I still remember when it happened. She sliced off her hubbie's wanker, got in her car, drove for a while, and just threw it out the window. Then she called the paramedics and they had to drive around for a while looking for the severed willie. Later on, after the guy got his member re-attached, he staged an event at a nightclub near Houston. He was offering $1000 to the first girl who could give him a hard-on. Lots of chicks showed up, but old willie was a no-show. I wonder what ever happened to that guy. Maybe his thingie turned leprose and fell off. Who knows.

the internet is a strange place, my boy :wink:

For the fully story, google "bobbit" and "wiki." Some of the contents of the Wiki dont square with events as I remember them when this was all actually taking place. So dont believe everything you read.

Sorry about reviewing this old topic, but I'm trying to give this forum some first aid. Ah, my second best carachter this far died a few days ago. After wrecking havoc among the zombies and sceletons in the necromancer level with my pets (two black bears and a steel colem), I met Guugzamesh the Goblin king. Pets didn't last long, as you can guess. Well, to put it straight, though I was powerful, he was just too much for me. I teleported away twice to heal and tried to get some shots from the distance, but his speed was beyound all limits. I drank the potion, and when he showed up, I had time to zap once before he closed in to melee. Finally when I lost my hands and couldn't zap away any more, he finished me off in a few blows. I doubt that even praying would've saved me. That was a death I don't regret, for once I feel I really meet someone beyond my limits and did my best to survive. 17363 Reiska, killed by Guugzamesh the goblin king in gloomy cave level 6

He's that strong ? I didnt thought he'd take care of those pets and survive some zaps.

Well, the pets were weakened by... 20 zombies and a few kamikaze dwarves getting sparky in proximity. Or something. I didn't get to hit him that many times myself, either. As you know.

Seems to me most times I encounter Guss he's not that difficult. Same with Rondol. Any of the other ones, though, and I start getting nervous.

I wonder if I've ever met him before... Rondol's an every-day enemy. One of the reasons for me not "meeting" him might of cource be that I mostly don't know who I'm meeting. When I start wondering why he didn't die with a few blows, and find out who he is, I just think "oh goodie, a named baddie!" And then I start to think of more cunning ways to kill him.

Death by stupidity: Had a good character, down to GC8 and joined Ivan, Vlad, who mysteriously disappeared. Turns out they were killed by ZQ-29 who I bumped into and lost a limb to. I zapped away drank a potion and came back for more did this a few times and was rewarded with a nice light spidersilk armour +3 and scroll of cloning. But, before taking on Elpuri I decided to go back up to attnam to talk Hathbaar the Librarian for and INT/WIS boost since I just made it to 20 INT after cloning some scrolls and amping up my armour and Vermis & Gorovitz family sickle. I had stopped praying to Seges because I was trying to change my alignment enough to pray to Mellis. Well I forgot to carry food (left it in a chest in GC8) and was starving after talking to haathbar for a couple hundred turns for +2 int and +1 wis. I figured I could make it to the big lump of bearflesh in the Attnam store rather than pray to seges and pissoff mellis but I was wrong. I starved to death 2 spaces away. Stoooopid me.

... This might make things worse for you Slob, but... were you walking or running?

Hmm, running is an often ignored feature, isn't it. I don't think he would have been able to make it to the lump of bear meat, even WITH running, though.

running is often ignored? I run alot, when fighting a tough enemy, whenever I'm not exhausted. It boosts AGI

Ah, okay, just checking. I've a died a couple of times because I was walking and not running, though it usually had more to do with enemies chasing me or not getting out of the mushroom horde i'd been slumming in as a method training (did you know that holding down the wait command, ' . ' , in front of a giant mushroom or carnivorous plant until you've reached critical trains all of your stats except charisma, intelligence and wisdom, and that chatting trains the previous listed stats as well as charisma?) Unfortunately, I've died more than a time or because I missed the point where I reached critical or I got knocked unconscious and pummeled to death. Embarrassing.

I don't think he would have been able to make it to the lump of bear meat, even WITH running, though. Indeed, it is likely that running hungers more quickly than walking, just like it drains fatigue faster. I am basing this assumption on common sense, having never tested it. To Duraiken: good armor for the groin and torso should prevent this; don't attempt such training with a bare chest, for instance.
