Sounds about right.
Sidenote: SV was 2 by the end I think. We failed.

Blib you have done a great pr?cis but here are the actual words used. Below is an abridged log file sent to me by Xarubbabel. What strikes me is the remarkable absence of English in what is said. The total disregard for grammar, punctuation and, above all, spelling is spectacular, making it difficult to follow the plot. What follows is verbatim; except that I have deleted a fight with the stag and various irrelevant wanderings. An aggravation to all this rubbish is the deprivation of sleep suffered by all. I have attempted to translate (in square brackets) what was said into standard English. There are no guarantees that I am right.

The killing of Darkrogue brings the role played by the Bash-General into the spotlight. Generally
(no pun intended), while there is clearly no illegality in PK?ing during a bash, it could be considered undesirable because not only does it reduce, by its very nature, the number of players available to deal with mobiles, but when a PK comes into the land, so many players rush off to the sanctuary of the Tearoom and it takes a lot of coaxing to get them back out.
Here we have a situation where three players, Kingcobra, Mystique and Leland the Bash-General are working as a team dealing with the Sealife. There are resting at the Vicious Rocks. Kingcobra is asleep. Darkrogue appears on scene and immediately attacks Kingcobra. The bash-general surely has a duty ensuring that play goes smoothly towards the stated goal of killing all the mobiles in the allotted time. He cannot possibly afford to lose a player like Kingcobra and must discourage PK?ing. Rightly he defends Kingcobra and Mystique also joins in. The result is inevitable. Personally I think anyone attacking one of three players who are already bonded as a team, especially players of the this calibre, is asking for a whole lot of trouble and he got it.
It was sad that after this incident Leland should fall to the snow leopard assisted by an ape. Sad yet strangely comforting that such an experienced player is still capable of error. Personally I blame Xarubbabel who should have dealt with the snow leopard after the pony and the snowbird. Though, to be fair, he did ?wh? it three times.
*You hit the snowbird (10-14).
You have killed the snowbird.
(+49 = 64,622).
The snowbird has just passed on.
*sh Byeeee
You shout "Byeeee".
*wh snowleopard
Your spell doesn't find any.
*wh snowleopard
Your spell doesn't find any.
*wh snowleopard
Your spell doesn't find any.
*rs
Ironically he benefited in no small degree from Leland?s loss:
The snow leopard looks close to death.
The snow leopard hits you (101/120).
*You hit the snow leopard (10-14).
You have killed the snow leopard.
(+2,592 = 68,525).
But for most people the big mystery will always be: How can someone get to Necro. Level without knowing where the West Fissure is, without knowing how to get back from the Classical ruin without an RS, and, strangest of all without knowing the ?wh? spell.

A very basic error, too. Here is a log for your amusement:
You reach for the wafer32, but it leaves you more exposed in your fight...
Wafer32 stolen from ape6.
*The snow leopard hits you (50/120).
You hit the snow leopard (10-14).
The snow leopard looks seriously injured.
The snow leopard hits you (40/120).
The snow leopard hits you (20/120).
dr wf f bx
*dr wf f bx
Wafer32 inserted in cardboard box0.
*The ape6 hits you (6/120).
You hit the ape6 (5-9).
The ape6 looks superficially injured.
*drink vial
You've had too much to drink already, you can't face another drop.
*The snow leopard hits you.
You feel your will snatched away...
The snow leopard has killed you.
Opened vial4 dropped.
Ring6 dropped.
Valetant dropped.
Scarab dropped.
Cardboard box0 dropped.
Not updating persona.
Option (H for help): eat a wf

Its always fun being killed by mobiles which didn't exist in the Land before they attacked you

It was warlock, and add "without being able to find a wp on their own"

You forgot to mention all the "someone give me a firestone" and "someone give me a weapon" shouts at the start of the bash from Lola.

Why would anyone who believed that PK'ing was banned during a bash want with an fs? Unless you planned to upset and flee from V of course.

I can answer my own question! It does have another obvious use if you don't know a better and easier way.

She wanted it because you can't be entirely safe in ladder shaft without protection from certain spells..

Hi Armand is it not about time you stopped all the whining like a little girl, bundling players like poor lola's who was plodding around helping you guys to bash was a bit lame.
Using two or three players to take out another ones persona is generally regarded as very cowardly, and that just about sums you up as a player, why don't you try actually playing your mage sometime rather than sitting in the tea room moaning about what you hate about the game.

Johnsmith, You are obviously an experienced player, who is familiar with the personalities and the personas of MUD.
Do you not think it detracts from what you say when you accuse another player of cowardice yet hide your identity behind an account created only on 18th April with no history of previous posts?
Come on, who are you?
