, and left.. I came from the right..

[Chief Rum]

I would have to guess that there is some sort of transporter device somewhere in the dungeon that transports you to some room outside of the dungeon or something like that, and then transports you back. Purely a guess, though.

[Autumn]

Yeah, I think we're definitely not in a conventional 13x13 square, at least not all starting on teh outside ring. Bhlloy has seen dark bricks on both sides of him, for one thing. Could there be two centers to the dungeon? That doesn't seem to match what Abe told us to begin, but would explain how two people could go right and end up in teh same room.

[Zinto]

What is odd about the room Julio and I are in is that I can move forward, left and backwards while he can move backwards, left, and right. Not sure if anyone else who is together have seen something similar.

[Autumn]

But we know something weird happened with bhlloy and one of Mau/SK's orientation as well. I was thinking maybe at the side of the dungeon it wraps around to the far side? So Mau for example went right and went from one side of the dungeon to the other which let SK go right and meet with him. It would probably make more sense to explain it on graph paper.

I think this may be right also.

[Autumn]

Searching the stables found nothing so I'm moving ahead to the next level of the dungeon and probably my death!

are you going left thomkal? Were there any other exits?

[Autumn]

What is odd about the room Julio and I are in is that I can move forward, left and backwards while he can move backwards, left, and right. Not sure if anyone else who is together have seen something similar.

The directions are given to you from the perspective of what door you just came through. So you guys came in from right angles to each other.

[Chief Rum]

JAG, dubb, Chief, bhlloy, mckerney, Kwhit, I'd love to have a description of your rooms you've been in so I can piece together this map a bit more.

Okay, let me see if I can lay it all out. Note: All directions I give here are from the perspective of "forward==deeper into the dungeon; backward==further out from center of dungeon; right and left staying same level"

ROOM ONE: I started in a room with a star in the middle, a chute on the left side of the room, and two exits, one forward and one to the left. You can ignore the chute; it goes nowhere.

ROOM TWO: I went left. The room I entered was described as having no features at all, except for an Earth Imp, which I killed. It has exits going left and going forward.

I got a Horse Figurine from the imp, so I was able to move right away. I went forward, deeper into the dungeon.

ROOM THREE: This rooms looks like a dried out cave, with old stalactites and stuff. I fell into a shallow pit in here and encountered a Trap Door Spider, which I killed (barely). I could go four directions from this room, forward, backward, right or left. I went left.

ROOM FOUR: This room has a table with four scrolls on it, and I had the option to grab a scroll. When I did, the scroll turned out to be a Paper Sprite I needed to kill (which I did, now I am Level Two, yay). I have no idea if the other scrolls are also Paper Sprites.

My options here are to go forward, backward or right. I'm not going forward (deeper) yet, so I am likely to go backward to get to a room I haven't yet been.

[Simbo Klice]

Ugh, that sucked mauboy. I don't know what we're going to do next, but I don't think moving would be a good idea. I'll heal you tomorrow morning so you can at least move again after.

[Zinto]

The directions are given to you from the perspective of what door you just came through. So you guys came in from right angles to each other.

Ah, thanks Autumn :)

[Chief Rum]

Hmm, just realized I just did a bunch of editing of a post in, ostensibly, a WW game. I was just trying to get my map above right.

[Julio Riddols]

So that would be forward for you, left for me to get into a new room?

[Zinto]

I believe that is the case, I have now drawn up a map since I realized that without one I would be incredibly lost.

[Autumn]

All right my brethren. I give you ...

THE GOOGLE DOC OF DOOM

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0Am_aQV5ue-DKdGpzd0swajY3b0p4bkh1dXNSWi03S1E

The first sheet is the info I have on people's movements and rooms.

The second sheet is a series of mini-maps I've put together. Light blue indicates a room that exists beyond a door, presumably, but that hasn't been entered. A gray indicates a direction where it seems there is no room. Dark blue indicates the next level of darker bricks, though I haven't added that on all of them. I think everyone who has seen the third row of rooms has seen darker bricks, but correct me if that's wrong.

I left it so it can be edited, though it might be better to just have me make edits to keep it consistent. Or make notes on a separate sheet. I will keep adding info I collect and hopefully connecting some of those mini maps.

I will even let JAG and Dubb look at it, even though they've done diddly-squat to help me make it. I should call myself Chicken Little.

[Autumn]

Thanks, Chief. So you are in the second layer of dark bricks, correct?

[Zinto]

Thanks Autumn!

[Darth Vilus]

NTN, Jackal and Darth, what room are you in now?

I'm in a room with an old woman who wants to tell my fortune. Why there is an old fortune teller in the middle of the dungeon I have no idea. And she has this look that seems to say "I'm lonely...." Which is creeping me the fuck out!

I can go backwards, forwards (into the darker bricks), right, or left

[Autumn]

It seems Ragone might be near you, Chief. He found a room that was cave-like. Compare details and see if it's the same.

[Abe Sargent]

Heh heh heh

[Autumn]

I'm in a room with an old woman who wants to tell my fortune. Why there is an old fortune teller in the middle of the dungeon I have no idea. And she has this look that seems to say "I'm lonely...." Which is creeping me the fuck out!

Send one of those bards in! Or who was it who said he was the handsomest character here ... oh yeah, Danny.

Danny, yo'ure needed urgently!

[Autumn]

Heh heh heh

Laugh it up, laugh it up.

[Autumn]

Kwhit, if I don't see you around in a bit I'm going to revoke your leadership!

[Julio Riddols]

I updated my movement and whatnot in your doc, Autumn.

[Autumn]

Hopefully everyone is remembering that their directions are always given from the perspective of their movement. So if you go right, forward is no longer towards the center of the dungeon, left is.

[Autumn]

Maybe just highlight any fields you change so I can make sure I update/correct my minimaps.

[Julio Riddols]

Maybe just highlight any fields you change so I can make sure I update/correct my minimaps.

Will do.

[Chief Rum]

Thanks, Chief. So you are in the second layer of dark bricks, correct?

I have moved forward one room. Never got any brick info. Is dark bricks the outermost layer? If it is, then yeah, second layer of dark bricks, I guess.

[Autumn]

Maybe I did not understand your info, Chief? The room with the table in it is three rooms deep into the dungeon, correct?

[Chief Rum]

It seems Ragone might be near you, Chief. He found a room that was cave-like. Compare details and see if it's the same.

It's tough to say. If I am reading things right, and that cave room Ragone found is the same as mine (and it sure seems to, he fought a spider and mentions a trap; I fought a Trap Door Spider), then I am in the room he was in before that. Your spreadsheet calls this room an altar room, but I am in a room with a table holding four scrolls (well, three, I grabbed one and it turned out to be a Paper Sprite).

[JAG]

No, using his directions forward is towards the center of the dungeon (no matter his orientation), left would mean he moved to the room left of his current one (left if you're facing the center of the dungeon), etc...

[Chief Rum]

Maybe I did not understand your info, Chief? The room with the table in it is three rooms deep into the dungeon, correct?

No, it's two rooms deep. I only forward once (from the Imp room to the cave room). I went sideways (parallel) twice, once out of me starting room, and then again out of the cave room.

[Chief Rum]

No, using his directions forward is towards the center of the dungeon (no matter his orientation), left would mean he moved to the room left of his current one (left if you're facing the center of the dungeon), etc...

Yeah, JAG has got it.

I thought it would be confusing sticking with a relative perspective, instead of an absolute one.

[JAG]

I believe I will be in someone's starting room today. There's only six or so people it can be by my reckoning (not accounting for oddities we've noticed thus far), so hopefully one of you six would like to meet up and form a party.

[Chief Rum]

I changed my mind. I am going to go deeper into the dungeon ("forward" from the absolute perspective, "right" from my relative perspective).

[Autumn]

I see, JAG. Got turned around somehow.

[Autumn]

It's tough to say. If I am reading things right, and that cave room Ragone found is the same as mine (and it sure seems to, he fought a spider and mentions a trap; I fought a Trap Door Spider), then I am in the room he was in before that. Your spreadsheet calls this room an altar room, but I am in a room with a table holding four scrolls (well, three, I grabbed one and it turned out to be a Paper Sprite).

Sounds like differnet caves here, or something else Abe is laughing about right now. He said he made a sacrifice on an altar. Doesn't sound much like your room.

[Thomkal]

are you going left thomkal? Were there any other exits?

Yes I'm going left and the only other exit was backwards

[Autumn]

I listed Chief's extra move in new columns, so the days don't really match, but you guys will have to figure it out.

[Poli]

I listed Chief's extra move in new columns, so the days don't really match, but you guys will have to figure it out.

:rant:

[Autumn]

Also the color highlighting I used in Excel differs from waht there is on Google. So there's a discrepancy between some of the blues that's not meant to mean anything. The few rooms I've marked as darker blue (like on Bhlloy's map) are the shade indicating the next level.

[KWhit]

I'm here. Just don't have much access here at work. Autumn, when you suggest ee go right, do you mean from the way I'm facing?

[mauchow]

Simba … I agree. Sit still for now. I have no means of healing as my bundle of herbs are gone.. I will continue to follow your orders.

I am on the road yet for the next few hours. I'm eating at the moment..

[Autumn]

Kwhit - Yes, I haven't been in that room before. The room behind me (your left) just has some dead goo. So it's either check out this next room, or go back into the library.

[KWhit]

Let's go into the new room to my right.

[Simbo Klice]

Simba … I agree. Sit still for now. I have no means of healing as my bundle of herbs are gone.. I will continue to follow your orders.

I am on the road yet for the next few hours. I'm eating at the moment..

Alright, sounds good. I'll heal you first tomorrow, at that point if you want to do some looking around we'd have to split up because I'm also out of goodies and can only heal once a day.

[ntndeacon]

We are planning to go left during the movement phase.

[Autumn]

Okay, do you want to send that in for us, Kwhit?

[Abe Sargent]

These will be fought today:


http://www.headinjurytheater.com/dnd%20crawling%20claws.jpg

[Autumn]

More like Leaping Claws.

[Poli]

More like Leaping Claws.

Danny should like that hands on approach.

[KWhit]

Okay, do you want to send that in for us, Kwhit?

It is sent.

[Abe Sargent]

I am processing actions....


and I just wanna say....



Uh oh....

[Chief Rum]

Damn, it better not be me!

[Thomkal]

I am processing actions....


and I just wanna say....



Uh oh....

this does not sound promising for my foray deeper into the dungeon....

[Abe Sargent]

Oh no! Not everyone will survive today's movement action!

[Chief Rum]

I went to the third level of rooms. It is distinctly possible I'm the lucky loser.

[CrimsonFox]

I went to the third level of rooms. It is distinctly possible I'm the lucky loser.


Come on, Bards! Let'ssssssss hear it!

"Have you HEARD about the LONEsome LOsssser
Beaten BY the Leaping Handsssss every time..."

[PurdueBrad]

Hmmm...worried that that could be me as I've been lucky to survive two other times. Third times a charm?

[mckerney]

Oh no! Not everyone will survive today's movement action!

Please let me live, please let me live...

[Ragone]

I'm pretty sure its going to be me..
In retrospect.. i might should have stayed put in the room i was in..

[Abe Sargent]

Actions have been all sent

[PurdueBrad]

Wow Abe, you keep putting some very tough choices in front of me.

[JAG]

RIP KWhit

PB, I'm in your starting room.

[PurdueBrad]

REALLY JAG!!!! AWESOME!!!

[mckerney]

I am alive. I'm in a room with 4 exits, a star on the floor and a lamp.

[PurdueBrad]

I'll add your map to my map and post it on Google docs. As soon as I'm done in this room I'll move back your way and we'll meet up...assuming you want to.

[Chief Rum]

Crappy way to die, KWhit. Good luck to you.

And...I believe I have found a key part of the map. I am in the gong room, with a mauve star in the middle.

It's pretty clear I started near a corner and rather than heading "deeper" into the maze, I have merely traversed the corner. This seems clear from the directions I can go too.

[bhlloy]

I'm in the skeleton warrior room. Somebody had been here before, I don't have time to o through the thread rigt now but if I'm close to somebody let me know

[Zinto]

Alright Julio, it seems we are in the room that was to the left of your starting room today. I am thinking that today we start a real party and take a look at that iron maiden or do a search of the room whichever you would rather do.

[Zinto]

I'm in the skeleton warrior room. Somebody had been here before, I don't have time to o through the thread rigt now but if I'm close to somebody let me know


If there is a pit and four skeletons then Julio and I are right by you and can meet you next movement turn.

[JAG]

I'll add your map to my map and post it on Google docs. As soon as I'm done in this room I'll move back your way and we'll meet up...assuming you want to.

I definitely would like to, I think our classes should compliment each other well. It'll give you a chance to get the chest and it's goodies on the way back to me also although it's going to cost us some time.

[Ragone]

It's Entirely possible i'm in Chief's last room now.. I'm in a room with scrolls..

[Autumn]

*sigh*

[PurdueBrad]

Yeah, if you don't mind spending the time to link up, I'm good with it too! I'll split what is in the chest with you when we link up.

[Zinto]

Well sorry to hear KWhit and hope all is at least ok for you Autumn

[Abe Sargent]

Yeah, the first one to win The Dungeon is the first one to die in the sequel. Sucks

[JAG]

How hard do the leprechauns hit? Maybe I can take one out while I wait for you to get back and at least get some modest exp.

[Chief Rum]

It's Entirely possible i'm in Chief's last room now.. I'm in a room with scrolls..

Yup, the presence of the corner pretty much confirms it. You are one room behind me, and we are both along the outside skirts of the dungeon.

Are there four scrolls or three scrolls? I would guess there are three.

I appear to be in your starting room. Did you ring the gong?

[Chief Rum]

Ragone, would you like to meet up? I see you're a Bard and I am a Druid. We could use a fighter, but, whatever, two of us are better than one. We are both Qwith, so, hey, we got that going for us. ;)

[Ragone]

There are 4 scrolls.. but the room could be magical in nature, i did not ring the gong.. i had way too many bad experiences in old d&d.. and i didn't wanna die in the first move :)

[PurdueBrad]

How hard do the leprechauns hit? Maybe I can take one out while I wait for you to get back and at least get some modest exp.

Hey JAG, the leprechauns are not bad IF you can get past their first magic missile. I was hit for 5 in the first encounter on a magic missile and then for 9 in the second encounter. They only seem to have one per encounter though, so that's good. They give 600 xp each I believe and they had some $ and I found a scroll on the first.

[Autumn]

Ragone, did you go right to get to the scroll room?

[Chief Rum]

There are 4 scrolls.. but the room could be magical in nature, i did not ring the gong.. i had way too many bad experiences in old d&d.. and i didn't wanna die in the first move :)

Which room is magical? The one you're in or the one I am in?

I am planning on ringing the gong.

If there are four scrolls, then clearly that room resets. When I grabbed a scroll, I had to fight a Paper Sprite which was hard to hit, and I couldn't run away from it. I dealt it 9 HP damage before it died, with the last hit being a 3 HP hit, so it is at least a 7 HP creature.

Of course, maybe I got a bad dice roll and the other scrolls are actual scrolls? Who is to say you will get the Paper Sprite if you grab a scroll?

[bhlloy]

If there is a pit and four skeletons then Julio and I are right by you and can meet you next movement turn.

No mention of a pit yet, but there were 4 skeleton warriors, one in each corner. Sound like the same place?

[Autumn]

I did not know him well, but Kwhit was a good man. Well, an evil man, but good at being evil. We were sprung upon by five hands. A sight no man should have to see. They were surprised by me, not able to hear my light tread approaching and I killed one of them. Two blows later I felled another leaping hand. But they were gravely wounding me. Kwhit, Kwhit did not fare so well. He was dropped by those awful, awful hands. I had to retreat. With my wounds, and without his aid I do not think I could kill the other three.

Damn you dungeon. Damn you!

[Autumn]

Which room is magical? The one you're in or the one I am in?

I am planning on ringing the gong.

If there are four scrolls, then clearly that room resets. When I grabbed a scroll, I had to fight a Paper Sprite which was hard to hit, and I couldn't run away from it. I dealt it 9 HP damage before it died, with the last hit being a 3 HP hit, so it is at least a 7 HP creature.

Of course, maybe I got a bad dice roll and the other scrolls are actual scrolls? Who is to say you will get the Paper Sprite if you grab a scroll?

I'm not sure it's the same room, Chief. It doesn't seem like it from the maps.

Ragone, are the scrolls on a table?

[PurdueBrad]

Sorry KWhit, sorry Autumn. I pray to my goddess for mercy on you.

[Chief Rum]

Ragone, did you go right to get to the scroll room?

Autumn, if you look at my map on the last page, Ragone's gong room is to the right of my Room [4]. Ragone is in Room [4] right now, and appears to have come from Room [3].

The altar room Ragone visited is presumeably to the right of Room [3] and down from the gong room I am in right now.

[Zinto]

No mention of a pit yet, but there were 4 skeleton warriors, one in each corner. Sound like the same place?


Yep, if there are four exits one on each side then you are definitely in the same place.

[Ragone]

Well lets figure this out, my exits are right,back,left..

i went forward on day one, right on two.. and right today..

You want me to stay put in this room chief?

Yes, there are 4 scrolls in the room, i'm figuring like you said it may magically reset, i'm a bit worse for ware after the trapped pit and spider room, so little leary of having another combat

[Autumn]

Bhlloy, which way did you go to get to the skeletons?

[Chief Rum]

I'm not sure it's the same room, Chief. It doesn't seem like it from the maps.

Ragone, are the scrolls on a table?

No, I am pretty certain. Too many interconnections.

Ragone has been in a room like a cave where he fought a spider, and then went to a room with scrolls, both like me. I am now in a gong room, which is what Ragone started with.

It makes sense if you realize that (again, going off of my map) this corner of the dungeon must be to the left of the scroll room (Room [4]) and above the imp room Room [2]).

[Autumn]

Chief can you look at my Google Doc, Sheet two, at the map of your stuff (at the bottom) and of Ragone's (top left) and see if they make sense to you? I'm bad at rotating these in my head.

[PurdueBrad]

JAG, how many rooms have you been in and what directions did you take to get in my starting room?

[bhlloy]

Sounds like the same room Zinto. One of the exits is small person size yeah? I'd love to meet up with you guys, think that would be a hell of a team

Autumn - I went forward

[PurdueBrad]

I'm hoping one of you talented bards puts together a song honoring the brave, but evil, Kwhit

[Autumn]

Interesting, so bhlloy which direction is the small exit to you?

[Chief Rum]

Well lets figure this out, my exits are right,back,left..

i went forward on day one, right on two.. and right today..

You want me to stay put in this room chief?

Yes, there are 4 scrolls in the room, i'm figuring like you said it may magically reset, i'm a bit worse for ware after the trapped pit and spider room, so little leary of having another combat

I just moved up a level, so I am a little better off. My other idea was to maybe have us do parallel courses and then see if we can buy the Horse Figurine at the next Djinn sale to meet up. That way one of us doesn't have to stay put, and we can continue to explore.

But if you're not doing so hot with HP, we need to get you with me, so we can "split the damage". So I will ring the gong and stay put and wait for you. Or maybe I will go on to the altar room and you can go back to the gong room, and then I'll wait in the altar room. Either way, we're stuck in areas we have already seen for a couple days. :(

[bhlloy]

Interesting, so bhlloy which direction is the small exit to you?

To the left

[Zinto]

Sounds like the same room Zinto. One of the exits is small person size yeah? I'd love to meet up with you guys, think that would be a hell of a team

Autumn - I went forward


Yep sounds like the same room to me. If you search watch out for the pit it did five fall damage to me when I was in there. Yes so tomorrow I plan on moving to the room we just left so we can meet up.

[Zinto]

It seems at least according to my map that you started a room away from where I started.

[Ragone]

So, just to check that my orientation is correct.. i'll need to go backwards.. and you'll need to go forward?

[JAG]

JAG, how many rooms have you been in and what directions did you take to get in my starting room?

I've only been in a few rooms, basically two rooms to the right of your starting room and one beyond that (though briefly). Basically once we connect we can either continue along the second ring (which should be untouched rooms as of yet, I think) or we can go to the darker bricks though I'd rather get a level or two and some upgraded equipment first.

Do you remember how many hps the leprechauns have?

[Autumn]

I won't link the maps yet, but if that's the same skeleton room then it looks like if you go forward you'd be in the room with the beds that had the ghouls in it.

Zinto, what isthe room you and Julio are in?

[Chief Rum]

Chief can you look at my Google Doc, Sheet two, at the map of your stuff (at the bottom) and of Ragone's (top left) and see if they make sense to you? I'm bad at rotating these in my head.

Here's how it should look, Autumn:



[?]---[4]---[5]---?
.|.....|.....|
.|.....|.....|
.|.....|.....|
[2]---[3]---[6]
.|.....|
.|.....|
.|.....|
.?.....?

[JAG]

Autumn, you seem to have been really screwed on room placement. What's that, like three lethal rooms around where you've traveled?

[mckerney]

I am alive. I'm in a room with 4 exits, a star on the floor and a lamp.

Nevermind me, only two exits. I'll update the info when I can get home a.d change my map.

[Chief Rum]

5 is the gong room. It is where I am at right now, and where Ragone started.
6 is the altar room Ragone visited.
4 is the scrolls room Ragone is at right now.

The other numbers conform to my previous map. I messed up, though, put a "?" along the bottom left where my room [1] should be (my starting point).

[1] My starting room (chute)
[2] Imp Room
[3] Cave/Spider Room
[4] Scroll room
[5] Gong room (Ragone's start room)
[6] Altar room

[Ragone]

What page is the link with your map on autumn?

[PurdueBrad]

JAG- I think the leprechauns have about 8, maybe 10 hitpoints but they were hard to hit. I wonder if size matters?

This is my updated map with your current location and mine. There are a couple ways we can go to explore before going into the red section I think:

PB/JAG map (https://docs.google.com/document/d/1VBSYjRRZPSFa4pzZSCsgP_Jg09Z1oytAdykieGbhdqc/edit)

[Zinto]

I won't link the maps yet, but if that's the same skeleton room then it looks like if you go forward you'd be in the room with the beds that had the ghouls in it.

Zinto, what isthe room you and Julio are in?


We headed forward from where I was looking, to the left of where who Julio was looking and if my map is correct to the right of the center of dungeon. There is an iron maiden in the room that we can examine.

[Chief Rum]

So, just to check that my orientation is correct.. i'll need to go backwards.. and you'll need to go forward?

Well, that is mixing perspectives. If you go backwards, you go back to the cave spider. If I go forwards, I go what was "left" for you in your starting room.

But now that I see the altar room has only one exit, it doesn't make sense for us to go that way. You should stay where you're at, and I will return to you tomorrow.

Then Friday, we will travel together to the spider room. And then after that (Saturday/Monday) we will finally reach a room neither of us has been.

And we know the Spider resets.

[Autumn]

So JAg the bricks didn't turn darker in that direction?

[Autumn]

Welcome to Google Docs (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0Am_aQV5ue-DKdGpzd0swajY3b0p4bkh1dXNSWi03S1E)

[Ragone]

Fair enough, think i will leave the scrolls alone today

[Autumn]

We headed forward from where I was looking, to the left of where who Julio was looking and if my map is correct to the right of the center of dungeon. There is an iron maiden in the room that we can examine.

Don't you mean right from where you were headed? I thought you guys came in from opposite directions.

[Autumn]

Hmm, I guess I had the orientation wrong, you guys were coming from right angles. Okay, updated your map. What are the exits from teh iron maiden room.

[dubb93]

It was a good day for the light. The Axis of Evil is no more, and the darker bricks led to a Berzerk Trow(now deceased).
