mmh, not bad. YASDs are always entertaining.
There are too many @s in panel 5, if you ask me. Perhaps it's obvious from the context which one is Dudley, but for some reason, at first I thought he was the one in the lower left and I was wondering why the & wasn't next to him. I had to sit back and think about it a while before I realized that Dudley logically had to be in the middle of the crowd. Maybe I'm just stupid. |

in #3- I don't get it. Do giants not recognize ?
otherwise, E for excellency! YASDS pwn when they aren't happening to me :p
lol, my question was 'what character represents a corridor, or iron bars, or a , or possibly a kitchen sink (if your dungeon has sinks), or a drawbridge'- lol |

I guess that's another of those "obvious from the context" things - it took me a minute to get it too. |

My early impressions of the astral plane that it was indeed a bit confusing how many @s there . |

Nice comic though. Oddly, I've never died in any of those ways... |

In my opinion, YASD's are the funniest topic relating to nethack. Personally, i thought this was a very good idea and it was executed well. |

Which is why it's a YASD. Evidently this has had a brain fart and forgot not to zap with . (Or else just didn't know any better... in which case it's not so much a YASD. Ignorance != stupidity, especially in Nethack.) |

Heheh, most not so stupid as throwing a at an encroaching while levitating and badly injured, only to recoil into a wall and lose those last two hp. |

I don't know, #4 (panel 3) is pretty damn stupid. Like, Peter Griffin stupid. Admittedly, that was probably just trying to kill the soldiers and died by not thinking, but I'd still most likely have put that one as #2.
I've actually done #1, come to think of it. As mind-bendingly stupid as that seems, it was because when you're wearing an AoLS you get overconfident and are rather likely to lose it before you really need it. But then, you knew that, I guess. |
