Yesterday I was playing and doing fairly well. I found a broken Mjolak on UT2 and an Arcanite shield +3 (worth lots of monies). I decided to take a drink from a fountain and BAM- Dark Frog appears. I promptly run away and SOMEHOW survived. Then I walk into UT3, my leg and arm fall off, and I polymorph into a teak golem. Three steps later I die from two bites of a carniverous plant. I hate my life ;__;

I haven't been playing long enough to be really gruesome, but my last game was kinda fun. I'm still learning about the gods, and so when I was cornered by a werewolf and two non-were-wolves, I tried praying to every god I knew. Well, I knew Silva and Valpurus, and V didn't like me that much. I got an earthquake from Silva, which did nothing for me except nearly break my legs. So I snapped my expended wand of striking, to go out with a bang. And bang I did! It knocked off every limb I had and broke most of my equipment before crunching my groin into oblivion.

Mine would have to be after I offered Turox to Loricatus because I was focusing on swords, not blunt weapons. One level later, I run into a werewolf wielding, guess what, TUROX!! After one exploding hit, I back off to drink some healing liquid, and then the lycanthropy curse that I had contracted earlier decided to take effect. I miss all of my subsequent attacks and he gets two consecutive critical hits in a row, killing me. I don't offer or otherwise "disappear" artifact weapons anymore.

Spray- there can be multiply copies of an artifact weapon. Its possible to find a Saal Thuul on UT2 and find another on UT3. Just thought I would let ya know ;)

But it's still a good idea to hold on to artifacts and magical weapons, even if you don't use them. If you can carry them, that is. They give your score a pretty hearty beef if you're carrying them when you die...

This is frickin incredible! I sliped on a Banana Peel and my Head got severed :shock:

Im glad I gave you that Amulet of Life Saving, Squash. Things could've gotten messy for ya ;)

It was the perfect game. I had a purple crystal arm a rose crystal (or something) leg, and an ommel hair leg...70 Astr and 45 Lstr. Silva had been generous, to say the least. I was dual wielding mjolak and saal thuul. I had eaten the holy banana of oily orpriv. But for some reason i COULDNT beat the sumo wrestler. "No matter", I thought. I step into GC1, take a few steps, and die from a lone land mine. #%$@

I really wanted this to never happen... Rox died dully (bat takes 3 straight shots at his crotch, the poor guy) so I take a new guy down through the old tunnels. Archvile (yeah, running out of names) was probably the luckiest sonova bitch I've ever played. TWO steps from the stairs, there layed a ommel tooth mace... I was stunned. I NEVER get a good weapon, until late GC >.> Wondering how long this luck would last (and what monsters it would spell) he continued on, and his luck started to worry me. On UT 1: Wand of Mirroring, Wand of Cloning, Scroll of Wishing (! Never seen a legit one!), Boots of Strength +1 Then on UT 2, he took three steps down a coridor. I blinked again and again. Lying there in the freaking MIDDLE OF THE HALLWAY was a Amulent of Life Saving... I blinked again and again... I moved closer, I couldn't believe to be this lucky... then I read something... "You take a step forward and hear a 'thud'. You look down and see an active mine." I promptly deleted the high score file for it and went to bed.

Here's another one.... I finally reached Oree's Lair (without using any cheap tactics, too) and was feeling pretty confident, having turned the dark mage room into a huge pile of severed limbs. So I see the place is full of acid and think, well, it's finally time to use those rings of acid resistance (had been wearing two of electricity resistance). A couple turns later.... A massive burst of electricity runs through your body! Your left leg is destroyed! A massive burst of electricity runs through your body! Your right arm is destroyed! A massive burst of electricity runs through your body! Your head is destroyed!
