Okay, maybe it's because I've had one heck of an awful day, but... Huh???

Call it what you will... Remember, I'm not the one who first insinuated that you couldn't go it alone. Steingrim was the one who suggested that, having a bankroll of more than 800k, he could easily give/lend the money to you to fill in the gaps in your equipment. I think you're perfectly...

ZoneAlarm was working well for me, aside from resulting in 5-minute boot times (and if anyone knows how to speed that up, I'd appreciate it; you'd think 640MB of RAM and 1.7GHz processor would be enough). Now, however, since I allowed them to update ZoneAlarm last night, I've had troubles with...

Argh! Are you telling me that the boots of Foresight I sent you got deleted? :( Well, at least the Greatsword of Giant's Strength is all right, yes?

You're level 70+, and still need to rely on the help of others? Don't care to do it the hard way, huh? Sure, take charity from Steingrim. Admit that you can't hack it on your own. After all, just because everyone else in the top five slots has managed to go it alone for the last twenty to...

Tsk... 'Tis a sad day, when I have a better opinion of Nny than you do (and, looking at the next post--damn four crashes in 45 minutes, anyone know of a good replacement for ZoneAlarm?--apparently better than Nny has of himself). I mean, he's level 70+. I'd think he'd be able to cross the...

[American pop movie reference] Mr. AGGEMAM, are you trying to seduce me? [/American pop movie reference] Nope. You've got about 400 more strength than I, and probably a lot more defense. Plus all the hit points and stuff. But there's something about RPG: There's very little variation of...

*snort* Back before there were ditch diggers, I was 3 minutes from collecting my salary, which I desperately needed. Then Morrus took down the jobs, and when it came up, my salary had disappeared...

Yippee!!! I have 4 diamonds! I'm confident enough to take on the Balrog full time, now. :) 1602 DEF and 1559 STR, plus 827 hit points, that's not too darn bad. I just have to replace one Foresight and three Giant's Strength, so that means (from enchantments) I have another +300 to DEF and...

Cincinnatus and the Citizen-Servant Ideal: The Roman Legend's Life, Times, and Legacy by Michael J. Hillyard I've been trying to find books on Cincinnatus for years, now I finally found one. Unfortunately, it's on its way, so I can't read it yet. :( Now, if I could just find a book on...

By the way: Tell Nny to hurry up, or he's about to lose his place as the second strongest character. I'm up to 260k, which means I'll soon have three Diamonds more... I think I'm catching up on victories, as well. :)

Huh... Just looked through your clan... Sir Osis of Liver doesn't have a mount. He has a short sword of defending. He has a long sword of devil's guile. Those could all be upgraded, right? (Plus, he was one of the newbies I helped out... Six hundred gold, at a time I was making maybe...

Wasn't suggesting lending or gifting. I was offering you the chance to buy almost 30,000 of equipment at almost half off. Think of it as getting more bang for your buck with regard to gifting clan members, since for the price of 15,000, you'll get: Unicorn of Giant's Strength (unicorn: +100...

So you can spare 15000, right? That's less than half the interest you get every day. :)

Heh... I'm at 70th level now. And I have enough money to buy 2 diamonds. Anyone interested in buying some old equipment? I have a short sword of Foresight, and a greatsword and a unicorn of Giant's Strength... That's about 5900 of equipment and 24,000 of enchantment. Combined, they give...

(let's hope this copy/paste works...) Yes, the game of D&D evolved from a wargame. I think it was called Chainmail or something like that. I dunno... Someone will be along to provide fuller answers soon, I bet. :)

Maybe it has something to do with magic? I hit the Balrog with magic, and inflicted over 400 damage. And its mana went down 3 points. So maybe the over-damage in the spell calculation doesn't get taken into account against mana. Another reason to stick to physical attacks. :) Oh, and...

As long as we're discussing bugs, is there something wrong with the damage calculation for the Balrog? Twice now, I've fought it, and been instantly killed. It went through about 620 hit points in one blow. Twice in a row. Yeah, I know, it can happen... But here's the kicker: I still have...

I think I've figured out a nice little trick. I looked at the risk/return per unit, and it looks to me that fighting the dragon is the best bet for me. Sure, I can defeat the death knight easily enough, but the dragon is more valuable, relatively speaking. Consider: Each time you attack...

No luck, eh? Yeah, I had the same problem. Just give it to a newbie, and move on. Think about poor me. I'm at 54000gp, and soon I'll have my first Diamond enchantment. Now, either I give away something that I've spent probably 9000 on (about 20 fights with a Dragon, or 15 fights with the...
