This thread needs theme music.

Ladies and Gentlemen, the Beatles

Cry baby cry
Make your mother sigh
She's old enough to know better.

The king of Marigold was in the kitchen
Cooking breakfast for the queen
The queen was in the parlour
Playing piano for the children of the king.

Cry baby cry
Make your mother sigh
She's old enough to know better
So cry baby cry.

The king was in the garden
Picking flowers for a friend who came to play
The queen was in the playroom
Painting pictures for the childrens holiday.

Cry baby cry
Make your mother sigh
She's old enough to know better
So cry baby cry.

The duchess of Kircaldy always smiling
And arriving late for tea
The duke was having problems
With a message at the local bird and bee.

Cry baby cry
Make your mother sigh
She's old enough to know better
So cry baby cry.

At twelve o'clock a meeting round the table
For a seance in the dark
With voices out of nowhere
Put on specially by the children for a lark.

Cry baby cry
Make your mother sigh
She's old enough to know better
So cry baby cry cry cry cry baby
Make your mother sigh.

She's old enough to know better
Cry baby cry
cry cry cry
Make your mother sigh
She's old enough to know better
So cry baby cry.

Can you take me back where I came from?
Can you take me back?
Can you take me back where I came from?
Rowboat can you take me back?
Can you take me back?
Oooh, can you take me where I came from?
Can you take me back?

Well..My thoughts and ideas fit pretty well..

Shadowkid spoke of Unique items, and I've been using my armor, and tried my other sword, and it didn't go so hot..My resistance doesn't kick, like it does with everyone else, and my other blade did the same as my Shogunate..So, this is out..

Someone spoke of borgs, which is possible, but I didn't see TheGibson borging up like the rest of your organization, along with a few others, and Strt doesn't have borgs..So, that's out..

I've jumped down from my normal encumbrance of .18 or so to .04 - .05, and it didn't work well..Jumped all the way up to .78, and that didn't change anything..I did this in thought of strt, who has a rather high encumbrance..

Tried with less energy, and it worked for a while..But then it stopped me dead in my tracks..Tried lowering my happiness, and it didn't work..Always did it at full health, and I got half in half on my fights, which is a little better than not at all, when someone else can fight 3 in a row, back to back, and not die from the ghouls..

So..My theory's sounding very plausible..Unproven, but plausible..

Maybe they are carrying a lucky charm...like a rabbit foot or 4 leaf clover or something. Its the only explanation.

Just so people know what my hypothesis is..

Notice the two lower levels in the top 10 that didn't suffer a loss..

They have smaller stats, meaning less damage..Lesser armors and weaponry..More randomness of hits and misses, along with less criticals..

Take into account..Me, for example..282nd place in the contest..Higher level..Bigger stats, so the miss and hit rates are defined..Criticals are more obvious, along with the defenses..It's harder for the big guys to beat big guys..While the little guys are easily able to beat little guys..

This is my hypothesis..


As for the lucky charms, Satan's minions(The Boogey Man, Werewolves, X Pats[Calm down. I'm joking]) take any sort of harmful or lucky charms from a person before he comes to vanquish them. So, no go, Debbie.

Some people are like slinkies they are really good for nothing but still bring a smile to your face when you push them down a flight of stairs.

There's no way you would have won without a weapon, either, but we won't hold it to ya..

That second fight..Well..All I can say is that ghoul stuck your own head up your bum for you, bum rushed you out the bar, and took a dump on your chest all in the same instant..I'm glad my ghouls weren't that fast..

but zen said it's like fightinhg yourself
and it's random
but how come he hits over 100 and i barely do 1
if they addapt to the weapons you use than i should probably end in stalemate
