    Next comp?

    We haven't played NPP in a long time. The version before the UI change?

    Maybe Blackguards again, without artifacts being nuked?

        Rocketband with a HE mage starting with two Rings of the Mouse. Or a kobold rogue with a rod of detection. You'd have to be impossibly lucky to get detection spells otherwise.

          Was that a thing? I thought it was just random.

            Apparently it was a thing - I feel a bit more sane now

              Yep, an instance where I demonstrably ruined the game
              One for the Dark Lord on his dark throne
              In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.

                  No, no. You see the original devs ruined Moria by adding artifacts, you're just finally fixing it. Next up you need to remove firing in any direction other then the 8 cardinal directions.

                    We could try NPP.
                    Nick should never blame himself for the development bug. It happens, flip that. My win was flawed, because the best players were stripped the chance of winning. I know I did a good run, but the fact that guys pursuing me never had a chance, makes the win flawed.

                    Let's go for NPP

                      Your win was awesome, I would not have beat it

                      Nick is awesome. Managing an entity with a passionate community behind it is a big job. I'm glad I don't have it. I'm grateful that for me Angband is a leisure activity and not a job.

                        I'll get round to adding nppangband sooner or later, or we could go with an annual Sil-Q competition?

                          I think ster wanted a Sil-Q comp. Not sure if you'll see that as an argument for or against one
                          The Complainer worries about the lack of activity here these days.

                            Sil-Q is a worthy inclusion to the competition rotation, IMO.
