DungeonCrawl thread 3: It is a thing of beauty

[PlumFinder]

Well now, is this a third thread or what? It is. I'm pretty certain we won't make it to number four, so make it a good one.
Previous thread can be found here and here.

Update:



'Brown, get this thing working again.'
Brown starts repairing the Fire Sword. It will take two turns to be completely repaired.
Red once again tries to reason with Navy.
'Why do you protect that man that has sworn to defeat your employer? Navy, I have one last request. I know we're opponents but please, just let me kill that fucker.'
Navy doesn't step aside. Red goes back to attacking.
Grey doesn't even bother trying to attack anymore. He'll probably just get Gusted again.
Yeah, see? There he goes.
Red Gusts off Grey and towards Brown, but Navy Protects him again, and punches Red in the face.
Where 'punches' means 'tickles', because Navy's Attack is practically non-existent.
The renewed battering from the Chest Golem does not do the job either.
Red takes No Damage.
Navy takes No Damage.

I hope you're not going to get caught in an endless loop like this, because this is rapidly going nowhere.
Also, imageshack is going to delete lots of my pictures, meaning the first two games will soon be pictureless. Also, part of this one, probably. What do?

[Belonoid Anoesis]

Answer for your question is within the spoilers, Plum. Read it.

I suggest that you use another image hosting site and upload the images you used to upload on imageshack (e.g: imgur).

Make sure you have ALL images from the first, second and this one's thread of DungeonCrawl on your computer/laptop/whatever. Also, prepare to edit the ENTIRE first thread, second thread and this one after you move your images to the new image provider. It will be a tedious amount of work, but at least better than nothing.

If my suggestion somewhat does not work, I'm afraid I don't have anymore alternatives. Good luck.

EDIT: Or I may even help with getting ALL your images before they expire if you want to.

You could also store the images on dropbox, and rehost them from your public folder. : O

[PlumFinder]

Yes, well, I know that rehosting is kind of the only solution. It's just that I have 1300 pictures I'm going to have to replace.
Which is a lot and I'm not looking forward to it.

[elitepastafa]

One solution is to make sure you have all the pictures on your computer, then see if you can find someone willing to host a mirror of the games. Enough people like them that I'm sure you can find someone.

[Stinkosar]

Man reading this thread is much more interesting and less dramatic then being in it maybe...
Huh, wonder how a loser would look at it...

Now I can't even talk to other ghosts.
Sigh."

Kidnap the pets of the owner of Imageshack, tell him/her he/she'll never see them again if they don't give you unlimited hosting. Also ask for some cash.

Red

You're a real bitch, you know that?

Red doesn't even bother anymore. He gusts Grey and shatters Navy's most defensive item, which is probably the cape.)

[BlazerC]

Navy

Navy rolls his eyes and raises his shield to defend Grey and Brown again. He gets a little surprised when he shatters it in his face.

'Oh. This is gonna suck.'

Thinking somewhat quickly, he notes Red isn't protected in one certain area... so Navy promptly knees Red in the groin.

[Lazyboy21350]

Brown

I fix the shit outta the fire sword.

Steve

Steve will punch Red in the face.

[Ross_Varn]

Perhaps enlist the aid of a few willing forumgoers with extra space to rehost a certain number of pages from each thread to a single imgur account or something? Or even, yes, get a mirror in the fan adventures site to preserve this for the ages? I certainly wouldn't' want to see it go.

[AJfriss]

Grey

"I feel like a pinball"

Try not to land on any of the corpses. Also, try not to smash your head in on the wall. Trying to jump off the wall after being bounced into it over and over is not good for a few reasons:

1: You're just gonna get knocked into it again.

2: You couldn't reach red if you tried

3: You're wearing half a set of heavy armor, you aren't going anywhere but down.

[Red709]

hey Plum, since they were destroyed when Yellow died, I'm curious: what were the half-eaten corpses for?

[Fengar]

My guess is that they were the special item for the Gluttony fight.

[PlumFinder]

'You're a real bitch, you know that?'
Red isn't too happy with the way this fight drags, and shatters Navy's Bone Buckler. It now only gives +2 Defense.
Navy isn't too happy with the way Red destroys his items.
'Oh. This is gonna suck.'
He kicks Red in the nuts.
Steve adds to this nutkicking by hitting Red in the face from behind.
Red takes No Damage.
Grey gets Gusted again.
'I feel like a pinball!'
It turns out, he is a pinball! Wall Bounce, Ten points.
Brown finishes repairing the Fire Sword. He hopes Red's ass will soon be thoroughly kicked.

I was só tempted to just use the same image again as last time, just to highlight how this battle has been pretty much going the same for three turns.
But that would've been stupid, so I didn't.

[Kocel232]

BALLS OF STEEL.

[Lazyboy21350]

Brown

I toss Navy the Fire Sword.

"Here! Lets end this once and for all!"

Steve

Steve will keep slamming itself upon Red.

[Gecky]

Red

Wait a second, Green is dead!

YOU KILLED GREEN!

Red charges at Brown and gusts Grey. Can he shatter and protect at the same time?

[BlazerC]

Navy

Navy smacks Red in the face with his shield to protect Brown, catches the sword, and without hesitation, burns through his Air Slicer.

'All yours, Grey!'

[Red709]

yeh Blazer can use melt and protect simultaneously

basically the protect is a passive action that causes Blazer to automatically take hits for whoever he's protecting. the protect only deactivates if blazer's target attacks while being protected.

so it's basically like gust except in reverse. Gust stops enemies from attacking you but deactivates if you attack them; protect stops enemies from attacking a teammate but deactivates if its target attacks.

[PlumFinder]

Brown finishes fixing the FireSword and hands it back to Navy.
'Here! Lets end this once and for all!'
Red isn't paying attention. His sorrow over Green's death is still too great.
'YOU KILLED GREEN!'
He gusts Grey again and charges Brown, but Navy is still in the way.
'We did.'
Navy Melts through Red's Air Cutter. It is now completely useless until repaired.
The Gust effect wears off of Grey, who regains his balance.
'All yours, Grey!'

This fight won't last much longer.
Unless I wait another week with updating, I guess. Let's hope not.

[Belonoid Anoesis]

Meanwhile, in the dream bubble...

Sand: ?
Sand: I can see a part of the dungeon event far away.
Electric Blue: The obvious end to the battle is nearing.
Sand: ...
Sand: Yup, Green's dead. Again.
Yellow: You know, I am not surprised that this would happen.
Yellow: Not my most desired near-end, plus it's quite boring right now.
Indigo: Um...
Indigo: Emerald isn't anywhere to be found.
Yellow: Shut up, Indigo.
Electric Blue: She probably was traumatized because of such a great peril, so I assume that she fled away.
Yellow: *sigh*. Women.
Indigo: I guess you should keep your mouth shut too, Yellow.
Electric Blue: Stop fighting, you two.
Yellow, Indigo: Whatever.

Without any of the dead realizing, Green has also entered, but from afar.

[Red709]

welp. GG Red, you're gonna die

[Gecky]

Red

In a final, desperate act, Red lunges at Grey. He knows he'll be blocked but who cares, it's probably his last chance to deal some damage.

Alternatively (Which means if possible), Red, lacking any honor what-so-ever, just... Enters the shop!

I'll take it that Navy took no damage? Also, is the damage calculated before or after the shatter?

[BlazerC]

Navy

I toss my shield to Grey and warp infront of Red, arms out.

'Sorry mate. You ain't leaving this alive.'

I tackle Red to the ground so he doesn't leave the fight, where I pummel and stab him. He ain't leaving alive.
