I created a page documenting a [[Formicid]] [[Venom Mage]] of [[Ru]] in 0.30 [[User:Patrick2011b/FoVM^Ru|here]].
I read some [[:Category:Diary of a Crawler|diaries]] before joining the wiki and found the concept interesting. The existing diaries are all from old versions though, so I've decided to write at least one of my own to document modern gameplay. Here are a few things to know about what my diary writing will be like:
 
*I'm not much of a roleplayer, so I expect my diaries to be more factual in nature.
 
*I play online, so my characters always have the same name. This means the diaries will go in my userspace. The page name will be formatted SSBB^GOD, where SS is the species code, BB is the background code, and GOD is the god my character worships. For example, my first win was with a [[Gargoyle]] [[Monk]] of [[Mahkleb]], so its format would be GrMo^Mahkleb.
 
*Each diary I plan to write will get a subsection here as a preview before I start playing the character. Early deaths don't provide much content, so once I start playing, I'll keep trying the combo until I get to [[Lair]], then I'll post the diary and edit it as I go. Until then, I'll keep it in a text editor so readers can see what the early game is like for the character.

FoVM will be the first combo I write a diary on. I've played a few weapon-based Formicids without much success, but this will be the first time I play a caster with this species. I'm choosing [[Venom Mage]] because Formicids have good [[Poison Magic]] aptitude, and I've never played VM before. I'm hoping to get [[Ignite Poison]] to take advantage of its synergy and to branch into something that's more viable in the late game.

I've been playing Crawl on CBR2 since August 2023 with CDI as backup server. In late November and early December 2023, I played on (now defunct) CKO due to issues with CBR2. Here's my stats page. (technically not the official one, but it has more info than what CAO has)

I created a page documenting a Formicid Venom Mage of Ru in 0.30 here.

Tournaments

DCSS holds a tournament upon the release of each version. The tournament lasts 16 days and counts all games of the new version that are played on official servers. The table below shows some stats for each tournament I've participated in, with the version being a link to a page in my userspace with additional information on my performance in that tournament.

Version Overall Score Overall Rank* Total Players Wins Games Longest Streak Highest Score Lowest TC Win Fastest RT Win Most Pacific Win
0.31 25,247 340 2,731 1 27 n/a 1,799,189 58,128 8:57:09 2,759
0.32 34,857 221 2,842 1 17 n/a 3,106,034 49,047 4:35:43 2,240
0.33 46,476 85 2,871 3 16 n/a 3,368,035 27,743 2:38:01 1,479

*Unlike the tournament page, this table doesn't compress ties.

Notes

  • I took a hiatus during the entire 0.34 development cycle.
  • The tournament had multiple rule changes relevant to this table in 0.34. Prior to this version:
    • Most Pacific Win was a category, which awarded points based on low kill count.
    • Streak Length was a relative category that awarded 10,000 points to the longest streak. The category is now worth double.
  • Prior to 0.33, Streak Length was a proportional category that awarded 400*length points.
