Hehe thanks!

Nice work spearv, NW AND CoA...

[spearv]

More than 700 runs today, I got in sight of level 90 and just couldn't stop myself.

It is still raining helms, particularly coronas here in NE England, another COA (not a great roll) and a Giant Skull (2os). Started seeing some weapons too... a couple of Doombringers, a Windforce to mention a few. And on my very last run, a 20 life / 10 cr small charm. Not a rune worth mentioning in all my runs, though.

Shouldn't be much trouble to finish up my runs tomorrow.

Urgh. Suffered an annoying double death on one of my runs. Ducked down the stairs to try and get the moron to fight Pindle instead of his garden gnomes. Got OHKed when I came back up, then got killed by the garden gnomes trying to retrieve my body. Lost about 9 million experience. Not happy.

What made me happy was finding a green Corona. Also found a pair of non-counting Soul Drainers while retrieving my bodies.

Added to the table, and ive begun!

After 60 runs i attained 3 sets, 2 uniques, 3 jewels, handful of flawless gems.
Pindeh seems to love giving me boots belts and gloves, all pathetic rares for the most part, highest rune an eth and best item so far is mavinas gloves. Also had some rare rings and amulets but all rubbish.

Big thanks to Jason Maher for making this possible though!

Using najs stick on switch for tele to entrance then switch back to homunculus and ali baba for the kill, runs including muling and town and selling ID'ing etc take 1 min. 60 runs in 60 mins exactly!

Using pen and paper to record runs... OLDSKOOL

[spearv]

I'm not having nearly the luck spearv is having.

This is the first tournament of any type in which I've participated in the SPF, for the time being I'm going to assume that I'll always find multiple COAs per 2000 runs, and that everyone does :-p (despite the fact I've found just 3 in total, since 2004). Anyway, I finished up my runs, Griswalds caddy and Nats mark in successive runs towards the end felt like a fittingly lucky way to close things out.

Average run was 17.941s (as mentioned several times before /p1, no hork, no shouts)

Using pen and paper to record runs... OLDSKOOL

I couldn't concieve of that, which is why I downloaded one of the run counters and made sure it worked before adding myself into this Pindlethon. In the dim and distant past I kept records of 1000 countess runs and a few others odds and ends... never again!

Is there anything I need to know about the items I submit as my best finds, or do I just pick five that I care to?

A few more runs today and yesterday, will be absent for about 36 hours over the weekend though so Pindle gets a spell from me.

Drops are ..... Not good. Not even a close to decent rare, low range uniques mostly.

Did get one TC87 though.

@ spearv - Nice drops, CoA especially, and a nice charm there. My runes are too, a Shael is my best so far. As for which 5, yeah, any 5 that you care to submit. I will probably vote on which lot of items I wish I had found.

@ Jason - I really hate it when Pindle's death explosion kills me, it means I have to go back and have a look what he dropped, which in turn can and has lead to another death. And that Tiara, nice one.

@ RobbyD - I like Taebaek's Glory, it looks so different. And that 5os longbow, no level req, useful.

@ Twibz - OldSkool I like it. Good to see a Necro in the 'thon. I used one of them running pindle for a while, and minute runs are decent.
