I dont, just in case there is a dungeon 3.

"Mandarin" kicked the most ass. I mean Apocalypse

Hmmm, yeah, I remember arranging for Apocalypse's death. That was good times!

Oh, sorry NTN, I mean Alan did it.

Yeah I wanna hear about the great tunnel explotation of Zinto and Julio.

Gee thanks...

better than dying. Who knows, maybe we'll meet up. YOu can come with me to vanquish level 4 evil.

Hello? Can somebody tell the normal sized people in our party what happened this afternoon?

Just tell me you guys didn't take the tentacle down there with you

Just hold that thought I guess. If you ever get anything we can trade. Have any fun nondeath encounters today?

Clearly this is not me given my day 1 "performance"

Not really, killed a ninja and have something interesting happening in the morning

Thom! What's happnin Thom! YOu kicking evil butt and gettin lotsa stuff?

Jackal, time to start talking about movement - I'm feeling a little cocky, think it is time for the next level of bricks.

We've now been in five rooms on this level and I think we've geared up to the point where it is time to move up the fear factor a little bit. If I knew every room on this level would offer XP/rewards like this one I would be OK with it, but Gelatinous Cube's aren't going to get us to the Top 5.

I ended up moving and not exploring the tree. That took me to attacking Pegasi. Only way out is up to level 2. So I horseyed back to the forest to check out the stairs after all. Then I can go back and go to level 4 to kill big evil stuff.

What is it with Jackal and cubes....it's like a fetish with him. He attracts them :)

I really do think Thom is a contender tho and he's just being coy! :)

Go Thom go!

Crimson, any chance I could get an extra healing potion for tomorrows movement? Like I said, I could give you the gladius or future considerations? It wont help you now, but should sell for enough to get you at least a potion back.

And that was post 500! Half way there!

awww thanks CF. I can tell you I was the first to reach 4th level, sadly I've been passed by many now since.

pfff! kid's stuff...

I can tell you I wasnt the last to reach level 5, I hope....

FWIW, if later it becomes even more clear that I have no chance to win, I am willing to pool whatever I have late in the game to help those I root for achieve victory.

The good news is: I successfully Bashed the chest open!
The good news is: There was a potion and 2 scrolls in the chest!
The bad news is: The Potion broke and destroyed the scrolls.
The good news is: There was also a Javelin in the chest-which I hope is the Javelin of Lightning I need for my bow recipe!

HAHAHAHA OH NO!
man you destroyed the scrolls too?? I guess they got all wet and unreadable... The magic ink ran! :)

I hope it does end up being the right Javelin. Sounds cool to have a recipe complete. What's the bow? Bow of lightning?

Or the one that Hank the Ranger used in the Dungeon and Dragons cartoon?

We found a nice cache of gold and a couple other items, some magic powder and a potion of some sort.

Suffice it to say we're all doing well in the gold department now I think. Now we can focus on killing shit.

Yep a Bow of Lightning, but I will envision it as the one Hank the Ranger used because that was freaking cool. ;)

I still have that bow recipe Julio...

trying to. me and my minions won

I'm guessing many folks are getting some pretty stellar gear by this point in the game.

Just looking at the XP charts, the mixed classes have a huge break compared to the other two going from Level 6 to Level 7. From that point on, it looks like it will be a sprint with all the classes needing 25K per level to close out (OK, 23K for mixed to get to 8, but close enough).

don't know if I can even have another weapon. And am also not sure I'm going shopping tomorrow. Just kill the stuff and you won't need healing. :) You're badass now aren't you?

I'll be interested in grabbing that soon I think. Let me get something to allow for the trade to occur next djinni sale.

Not really, I dont have enough damage. If I am able to get lightning bolt, I will feel pretty bad ass

Or even acid arrow or icy blast

you've got magic missile now tho. use that to keel. That and Magic Armor or defense.

Let's get this party started!

Actiosn done, discuss away

uh oh

*checks the roster for deaths and sees none*

That's right! Transport yourself to Daddy!


I don't even want you to look at me...

Don't you mean, " dn't vn wnt t lk t m"?

.....

But she's going to someone who likes pink at least!

Night all, see yo whores after action time!

So ntndeacon, Ragone, what happens when you take those actions? My search of the room did not turn up anything.

PB accepts 3 potions of healing and 1 bundle of herbs

In other words...lets do this thing!!!

JAG, I'm probably going to have to equip this stupid shield because I can't let it eat my current one (mainly because my current one is pretty freakin' good). Can't figure out another way past this.

Sorry about the curse dude, it really, really sucks!

Still debating this whole shield thing...not sure it can help me in today's battle, having her OR my original one. Hmmmm...

JAG, if you log on, let me know what you think shield-wise. I was able to make the Giant miss twice in our last battle, meaning that I do need some sort of shield here and I'm afraid she'll eat my other one before we start the battle. Thoughts?

Alright, for everyone's enjoyment, Abe, I will wield the cursed shield...

This is even worse. It's one thing when Abe curses me but now I am knowingly and willingly taking on a curse. Sheesh!

Well it wasn't like I was trying to destroy them oh my all caps and periods. :D

It's nice that you have finally accepted your fate in Abe's Dungeon's games PB. Everybody should just pass their cursed items straight to you from now on. :D

I agree.

So did the two yells come from Jackal and Hoops? Got fresh with the fairy did you?

You'd think so! But no, we're happy having her follow us around. She's much better company than Danny!

Pretty fairy > ugly cow

Honestly, we did her a service! She gets a life of adventure now, to see some new places. Who knows what was being done to her in that place...

Sure, we're expecting her to help us out along the way, but that's only fair!

I have a wand of wonder from the cube hoops, by the way. Can make random things happen. Not sure how much I want to mess around with that, but get me liquored up first and we'll see!

JAG and PB attract curses, eh?

Judging by karma, we can see who -really- has the evil souls.

Dear Ghouls,

Go kill DV, he's gotten too cocky.

Love,

The Drunken Harp

Searching, searching searching, we'll spend our morning searching .. Searching, and gawking, at faeries!

I wonder if she has a name.

Hey fairy, do you have a name?!

Dodecadola! That's not a good name for her though.

Don't let her eat your hand! Word of advice? Keep your shield arm above your belt. All those pushups are gonna come in handy now.

Maybe we should change our team name to "Two Men and a Fairy"

I guess I should get ready for work. Probably another busy day for me.

The best part about that, in my mind, is that I was at a point where I said "I might as well make this thread more interesting" and went to take the shield. I figured that PB was going to have a lot of fun mocking whatever curse I received.

But lo and behold, I'm an idiot and didn't read the rules properly - I can't equip a shield! So it had to move on, and it found its rightful resting spot today. We all get to continue mocking PB (and JAG, who has finally had the PB taint rub off on him). All in all, I consider the 25 gold that I spent to hold the shield before it transferred to PB money well spent.

You know, I've basically become the Handy Manny or Dora of this dungeon, I'm carrying around a bunch of tools/items that talk. If only they sang

"I'm the sword, I'm the sword, I'm the sword, I'm the sword, I'M...THE...SWORD!"

Chief.. i got an exp bonus.. debating on a morning action now

We now have 4 charges of the lock picking wand... and I have 25 extra HP that have to be destroyed first

Interesting day. First off I have no idea what is in my inventory. Second I suspect if I ask Abe again I shall end up cursed!

H.A.H.A. N.I.C.E.

Action time!

done

I.C.Y. B.L.A.S.T. H.A.S. B.E.E.N. A.W.E.S.O.M.E.

Perfect timing Abe, I'm on lunch and am really curious about this combat session. Good luck JAG!

Okay, you wield Sheila and something happens....




Purdue Brad has completed the Sexy Set!




Sheila and The Dispeller combine to form a new power of items!

The Dispeller is now a +4 sword!
Sheila is now a +4 shield!

However, the enhancement of their power comes with an enhancement of their new curse.


Sorry PB, but these items and curses were made PRE-game, just as an FYI

1). These two items are now mega-cursed. Mega-cursed items cannot be removed EVEN with a Remove spell, scroll, remedy pot, etc

2). The Dispeller's curse is back in full swing. No more vowels for you in Dispeller posts. You must also post in The Dispeller's color for Dispeller posts

3). Sheila has a curse as well. You must post in magenta for Sheila. Additionally, you must end every line by calling the person you are speaking to with a term of endearment - such as Honey, darling, cutie-pie, etc

Because of the alternating influences of sword and shield, each post you make most alternate from a Dispeller post to a Sheila post. Beginning now!

Abe REALLY doesn't like PB's posts. You could have just flubbed rolls and killed him Abe!

Yep, but might be a little harder to kill him now with a pair of +4 items.

I wonder if he'll keep posting at his regular rate, or just try to shut it down to avoid the pain and suffering from these curses?

Y.A.Y. C.U.R.S.E.D. 4. L.I.F.E.

H.E.Y., A.T. L.E.A.S.T. Y.O.U. G.O.T. U.S.E.F.U.L. I.T.E.M.S. W.I.T.H. Y.O.U.R. C.U.R.S.E. !.

I think PB and the shield make a lovely couple.

What if they had kids. I suspect the shield will get PB pregnant.

H? I? J? A? G?
