Persistence Against Consistency
Another two weeks of daily Angband; an other level 30 Dwarf Fighter slain by a basilisk. This game will at some point cause my brain to explode. Anyhow, back to Level 1.In more happy news, I did just order a pile of games:
Thunderstone plus expansion: Yes, I'm late to the game, but I was finally persuaded by marketing.
Axis and Allies: Europe 1940: Because I've gotta catch 'em all.
Bang: Wild West Show: Because I needed more reason to de-shrink Bang: The Bullet.
Arkham: Lurker on the Threshold. Because the game is not yet large and complicated enough.
Perry Rhodan: The Cosmic League: Because I don't yet have the stones to unshrink my mint copy of Merchant of Venus.
Carson City: In celebration of finally completing Red Dead Redemption
Heroscape D2: Again, gotta catch 'em all.
Talisman: Highland: I like my expansion boards to be symmetrical, so I have at least two more to go after this.
PC Gaming: I picked up Mount and Blade: Warband off this weekend's Steam sale.
Adios for now!

I dusted off Nethack based on this, but I rarely live past 1000 steps (10 minutes or so). No exception so far.
I've never tried Nethack. Its the one where you have a pack mule, right?
My favorite "easy" rogue-like at the moment is still DoomRL.
I may give Nethack a shot after this next Angband character gets caught in the "I regret nothing" mousetrap.
No ... Knights get a horse, but otherwise you normally get a cat or dog.
Level 1 Find a scroll, may as well read it. "You have found a scroll of genocide. What species would you like to kill?" Hm, the soldier ants are usually really annoying around level 10 (since there are packs of a zillion)...
"Soldier Ants."
"Summoning soldier ants."
Brian the Orc died on level one, killed by 7 soldier ants (but really by a cursed scroll of genocide).
My next game was one of my better ones. But then I got hit with hallucinations ...
Never bring a cat to a knife fight.
In unrelated news, Netflix now comes on the Ipod Touch and IPhone. This could be the death of bathroom reading worldwide.
Yep. Got the app. Works like a charm.
