Still going strong, not sure if i wanna turn it into an all runes run or not.

I balk whenever I'm dealt a large lump of damage which usually stops me from actually being efficient or mindful of what I'm doing, which invariably leads me to die in :V ways. >_>
Love reading everyone's stories though. I'm really demoralized in even trying to get a 3 rune win here.

[AlStar]

Oh Octopodes, why must I have such a love/hate relationship with you?

I love the idea of wearing 8 rings.

To date, I have yet to ever get an Octopode with 8 rings. Not even good rings - just any not-bad rings.

[Tegga21]

Tried for a faster than(my normal) normal win, managed it in 31k turns.  5 wins

[Aoi]

Oh Octopodes, why must I have such a love/hate relationship with you?

I love the idea of wearing 8 rings.

To date, I have yet to ever get an Octopode with 8 rings. Not even good rings - just any not-bad rings.

I've been trying to do that with an octopode transmuter, operating under the hope that I'll be able to keep all eight rings when in some of the more powerful transforms that normally strip you of most/all your equipment slots (should probably test that in wizmode first, but oh well).

I gave up a string of those runs and went with a nice, easy troll berserker run a few days ago... and got (multiple, even) rings of protection, evasion, slaying, and an artifact with rC+ and rF+ in the first three floors. Go. Figure.

[TheDarkStar]

And I finally won as a MiGl of Uska. As it turns out, Uska is really good for melee characters. The one downside is that you don't actually get any buffs; everything you do hurts/confuses/paralyzes enemies around you instead. In addition, although piety gain is absurdly fast, so is piety loss. So oddly enough Uska worshippers would prefer to fight an army of enemies + some powerful unique instead of just the unique: against an army, you can get piety from fighting them and then instakill the unique.

Pack of yaks on D:4?  Not cool.

I've probably got another few attempts in me, but this loss really took the cake in terms of demoralization:

Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup version 0.19.0-23-gf02e663 (webtiles) character file.

130 PeteStorm the Chopper (level 5, 0/47 HPs)
             Began as a Hill Orc Abyssal Knight on Nov 19, 2016.
             Was a Believer of Lugonu.
             Slain by a yak (13 damage)
             ... on level 3 of the Dungeon.

You think THAT'S bad? I've died to a CENTAUR on D:1 before. It killed me in one shot.

[TheDarkStar]

It's not as bad as an Unseen Horror on D:5. There's no way to run or hide, and then you die.

It reminds me of worse than D:5 some years ago

Anyone have an idea when 20:00 UTC is? I'm in GMT +8 and it's 10am as of writing x_x

Going to try and get a Formicid win for the team this last bit.

I am extremely unlucky these days This reminds me of it all.

 Well, I did it - my first ever 15 rune win is done and dusted:
http://crawl.xtahua.com/crawl/morgue/frankhovis/morgue-frankhovis-20161120-003747.txt
 Gloorx vloq was the most dangerous encounter in Pan, I got slowed by miasma breath, tormented and surrounded by executioners pretty quickly, it cost me 2 blink scrolls and a teleport to get out - I'd been using lighter armour for stealth, 20 AC did not seem enough so I swapped the +9 GDA back in. My follow up attempt I drank some buff potions and brought a few summons along to keep him busy - I got the jump on him and had a much easier time closing to melee range for the kill.

In about 6 hours.

[Tiruin]

UGHH. I'm done, x_x Wasted enough time just trying. Every promising character dying down the drain. This felt a lot harder than before but maybe it's more just me >_>

Grats there to you!

[Jiharo]

Congratulations! This is pretty impressive win rate right here.
