((Ah, nothing like looking over the tome while waiting for time to pass..!))

*Bigf01t reads the tome intently, quickly shuffling between pages while waiting for his voice to catch up with this thoughts*

((How through it is everyone? I've got 127 words and all bar four of the pages' general meanings (or at least what I think they are). Turns out I have only just crossed the halfway mark. Yay.))

((Hey Derm, only three more "unfortunate accidents" and you get to smash people! Isn't this exciting!))
Reasons to kill Derm as soon as he spawns:
1) Souls.
2) Life.

Do not let him get to much power :P
reasons not to kill derm as soon as he spawns:
1) sense of fair play.
2) first row seats to the apocalypse.

Clearly running multiple missions at the same time is a terrible idea.  The epic battle to see which team can cock it up worse has escalated again.

And Larry kinda gets blueballed in all this; just left with a raging bone spear and no where to put it.

((Why would you want to kill Derm? The most dangerous players are those with more souls, it's not dependant on the particular player. There are many known words, so everybody has the same threat level when they start.))

((I have at least guesses for about as many words.))

Oh don't you even start with that I've been waiting fucking months.
((Try not to be so omnicidal next life. You'll reincarnate as someone who not everyone wants to kill.))

((Besides, Derm does cool, possibly deadly science. You gotta love cool, possibly deadly science, right?))
((Only when the words are public knowledge. AMPAK!))

((Derm has...talents.))

((Somebody's fame or infame most of the time play against the individual who has them. At least in competitive games))

((Can someone tell me the feats of great Derm in the original Perplexicon? Because I haven't finished reading it all and I don't particularly pay attention to who does each thing))

Not much of anything, actually. By the time I got in the second time after my first stupid death, we got into the open world soon afterwards and the whole 'Everyone spawns at the same place + ELDRITCH HORROR OH NOES' pretty much killed the competitive player killing till near the end.

I did lead TEAM AETHER the best team ever, though. Mostly we just screwed around doing our own thing.

I did manage a six player kill streak in here on my first life, before the dice went retarded and the unconscious guy I hit in the head with a Str6 didn't lose a turn like I did when that happened to me, and killed me with my own spear.
