| − | Grats CommanderC for our team's first win! I splatted my first guy with 2 runes in the vaults unfortunately =( --[[User:Flun|Flun]] 06:42, 12 May 2013 (CEST)
| |
| − | :Mmh, I haven't even made it that far. I got to the Lair, established my stash, then got eaten by a hydra. Currently on attempt 5 or so, but it looks promising so far. Props to CommanderC, though. [[User:Spudwalt|--spudwalt]] 08:25, 12 May 2013 (CEST)

| − | ::Scratch that last bit. Pikel just killed me. Take 6... [[User:Spudwalt|--spudwalt]] 08:28, 12 May 2013 (CEST)
| |
| − | :Grats man! My only promising character died a death that just shouldn't have happened. Oh, and it's your first game too! Dude, you must be really pro.. (or really lucky) --[[User:Lokkij|Lokkij]] 10:23, 12 May 2013 (CEST)
| |
| − | :::Thanks guys! --[[User:CommanderC|CommanderC]] 14:59, 12 May 2013 (CEST)
| |
| − | ::::Pff... another win! And it's only your second game too! If you continue like this, you'll end up being like '''theglow''', the guy from last tournament who won 18 games and didn't even die once. --[[User:Lokkij|Lokkij]] 22:30, 13 May 2013 (CEST)
| |
| − | Grats Flun on our second win! It's already clear who are the *pros* and who aren't :P --[[User:Lokkij|Lokkij]] 07:55, 13 May 2013 (CEST)
| |
| − | :Yep. Yep yep. [[User:Spudwalt|--spudwalt]] 08:52, 13 May 2013 (CEST)
| |
| − | :: Thanks! Also keep at it and I'm sure you can get a win in the tourney. Try an easy combos like MiBe or HOBe - don't worry about overlapping class/background/gods unless you are planning to win multiple times. The first win for each player is the most important because there are a bunch of bonus points for a player's first win.

| − | ==0.12 tournament== | |
| − | I'd be interested in participating (though I don't know I'd be that helpful -- I've only ever ascended once). Also, idea for a team name: The Ashenzarites (y'know, 'cause Ashenzari's the knowledge god and we gather knowledge into the wiki). [[User:Spudwalt|--spudwalt]] 01:01, 23 March 2013 (CET)
| |
| − | :If you're interested, grab a slot! If you've won once, you can win again. My first tournament taught me a ton about playing combos I wasn't familiar or comfortable with. As for the name, add it to the list; we'll worry about which we go by when the time comes. --[[User:MoogleDan|MoogleDan]] 04:38, 23 March 2013 (CET)
| |
| − | ::Out of curiosity, about how many times does the average participant successfully ascend over the course of a tournament? It might be slightly masochistic, but I still kinda want to have a benchline to see exactly how much I suck compared to everybody else. [[User:Spudwalt|--spudwalt]] 08:16, 23 March 2013 (CET)
| |
| − | ::: Nice to have you on the team =) [http://seleniac.org/crawl/tourney/12b/all-players.html Here's] a list of all the players in the last tournament. [http://crawl.develz.org/wordpress/0-11-tournament-results This page] also has some stats that might be what you are looking for. --[[User:Flun|Flun]] 15:48, 23 March 2013 (CET)

| − | I'm having some trouble editing that rc file that we need for the tournament -- I click on the link they have that says "edit rc", but nothing happens. FYI, I usually play on CAO (when I play online at all -- it's a bit laggy for my tastes). [[User:Spudwalt|--spudwalt]] 19:40, 2 May 2013 (CEST)

| − | | |
| − | Also, I think I might have a different account; my password wasn't working, so I had to re-register. [[User:Spudwalt|--spudwalt]] 19:56, 2 May 2013 (CEST)
| |
| − | :Spudwalt, trying playing a 0.12 game on CAO first and then trying to edit the file. Maybe it was not created yet. Do you have a new account name now or are you still using spudwalt?
| |
| − | ::Yep, I'm still "spudwalt". I'll try again when I get back to my computer. [[User:Spudwalt|--spudwalt]] 21:06, 2 May 2013 (CEST)
| |
| − | Me too, I just realised I put the wrong account in that table. I'll put the link to the new account in the table, although it isn't working yet - the server probably hasn't processed it yet. --[[User:Lokkij|Lokkij]] 20:09, 2 May 2013 (CEST)
| |
| − | :Lokkij, What is your online profile name? --[[User:Flun|Flun]] 21:00, 2 May 2013 (CEST)
| |
| − | ::My previous name was lordlokkij, and my new one Lokkij - the former registered on CDO and the latter on CSZO. Oh! Is there some kind of test-tournament going on? On the tournament page I'm seeing all this stuff about someone winning the Nemelex' Choice award, and clans gaining points. --[[User:Lokkij|Lokkij]] 21:21, 2 May 2013 (CEST)
| |
| − | ::: Yes there is a test-tourney going on right now, they reset at the beginning of the actualy tourney. Re: your username: for the tournament make sure to use the same character name on all servers. This will ensure that all your games are grouped into the same profile. So for example if you are using Lokkij on CSZO and decide to go back to CDO, make a "Lokkij" account on CDO and play on that. --[[User:Flun|Flun]] 21:28, 2 May 2013 (CEST)

| − | :Still having trouble. I've played through two 0.12 characters now, and it still doesn't react when I click on the "edit rc" link. [[User:Spudwalt|--spudwalt]] 03:39, 3 May 2013 (CEST)
| |
| − | :: Okay, I tried to edit my 0.12 rc on CAO and it doesn't work either. Hopefully they will get it fixed for the tournament. However, you can always add your team affiliation on the CSZO server and it will work fine. --[[User:Flun|Flun]] 04:02, 3 May 2013 (CEST)
| |
| − | ::: Spudwalt, it should work now. I talked to the guy who maintains the server and he missed something in the login script. Log out and back in and you should be good to go. It's working for me now. --[[User:Flun|Flun]] 04:15, 3 May 2013 (CEST)
| |
| − | ::::Haaah, there we go. Okay, when do we edit the rc file to include the #TEAMCAPTAIN stuff? [[User:Spudwalt|--spudwalt]] 20:57, 3 May 2013 (CEST)
| |
| − | ::::: We could do it now if you want, but we have till May 18 to get it working right. --[[User:Flun|Flun]] 22:04, 3 May 2013 (CEST)
| |
| − | :::::: Okay, I'm pretty sure I've got it edited correctly. See you guys on May 11th! [[User:Spudwalt|--spudwalt]] 07:31, 5 May 2013 (CEST)

| − | == CDO Webtiles ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | My prefered server is actually CDO webtiles, but I'm guessing that's not gonna be up in time for the tournament. Does anyone know this for sure? --[[User:Lokkij|Lokkij]] 19:43, 2 May 2013 (CEST)
| |
| − | : Yeah, it is not going to be up in time. Are you in Europe? --[[User:Flun|Flun]] 20:59, 2 May 2013 (CEST)
| |
| − | ::Yup, I'm in Europe (Netherlands to be specific). I guess I'll either have to learn playing in console or try to handle the delay that comes with playing in 'merica. Do you think console would be doable? --[[User:Lokkij|Lokkij]] 21:05, 2 May 2013 (CEST)
| |
| − | :::I play console normally and I have tried playing webtiles. Switching from one to the other takes some getting used to, mainly just to learn all the new representations. However, it is probably less painful than playing with >100ms ping. =P --[[User:Flun|Flun]] 21:23, 2 May 2013 (CEST)
| |
| − | :::Ugh.. I'll need some more practice in console DCSS. I accidentally sacrificed a [[Storm Dragon Armour]] to Nemelex. On D:3! I was a minotaur fighter, so it would've been excellent for at least the earlygame. Oh well.. --[[User:Lokkij|Lokkij]] 16:15, 5 May 2013 (CEST)

| |
| − | :::Well, I still need to get used to console: I accidentally entered (and in some cases cleared) Snake:1, Orc:1, Elf:1 and ''almost'' Slime:1 without even noticing. While it isn't a catastrophe, accidentally entering Hell or some other more dangerous branch without noticing could be, well, rather dangerous --[[User:Lokkij|Lokkij]] 20:10, 11 May 2013 (CEST)

| − | == PuTTY + Account questions ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | Okay, so I downloaded PuTTY to play console and set it up and all, but I have to set it up again every time I open PuTTY (the options revert to default). Is there any way to keep my options so I don't have to set it up every time? I also registered on CDO with that, under the name Lokkij (same as on CSZO). If I understand it correctly, my games and scores should show up on the profile page of the already created CSZO account, right? And are the rc files also shared between accounts with the same name? --[[User:Lokkij|Lokkij]] 11:34, 5 May 2013 (CEST)
| |
| − | : Putty - In the setup window, you set all your options, and then save the session under a name in the "Load, save or delete a stored session" box under the "Session" tab (the first tab that you see). When you load putty again, you just have to click on that session for it to load everything. You can also change the size of the font under the Window --> Appearance tab. Just make sure to save the configuration again if you change that.
| |
| − | : Your tournament profile is [http://dobrazupa.org/tournament/0.12/players/lokkij.html here]. Looks like you've set up your .rc file correctly and are in the team. You can try playing on different servers, and all the games with your name should appear there. The .rc file is different for each server and each version, but you only need the #TEAMCAPTAIN note on one of the 0.12 .rc files. --[[User:Flun|Flun]] 14:18, 5 May 2013 (CEST)

| − | == Results & enjoyment ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | Compared to last year's results, our ranking is disappointing. But the wiki did have some better players that years (or at least less "newbies" like me). However, I must say I enjoyed the tournament a lot. It forced me to play console, which actually was a good thing! It definitely affected my performance negatively, and I don't think I'm going to play DCSS in console ever again, but this experience will greatly help me in other non-graphical roguelikes. I also liked how my (failed) games actually meant something, because they still contributed to my score. How did you guys enjoy it? --[[User:Lokkij|Lokkij]] 17:35, 27 May 2013 (CEST)

| − | | |
| − | We didn't do as well this tournament, but I enjoyed it nonetheless. It was nice to field a full team from wiki editors (team building right?). CommanderC did really well, and I reached my goal of getting a 3 runer and a 15 runer. I had a conference in the last week so I couldn't play as much. --[[User:Flun|Flun]] 19:28, 27 May 2013 (CEST)

| − | | |
| − | As a player who rarely uses autoexplore, I still prefer to play local games, but this year my ping was better (~60 ms), and I enjoyed the tournament more. My biggest mistake was playing that stupid FeFi (I really hate Felids, what was I thinking). The other combos were good and enjoyable. It's very surprising that our clan didn't get any victory with Trog. Probably, we are the only clan ranked in the top 20 that didn't. --[[User:CommanderC|CommanderC]] 21:57, 27 May 2013 (CEST)
