Comp 158

aka the Sil 1.2.1 Speed Symphony Competition, Angelic Demon Bullet Hell Edition.

http://angband.oook.cz/competition.php?showcompo=158

The goal is to escape with one Silmaril with the lowest turncount possible.

GO FORTH AND BREAK THE GAME

This would be a fun instance where a game clock would be neat: You could have 2 comps at once. Fastest turncount winner and fastest real life time spent. Perhaps the same person would win both at the same time, but I think it would be fun anyway.

DCSS does both of these as achievements or whatever in tourneys, and I think the players who get the lowest turncount often take their time doing so

Or buff up to 7-8 STR and lug the crown out of the throne room.

Buffing up to 8 str from 0 might be a bit of a stretch

I have no idea with the comp. I don't do pacifists... heck, I can't even not kill Morgoth. Perhaps I should just play my normal game and hope it's quicker than the singers...

Given your #2 on the ladder, that strategy will probably work.

wobbly will become famous soon enough
I think I need to retrain myself to deliberately step in to chasms. I have this automatic habit of trying to avoid them! I'm going to try a stealthy belter - charge & disguise. I doubt I'm in contention for 1st anyway, so may as well just play partially sane.
