Grats CommanderC for our team's first win! I splatted my first guy with 2 runes in the vaults unfortunately =( --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. --spudwalt 08:25, 12 May 2013 (CEST)

Scratch that last bit. Pikel just killed me. Take 6... --spudwalt 08:28, 12 May 2013 (CEST)

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). --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. --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. --spudwalt 08:16, 23 March 2013 (CET)

Nice to have you on the team =) Here's a list of all the players in the last tournament. This page also has some stats that might be what you are looking for. --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). --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. --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. --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. --Lokkij 20:09, 2 May 2013 (CEST)

Lokkij, What is your online profile name? --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. --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. --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. --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. --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. --Flun 04:15, 3 May 2013 (CEST)

Haaah, there we go. Okay, when do we edit the rc file to include the #TEAMCAPTAIN stuff? --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. --Flun 22:04, 3 May 2013 (CEST)

Okay, I'm pretty sure I've got it edited correctly. See you guys on May 11th! --spudwalt 07:31, 5 May 2013 (CEST)

0.11 tournament

Last tournament's team wiki talk

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? --Lokkij 19:43, 2 May 2013 (CEST)

Yeah, it is not going to be up in time. Are you in Europe? --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? --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 --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.. --Lokkij 16:15, 5 May 2013 (CEST)

Don't worry, a plate armour will be just as good, or even better. --CommanderC 21:53, 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 --Lokkij 20:10, 11 May 2013 (CEST)

Nemelex's Choice

Do we know what the Nemelex's Choice combos are this time around? I highly doubt I'll attempt any, but I'm curious all the same. --MoogleDan 04:36, 3 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? --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 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. --Flun 14:18, 5 May 2013 (CEST)

Thanks! That'll save me a lot of time :P --Lokkij 15:04, 5 May 2013 (CEST)
