KoLMafia helps. It's a java-based platform that can automatically run adventures with parameters you set. It's not perfect, but it makes it so i can get through 4 accounts in less then an hour most of the times.

ascension plans

1. current: hardcore DB (softperm funkslinging; bank 100 karma) - try for a 6-dayer
2. softcore DB (bank 100 karma + 100 extra from discarded IK) - try for a legit 3-dayer
3. softcore P [blender] (softperm springy fusilli + transcendental noodlecraft + gnome 10% item skill + gnome 10% meat skill)

By then, the new challenge path should be just about ready to roll (it's scheduled for August 15), so I'll wait before jumping the gash.

So I screwed myself over yesterday. Was doing a 100% Black Cat run and I changed familiars for the Sorceress tower...one turn too early. So I fought my shadow with my Goat at my side instead of the Cat. Thus ****ing me over on my run with the Black Cat. I was so pissed.

Now I'm doing it again, this time as a Thief. No screw ups this time. v_v

Black Cat + Accordion Thief = Bad. The cat shrugs off my songs during combat. Nothing like getting killed because you lose the +10 Moxie you were running along with. Guess I'll just do the whole run with basically no skills. That will teach me to screw up the sorceress tower. v_v

*thinks*

Maybe I should just say screw it and do all 6 Bad Moon runs in a row. I hated doing the Hardcore run without a clover. The stupid Skeleton Key took me forever to roll an 11 or whatever it needs.

*thinks*

I've got the day to think about it.

It's official because Mr. Skullhead wrote them.

And the best class for a kittycore run is the disco bandit, but it seems you've already done that run. So I'd just go through all the runs in a row.

I wouldn't want to do all the bad moon runs in a row, because I'm way too used to all my toys, even in HC. (no reagent pasta and no slimeling = no thanks) I would probably just soldier through AT kittycore pretending that I'm a DB who can't make drinks.

Then again, I'm pretty lazy when it comes to this kind of stuff. Still need to do my TT and P bad moon runs.

Xevabis got his level 30 trophy and his nemesis trophy. So he has ascended as a seal clubber. Back to the ascension grind.

Way of the Surprising Fist is the new challenge path. Basically no main hand weapons or off-hand items can be equipped and you don't gain as much money.

I was going to jump into the new challenge path tonight, but instead I think I'll do a quick DB no-path run to perm Kung Fu Hustler. CDMoyer was selling a bunch of the Kung Fu Hustler books (Autobiography of Dynamite Superman Jones) in his shop last night for way under mall price, but I dunno if there are any left.

End of day 3 in my challenge run (hardcore), and I'm level 9. That's pretty decent considering how much time I've been spending getting all the fist techniques. I'm going to get the final technique tomorrow.

A couple of tips for the challenge path:
- Every day, you can go to the Cobb's Knob treasury in the harem girl outfit to get 500 meat.
- If you're doing softcore, be sure to stock Hagnk's with an oven + cocktailcrafting kit so you don't have to buy them in-run.

I'm worried I might get to a point I can't do things because I'm going faster then ever on this run. I already doing the level 11 quest and i still have around 200 adventures to go in ronin.

Nice.

Also, I sold 1000 twinkly wads today, and I also bought 30 of the boxes. People are saying they may be optimal for softcore, so they seem like a good investment.

Bad Moon is pretty fun when you get used to it. I'm doing a TT BM ascension and enjoying it more than any of my last few ascensions. Managed to get day 4 liver with ~30 turns to spare for farming limes.

More upcoming ascension plans, not really in order.

- AT softcore: To perm Inigo's so that I can quit having to pull a bartender and a chef.

- PM bad moon: Once I get finished with my current run, this will be the last class I need for my BM loop. Going to use Feast of Boris to make it a bit easier. I want FoB to fall on day 6 of the ascension. Reason: By then, I should have Liver of Steel, so I'll have more adventures and will get more FoB food. (In a "regular" BM ascension you're supposed to get liver on day 4, but I'm pretty bad at myst so I figure I'd better give it an extra day.)

- DB bad moon: Everybody does kittycore as a DB, and frequently as their first BM ascension. That means the DB BM leaderboard is really soft. I want a leaderboard spot on my main. >_>
