More out of fun and curiosity than anything else, I have been mulling over some ideas of an ADOM tournament to crown the "best" player and/or character. I know that these sort of tournaments/championships have been proposed before, and I'm just curious what standards you guys think would apply to identify a worthy champion. Some thoughts I came up with: 1. Furthest progress in a fixed time period. 2. Most victories with different race-profession combinations. 3. Highest score. 4. Closest attempt at a successful Eternium Man victory. Thoughts? Suggestions? |

It is difficult to make one, thanks to the single-play-only aspect. But I think we could do number 1. 3. 4. if we could agree on a specific class. My coins: 5. Go as far as possible with starting equipments. You can do anything but use/eat anything affect your "natural" status i.e. no PoGA or PoS. Book reading are allowed but you are not allowed to read a spell have memo score larger than 500. No wishing. Burnden and strained status are forbbiden. Scumming are forbidden. The victor is the one who go furthest. My RL dumpyard: http://www.geocities.com/ceruleannebula/index.html |

ADOM tourneys are hard, though i would love one :) Some additional variations for fun rather than the actual crowning of a champion: 1) Pure randomed characters for furthest progress (that'll leave some real unlucky combinations, darkelf merchant comes to mind) 2) Choose a race/class and see who can go the furthest with it. 3) Other metallic challenges are fun to do: see who can do them the quickest. 4) Finishing the game with the LOWEST score =P I hate eternium man. Ive tried it and suffice it to say i failed far more miserably than others have. I hate to say this as well, but ive played too many MMORPGs to let it pass: Of course we'd have to go on "all in good faith", but the truth is some people do find the need to cheat even in a friendly game with no reward whatsoever. |

It is inside where it counts my friend. Back to topic: I think human is a good candidate for race is they are not special. And for class, I think monk is a good one since he can both cast magic and fight and he is not affect much by weapon/shield RNG dropping. male are not affect my the frog quest -> more stable. To sum up, a male human monk is a candidate for the chosen char of the torment. My RL dumpyard: http://www.geocities.com/ceruleannebula/index.html |
