0.15 Crawl Tournament
There will likely be a new Crawl tournament coming soon, though I don't believe official dates have been set. How much interest is there in a CrawlWiki team running again? I personally could go either way on it. Post your feedback here!
- I've started a new job so I don't have much free, but I might be able to put in a win in or two. =) --Flun (talk) 01:16, 8 August 2014 (CEST)

Advice
As always, the easy combos are the first to get massively devalued, and the hard combos gain value over time as players churn out MiFi and GrBe wins. As such, the first few days of the tourney should probably be spent cashing in quick wins with the easy melee brutes. Unless, of course, you're brave enough to attempt a Nemelex's Choice. Last year, HilariousDeathArtist earned us some crazy points beating a bunch of those. Your call: go for the low-risk, moderate-reward wins, or the high-risk, high-reward? The latter option even comes with a nice banner!
You'll eventually want to get all 15 runes, at least once, during the course of the tourney. The first time you pick up any rune, it's worth 30 points. Getting the simple Lair runes is enough to win, but after your second win, the score value of doing so is pretty meager. If you can gather the more difficult runes once or twice, the payoff is well worth it. You'll probably not want to do this if your current species / background choices are worth absurd amounts, but when playing easy characters, consider taking the risk.
Killing player ghosts is worth a couple points, which is always nice. Killing players with your player ghosts, however, is far better. Unfortunately, I'm not really certain of any particularly good ways of optimizing a character for post-death player trolling. Any suggestions?
- Ranged weapon users are nearly harmless in death. If you are certain you're about to die, swap out that bow for the executioner's axe in your pack so that you'll have a fighting chance at preventing others from success!
- Oftentimes, melee goons don't bother with spells; in spite of the advantages they offer, they're a bit of a hassle to cast, especially when your spell power's so low. Any recommendations on good spells for every melee brute to know that actually helps rather than hinders in death? Haste seems the obvious choice, and you only need spell failure down to 49% for it to be available to your player ghost...
IRC Chat
I've created a webirc channel ##crawlwiki for us that we can chat in from your browser (click the link to join). I'll also be hanging out in ##reddit-roguelikes when playing. --Flun (talk) 23:48, 10 October 2013 (CEST)
Brave Attempts or Glorious Splats
Only the wins are easy to find, so I looked up of the longer played characters who didn't find the orb.
