Actually 20mn before the end we still had the 4th place. Nice ninja move from the Iltirelate Crawlers there, as a consolation prize, we still have the 2nd best win rate  :)

It was my first tournament and it was really fun. I never thought I'd be able to streak but motivation makes everything possible.  :P
 Playing for a team makes the game even more stressful and rewarding.

Anyway, great job everyone! I hope next tourney webtiles will come earlier because I think the vast majority of our games were played the 2nd week (I didn't have much time the first week anyway but still...).

Spoiler: Clans (click to show/hide)

Bay12 Champs did much better than last year. We went from 9th to 5th place. I regret not going for more runes with my mummy, since we would've stayed in 4th place.

   Oh irony, I placed lower then last year yet did better. I guess we had more players who where better this year. Good job everyone, Bay12 made a good showing this year and hopefully next year we can get more of our teams in the high end.

Good job teams!


I'm sorry I didn't do better- dying last night to a SHEEP took the wind out of my sails.  One of these days I'll beat Crawl!

Nice work everyone, this was fun :).

I haz a bit of a sad that none of my characters got close to a rune in the tourney, but on the other hand, and it pretty well by my own crap standards with some classes I never played before, so its all good.

Unfortunately it appears that the tournament is over. I didn't really get to play as much as I would have liked, since in the last week back-to-school preparations and Hurricane Irene ate my time alive. Still, I did get my first spellcaster rune, which I suppose was something. Said spellcaster had a stupid splat to Boris, but whatever, now I understand how bad he is (in my first encounter I bulldozed him with an anti-magic demon whip).

Good job everyone. I was hoping for a win, but it didn't happen. Very impressive results by the Champions, too. The next tourny is coming up spring 2012?

I think that was the plan, shorter tournaments but more of them, like the other tourney they setup a month or two ago before 0.9 was released.

Good job everybody, specially the champions. That fifth place is impressive.

I still haven't managed to get my first rune, but I came close this time. Hopefully by the next tournament I'll have managed to delve deeper into the dungeon.

i did my best ever during the tournament 4runes and xl27... i even saw the orb of zot

unfortunately I think I'd have had more fun finding 1or2 runes over and over instead of playing one long painstakingly slow game for basically a whole week... definitely tho the tournament inspired me to take the game seriously and ask for more help and experiment less... play slower... not just endlessly hold in an arrow key but instead tap it in short quick bursts of tap tap, tap tap, tap tap kinda... it can be boring spending 1minute to kill a troll instead of 10seconds but... this way you dont' end up getting ambush around the corner by a centaur pack without a chance to respond


i'm pretty pleased I got to see zot for the first time, although wildly disappointed with how weak my character was against zot and even tomb opponents despite steamrolling most of the rest of the dungeon branches

tomb? you tried to do tomb? tomb is the worst. worse than pan, worse than hells, worse than zot:5. wait 'til you see tomb:2 and tomb:3. it can kill you with 14 runes. hell, it will.
going there with a DD takes guts, i have to say.

I just noticed, in an odd state of coincidence, both me and baruk were both on the same team in each tournament and were the only ones on those teams to win a game -- one each, each time. Baruk, incredibly, got the exact same point total. If that was intentional, it's amazing :P

Didn't do as good this time m'self, though. Got precisely 101 points less, and ranked a fair bit lower. Team also came in at a lower over rank (20 vs 17) but was overall fairly close in performance -- point wise, anyway. That the point total was almost the same despite playing nearly 1/10th the amount of games is pretty impressive :P It's not really a fair comparison (different people!), but it is kinda strange that the blacksmiths were only ~100 points behind the miners, despite the lowest point total in the miners being higher than any one of the three lowest scores on th'smiths. Seems to have mostly come from the team-granted points for having particular race/combo wins. Gathered 10 points more for the team overall, counting this, with baruk beating his previous contribution by 75.

What does it all mean? Absolutely nothing! say it again, now~ S'interesting to compare numbers, that's all :P
