I'mma just chill over here and grow and stuff. How's my eyes working out? Do I need dragon glasses?

That might just make you the weak dragon, as there's no selection pressure..

((Something seems wrong with "no selection pressure". Hm.... oh right, homicidal mage deathmatch!))

Shouldn't he be pushed over the ledge by now?

The waitlist, for those of you asking, is here:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/9849nm7wwa9zhl3/Lexicon%20Waitlist.txt?dl=0

I've gone back through the tread and got everyone I could see and made sure they were ordered correctly. I haven't been keeping track of posted stats or lists yet, because I figure you might want to change them by the time you get in.





Now, we're waiting on Urist A.

[piecewise]

If urist doesn't post by tomorrow, I'm just gonna assume a generic defensive stance and do the turn.


After the next death or two, I want to alter the rules a bit, see if we can change it up.

Hmmm. I bet that'll mess up my current character plan.

Do you mean change the rules as in tweaking, or change the rules as in throwing everything out the window?

I was thinking of increasing the pool universally, making it so can just use whatever words you want and using memory points to instead "Save" spells for use later.  We'll see. At this point, I'm just messing around trying to find what fits best for the idea I had in mind.

Point back into Strength, give him a beat down! To death!

You don't even let the power completely fade out of you before you're dumping more in, your muscles refilling with magical energy. This time, your assault goes much better: The uppercut doesn't completely remove his head, but it does turn him into a pez dispenser. He vanishes in a burst of blood and light.

You get 2 points.

"TIME TO ADDRESS THE ELEPHANT IN THE ROOM.
NOT THE PINK ONES THE FACT THAT YOU AREN'T DEAD YET."
AHHHH KILL KILL KILL.

"They're pink indeed!"

Squee suddenly lapses into a bout of terrific madness and runs screaming...right off the edge. He falls 2 stories...But continues to be mad...and then falls the rest of the way and splatters to the ground.

Your eyes grow to a more usable form and you grow a layer of smooth scales on your belly.

Maybe you should, you know, give yourself something to evolve towards. A selection pressure as it were. Right now you're evolving to be a paperweight.





Hap and Sy are up. Gimme your sheets


Shall we try a new mode now or stay with this for the moment?

[Toaster]

Well, that worked.  Do I get credit for the kill?

As squee fell, a thought shot through his mind.
This wasn't how it was supposed to go.
He had trained for years, staring into the abyss searching for the words that may give him power at the cost of his already fragile mind, watching the unending chaos beyond the colour octarine, it was calming, if only because his mind had never known what to do with what the eyes reported.
Another floor passed.
And he realised all he had given up for this, the chance to become a god, he wondered for the well-being of buttons, though he knew it would be well taken care of by the institute, it was the one thing he'd been allowed to keep, they said it was for his sanity.
He wondered what that word meant, now.
Another floor passed.
The home stretch now, if, he had been given time to speak to the man who had killed him, he would have been quite grateful for how he did so, he did not feel fear, he did not feel regret.
He only remembered a forever unpaid debt.
He still had the ri---------
And the floors stopped passing.

Selection Pressure, you say?

[piecewise]

What new modes would there be?

Oh, like I said, Higher pool, no word lists, use memory to memorize spells for later use without requiring pool (Ie, summon a knife, then "memorize" it using one point of memory and summon it back at any time).

I spent quite some time handpicking my list of 40 words. Sigh. :|
