So, I tried to wander a bit in the pandemoniun, as I red it was a little bit easier than Zot, and as I could have found some loot (Needed armor other than the main part, as the rest had sufferered a bit in Slime and my first steps on Zot... So my second rF+ came with a -2 armor).
Except demons didn't see it that way ...
I ended deconstructionning  myself, as I won't let em kill me ! D:

Anyway, got some points out of this run, with the 5 runes I got, the branch endings, the Ashenzari Champ', and the few uniques I killed.
Am currently at 500 (permanent) points.
I think I'll try a few more runs, as there are 4 days left, but that was my best run, even if I was really helped by the 2 rings I bought from the Orc Mines (roughly 1.2k each):
cursed ring of Secocuojo {rF+ rC++ rN+ Str+4 Dex+1}
cursed ring of Peace {Wiz rC+ Acc+6 Dam+6}

Too bad about the Pan. Tournament doesn't end before 27th though, only thing that happens on the 19th is that people can't switch teams anymore.

[Aelig]

So I died in Zot (again) with my second attempt at winning with Yred. I think I knew that game was lost from the beginning when my demonspawn mutated monstruously (losing all slots) but Yred is so good at bringing you easily to Zot. And then he lets you down

[TripJack]

yet again i've found no rMut source and I'm about out of places to explore, seems I probably won't be going for extra runes this time..

[Xgamer4]

If there is a beginner-level team that needs an extra person, I'd like to join. I don't know how much time I'll be able to devote to it though, so if anyone else would like to fill up the spots, feel free to before me. I got to the Lair once, but it was a year or so ago, so I definitely belong on the lowest level team there is xD

I've added you to the team (assuming your name is quinnr).

Add the following as the first line in your options file:

Dammit, Vehumet offered me Freezing Cloud and OOD when I had no spell levels available, then just after I could no longer learn OOD I found 2 scrolls of Amnesia.

[Akhier the Dragon hearted]

   Well that was annoying. I was going for the thing where you get 2 characters in a row to be level 9 and I played DDCj both times. The first it was easy and I did not play it as a caster, first weapon I found I picked up and then proceeded to bash my way to having 10 levels. Next game I try to play an actual Cj rather then just go melee and I end up dying at only level 8, so close yet so far.

[Graven]

Woo, god damn finally! Character is 16th in score on Crawl s-z, which is not too shabby. This is the last I'll be seeing from the post-endgame this tourney, though - so much latency and lag and endless hallways and hellfire ugh.

Of course Dobrazupa is down for me right now, so I won't be able to boast till it's up. Still, though - 4th 15-rune win for me, and first ever in a tournament!

[TripJack]

ffs, flayed ghosts may as well be called rape elementals and oh god the curse skulls can move now

fuck this, if i'm going to die stupidly i'd much rather do it in Zot than on a hopeless rMut hunt in the Crypt

Still, though - 4th 15-rune win for me, and first ever in a tournament!

outstanding! i feel like such a noob

[Delta Foxtrot]

Congratulations on the win.

I've got a pretty promising HOAK going right now, though that's what my previous HOAK said before succuming to killer bee poison mid-lair.

[FluidDynamite]

Grats on the win Graven.

--

Nice to see my VpEn gameplan I used for the last tournament still works pretty consistently. Fine tuned it a bit to stop training Hexes earlier, when Invisibility hits 10% failure rate, and immediately focus on getting Simulacrum online. I managed to do it before reaching the end of Lair with help from a bought wizardry ring. You can do a lot of silly things if you get simulacrum early -- Steamrolled Swamp:5 with a bunch of hydra simulacrum, killed the Lenerean Hydra and... Well, lets just say that the only thing better than a hydra simulacrum is a 27-headed hydra simulacrum.

EDIT: Blew up Spider:5 using basically the same strategy, although I did almost die at the end from a ghost moth draining all my mana and then subsequently teleporting into 3 redbacks. Now that I think about it I don't think I've even cleared the Orcish Mines yet... lol. Well, at least now I have a shiny new Vow of Courage II banner to show for it.

[monk12]

You see here the felid corpse of monk12.
 You offer a prayer to Nemelex Xobeh.
 The felid corpse of monk12 disappears without a glow.
 Nemelex Xobeh is pleased with you.

Well he can't be all THAT pleased with me, I didn't even glow!

You fly upwards.
You sense a powerful magical force warping space.
There is a stone staircase leading down here.

You start resting.
Something unseen opens the door.
You start resting.
A lemure comes into view.
The lemure gives a chilling moan.
Use which ability? (? or * to list)
You clear your throat and prepare to recite Anathema 25:56.
"When the law of the land faltered, Zin rose..."
"...from the silver throne, and the servants of Hell were..."
"...purified. And it was thus that the law was made good."
The lemure is limned with silver light.
The lemure gives a chilling moan.
You finish reciting Anathema 25:56.
You feel short of breath.
You have escaped!

Zin feels nerfed. No idea if this is really true, but I was able to kill a ton more stuff with my previous character with recite, and now the best I could manage was turning a pretty pathetic random Pan Lord into a pillar of salt - even the god damn lemure didn't die when I tried to recite at it while leaving the dungeon!

Next - KoSu, but first - Heroes of Might and Magic : in the Wake of Gods!

seems i'm not good enough for the abyssal rune, got in sight of the hellephant island vault and promptly got swarmed while a lurking horror and tormentor raped my health

i was down to 7 HP before I teleported away...
