Quote from ofcourse:

and huh?

At Rakanishu, he directly activates the stones and ignores the monsters (killing Rakanishu is faster anyway


All he means is that the guy with the scroll of inifus should activate the stones and let other people kill, because they can kill Raka before the stones are all active, so the guy with the scroll helping to kill wouldn't speed it up. I hope that was clear.

We saw it yesterday - we have to wait for the trist-tp, so this should be opened as fast as possible.

"nachsx" -> after segment x, use it to start segment x+1

Just a quick reminder. Don't forget to come to the meeting tomorrow... It's 1 pm (gmt-6), 2 pm (gmt-5), 7 pm (gmt), 8 pm (gmt +1).

Also my question again. Wuv/MrEnzyme are you still interested in the run??? If so, please post ANYTHING here!

If you need a good place in a2, you might want to check magoot's lair - it's a bit long and twisted, but there should be a few uniques per level easily, and some champs(it's also good even with normals, since they are high in quantity and just run at you).
No idea how it would look in players 8 though, i just made it a few times in 1-player nightmare, and I'm sure it's worth scouting. Be sure to have light res here

And also(I don't know if it was mentioned), at early stages, be sure to pick up explosion and gas potions, they are awesome considering worth/space factor(full stack take 1 box and is worth a few thousand) - just in case you need some money. Wands and necro helms(preserved head etc) are also worth much

I would love to help you guys(in case you need help) it tests, but unfortunately i have slow connection at home, so no good.
Good luck anyway!

thx thepgo. In the maggots lair, there is not enough space for us, so that's not a good area for xp. It's better to split up a bit in open areas so we can kill more monsters/time while still being in the xp-range. Regarding gas potions, you're absolutely right, I should add these to the pick-up-list. Necrostuff is already in the list.

FraGFroG, just a suggestion: Get everyone who is participating in this run (and doing tests) to download skype. With skype you can add everyone to one IM room, allowing for faster contact.

It would also be nice to see some low quality test run segments available for download to see how progress is coming on...

I highly recommend the skype option.  I use it for all my gaming nowadays, much better than any sort of in-game chat.

if your going to use skype or something like that, can someone record the chat logs and add them as commentary to the final production . that would be really interesting having live commentary, tiki did something similar for one of his mega man runs.  though not over multiple segments

I don't think it would be very useful to talk over skype whilst playing, but it would certainly help with planning or making contact, as skype flashes in your taskbar when someone leaves a message, allowing anyone on their computer to notice that you need to talk right now. The forums here on the other hand, have no notification, so even if a person is not AFK, they may take an hour or more to check in here. That's an extra hour 7 other players have to wait.

yeah, had that problem, we are using irc right now, it doesnt flash on my comp but it makes a beep sound

anyway we finally got into a new segment, and if lag hadn't gone afk we'd have done a second one, but at least we tested it some, my saves:

Sorry. My parents started watching VODs again so the network got unusable. I did type something on #diablo, guess it didn't get through.

Hi lag,

are your parents the kind of parents that you could discuss your diablo schedule with, and arrange with them that they either tell you they're going to mess up your connection beforehand, or that they agree with you not to watch vods for a while on those specific times/dates you are playing? You can explain to them that it is a big effort involving many people that requires complicated planning, and you are trying to not inconvenience the others and be a valuable contribution. That sounds like the kind of thing I'd support in my children (although they're a bit young to come up with schemes like that  Smiley )

... Sometimes it sucks living with your parents. My parents are great, but I'm glad that shit is behind me.

We're still doing trials; we're waiting until 1.13 comes out of beta to start the run, and we have a bunch of things to practice.

I'll see what I can do.

1 segment for each difficulty (at least) will be much more fun to play (i'd join if it was), and to watch (i think).

You think that sitting still and watching some players trundle through Norm without any idea of where they're going for a few hours is going to be fun?

Huh...

I can see the enjoyability of a segment-per-difficulty play-through with live commentary. However, that's a Let's Play, not a speedrun.

Since I know someone's going to say something about it - with crazy luck and enough retries, it could be speedrun worthy. However, a segment per difficulty still constitutes a segmented run, correct? So why sacrifice run quality to appease the fans of LP's on a speedrun site?
