Let's start a pool on room number for the TPK.

I predict room 5.

I did some math based on last year's modules and before the increase in difficulty I don't think we were going to make it to room 5.

The interesting thing about the Green with Envy run is it will take much more strategy than your average dungeon run. But we'll also burn a lot of consumables. Based on last year's modules, at least one of the monsters I would have had to be burning the +1 Bolts on every shot to hit only on a 19/20.

I'm sure you'll be buried under all that extra work. Still, genealogy is a branch of research which leaves you a little time to don your trunks and enjoy the (gene) pool, if you don't accidentally go barking up the wrong tree.

But next year--I'll start saving my pennies now. I'll try to start working on the double dog dare--who can deny a shiba inu and corgi?

Well, by next year it will be a TRIPLE dog dare, so we will have to throw an Alaskan malamute into the mix!

Could we add the nightmare enhanced to what we already have (ie - normal, hardcore, nightmare, nightmare enhanced)?
This would be similar to the epic level that was established at WYC for Grind.

I take some pause seeing this announcement after ticket purchases have already occurred and group organization has already started.

Players have asking for awhile. Having 4 levels is extra work for our volunteers.

Although I wouldn't mind Epic, if it is more work for the TD team and volunteers then I'm fine with this change.

I don't think it is a big deal to change it now, tickets were just sold. It is definitely easy to just play at Hardcore if somebody is worried, or return or resell the tickets.

yes only solo nightmare survivor(maybe next year I will do the enhanced)...i think I am one of few(if not only person )killed before even going to coaching room by Lori (more than once)

Why? You pick the difficulty at the start of the event, not when you order the tickets. If you think Nightmare will be too difficult for your group now, that it is harder, then stick to Hardcore.

I like the idea of scaling up nightmare, love you Laz but solo nightmare really shouldn't be possible IMO.

That said I'm against adding a forth difficulty (outside of grind) as it would open the reward/xp level/people feeling compelled to run difficulties their not equipped for debate again.

There is a story here I'd love to know.

Killed before the coaching room ?

Is this a killer breakfast thing ?
