Is there a reason they don't want us to have slightly more adventures? A good reason? Considering you have to be either softcore (in which case who cares) or level 11 (in which case, again, who cares) to obtain and drink the wine?

I can't believe the zombie pineal glands are up to 777k, makes me feel bad that I sold one of the two extra I had back when they were 90k. I don't really want to sell the other though, it's one of those "hey I was there for this (so were like 3-400,000 other people of course)" souveniers.

Oh man I've been making bank. Remember how the pirate thing hit, and then like days later, Crimbo stuff started happening so everyone went and did that? Well, Cursed Pieces of Thirteen just hit like, 200k, gilded keys are about the same, and I made a good 1.5 mill playing the market on the chests. God drat it's been a good Crimbo.

Seriously. It sucks that I didn't realize that that market is incredibly lucrative until yesterday, hopefully it will take a day or two for prices to go down still.

For being so awsome with the outfits, is there anything that you are collecting Chococat? From all my HC runs, I possibly have a minor stockpile of a lot of things that I wouldn't mind sending to you.

I asked this very question myself, and apparently:

I can buy someone being able to do the 3-400 adventures a day to put them on the bottom half of the chart, and I'll ignore the absurd amount of mana that it would cost to spirit-of-crimbo at that point. But how the gently caress did someone do 1739 adventures in two days? That doesn't seem like it should be possible at all.

Yeah, within the confines of the game I can't figure out how someone would be doing that many adventures. Do sober pills still work? I don't know why someone would be wasting them on something stupid like this, but I guess if they had Boozerbear levels of meat's worth of sober pills, they could keep drinking ridiculous numbers of corpsetinis et cetera?

Happy Groundhog Day! Ronin now ends when you free King Ralph, and if you're in Hardcore, you can access any unavailable permanent skills you have from your account menu.

So there's basically no reason not to be doing hardcore ascensions anymore? Not that I care personally, but that seems kind of lovely for people who do softcore ascensions. Or is this a late April Fool's prank or something?

Anyway, Bad Moon is pretty fun, I wish I'd done it earlier. Finding new foods without my Pastamancer/Sauceror skills is alternately fun and completely obnoxious.

Edit: forgot you can take some things out of Hagnk's while in Ronin; this seems less bad to me now, but still annoying.

So now if you have skills permed for SC, and finish a HC run, you can use those SC skills or something, where you couldn't before. Don't quote me on it though; I have never done a SC ascension in my history of KoLing.

Yeah, that half of the announcement I didn't have a problem with (and if the way you're interpreting it is true, that's pretty cool), I was just complaining about the Ronin thing. Now that I've been doing some reading though, it seems a lot more reasonable. I didn't realize Ronin was up to 1000 turns before this, goddamn.

What? What this update means is that after you break the prism, you can use your SC permed skills in HC. Not during your run. So if you finished a hardcore run and wanted to do some Hobopolis or whatever, but most of your skills were only permed SC, you now recover them, so you wouldn't have to reascend softcore or casual just to use them outside of your run. The skills aren't available until the point where you can take everything out of Hagnk's anyway.

Uh, yes, I got that and said so in that post. Why don't you go play Money-Making Game with the clan's meat about it or something

Especially with the recent Mr. A inflation. They used to be 4.4-4.7 million, now they're up around 6 or 7. I've got drat good farming gear, but if I farmed for a Mr. A every month, I'd be doing nothing else with my turns, and what kind of playing a game is that?

Is there a time lag for messages showing up in my outbox? I sent a ton of nuggets to Masamune to wad up a little while ago, the nuggets are gone from my inventory, but the message isn't in my outbox and I'll be annoyed if the game just ate 300 wads.

This is total bullshit, man! They're telling me my character is malnourished, but I fed her like, five bowls of chow mein today! At once! She really wolfed it down, since I forgot to check up on her for a couple of days, but she's fine now! And I give her all the booze she needs, so she can have the best adventures; she needs it, otherwise she can't get to the five-hundredth sub-basement, you know?

Unless of course she's in one of those "I don't eat food or drink alcohol" phases, but we all know how that is. Kids are nutty, right?

I thought I'd adventure in the sea for a bit until I want to resume my basement dive; man, gently caress the sea so much. gently caress dolphins, too, although I guess those are actually kind of helpful, since they're "stealing" items you wouldn't have gotten anyway, so now you can get them with a whistle?

Anyway, as for the current mysterious happenings, I've gotten MOR, PPE, ER., EAL, LEN, VIL, ...GA, ....B, LE..., and HER; the variation in the number of periods is interesting.

I've been doing that the slow way, with a rock lobster once I get done with getting the day's absinthe/agua/transponder drops. It is, unsurprisingly, extremely slow. I'm glad I had the lobster when I decided to see what the reanimated bat skeleton fax was about, though.
