I'm not Barney Stinson
I try to play all rogue-likes by one rule - "What doesn't kill you makes you stronger. What kills you makes... your next char stronger". I write that motto on a piece of paper and put it next to me while playing te4, tome 2.x.x, theme, ADOM, and what not.
I think that I should finally add another sentence, just below that one - "You're not Barney Stinson". And I don't mean that in terms of looks, or getting it on with the ladies - there's no arguing with that - but I need to stop accepting all those g'damn challenges!
- See a blood stained track and hear screams of pain on a lvl 1 char? Challenge accepted!
- A monstrous, 10 meter high and 10 lvl higher, horror-like Rare is staring you in the eyes? Challenge accepted!
- Down to 10% life, while opponent is at 20% and I still got one spell charged? Blast'em! Challenge accepted!
That's probably why I've only once won tome 2 and that's with a swamp-scummed character. That's probably why I'm having problems with passing level 20 in te4.
I'm not Barney Stinson.

Death came quick
I was feeling quite like hey this level x of Dreadfell is so easy...
Died! Some rare killed me with three hits or so, so quickly I didn't even check out the health bar until it said something like 25?!
