An apology.
I'm *REALLY* sorry about this, Darkwind, in hindsight it's
absolutely clear, but seems I'm too newbie to notice it
during gameplay. :( Sorry man.

//Okay, 20/20 hindsight is always easy. When I first read my buffer, I noticed right away, that
Darkwind was a sitting duck here. He only fled 2 rooms, and no commands went through after that 
laughing bit. So he was either frozen, linkdead, or linkless. I used to read these logs and think,
that how come this moron doesn't notice that his opponent is linkless, but when this happened, I had
absolutely no idea. Our leader was also heavily lagged, so I wasn't paying too much attention on what
he was doing, I was just spamming kill *man*/bash *man*, like a good clueless follower should, and 
didn't notice Darkwind was linkdead/frozen.
He also didn't have eq to speak of.

I'm really sorry for this Darkwind, but I only noticed this afterwards...

And for you critics out there, yes I *should* have noticed it, but I didn't.
I guess I'm just too inexperienced in pk to notice these things in the 3 seconds it takes to kill
someone. :(

I wouldn't have posted this, but my consience kept bothering me, I just *had* to apologize to Darkwind.

darkwind had no moves is what it looks like to me. It's all to common these days. Hell if he was linkless I wouldn't have noticed either after all those failed flees. scouts just plain suck right now is all there is to this.
Fredde2001-12-01 06:59:45
men jens! pfft
Darkwind2001-12-01 10:24:00
freeze was the thing!, looks kinda fun how I fail those flees with dex 19 wil 15 =), no harm done! I had no eq anyways
A small leech2001-12-01 12:10:15
I counted 11 failed flees there. *shiver*
Gimilzor2001-12-01 12:25:57
Tummatuuli means linkdead?
Denubis2001-12-01 12:32:56
Tummatuuli=Darkwind in finnish.
Edvard2001-12-01 13:07:01
uhh.. looked moveless AND LD to me... nice failing of flees
Darkwind2001-12-01 13:21:51
I was moveless first time I ran by them, then bobbed to 90 moves or so and tried to fight, lost link etc!
Talo2001-12-01 14:37:15
When I saw all the failed flees at the time, I thought you must be low on moves. But then I thought, that why come back to fight if you're low on moves.
So it must have been bad luck. But seeing that you only fled 2 rooms made me feel bad, especially since you retired right after. But good that you don't feel bad..:)
Jocke2001-12-01 17:16:55
You shouldn't feel bad that you killed him in this situation even though he was actually ld here because it looks very much like he is exhausted. I would say it's impossible to tell from the log that it's the link that kills him not the moves. Accidents happens. Saying you are sorry in this way is very nice howver.
Rogon2001-12-01 21:15:44
I don't see the part where he's linkless. He walks around, runs out of moves, dies, nothing to apologize for.
