Does anyone still play?

I quit KoL about six months before I joined HL. The RNG kept angering me.
-
I probably still have an account, just have so many things to do in one day already that I don't know if I'd have time to add KoL back to them ;)
-
ill try it as long as i can play with HLP... i'm not very good at lone-ing it at these games, nor am i any good t making friends.
-
Well it's mostly a single player game but the main reason I want to recruit is that Shade and myself want to have a go at Hobopolis and that gets better with more players. :)
-

Had that problem myself, and actually quit for a while because things started taking too long after an update broke all my time-saving Greasemonkey scripts. Now, though, thing are working again and blowing through ~180 turns takes only thirty minutes to an hour if I'm not too concerned about maximum efficiency :) Of course, setting that up just right also takes time...
Oh, and about Hobopolis, someone bought that shield I put up for sale (and for way more than I expected to get for it... apparently someone needed one really really fast and was very desperate :p) so we've got the money for a basement now :D

I'll give it another go.
::EDIT::
Gotta love that 60-day deletion policy. First time 'BloodEagle' hasn't been taken in a game.
-
Started and stopped several times, it just doesn't hold my interest.
-
What's the exact name of the clan?
-
We're The Harrrdy Light Boys.
-
You aren't accepting applicants. :ick:
-
Yeah. I noticed that. We are now.
-
The Haiku Dungeon kicks so much ass, now.
-
i play from time to time
-
The Haiku Dungeon kicks so much ass, now.
I didn't try that last night. I'll have to give it a go today.
-
:eek2: i knew i should have copied the favourites from my work laptop before i handed it in back in 06........
I'll try to see if my lord muscle is still there..
Ummm, can anyone tell me what e-mal is attached to that character if its still showing in the clan list?
-
Flipside and Shade are the only people who still have characters in the clan and Flipside's is marked as inactive.
-
I started a new character, "lord dekker" I've not even made my meat car yet and i'm out of turns so when i get back into it.. i owe someone some star gear if i remember correctly :nervous: I'll join up again :D
-
You might as well join up with the clan again.
-
I plan to, i just need to level up enough :rolleyes: oh the indignity.
-
Once more, with feeling. :P Back to the grind...
-
RAWR!! Oyster egg day again.. Seems like only yesterday, but i keep overdoing the booze when i get to my last turn......
Just like real life :lol:
-
I'll start playing again! I love being a Seal Clubber. I am azile0 in-game, so watch for my application.

Nice to see the ranks swelling a bit :) If any of you need any buffs or what not to help speed an ascension, just mention it in the clan chat or through a PM and I'll see what I can do. I have most buffs available to me, and I believe Karajorma does as well, so we should be able to help out a fair bit if you want it. Also, once I get out of Hardcore, I'll see about adding some decent food and booze to the stash so you have less stuff to worry about on your first run.
Another thing, once you get to the high levels (and by high, I mean 15+), we've got a cool new guild area to play with - A basement with our very own personal dungeon, which is very challenging even at high levels - I personally had to resort to using stat potions at level 16-17 just to survive in one of the sub areas. And it's a cooperative dungeon, meaning we can help eachother progress through it and our kills all add up towards the total we need to access the bosses... bosses which drop some of the greatest items in the game. So there's some incentive to level up :D
-
Some shop is selling cottages (about 70 left) at 100/per, right now.

Good point. I'll add some later today. I have all kinds of stuff I'll probably never eat.
-
Well, I accidentally mis-calculated my booze consumption, and ended up with 16 drunkenness. I believe 15 is falling-down, right? Anyway, that was 7 hours ago. How long does falling-down last? W/e. I'll just go check.
-
Drunkeness, hunger (lack thereof), and spleen intake are reset at 11:30 PM, if I recall correctly.
-
Alright. That is also when the server goes down for maintenance. Dammit.

If the 40+ adventures you get every day put you over 200 adventures you should burn off the extras in either the clan gym or the special area opened up by your zodiac sign or they are wasted. Otherwise you simply wait until tomorrow. :)
-
:lol: for some reason i thought i had to at least beat the boss bat before the Clan District opened up.. But then i remembered donating a load of meat engines to the new boys..
I've applied.
Since my graphics are screwed at the moment iu'll stick to good old KoL :yes:
-
I've added a couple of meat maids (completed) to the coffers.
-
I put a few odds and sods tin myself. :D Why no clan dungeon yet? I've only been away from KoL for 2 years :lol:
-
Oh, we have a dungeon :) And it's still kicking my ass at level 19 :(

09/08/08 09:24:47 AM - Your status within the clan The Harrrdy Light Boys has been changed.
Ranking: Clan Member
Title:
It might work for me now, i'll check with my last 6 adventures for today..
(i'm very drunk and very full but i levelled up from level 2 to level 6 so adventures well spent :@ )
Mc-Edit--
You don't really have time to fully explore the sewers right now.
Maybe not :(
-
You need to have at least 10 adventures left to go into the sewers because one adventure can cost you 10 adventures.
-
That aside, I'd also advise not going there until you've gained some more levels. It is, ah, painful :p
[Edit] Speaking of the dungeon, managed to open up the cold area today. Have fun :) Seems to have a higher hobo nickel drop rate than the town square, too.
-
I have about 300 adventures to spare. Although I want to spend some fighting dooks (for money) and some where ever I have to go for filthy lucre today. I can leave the cold boss open though if you think you can face him.
-
I could only barely manage the regular enemies there... boss I suspect would demolish me in short order :p
-
First adventure at South of the Border, and I get a Donkey Flip-Book. :D
-
Oh well done! That's a semi-rare item. :)
-
El Dia de Los Muertos Borrachos!
Today only, you can see ghosts and kill them, ie- "steal the spirits, spirits" I've got a Corpsedriver, but i accidentally got smashed on Whiskey Sours :nervous: so can't try it, or earn any others. on the bright side, i got myself a blood faced volleyball, a Vorpal blade i can't seem to use, and a pair of funky 1337 7r0uZ0RZ
that i can't wear either....despite none of the items displaying a needed level. :rolleyes:
must need levelling up i guess.
-
What's the HLP clan called?
-
just type "light boys" into the clan search and it's the obvious one :)

You need more moxie to use the 1337 7r0uZ0RZ.
-
But i'm the moxiest (only DB0 on the team...Racist pigs. that's what those trousers are.....

I signed up for a different clan a while ago when I didn't know of any HLP clan. Any way to quit a clan?

Go in to the member list, click the check box at the bottom, and then click the corresponding button.

Check it out, i managed to level up enough to don the stuff...:D
Zhade (shade?) Cheers for the ridiculous amount of buffing you gave me :nervous: It helped out a lot :yes:
-
Doiuble post, i know but :p
Why no message board in the clan-shack? I just noticed?
Also, it's a weird question i know, but does anyone have a surplus of rotten brains?
-
You mean disembodied brains? Might have one of those lying around if that's what you need. As for the message board, the old system got scrapped and replaced with a new one at some point and our board went with it - Just haven't gotten the new one. Seems like a cheap enough addition though... infact, it looks like the first board is free, so I'll set one up.
[Edit] And the forum is ready.
-
Hey, looks like I'm the only one picking from the meat bush. :nervous:
-
KoLMafia should be automatically picking it for me when I sign in.
-
I exploit the bush every day.
-
I always take the meat from the bush and place it directly in the coffers.
:EDIT:
Whoops, double entendre. :eek:
-
OK? Which of you put a "murky potion" in the stash?
I'm sleepy as hell now and i need Azraels Unicorn :( ANy buffs well recieved...
-
I'll try to send some over when I next log on. Unfortunately I've been having to use massive amounts of mana in order to do less damage to the Hobos (yes you read that correctly - As a 31st level character I do so much damage with each hit that I'm triggering a side effect I don't want instead of being able to gather up the items I do want). :D
How's about I just add a Soft Green Echo whatever to the clan stash so that you can simply remove the effect instead? :D
-

To avoid that in the future, check the wiki. :P
:EDIT:
Sent you some low-level buffs.
-
No worries Blood Eagle *shifty accusing stare* :lol:
The tired wore off, i just went to the batcave and thwacked a few about before the buffs were (greatfully) recieved.
I dunno if rotten brains are tradeable, i was having a slight issue with that siamese zombie in the crypt. 9makes me appreciate my old account).
-
My old warrior-class account had 4 (IIRC) HC ascensions on him. It's a shame that I didn't have a Mr. Item.
-
I have a Mr. Accessory you can borrow for a rollover if you want to make the account permanent ;)
-
That sticks even if you give it back!? :eek2:
-
what is KoL? it sounds fun.
-

Yep. All you need is to have one in your inventory once during a rollover, and that's it.

Damn it, I knew someone who had one back then. :ick:

A browser based game. I've found that any type of music goes well with it.

I'll have to try that once i near completion. I think one of my old contacts has one. . .
-
KOL as always is in on this pirate lark :nod:
I've bought my inflatable duck, water wings, and foam noodle to go frolicking in the market square fountain. (some nice effects for each accessory :yes:)
And i've sent my little bro copies of each, now i own his ass till he pays me back :lol:
-
Do Filthy Lucre disappear when you ascend?
-
Nope. It would be a complete pain in the arse getting the Tome otherwise.
Most of your possessions will survive an ascension.
-
Is it random, or do things over a certain level die?
I've yet to ascend for the first time, do i keep my skills? Cos i want my liver of steel and cocktailcrafting skills to remain..

I'm going to have all of my guys go through an Oxy-Core, followed by a Bad Moon. Because I want that damned cat. :cool:

SCrew hardcore, i think i'll go normal boozetafarian, keeping superhuman cocktailcrafting.. Or advanced. Depending.

I only ever play hardcore. And when I feel tough I play oyxgenarian too. :D
Bad moon is next.

Fine i don't wanna appear to be weak.. lol.
Hardcore next,..................grumble. :lol:
ps- I managed to get an Angry goat today. I'm sure it would be better if it's name wasn't publicised. :nervous:

I'm in the middle of the level 12 quest, and I have to say that I honestly miss the level 11 quest. :eek:
-
I prefer the level 12 one to be honest. The level 11 one was rather fiddly.
-
Well, it wouldn't be so bad if I wasn't going for the best medal. :/
-
Ye Gold Frontes are made of win. :p
-
Well, it wouldn't be so bad if I wasn't going for the best medal. :/
GAH! I must have miscounted. :(
-
You talking about the Whasname medal? The coldfront wiki is quite useful on that matter.
*Cough cough zhademybuffsarerunninglow cough cough*
-
Sorry, haven't had so much time the last few days. Other things have kept me far too busy. I'll try to find time to toss a few around though.
-
You talking about the Whasname medal? The coldfront wiki is quite useful on that matter.
I screwed it up with my Seal Clubber. I must have miscounted after a bad page-load, or something. One more rollover and I'll get it on my Sauceror, though.
-
Sorry to hear it mate, Assuming i get no dodgy page loads, I think its a case of doing one war, then one side quest, repeat for the other side etc, but i need to plan mine meticulously... It's pretty much the only major goal i have other than earn superhuman cocktailcrafting which is just a case of making L15 and paying 15grand :lol:
-
The best way (the one with the best rewards) is:
65 + sidequest + 65 + sidequest + 67 + sidequest + 67
You do that for both sides.

Started Hobopolis today. I'm almost through the sewers, and I got a Filthy Crown clan-trophy off of a C.H.U.M. Chieftan.
-
Nice :) We've already cleared all the sub-bosses, but still plenty to do in clearing the town square and killing the head honcho :D
-
I'm gonna have to cut down on a lot of net :(
But i'm on the penultimate fantasy airship so i might get a magi-tech mech at some point.

I wonder if KOL works on work PC's :nervous: /me checks
AIEEE, blocked by URL filter database. :shaking: stupid work. I'll have to buy an I-Phone, just for KOL. :mad:
-
Chances are that your workplace (your trying from your workplace, right?) connects through a proxy which blocks KoL. You could try a free proxy, if they are stupid enough to let you change it.
-
I was never much good at KoL, but I might join up again when my laptop is fixed.
-
Wow, the town is at 21o already. :eek:
Side note: I checked the mall; corncob pipes and frayed rope belts are way too cheap for how good they are.
-
Yep, we're almost within striking distance of the Big Bad. In fact, I make it just 273 more kills needed to get there, *almost* what can be done in a well-fed day's work :D
-
I'm going to have to find a way to cripple my player then I'll spend a bunch of turns there. Right now I do so much damage I can never get any hobo nickels.
-
Bwahahahaha! Bumped it to 23o! We'll be getting massacred by the Hobo King by Friday! :arrr:
-
And... big bad = dead :)
-
The Penguin Mafia is starting to worry me. :shaking:
-
Since the Hobolord is dead it's time to divide the loot and fill in the basement. I've got no problems digging it back out again once I've done that.
Loot will be distributed amongst those who made a major contribution in Hobopolis, which to my mind works out as myself, Shade and Blood Eagle. A few others poked their noses in but didn't manage to do much this round. So Shade and Blood Eagle, is there anything you particularly want out of the loot?
-
Ol' Scratch's stovepipe hat looks nice. :D
-
It's all amazingly good so having to single something out is hard... I want it all :p But anyway... the Bow Tie is particularly nice, but that thing's *so* good compared to the rest that we should probably let chance decide who gets it. Other than that, the Wand of Oscus looks very appealing since I'll be doing a pastamancer run soon, and Chester's Bag of Candy for the same reason since DB is also on the 'do soon' list :)
-
Loot distributed. I'm going to flood the basement so everyone can have another go. :)
-
A few others poked their noses in but didn't manage to do much this round.
I can't help but feel like that summed up my experience... :lol:
-
Well, what was I going to do compared to you folks? Gnaw on his ankles? :P
-
You could make grenades (moxie), bandages (mysticality), and protein powder (muscle).
A grenade will stun a hobo for 3 or 4 rounds.
Bandages heal approximately 500 (I've seen it go as high as 570) HP.
Protein powder does approximately 120 damage (from what little I've seen).
Making them gives a fair amount of stat points.
----
By the way, I can one-hit hobos with my best spell, now. :D
-
I've unlocked the fire zone.
-
Nicely done. I'm still only about 5th level so it will be a while before I get there to help. :)
-
Ifreakinlovekol,

Here are my plans for the next few months:
BE: On Normal Sauce, then OC Pasta (take Flavour of Magic), then BM Pasta (take Spirit of Rigatoni), then HC Sauce (take Torso Awaregness), then BM Disco (take Heart of Polyester), then pure SC runs.
AB: On OC Seal (take Double-Fisted Skull Smashing), then BM Seal (take Torso Awaregness), then OC Turtle (take Tao of the Terrapin), then BM Disco (take Disco Power Nap), then HC Seal (take Eye of the Stoat).
LS: On HC Disco (take Torso Awaregness), then BM Disco (take Superhuman Cocktailcrafting), then OC Accordian (take Powers of Observatiogn), then OC Turtle (take Amphibian Sympathy).
Any suggestions?
-
Disco bandit honk up some stuff and make pink ponies. Then drink said pink ponies. That makes for happy good times.. . . .if you're moxie based.

Any suggestions?
That's certainly not the order I would do it in. Amphibian Sympathy is a highly important skill. In fact it's the first non food/booze skill you should perm. A passive 5% increase in your familiar's level is very, very useful. Spend 10 turns and 1000 meat at the cake arena and you can have a level 9-11 familiar instantly. And that's nothing to be sniffed at since if you adventure with the volleyball you'll go up in level pretty quickly that way.
And I still don't have the Flavour of Magic or Spirit of Rigatoni IIRC :D
My advice would be to grab the item and meat skills next. The two passive skills from the gnomes will give give a 20% boost forever. Depending on how much you like your money and items you might want the two non-passives too.
And I highly recommend building up a good store of skills before going Oxy. The other two aren't bad but without a good set of skills Oxy will be an enormous drain of time.
-
I'm planning to stay a sauceror (on BE), and I don't like having to wear that cursed glove. :/
I'm not going to ascend him for a while, though.
-
Nicely done. I'm still only about 5th level so it will be a while before I get there to help. :)
...lolwut? :P
-

He ascended, silly.
-------------------------
One more rollover and I'll be taking care of Ol' Scratch.
-
Even so. :P
-
Do the bosses start with full health every battle?
-
Yes. If you lose you have to start again.
Although the Naughty Sorceress does get easier if you've lost a previous fight.
-
Let me know if you want me to drop him for you. Could do it now, but you did by far the most work to get there so as far as I'm concerned, the kill is yours of you want it :)
-
I can't kill the bastard. With super-ungodly-theoneone fire resistance, his attacks do: around 40, around 280, and around 380 (my health is around 360). The most damage I ever did was around 5600, and he was spamming his weak attacks.
-
Ah, yeah, that low health will cause problems against some bosses. You might boost it fairly high with reagent potions though... try using, in order, a Tomato Juice of Powerful Power (tomato + scrumptious reagent), an Ointment of the Occult (grapefruit + scrumptious reagent), and finally an Oil of Expertise (cherry + scrumptious reagent). That should boost your muscle enough to seriously improve your survivability.
Also, if you don't have it yet, the Exotic Parrot from the Black Market will increase your resistences as it increases in weight, and may allow you to survive another round or two.
-
How much?
-
It increases one resistance type by one level for every 4lbs, cycling through hot, cold, spooky, stench and sleaze in that order. Each resistance level if cumulative with all previous levels. So at 20lbs, it gives one resistance level in each of the five elements, and 40lbs it gives 2 level in everything.
-
I've not adventured in weeks. I managed a sly login the other day if only to keep my account open. I'm on the airship if i recall. But i'm gonna grind in the valley or pirate cove. Recommendations please?
-
Adventure whichever will give you the higher stat and meat gains without killing you. :) If you choose the valley make 3133t scrolls as they can be used to get ten leaved clovers from the hermit. You might also with to try grinding in the Menagerie Level 3 as the booze drops there are pretty high.
-
Where's that? I tend to stick to quest areas. :)
-
It's in the Cobb Knobb Lab. If you can't handle the Penultimate Fantasy Airship, then I reccommend the Cobb Knobb's Treasury, as you get high meat-drops.
I also reccommend eating Unidentified Jerky (7 a day, plus one food item that adds only '1' to hunger), if you don't have a lot of meat.
-
Oh the lab :lol: I forget about that after level 7. I keep trying to eat the Farmsworthy cones and dying too at the moment. God i miss my old character :o
-
Ok, killed scratchy. If it makes you feel any better, I had to use potions too :p
-

Cans of asparagus aren't normally all that scary, but this one's got a knife!

I should have Frosty unlocked after rollover.
-
I should have Frosty unlocked after rollover.
Done.
-
The sewers are mean. I walked in and took a 142 HP hit before I could even attack. That's 27 more HP then I have.
-
What level are you? You're meant to tackle them after the Naughty Sorceress.
-
10, with slightly-crazy stats due to too much time on the hoboflex machine. :P
-
Killing crap is better than hoboflexing for anymore than ten adventures per day.
Ps i hope you wipe it down when you finish, other people use it too :p on that note where's that masseuse?
-
It is. But wading through the 200 adventurers that built up is not always an option. And it doesn't unbalance your stats so your disco bandit has more strength then moxie. :P
-
Depends where you advbenture, i drink Pink Ponies to re-moxify anyway :nod:
-
Damn me, and damn Coldfront. :mad2:
-
Why?
-
It wasn't loading that morning, and I decided to start one of my BM runs, regardless.
-
Sometimes, mostly on weekends, I get on Loathing just to flex my 200 adventures before I leave for the weekend.
-
I just created a char. The Great Gun.
-
The Heap is open for business.
-
Looks like you're going to be getting most of the goodies this round BloodEagle. But on the other hand you're going to have to pay the 1 million meat to dig out the basement as Shade and me paid for it this time round. :D
-
One million meat?!!???!!!? I'm gonna give that level a miss until my coffers a bit fuller. Wouldn't want to accidentally clear it :nervous: as if.
-
Nah. I don't mind paying for it if I'm getting the benefits of it. The problem is that I paid half of it this time round and then ascended almost immediately afterwards. So as a result if Blood Eagle clears the whole of hobopolis singlehandedly then I've paid 500,000 meat with nothing to show for it.
By the time you've got a character who can make a significant dent in Hobopolis you've probably got a fair bit of meat anyway. 1 Million isn't that hard to raise. I could probably make that much in 4-5 days if I did nothing but farm for meat.
-
I have about 170,000 in meat, at the moment.
-
Whilst idlychecking the cold front wiki. I stumbled across my next ambition..............
http://kol.coldfront.net/thekolwiki/index.php/Ninja_pirate_zombie_robot
The ultimate Familiar... *swoons*
-
It isn't a good familiar, you know. Even if it was, it's expensive as all Hell (http://kol.coldfront.net/thekolwiki/index.php/Zombie_pineal_gland) to make. I mean, they're (the glands) going for ~710,000 meat at the moment.
-
But........i want one :(
-
It requires a lot of work to make one and there

Wow. I never realised they were going for so much. Kinda wish I'd farmed a few more of them at the time now. :)
-
I think they were priced at ~300,000 when I played back then. :/
-
Oscus is unlocked, and he's a bastard.
-
Hmm. I should take some time out from working on the shore trophy to help you clear that place out.
-
Feel free to kill Frosty and Oscus, while you're there. :nervous:
-
Well, I have 5 turns left I think, so maybe I'll try to hit them tonight and hope I won't fail more than ones per boss :D
-
I'm going to go through the sewers tonight or tomorrow myself.
-
Both dead, with 1 turn to spare :)
-
Gave Zombo a kicking too. We don't seem to be winning quite as many prizes this time around. Wonder why.
-
Probably just the luck of the draw, I imagine. Oh, and the PLD is now open for business.
-
The Chester is down, and I need to take a scalding hot shower.
:EDIT:
And he didn't drop anything, save for the clan trophy and bag of candy.
-
New Clan title: booze master :pimp: thanks guys.
-
I'm getting close to half a million meat.
:EDIT:
Broke 520k. Those mall-bots must slow the game down significantly.
-
Recent Store Activity (past 48 hours)
12/09/08 14:25:33 Sivek bought 50 (unstable DNA) for 90000 Meat. :eek:
12/08/08 14:59:05 znci bought 11 (insanely spicy bean burrito) for 11000 Meat.
Total income: 101,000 Meat
-
I kinda wish I'd kept all my fat stacks of cash now. They're worth a fortune on the market (as are briefcases) at the moment.
As an aside I had to get myself a greasemonkey script to automate the Crimbo zone cause last night I spent over 400 adventures there. I have no idea how people can play KoL without KoLMafia or Greasemonkey to be honest.
That said I managed to go up an entire level in one day (which is saying something when you're level 22). Used up a ridiculous number of cans of silly string though.
-
I farmed a load of DNA (I have about 1000MP, now), only to find that the market price has gone down. :(
-
Well, they still give a really nice effect, so it's not wasted at least, just... less awesome than it might've been.
-
I'll just farm them, and hope that the price goes up within the year.
-
Yeah. Market speculation is a tricky thing. In general I've usually made a fair return on my investments but there have been a couple of times I've lost my shirt on a deal.
-
Well, that's it for Hobopolis this time round. Luckily Hodgman wasn't as stingy with his loot as the sub-bosses were, and gave up two vault items, a book (Link (http://kol.coldfront.net/thekolwiki/index.php/Hodgman%27s_journal_4:_View_From_The_Big_Top) - it's tradeable so I'll send it to Kara), as well as some flasks of booze - 3 of those in fact, so one for each :D
[Edit] It seems the skill given by the book is *not* marked as Hardcore Permanent when you get it, so it has to be permed on ascension. Just so whoever gets the book is aware of this and doesn't waste it.
-
That's a nice skill. :eek:
-
Does anyone have anything they particularly want? I was planning to do an AT run next and none of that stuff (apart from Hodgman's) is of any use to me so you might as well take first pick guys.
Do remember that me and Shade paid for this run and will probably have to pay for the next one too though. :p
-
All I want is Ol' Scratch's ol' britches. And I have 625k, now.
-
Interested in Hodgman stuff obviously, book or hat in particular as I've got no hobo power yet. As for the rest, nothing this time round that really strikes my fancy - Got the bag of candy and wand last time, and my next run will likely be as a Pastamancer so nothing left that'll help.
Oh, and for making money, remember to hit the duck farm every day with a meat-drop familiar equipped. Those things can give 10k easy per day just for the 15 turns, and maybe as much as 20k if you're buffed up beyond all reason.
-
Yeah. If I use 10 turns of Mick Inhaler I can quite easily farm around 20k there. And it's even higher now that I've got myself a scratch 'n' sniff sword.
But even without that stuff you can still get a fair chunk of meat from there and the Giant Castle.
I'll have a look what everyone got. I think two items each for me and Shade and 3 for Blood Eagle seems fair especially if those getting two take Hodgeman's stuff.
The main question becomes when should we flood Hobopolis and dig it out again? Right now I'd rather spend my turns in Crimbo Town so if no one is going down there we might as well wait.
-
Agreed, let's wait till after Crimbo.
-
Agreed. I didn't spend any real time clearing out Hobopolis once the Crimbo events started occuring, anyway.
-
The Penguin Mafia has sent in Hit-Penguins! :shaking:
They're dropping Grimacite Knee-capping Sticks. :yes:
-
And also the rather cool Canteen of wine.
-
The drop-rate on that knee-capping stick is starting to piss me off. :wtf:
-
I don't think I've got one yet and I spent over 200 turns there.
-
It annoys me despite having gone up a couple levels since my first attempt at it, crimbotown remains frustratingly able to beat me to death in about three combats. Or less. :P
-
Those monsters scale to your stats... so no matter how high you go, it won't help :nervous: There are a few things you can do to tilt things in your favour though:
First, forget about boosting stats, particularly Moxie... ideally, your Moxie should be the same level as your Muscle or lower - This will effectively lower the monsters' level as the stats they scale to are lower. Second, equip the highest-power armour you have, regardless of other bonuses, as this will migitate a fair amount of damage. Third, use any buffs or equipment that directly boosts damage without also improving stats, as this will let you kill them faster without them gaining levels. And fourth, use a deleveling familiar like a Barrnacle.
[Edit] Also, just sent some buffs your way that should hopefully help some.
-
Personally I just load up on purple snowcones and then lunging-thrust-smack my merry way through them all. :D
-
Yep, same here (well, no snowcones... I've got more than enough mana for a day of LTS just using the three massages from the war sidequest). Works well when you have a bunch of ascensions... LTS is not really a viable strategy for a DB with no ascensions yet, though :p
-
A Disco Face Stab should make for a good strategy in those situations though.
-

See, the problem is, I've used up a lot of adventures on the hoboflex due to lack of time. So we are way, way, above, but I can't reliably land a hit and a single combat chews through about half my hitpoints.
-
Eye of the Stoat (if SC). Hairspray (if ranged).
-
Note to self: Don't start a BM run during Crimbo, next year.*
*You can't get to Hagnk's, and therefore can't get the free-pulls. :mad:
-
I've never done a BM run (It's actually the next thing I'm planning to do, Although I'm going to be badass and do it all Black Cat). Can you still get into the clan/hobopolis?
-
You can use the gym equipment during a BM run. I haven't tried the jukebox, and would imagine that it doesn't work.
As for Hobopolis, well, the option to enter the basement exists. I don't bring my alts in there, though.
-
Huzzah! A 'depleted Grimacite kneecapping stick' is mine!
I can finally start helping The Penguin Mafia wipe the treacherous Mutated Elves off the face of Crimbo Town ('08).
-
Well done. I just spent 150 turns fighting the Penguins (with Transcendent Olfaction) to get a Psycho sweater and the damn thing still hasn't dropped.
-
Ridiculously low drop rates on the stuff, says I.
-
Thank god for Grimace being full today.
-
Well done. I just spent 150 turns fighting the Penguins (with Transcendent Olfaction) to get a Psycho sweater and the damn thing still hasn't dropped.
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
Finally got one! :D
-
Yeah, one finally dropped for me yesterday too. Funny thing about all this Christmas stuff is that I'm already level 29 and I haven't even started my basement dive yet.
-
The Crimbomination sure is an ugly thing. :eek2:
-
The Crimbomination sure is an ugly thing. :eek2:
"You lose 22,640 hit points."
Oww. Chrissakes, I've only got 215.
-
It picks you up in one betentacled claw, then picks up another adventurer in the other. You hear the other adventurer say, "Hi, I'm White Nite. Do you get smashed into people here often?" before the two of you collide with a sickening crunch.
It picks you up in one betaloned tentacle and throws you at Krinex, your fellow adventurer. It probably hurt her as much as it hurt you. Well, we can hope.
It grabs you in a betaloned tentacle and squeezes you until your eyeballs bulge. Damn your eyes!
:lol:
-
Using the Spirit of Crimbo against it seems to work.
-
Anyone else think that the next clan dungeon will be Uncle Hobo related?
-
The thought did cross my mind.
-
The Crimbomination really needs to die. He/She/It's completely saturating the DNA market.
::EDIT::
Broke a mil. :D
-
YAHOO!!!! Toy Ray Gun*!!!
Side note: 24 item grabs on my main (and I missed a couple of days worth of adventuring). :D
*ranged weapon (1-handed pistol); 175 power; +5 Hot Damage; 2x chance of Critical Hit
-
Only ten items here, but then I spent time doing bounties and meatfarming/shoring too. However, I finally got the last trophy I was aiming for this run (and boy did that take a while), so now all I have to do is get another three moxie for level thirty and jump through the gash :D I do hope I can remember how to play at low levels, cause it sure has been a while :p
Oh, and I suppose since Crimbo is over (for real this time) we should be getting together the cash to reflood the sewers again. Personally I've got about 500k saved up now that can go towards it. Oh, and the loot from last time still needs distributing. Mustn't forget that.
-
I have a million, though that isn't a surplus. And I kind of want to get that damned parrot, now.
-
You should, it's very useful. Especially in Hobopolis' elemental zones... so I'd say spend your cast on the birdie first :)
-
Back on to the subject of dungeon items, since it was so long ago:
Ol' Scratch's ol' britches is the only thing that I want and can make use of. So feel free to fight amongst yourselves for the rest of the loot. :P
-
I'll divide the loot up today. KolMafia has been giving me static lately so I've been reduced to playing the game via a web browser! :p
-
Hey, it's not so bad... it's what I do :p I can recommend using Greasemonkey and some of the scripts listed Here (http://kol.coldfront.net/thekolwiki/index.php/List_of_all_Greasemonkey_Scripts_(Categorized)) to make your life easier until you can destaticify your resident mob penguins. Particularly the Mr. Script... script... and the Click Saver, as those both save a lot of time and headache.
-
Actually I already use Greasemonkey in my KoLMafia browser window. In fact I already use Click Saver. It's especially useful for things like the Crimbo zone which KoLMafia doesn't cover yet. I don't use Mr Script so I'll have to try that one.
-
I really, really want to drown my black cat. :mad2:
-
I think, as with the OAF, that's the whole point of that familiar :p Oh gods... imagine a familiar with Black Cat/OAF functionality. Actually don't, cause it's the stuff of nightmares.
-
I would like to take this time to thank Our Lady of Perpetual Indecision. :P

Scarysauce (8652)

-
Came across a link on the KoL forums that might be useful if we can't figure out how to distribute Hobopolis loot (though I don't see this happening... requires more greed than is present in our little clan :p), or even just for saving time: Automated Hobopolis Loot Distributor (http://erikdev.com/parser/), Forum Thread (http://forums.kingdomofloathing.com/vb/showthread.php?t=166383), Example Wishlist (http://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=pBPW6O96bMMtgtK7f4S24DA)
-
Well, I'm thinking that with christmas well and truly over, it's about time for another Hobopolis run. Now, Kara's level 30 already so should probably give him time to ascend and level up a bit before flooding the sewers, while BloodEagle and I are probably still some weeks away from ascending ourselves if we're both going for level 30. So, a little over a week from now would probably be a good time to flood the sewers to make sure we're all in a state to participate. But even so, we can at least get the loot from the last run divvied up :D Gave it a bit of thought and have this suggestion:
BloodEagle:
Ol' Scratch's ol' britches
Chester's bag of candy
Wand of Oscus
Zombo's skullcap
Karajorma:
Hodgman's harmonica
Skill book
Shade:
Hodgman's porkpie hat
Frosty's nailbat
BloodEagle put in the most turns while Kara and I paid for the run. So BE gets the item he wants plus some extra goodies, I get the +Hobo-Power item since Kara got the one from the last run, Kara gets the Hobo-Power conversion offhand since I got the one from the last run, and then he and split the scraps. If everyone's satisfied with this, I'll hand it out in a couple of days. If not, then complain loudly here and I'll come up with some other distribution :p
-
Seems good to me. Sorry I haven't divvied up the loot yet but the simple fact is that I seem to only find time to play KoL for about the 10-15 minutes it takes to do a meat farming run.
-
I haven't had much time to log in lately, myself.
On a side note:
February 10
KoL accounts will no longer be deleted due to inactivity.
There goes my incentive to get a Mr. A. :P
::EDIT::
I just discovered a great combat message.
He makes a bomb out of several D batteries, a circuit board, and flashing lights in the shape of a cartoon character. It doesn't explode, but you're trampled by frenzied reporters.
What an obscure place for that reference.
:lol:
-

No worries, I don't recall us having a rule saying that you have to do everything :D Although, if you're not going to be ascending for a while, maybe we should open up the new instance now so you can farm for nickles as well? Not to mention getting some loot out of it at the end, of course. And as far as I can tell, the elemental zones don't care about overkilling the monsters, so you can get them there even at level 30 without having to worry about doing too much damage.
-
uhm, so how would i join the HLP group?
-
From the main screen, go to "Seaside Town" -> "The Clan District", search for "Harrrdy" (yes, with three R's), click the result that has a link to HLP in its description, and apply. Then post your KOL username here so we'll know to accept you.
-
Loot distributed, and the new Hobopolis is open for business. Looking at the roster we actually have a lot of people of a level to contribute this time, so by all means join in if you want to :)
-
Heh, it's the useranme i use for almost everything for almost 2 years. HLP_Titan.... :nervous:
-
I certainly have a knack for getting captured in those tooth-resistant cages. :ick:
-
Log on now and start heading down then ;) Kara and I just started our runs, and it helps when you're 2+ people as then you can let eachother out of the cages.
-
I already
drank myself into a stupor exceeded my liqour quota for the day. I should have the time to log on on Friday, though.
-
I certainly have a knack for getting captured in those tooth-resistant cages. :ick:
I managed to get all the way through without hitting a single one. No idea how.
-
Shade is running through them. :eek2:
-
I'm going to burn my 200 adventures in the gym.
-
I just
discovered noticed a BM effect that would prove very useful in the aquisition of Hobopolis items (e.g., if you saved all of the bosses until the last minute).
Your #1 Problem
To put it delicately, you're in serious need of a trip to the powder room. You're not up for any physical effort right now, you look ridiculous dancing around with your legs together, and you can't concentrate on anything.
All Attributes -20
+100% Item Drops from Monsters
-
Where do you get that effect? I'm starting to run the sewers, but I need a 1h weapon with 200 power. So I can equip my Tuesday's Ruby. +5% Muscle is nice. I don't think I'm going to ascend for a while.
-
What buffs are you using? I can send some your way.
-
Where do you get that effect?
The bathroom.
::EDIT::
Found a 'natty blue ascot' on my alt, which is worth around 400,000 meat on the market. :D
This is a neat ascot, the color of true blood. It's the type of thing worn by the upper crust -- the cream of the cream, as it were. It'll help you with the acquisition of the best things in life, all of which, it turns out, are money.
Type: accessory
Mysticality Required: 10
Cannot be discarded
Enchantment:
+20% Meat from Monsters
-
You might not want to sell that though. Over the long run it can pay for itself due the pretty large meat drop increase it causes.
-
I just realized that Snowclone stacks. XD
Poor Oscus never stood a chance. :p
-
I found a good 1-h spear on the market, for like, 10,000 meat. I'm selling my stinky bundle to get it. I only needed that thing to kill the Ghosts in the MacGuffin quest, anyway.
-
It's easier to put together Scrolls of Ancient Unspeakable Evil, than to train for the ghosts. Just so you know.
-
The Hobos are dead, time to distribute the loot. Using the automated loot distributor gives me this
Zhade #1 of 4 (3098 turns)
Thrangor The Cold #2 of 4 (1517 turns)
BloodEagle #3 of 4 (888 turns)
Although that doesn't take into account who paid for this run (I can't actually remember if I put any cash in but I'm sure Shade did). Does anyone see anything they particularly want? I wouldn't mind Ol' Scratch's ol' britches ahead of my basement run but apart from that I'm fine.
-
The only things I'm interested in are Hodgeman's and Ol' Scratch's pants, as I can zap them into the Bowtie and Ash Can respectively.
Since I did the least (I'm not quite sure how Shade managed to get that many adventures :eek:), however, you guys deserve first picks.
-
You're fighting a malevolent crop circle
Just as you're about to use that item, Parkinson D. Lupus bats it out of your hand, and you have to spend the next couple of minutes fishing it out from underneath a couch. It's as adorable as it is annoying.
You are somehow beaten half to death by a field of grain. How it does that is one of the great unsolved mysteries of the universe.
Oof! Eek! Ooh! Oof! Ouch! Ugh! Ooh! Eek! Oof! Ow!
You lose 45,017 hit points.
You lose. You slink away, dejected and defeated.
:mad2: :mad: :hopping: :mad2:
This is going to be a long climb. :ick:
::EDIT::
The climb took around 50 adventures.
Now I have to find a way to beat the shadow. :ick:
-
You've not beaten the NS yet? Why on Earth did you wait this long?
-
This is my alt's BM run. :P
-
You can find black striped oyster eggs (the best of the eggs) in The Haunted Gallery today.
-
Interesting. There's a fair bit of meat there and since I'm concentrating on farming I may break my giant's castle run to take a look.
-
So WTF is Kingdom of Loathing? Looks to be a web-based parody of every single RPG ever released.
-
Yep. That's basically what it is. :)
-
Hmmmm. I may have to check it out. What's the learning curve like?
-
If you use the Wiki? There isn't one. :D
-
It's a wonderfully witty game. Sure to make you chuckle. I pop in to train up a bit. I don't think I'm going to kill the NS for a while. Farm up on Hobos.
-
I think I'll have enough health to one-shot the shadow in one week (provided that I encounter the semi-rare in the goblin harem). :blah:
Freaking black cats. :ick:
-
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
Results:
By completing a 100% Black Cat Bad Moon run, you have permanently unlocked the Bad Moon sign for your character.
-
Nice work. I'll be trying that myself in a little bit. :)
-
I wouldn't recommend trying it as an accordian thief. :P
-
Shoring takes forever. 700 down, 300 to go. :blah:
-
:bump:
The new guild quest is evil. And I mean Satanic ritual evil, not Mr. Rogers evil.
-
I've not had the time to try it yet. I might spend some turns on it tomorrow.
Of course the big question is what the hell do we do about this Month's IotM? I mean it requires 3 Mr A's between us somehow. I currently have one and I'm farming a lot so I might be able to dredge up the 4-5 million for another but with Shade AWOL I don't know how I'll ever afford the 3rd one unless I sell something.
-
I've been too busy the past month to really do anything, though I've some free time coming up. I have roughly 780k in raw meat at the moment, and I can probably scrape together another 0.8 million by lowering my mall prices (I really don't want to do this) and adding some stuff to it. :/
I wonder how much the new dwarvish gear is going for....
:EDIT:
Nevermind, I just checked, it can't be traded. :blah:
::EDIT::
I removed a bunch of stuff that wasn't selling, and auto-sold it all. I'm up to 1 million, now.
-
Don't worry about it too much. I'm sure I'll find the cash somewhere.
-
I still need to get one of those keys. :P
-
I'm limited to half an hour at a semi-local library once a week for net access. So once a week i use the Clan hall, ffs i miss my Familiar levelling up.... :ick:
-
Don't worry about it too much. I'm sure I'll find the cash somewhere.
Well, I haven't had as much time (or inclination) as I thought that I would, so I'm nowhere near the price of a Mr. A. I'll end up getting the key some other time.
Do you need any meat, or did you manage to get enough for the new area?
-
I sold a shedload of stuff in my store and managed to raise the money myself. Now I'd just got to raise the cash for a final Mr A so I can go in there and use it. :D
-
I've opened up the second clan dungeon now.
-
I made a slime-covered lantern. :)
-
Neat. I've hardly touched the slime dungeon so far.
-
I'm slowly working my way down. After I figured out that the slime-creation thing doesn't reset (which kind of irks me), I Noblesse Oblige-d myself an aria of annoyance, since the slime hole doesn't give out any worthwhile statistics/adventure like Hobopolis does.
I'll pay for the next run (as it isn't expensive), and rather than go for slime items we could go for the turn-limited stuff.
::EDIT::
I don't think chamois will stick around for the next run if it isn't balled up, and after +100 ML the slimes don't like to drop it.
-
Yeah. I noticed that. I think I still have a bail somewhere. Good idea on using annoyance though. I might have to try that one myself.
-
Armoured core reference above :yes:
-
Ah, KoL. I created a clan called FreeSpace way back when. Before the gaming board came into existence, that is.
-
Prestidigysfunction + Dad quest = :hopping:
-
So I've become clan leader due to inactivity. :lol:
I've bundled the chamoix (we have five bundles, now) and stored it in the stash.
I've reached The Mother Slime. And she/it hurts. A lot. With moderate slime protection, she/it one-shots me for a good 590 damage. :ick: So unless I can find some more slime-protecting items, I can't kill her/it.
------
On another note: I think something big is going to go down soon. There are earthquakes and floating rocks everywhere.
-
:eek2:
/me logs onto KOL.
i got really miffed at that dad quest and took time to cool off..
-
I finished shoring! Fear my big boat trophy! :cool:
:eek2:
/me logs onto KOL.

You start to get used to it after the third run-through. :/

Speculation on events
I can only think of three possible references for the current happenings around the kingdom: Tremors, Dragonball, and Magic Carpet. I'm really hoping for a Magic Carpet reference. :D
::EDIT::
You reach down to pick up a Tuesday's ruby off of the ground, but Pure Evil playfully bats it out of your reach and into a nearby sewer grating.
:mad2: :mad2: :mad2: :mad2: :mad2:
-
I saw my first earthquake at the oasis but didn't get any references from the text.. Not seen any floating rocks yet, whereabouts do they occur?
Dragonballs mentioned somewhere already isn't it :nervous:
-
Well, you run into a new monster every 30 adventures or so. Said monster drops floating sand. The description reminds me of the scenes where rocks started floating, so....
Dragonballs mentioned somewhere already isn't it :nervous:
Yes (http://kol.coldfront.net/thekolwiki/index.php/Draggin%27_ball_hat). ;)
-
Yeah, I've not had much time for KoL this last month. I'll try to log on soon though. :)
-
Have the earthquakes stopped yet?
-
July 28
The magic in the air is getting magicer, and the aftershocks are coming less frequently but more intensely. Still nothing to worry about.
Like I said, something big. :D
-
Gawd I hope I can finish it before the end of the universe :)
-
:bump: Happy porktober the first. One of my personal faves. What a babe!
-
Ye-e-e-e-ah.... :nervous:
In unrelated news, it takes 60 mysticality points to move from level 29 to level 30.
....
....
/me sighs.
-
Use the clan bookshelf.
-
I get 1 mysticality point per 100 adventures spent that way. Not a very good method for power-leveling. I'd actually rather have the '+5 adventure / day' item, than the bookshelf. :/
::EDIT::
August 04
The magical vibrations in the air (and the regular vibrations in the ground) have reached a fever pitch.
:D
-
It's porktober ;)
I'm gonna be playing this at work today I think.
-
Is KoL SFW? :nervous:
-
SFW? What's that, I bothered to actually buy another store today. . Look for it :)
-
:bump:
My fair usage policy is acting up, i can't change my costume and i want to go tick or treatin... My first porktober the eighth and i'm missing it :(
PS, i can't get this anymore right?
Crimborg Assault Armor

Eh? I thought it was a Chrono Cross reference....

Most likely.. But i like the helmets description.

New familiar. Damned thing requires ridiculous amounts of floaty sand to make.
-
Is KoL SFW? :nervous:
I can't think anything about it which isn't...
-
Yep it's all pretty much FUBAR, but in a good way.....
August 11
The Adventurers of Loathing have long been critical of their spells. Tonight... the tables have turned.
Elaborate anyone?
-
Spells can achieve critical hits, now. :D
Early spading indicates a 50-100% bonus to damage.

<floaty stones, that takes AGEeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees.........>

You need 125 pieces of floaty sand to make the lobster. And that's without getting the deep sea items (which I refuse to do).

August 18
We've rolled out the first .001% of the new Nemesis Quest stuff -- the revamped Dark and Dank and Sinister Cave. Your Nemesis awaits! Again.
Took long enough. ;)
-
Agree, about bloody time. Only X amount of years.
-
I'm doing quite well now :)
Finished off my nemesis, grinding around the pyramid, (Although i've ridden the sandworm now) I've got a Pagoda and my Heavy Metal Thunderrr Guitarrr. Quick point, when i try to go to the sewers in the clan basement, it tells me "I shouldn't be here" what's up with that?
>>UPDATE<<
I'm now at the fratboy-hippie war. Any questy type one-off things i should get before i start it/during it?
-
Bit late, but... if you want to Wossname it, you'll need a flaregun. I personally recommend not bothering with it. The gains acquired aren't worth it, unless you're going for rare items.
----
Nine tries to get a worthless trinket. Damned RNG. :ick:
-
Wossname it? :confused:
Plox elaborate.. I've not finished it yet, i'm using the opeprtunity to go around everywhere else in an effort to grab random crap. Although the Pirates have left and i really wanted some vibrato-stuff >:(

-
To Wossname it, you have to kill all but one of the soldiers on both sides of the war. Then, with a flaregun in your inventory, adventure there (without a war costume, I believe). Then fire the flaregun. You'll wipe out both sides of the war (locking off the arena for that ascension)*, in exchange for a slightly better reward.
*You'll actually lock off the arena if you kill a certain number of troops (80%?) on the side that holds the arena.

Also, thanks for noticing my Booga Booga Booga! :P

-
You're welcome :D
How the heck do i keep count, i've been ripping hippies asunder. I doubt the hippies would like me to be honest........let alone fight on their side :sigh:
-
You have to count, because the monkeyscript for the island doesn't work. :/
There's a chart on Coldfront's wiki that helps (as every optional quest you complete lowers the number of needed adventures), but you still have to count manually.
Honestly, it's easier to take one familiar with no experience or kills (make sure that you don't use the 'like animals' buff from the friars), and (using the familiar for only one side of the war) track your adventure usage that way.
There are 1000 troops on each side. So if you wait to do the quests until the very end, you would have to use 999 adventures for each side, then adventure the final time out of costume and with the flaregun.
-
Well i've screwed the pooch already on this one :lol:
Guess i'll have to do one ascension, get my moxie sign then redo it all again..... :lol:
-
As of this moment, I have in my inventory (among other things): awful poetry journal (108), duct tape (116), furry fur (133), heavy D (140), hobo nickel (200), ice-cold six-pack (18), original G (128), valuable trinket (48), Warm Subject gift certificate (343), Angry Farmer candy (106), Mick's IcyVapoHotness Rub (104), probability potion (109), thin black candle (233), chaos butterfly (180), plot hole (179), procrastination potion (88).
Oh, and I sent you some reagent potions. They don't sell anymore.
-
Gah, stop being so generous. I don't know what reagent potions are lol.
-
They consume spleen, rather than hunger or sobriety. :P
-
But. . . But. . . I need my spleen. Don't i?
-
No more than you need your liver. Pansy. :P

I'm sporting the 09 sports model liver of steel.
I'm disco bandit for life.

I just maxed out my last familiar. 720 lbs (sans-items and buffs). :D

:eek2: 720LBs times how many = wtf turns?
My popor little mosquito (Baron Pointynose) is only about fifteen LBS. And i've used him almost exclusively......

:eek2: 720LBs times how many = wtf turns?
Turns Played: 26,742
No ascensions on that character, yet. I'm waiting to hit level 30, so I can get that damned trophy.

October 02
The Grudge noncombats in the Haunted Bathroom have been collapsed down to a single choice adventure. Happy leveling!
Best. Update. EVER.
::EDIT::
Must have gotten 15 main stat points in 250 adventures. Ascended. :D
-
You walk into the Arrrboretum and run smack into the sappy pirate. It's a little awkward, since you stick to him briefly before you can pry yourself off. "Hey, swabbie," he says, "I already gave ye a bag of saplings to plant. Why aren't ye carrying it with ye? And how do you think that makes me feel?" You walk away as the pirate's eyes start to tear up. Man, what a sappy pirate.
Fun, one you equip your saplings.
IT's ARRRRBOURETUM DAY!!!!!!!!!!
-
Not worth the adventures spent, unless you're going for the outfit. :ick:
-
What outift?
-
If you adventure there 100+ (?) times and return the next year, you get a piece of equipment (it's junk). If you get all three, and equip them all, it forms an outfit. Talking to the pretentious painter with an outfit on gives you a new tattoo.
So unless you're going for a 100% completion (impossible) rate, there's no point to waste the adventures.

How very kind of him. The shivans must be beating him into doing it...
Bloodeagle your buffs are always welcome too :nod:
-
I just started an Oxycore run on my main, so no buffs from him for a while. :P
Figures that they'd do a big Halloween event, this year, though. :ick:
-
They did the same thing a week ago. The KOL wiki at coldfront.com has a calender that lists the holidays.
-
//Necrothreadaged
Just thought I'd give a heads up to the people (myself and Dekker) who are still active: Start conserving your adventures, as there's no telling how early they're going to start Crimbo events. After last year's event, I'm really hoping for a badass Penguin Mafia war.
Oh, and the Halloween Event items suck. I'm not even going to use the chest, it has more value as a collector's item.
-
I'm gonna have to eat some food and drink some booze. Sixty pink ponies ought to do it.
Where the hell is the rest of the clan by the way?
-
China.
::EDIT::
HAH! Figures they'd pull a no-adventure event.
Editorial: The Only Good Wizard is a Dead Wizard
by Mark Led Lush
In the past, this newspaper has expressed a strong anti-magic stance that may have offended some of our readers. We deeply apologize for those past bad acts, and, by way of reconciliation, we offer this hearty endorsement of the Festival of Jarlsberg. As the streets are flooded with well-wishers, vendors, and louts, let us remember why we celebrate.
Accounts of Jarlsberg's life, as sketchy and unreliable as they are, indicate that he was an excellent man as well as a powerful wizard. His alleged good humor and his alleged charity and goodwill towards his fellow man are reason enough to celebrate him. Most importantly, though, Jarlsberg is dead, and has been dead for many years.
We encourage all magic users in the Kingdom to seek to emulate their hero in all possible ways as they make merry on this Festival of Jarlsberg. Let us all raise a glass for his sterling example.
-
Actually I've been playing the last few days. No way I was going to miss the Crimbo adventures. :D
-
You can access KoL through China's watchdogs? You'd think something like that would be blocked. :P
-
Don Crimbo the penguin requests your audience.
No way i'm turning him down........... :nervous:
Oh yeah, just noticed, i'm third highest in the Clan...
I want authority naoh!
-
I haven't actually changed anything yet, and don't want to. :nervous:
Besides, there are only three ranks.

:bump:
December 14
Crimbo Town is now open for legitimate business in the Big Mountains.
It. Is. Time.

Oh, and the Hobo Horde thing is was starting to irk me. You know, what with all of the misinformation in the Loathing Herald-Times-Tribune-Messenger.
-
Is anyone else interested in trying to get ourselves a tree in the VIP room?
For that matter can anyone other than me get into the VIP room? :p
-
I can't get in there, so I don't really feel like wasting my crimbux. :P
And this Crimbo really isn't fair to anyone in OxyCore. :/
-
They should know better by now than to be in oxycore during Crimbo. :D
-
*Ahem*. :mad2:

:bump:

What's that? and...................you should use KOL as a training aid for jour stewdence ;7
-
You buy access to the VIP room with a Mr A. I have a fair bit of cash so I could afford one but I don't think anyone plays enough now to be able to get one. I want to start playing again at some point soon though.
-
Got back into it myself not too long ago. Quite a few changes from what I remember, so lots of exploring to do in interesting new zones :) For now though, I'm just ascending to get down some more skills as well as hunting for some trophies.
-
Submitted a join request. My name is.... A Schnozzle.
-
Killed the boss slime monster in the basement, so there be loot to distribute :D A rather impressive hat (Hardened Slime Hat (http://kol.coldfront.net/thekolwiki/index.php/Hardened_slime_hat)) and a yucky gland (Slime-soaked sweat gland (http://kol.coldfront.net/thekolwiki/index.php/Slime-soaked_sweat_gland)). You guys can work it out among yourselves if you want since I didn't do any of the work to actually clear the place. That said, if anyone wants to trade a piece of hobopolis loot for that sweat gland, I'd be willing to talk, since we also have plenty of that still to be distributed ;)
I do intend to start another run at it as soon as those are distributed so I can get in on the action, though, and apparently I can't do so while there's still loot to hand out so don't take too long to figure out who gets what :p
-
I just want Ol' Scratch's ash can. :/
So you guys can decide what to do with all of that stuff.
-
I could assign you Ol' Scratch's ol' britches (http://kol.coldfront.net/thekolwiki/index.php/Ol'_Scratch's_ol'_britches), of which we have one, and which according to the KoL wiki can be zapped into the ash can. How does that sound? All you'd need is a wand from the Dungeons of Doom and enough patience to get the result you want without exploding the wand :)
-
I'm happy tio just hit the hobo-flex every couple of days.
-
Well, BloodEagle has what he wants (or at least can zap what he got into what he wants), Karajorma is going on holiday and noone else seems to care, so just going to distribute the rest (while trying to avoid any duplicates for anyone), and then open up the dungeons again so we can get MORE LOOT! :D
-
Classy.
Dear ngtm1r,
Okay, I'm not good at this kind of thing, but I feel like I have to give it a try. So, here goes:
I was hanging out the other night, listening to some old mp3s, and I was just overcome with memories of when we used to hang out all the time. Remember? You were an intrepid, fearless adventurer, and I was the free-to-play, fun-and-funny online role-playing game that won your heart. Do you still remember those good times? I can't stop thinking about them.
I mean, I know things got kind of messed up at the end, and believe me, I'm sorry. If I could take any of that back, I totally would. And I know people grow and change, and you're not the same person you were then, but hey -- I've changed, too! I thought and thought about how to win you back. I figured I'd make you a mix CD, but I couldn't decide what "our song" was. So I just concentrated on becoming a better game for you, and here's what I came up with:
Remember how much fun you used to have with your clan? Alternately, remember how you never joined a clan because you didn't see the point? Either way, clans now have clan dungeons, group zones where your whole clan can work together. Crawl through sewers to Hobopolis, a vast underground vagrant vacation vista! Slide into the slime tube, and stir-fry sassy slimes!
I know I wasn't the prettiest game when we were together, so I had some work done. Almost every interface got an interface-lift. You can even manage most of your inventory via chat commands! I also came up with a way for you to automate some of the things you don't love about the game, so you can spend more time with the parts you do love.
Not only that, but there are way more animated .gifs than there were before. Don't worry; I haven't lost that low-fi edginess you love, but I'm a lot easier to play with now.
You can also have a custom title now, just in case you didn't feel like I appreciated what made you unique as an individual.
I should also say
Haiku Dungeon's been revamped.
See what I did there?
Maybe you quit because you got sick of always adventuring above the water. I admit that seems unlikely, but I fixed that, too -- there are a bunch of underwater zones with new food, equipment, mechanics, and challenges.
And that's just the tip of the iceberg, trust me. I'm still the silly, clever, deceptively-complex game you fell in love with, only with about 95% more awesome.
So, I'm just sayin', if you can find it in your heart to give me another chance, I won't disappoint you.
If you don't drop by, I promise I won't bother you again. I just really felt like we deserved one more try.
Love,
The Kingdom of Loathing.

So . . . . . Are you two back together now?
-
Nope!

Awww boo. . . .
I'll look after her. She's gentle.

She's probably sent me a letter too....the slut! :p
-
I'm now going steady with KoL and all you lot are our step-kids AKA- "Lord Dekker is now in charge"
Tempted to spend all the clan dosh on nick-nacks tbh. :nervous:

Lolwot?
Make your mind up. 50K for a masseusse? Do they think i'm Wayne Rooney or something?
Ps- don't call me Son k? Really rattles my cage. ;)
-
Lolwot?
I decided specifically to do it to make you feel bad about this? :P'
And spending several hundred adventures onshotting stuff never really gets boring.
-
I decided specifically to do it to make you feel bad about this? :P'
Never gonna happen :p ;)

Guess what..........
Today is the Feast of Boris!
Eat, eat, eat!
-
It's Crimbo guys! I've decided that I've been away too long and it's time I got back into KoL. Currently adventuring in hobo town so we can get to the Christmas adventures. If anyone wants to join me, just shout.
-
If i new how homeboy, i'd see ya there.
-
Go into the clan and then into our basement.
-
ohhhhhhhhh, my crimbcalender is on.
I've never been able to venture through the sewers before.Is there a level limit / restriction?
-
my clan lacks a basement, or other members, id disband it and join whatever hlp clan there was, just so i could have a basement. but i sure would miss my hoboflex.
i have put fourth my join request
-
I accepted Lord Nothing into the clan. I assume that's you.
-
I am prodding at the Sewers myself, though it's tough work at L14
-
I'll come give you a hand.
EDIT : Maybe I won't. It hasn't rolledover yet so I'm still drunk.
-
I accepted Lord Nothing into the clan. I assume that's you.
yep
currently falling down drunk though
-
Eh, I'm good for a couple of combats before I have to go spend some time puttering around the campsite, I'll make it eventually.
-
Lord Nothing :) cool name. All the best name's feature Lord in it :D
-
They certainly didn't change much, while I was away. :eek:
-
I'm really going to have to invest in a better house at this point, I spend way too much time patching up after action.
-
I am unable to log in without being timed out on some part of the screen. It is most unhelpful.
-
Weird :confused:
It appears to b working fine now.
For the record, i have at least a hundred and fity adventures.......and have valiantly decided to live in the sewer cage indefinitley. :cool:
-

Not anymore.
-
Booo...... I was quite settled :(
-
Oh Noes! FILL OUT YOUR TPS FORMS, QUICK!
-
Crimbo items this year look interesting. All of them seem to grant skills, although you have to perm them like a normal ascension skill if you want to keep them for later. Not the greatest skills, but not useless either. And skills alone are a lot better than the recurring gift set that has been used (albeit with a new paint job each year) for every crimbo I've seen until now :)
Also, a new clan furnishing if you gather enough scrips. Gonna see if I can manage to snag one for us while also grabbing the skill books.
-
Yep, I'm working through it myself. Only problem is that I have no spare adventures to spend in Hobopolis which means I guess we're not grabbing anything else from the the hobo elves.
-
I've still never seen Hobopolis outside of kol.coldfronts wiki :nervous:
-
Only problem is that I have no spare adventures to spend in Hobopolis which means I guess we're not grabbing anything else from the the hobo elves.
Same. Can't spare any. However, I somehow doubt that the new area is just a one-off for this crimbo. Sure, it'll shut down on the 25th, but I'm fairly convinced it'll open up again next year. Besides, the CRIMBCO skill books are more interesting :)
I've still never seen Hobopolis outside of kol.coldfronts wiki :nervous:
It'll be easier to get there when you're leveled up :D Hobopolis is quite painful below 20th, really.
-
Bu...bu......but, i'm a big boy now :(
-
Yeah, you might just be ok at 18, too :) (Aside note - Thank heavens we don't have to wait till 18 to drink in-game, unlike many countries :p)
Oh, and more Crimbo stuff: Make sure to grab some paperclips, as multi-using 25 of them gives you a set of pants that give two extra rollover adventures. People with time trousers excepted, of course.
-
Yeah, I have a pair of time trousers (In fact I saved up and have the whole outfit plus another sword for my spare hand) so it's not that useful to me but the less fortunate should find those great, just change into them before the end of the day and you're sorted.
Are you still going for the fax machine for our VIP room Shade? Cause I'm willing to take a punt at it.
-
I've got a few hundred scrips. I cant give them away though can i ? Ummmmm what VIP room?
-
You buy access to it for a Mr Accessory. It's got a few nice toys in it.
-
Why is my main character always in Oxycore during Crimbo? :mad:
-
I've still never seen Hobopolis outside of kol.coldfronts wiki :nervous:
i kinda want to go there.

i already got the complete paperclip outfit, and the first skill. next up, executive narcolepsy. im hoping i can get all of them before crimbo is over. have about 700 scrip.
You buy access to it for a Mr Accessory. It's got a few nice toys in it.
i have a mr accessory
-
Nuke you cheeky git. You toilet papered my house!!
:lol:
-
I have a very special revenge planned. :p
-
You distract it and punch it in the stomach when it's not looking. It deals 1 damage, and leaves it reeling.
Monster Attack Monster attack power reduced by 1
Monster Defense Monster defense reduced by 1
You win the fight!
I checked, and there isn't a trophy for this. :/
-
i managed to get all 5 crimbo skills.

New! From Uncle Crimbo
Date: Saturday, January 15, 2011, 11:03AM
Hey, kid, the elves were going through Mr. Mination's files, and we saw that you were pretty generous with this whole Covert Crimbo thing, and maybe the person who was buying you gifts, not so much.
I'm a guy who knows a little something about always giving out presents and not getting much in return, so I figure you could use a little payback. So I thought about having some of my old Mafia penguin buddies pay your CCB a visit, but then I remembered the spirt of the holiday and all that crap, and I just whipped up a sackload of presents for you.
No need to thank me, unless you want to thank me in booze. Nah, just kidding. I've got the elves working hard on building me a distillery, so I'm good.
You acquire an item: Uncle Crimbo's Sack
It's about 600 scrip worth of stuff.
::EDIT::
On checking another character, it appears to scale with what you gave, rather than what you didn't get.
-
i gave pretty heavily and all i got was a dickory farms basket
-
Oh, wow. I had almost forgotten that game.
I was always a Pastamancer or a Sauceror
-
looks like i now run the official hard light kol clan. since all the administrators have gone inactive, i made myself one of them. also since i hold a mr. a, this likely makes me the permanent ruler of the clan. so beeifing your karma and waiting for an admin to go inactive wont work. muahahahaha!
-
I get a whole wing to myself. :D
-
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooo!!!! :mad:
-
il put you back up to alpha wing if you promise not to feed me to the shivans :D
-
I get a whole wing to myself. :D
i want to put somone in gamma, looks like its yours. this comes with forum moderation privileges and some order of power over newbish ranks.
-
Nuke, I won't feed you to the Shivans ;)
-
consider it a friendly coup then :D

ME-EGA BU-MP
--
This new 'Bees Hate You' path is Brutal.
-
Bees Hate You?
Is this a post-Valhalla thing?
-
Yes. And there are seasonal challenges now, though I'm not sure how many they plan to have. The current one (listed for Summer 2011) is 'Bees Hate You':
-For every 'b' in your equipped items, take 10% damage.
-You can't use most items with a 'b' in them. (this is the Brutal part)
-Bee-based enemies will attack you every set amount of turns.
-And other, more spoilery stuff.
I'm a level 5 Disco Bandit, so I kind of dropped the ball on this one.
----------------
As an aside, they really killed the purpose of HC-perming, since you no longer have to do any HC runs to HC-perm anything.
-
Really? How do you perm stuff on a non-HC perm run?
-
I'm level 19 and still haven't bothered to smite the NS. I've got by scuba gear. But appear to be vulnerable to fishy attacks. Advice?
-

You spend karma to perm skills. And karma doesn't reset to zero after you descend.
Softcore perming costs 100, and hardcore perming costs 200, but hardcore perming a skill that's already softcore permed only costs 100.
A softcore run gets you 100 karma, a hardcore run gets you 200, a hardcore bee run gets you 300. You can discard instant karma for 11 karma.
Oh, by the way, you don't get path rewards until after you kill the NS, and you can't use them until you are level 13. This doesn't actually affect me all that much, but it still seems kind of 'bleh'.

im still going for trophies. i dont want to ascend till i got all the trophies i can get without needing to do multiple runs.
-
My Bee-core run just got more Brutal. :lol:

Interesting. How did you manage that?
-
It was equipped before the update. :D

Whaaaaaaaaaat? You're telling me that I've hd mine taken away?
:jaw:

More like converted, than taken away.

Okay, so unless you're in SC or really far along (say, the pyramid), you can't use any of the normal sleeping aids (which means a flat 5HP/5MP per rest). That means no NewBie tent, no Barskin tent, no FrizzBo house.
The only one that you can use early on in HC is the cottage, which means that you need anti-cheese (which I haven't gotten, yet).
To get anti-cheese, you have to take a vacation to the dude-ranch area. If you can't wear shirts, you have a one-in-nine chance of getting the cheese. If you can (and I can), then you have a one-in-eleven chance.
Taking a vacation costs 500 meat and 3 adventures.
I just finished taking vacation no. 42. :banghead:

Any negative impacts?

It took 70 trips. That's 35,000 meat and 240 adventures. All for one piece of anticheese.
I'm more than half-way to level 10, now. And I still have to do all of the quests ranging back from the friars. :ick:
::EDIT::
I forgot that the miner's weapon was two-handed. Damn it.

::NECRO::
October 15
A big pile of junk mail just got delivered to the basement of every Clan in the Kingdom. At least the ones with basements
I get the feeling that we're about to have a new clan dungeon. :D
-
so i get this
There's a big pile of flyers for some kind of sorority fund-raiser haunted house on the floor. It looks pretty lame.
Luckily, there's a business card on the floor nearby for a flyer-removal company.
McRipoff Recycling Co.
Buried under paper? We'll take it off your hands, and bury it under dirt. Er... sell it to companies who will use it to make environmentally-friendly post-consumer recycled products. It's green!
Just 500,000 Meat
Your clan coffer currently contains 1,001,001 Meat.
what to do what to do?
-
I say we wait until the
traitorous cowards people who took some time off from KoL can work on it with us.
-
i looked it up on the wiki and aparrently removing the fliers does this
A team of guys with wheelbarrows make short work of the pile of flyers.
It turns out that underneath the pile, there was actually a coupon for a free group visit to the haunted house. And underneath that is a big map with directions to the house. Maybe you should all go check it out, after all.
-
I'm really going to have to fight the urge to check out the wiki, on this one.
I've become too dependent on guides. It's time to get back to my exploratory roots.
-
And the flyers are gone.
Did I miss something, or was this a limited time only?
-
yea i think it was halloween only. probibly another teamplay arena type thing. but i dont think our clan has enough active members to do any of those anymore.
i put you in beta wing, since i really havent played kol in weeks.
-
:bump:
Well after a year of inactivity on KOL, I've had a word with Jick and got reactivated :yes:
-
ive been off so long you could probibly stage another coup in the clan leadership
-
Wait...."Another coup"!?
-
well i kind of aquired clan leadership by dekker being absent long enough for his account to go into limbo, and thin i just had to click on the right button to take over. of course i did pay the donation so i dont think my account can go into limbo.
-
Ah, that's boring. I was imagining an epic battle between a Seal-Clubber and Disco-Bandit. There were seal skulls and martinis everwhere!
-
I'm the ONLY ACTIVE clan member. :/
Can has loot nao?
-
well i didnt steal everything :nervous:
or did i, i cant remember
-
CLEAR! *fwoomp*
I started back up about a month ago.
News: There's a new clan dungeon available. Not sure if anyone else wants to come back just for that, but I figured I'd put the word out there.
Also, Avatar of Boris runs are cheating.
-
It's about time to see if anyone still plays this.
