Late Night Forum with Vidmaster7

[gran rey de los mono]

Ascension 20 beat with Watcher. Somehow. The two final boss fights were the Time Snail followed by Deca & Donu. That was rough.

[Vidmaster7]

IDK how you did it.

[gran rey de los mono]

Deck:
Alpha+
Establishment+
3x Like Water+
Pressure Points+
Protect+
Protect
3x Defend+
Defend
Vigilance+
Doubt (curse)
Ascender's Bane (curse)

Relics:
Holy Water (start with 3 Miracles instead of 1)
Art of War (+1 energy if played no attacks last turn)
War Paint (upgrade 2 random skills)
Clockwork Souvenir (start with 1 Artifact)
Oddly Smooth Stone (+1 Dexterity)
Dream Catcher (can add a card when you rest)
Bag of Marbles (all enemies start with 1 Vulnerable)
Busted Crown (+1 energy per turn, 2 fewer cards to choose from as rewards)
Maw Bank (gain 12 gold per room)

Tactics:
Play Vigilance to get Calm. Get all 3 Like Waters in play to get 21 free Block a turn. Stay alive until Omega is played. Stay alive while Omega does all the hard work. Use Pressure Points to help if you can do so without taking damage. Also, had a Dexterity Potion that I used for Deca & Donu fight. Probably would have died if not for that.

The first couple of turns can be stressful, but after that it's basically a waiting game.

[Vidmaster7]

I like that pressure point/omega build. Very defensive feels kind of Tai chi ish.

We got the medicine for burrito. he is already acting better. He still sniffling a bit but less and he is actually back to begging for food. before he was just hiding in the bottom of the cage. we were feeding him baby food but now he wants solid stuff and yogis.

If your rat does not want yogis anymore you know its bad.

[Vidmaster7]

They also like cheerios. some of them are picky about dried fruit. Almonds are popular but Yogi's are their favorite by far.

[gran rey de los mono]

Why are you feeding a bear to a rat?

[Vidmaster7]

He only thought he was smarter then the average bear.

[gran rey de los mono]

All he wanted was some pic-a-nic baskets, and you brutally murdered him to make treats for rats. You sick bastard.

[Vidmaster7]

I regret nothing! Should of kept his paws off my pic-a-nic basket.

Because they are surprisingly delicious.

[Vidmaster7]

Vid is back. back again. vid is back. tell a friend.

[gran rey de los mono]

You were gone?

[mildly annoyed Vidmaster7]

3 day weekend -_-

[gran rey de los mono]

Oh.

[Vidmaster7]

Oh i tried to put together that build you beat watcher with. I couldn't get my defenses good enough to make it work I did still make it to the third boss tho.

[gran rey de los mono]

As with everything, luck is important.

[Vidmaster7]

Yeah the relics you got worked better for what you were doing.

[Vidmaster7]

I don't want to say it because I might jinx it so waiting till morning.

[Vidmaster7]

*looks around cautiously*.
Quiet night. especially for a Saturday.

[gran rey de los mono]

We're actually busier than we've been in a while. That's still only 30%, but more than we've had in a while. Thankfully, no one is up and about.

[State of confusion]

I just had a guy complain about a alarm going off in a adjacent room but their is no one in any of the adjacent rooms...

[gran rey de los mono]

Sometimes people set the alarm to go off late at night/early in the morning before they checkout. They think it's a "funny prank". I'm surprised you've never had this happen before.

I know every place I've worked the housekeepers are supposed to check the alarm, but it still happens occasionally. Maybe your housekeepers are just very diligent.

[Vidmaster7]

We don't have an alarm system like that. Ours is keyed into the phones and then reset when the room is checked out automatically.

[gran rey de los mono]

No alarm clocks in the room? Because that's what I meant by alarm, a clock.

[Vidmaster7]

Yelp no alarm clocks. the phone is set up to do wake up calls.

[gran rey de los mono]

We do wake up calls, too. But no alarm clock just seems weird to me. I'm all for it, though. One less way for people to screw with each other is always a positive.

[Vidmaster7]

Only thing that bugs me is their is a little light on the phone that looks like it is always on and its the message light. I always get calls asking about messages every single morning.

[gran rey de los mono]

Every hotel I have worked at had the message light on the phones, and yet I have never seen it used.

[Vidmaster7]

we don't use it either but it still pops on by itself. Some flaw in our phone system. really annoying.

[gran rey de los mono]

I guess if you're ever annoyed with first shift, you could turn on a couple of them just before you leave and let them deal with it.

[Vidmaster7]

... that might be a thing i do when they show up late. "oh time for me to leave well time to put in messages untill they get here. "

[gran rey de los mono]

It is a risk, though. If they are too late, you may have to handle some of the calls. I was thinking, you see first shift's car pull in the lot, then you start putting on message lights.

[gran rey de los mono]

And if you know there is a guest who is an a++*%+~, you put their light on as first shift gets to the desk.

[Vidmaster7]

Hmm sounds High risk low reward.

[gran rey de los mono]

Sometimes you just gotta do it. Like tonight, the manager worked 2nd shift and, as usual, didn't touch the laundry. So I put a note in the book that said "2nd shift didn't do the laundry". Nothing will come of it, but I felt slightly better for it.

[Vidmaster7]

Whew just got done applying to 12 different jobs. we will see if anything comes out of it.

[gran rey de los mono]

NO! YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO ESCAPE THE NIGHT AUDIT'S GRASP!!

ONE OF US!! ONE OF US!!!

[In character Vidmaster7]

I will escape or burn this place to the ground!!!!!

[Mr. Grinch]

I'll help out with it.

*Brandishes a flamethrower.*

[Fazgyn the Trap Master]

Oh yes. Burn it.

[Grabthar, Inventor of Fire]

Grabthar plans to sue you for infringement. Just as soon as someone invents lawyers.

[gran rey de los en fuego]

I invented them. And then burned them all.

[Slomo Nooooo]

Nooooooooooooo!

[Vidmaster7]

Good friends are the ones that support your decisions. If your decision is to burn something all pyromaniacs are your friends.

[Vidmaster7]

Finally beat ironclad 16
2 metalisive bulwark a ton of artifacts like across the screen due to black star and that was mostly it. just defended till I win-ed it.

[gran rey de los mono]

Bulwark?

[Vidmaster7]

Oh barricade. whoops. At least those are Basically the same thing

[gran rey de los mono]

Ah. Yeah, I love Barricade. Especially with Entrench and Body Slam. All preferably upgraded.

[Vidmaster7]

Man I was looking for both those the entire run through and just never got them and still somehow won. I think the fact that I had so many armor relics is what really did it plus the thorns relic.
