================================================== Brownman - Juggernaut Disciple of Miles Davis [Avatar Monk] ascends to 200% in Gateway (www.GatewayMud.com) ================================================== My character creation date was in 1998 and for many many years I've watched in awe as a select few of Gateway's greatest ascended to the coveted 200% position, enduring much hardship, challenges and a massive number of deaths along the way, to finally be listed on the Golden Scroll in the Chaomonous Adventurer's Guild (in the realm of Underground) where only 9 names are engraved there as the permanent record of those to reach 200% in all Gateway history, with Cecil being the last in 2012, and Beren in 2006 before him. In other words: it's not easy, and not done often. For many months I had been on a slow, hard run up to 200% (which means all-Callis-Dragons, all-the-time!). My goal was to get to the end of 199% by the morning of Dec 2nd, 2020 -- my birfday -- and then at 6:00pm EST, log in and do the final push to get me across the finish line. I announced that this was happening in the Facebook group and sent a email to those I know personally, in the hopes that a few regs might drop in and cheer me on. What happened that day far exceeded my expectations and left me with one of the best birthday events ever. Below are excepts from my log of all that happened from about 5:30pm EST onward. - Brownman ================================================== This tale beings with myself and Patrick, whose penchant for suiciding and restarting as a newbie is somewhat legendary in Gateway lore, wondering if his newly created Patrick (Pat-10 I call him) was even allowed onto Dragon Island where my final run to 200% would begin. ================================================== > look Patrick the wandering adventurer (neutral). Patrick waves. You hug Patrick. You smile, nod your head, and fistbump Patrick. Patrick says: Not sure if I'm allowed to go to dragon island. You say: Really? they block newbies? You got 30 minutes, get Pat-10 to 100%... if anyone can do it, it's you! :) Patrick says: I'll go find out. Patrick strides east. Patrick strides in from the east. Patrick says: I can go there. You say: That's awesome! Wouldn't be right if you couldn't be there homes. Patrick says: I'll be taking a quick shower. You send a magical nod to Patrick. You say: I gotta do some stuff too ================================================== For Anyone reading this who's not a Gateway player: [Gossip] denotes chatter on the Gossip Channel -- a popular mode of realm-wide communication (ie - every player online sees what gets typed on the Gossip channel). ================================================== [Gossip] Brownman: I'm AFK for a bit boys -- back soon [Gossip] Geleb: 10-4.

Lemme do some introductions! [Gossip] Brownman: So Claudius and I did our physics degrees together at the University of Waterloo, where Gateway almost made us fail out... along with Ironfist... so the 3 of us are all UofW fools... we met Kynnar in the 90's in here, but got to know him in RL and is a dude... Quex and Cecil are Gateway legends, and I'm honored they're here... Breelyn's my RL wife, Chiton's Ironfist's RL wife, Stilgar is actually the wizard Slimblade's alt, Geleb is another old close friend, who I introduced GW to (and his brother!) a few months ago and got him hooked, Darkman's the iconic Gatekeeper we all know and love, Amalia's his partner... and Patrick... well... Pat's the suicide king (and one of the most knowledgeable Gateway'ers ever. [Gossip] Brownman: But here's the real question -- WHERE THE HELL IS TRISTAN! This ascension won't be the same without him!! [Gossip] Brownman: I saw him liking my posts in FB... [Gossip] Brownman: I always worry about him cuz of he (IRL) has a heart condition thing, and lives alone. [Gossip] Brownman: When I don't hear from him for a while, I get nervous... yano? Cuz I imagine he'd wanna be here for this. [Gossip] Claudius: Hope he's ok. [Gossip] Kynnar: *listening to The Smiths - The Queen is Dead* [Gossip] Ironfist: Nice touch, 80's/90's music would set the mood. [Gossip] Kynnar: He he!.. :) [Gossip] Brownman: Yo Claud -- Bree's at the Callis church and lost... [Gossip] Brownman: Can you go get her? [Gossip] Claudius: Ok - on it! [Gossip] Geleb: I was late to GW but started on NannyMud in the early 90's. [Gossip] Brownman: But you agreed Gateway is a far superior product right? RIGHT? *cough* You send a magical grin to Geleb. > look [Home of Time] You stand at the end of the path. You look around you, and yet the room does not really seem to exist. There are no true walls, but merely fluctuations in the power field around you. Colours mesh together and evil and goodness flow around each other. Sitting in the middle of it all is the home of the time dragon. Looking upon this edifice, you cannot even begin to comprehend, much less describe what the dragon is sitting on. Awe and fear fill you, and you prudently start to edge back the way you came. There is one obvious exit: west. Patrick the wandering adventurer (neutral). A Godlike Dragon Holding up the Arch of Time. Patrick tips his hat. You wave. > look at dragon A Godlike Dragon Holding up the Arch of Time. You should make peace with your Gods! You have stumbled upon the mightiest of the dragon host! Chronos Dracos! The Time Dragon! Towering above you like a mountain, this is not a mere monster! This is a force of nature itself! Using its powers arcane, it holds aloft the arch of time, that the world will not succumb to the Apocalypse, the end of time. Many times has this beast been assaulted, but all have fallen to its devastating counter-attack. Slashing claws, sharper than any sword capable of eviscerating even the most well armored of foolhardy mortals. Also beware its maw! Filled with glistening white teeth, harder than diamond, capable of rending even the very fabric of the world itself. Its ridged tail, faster than the wind, capable of slashing its foes into bloody strips of meat! This dragon is in perfect shape. [Gossip] Brownman: this Time Dragon is so scary -- those new to this room, make sure you read the description and shit your pants accordingly. He's an apex predator and not to be trifled with. [Gossip] Ironfist: Is this Golden Scroll working? There's no entries on it since 2012. [Gossip] Brownman: That's the last time anyone hit 200% homes! [Gossip] Ironfist: Damn. This will be a momentous occassion! [Gossip] Brownman: Word! Exactly! [Gossip] Kynnar: Wow!.. :) very cool [Gossip] Brownman: And the last dude to do it -- is right here! Cecil! [Gossip] Quex: No Breds on this scroll? [Gossip] Quex: Hrmmm [Gossip] Claudius: where are you bm? [Gossip] Brownman: At the Time Dragon Your eyes water for a moment, and you blink quickly. [Gossip] Brownman: I'm here with Patrick [Gossip] Geleb: how do I get there? [Gossip] Brownman: Hey Dark -- wanna transpo everyone in? Stilgar arrives from the west. Stilgar bows suavely. Claudius arrives from the west. Breelyn strides in from the west. [Gossip] Brownman: Ohhh... getting busy in here! Claudius explodes messily. Breelyn claps. [Gossip] Darkman: amalia was just logging in Claudius knees Time dragon in the groin! Time dragon collapses to the ground, moaning in agony. Claudius says: not so tough You laugh out loud. Claudius slaps Time dragon silly. Darkman blazes forth from a blinding pillar of flame. You wave. You bow to Darkman. Claudius smiles, nods his head, and fistbumps Darkman. Geleb arrives in a puff of smoke. Claudius gives a mighty high-five to Geleb. Kynnar arrives in a puff of smoke. You let out a resounding cheer. Geleb flips heels over head. Kynnar jumps. You say: Ok - this really is the best... DM teleporting everyone in? Dope. Kynnar smiles. Ironfist arrives in a puff of smoke. -> Claudius starts handing out drinks. Kynnar laughs. Geleb dances to a tune you can't hear. Amalia arrives in a puff of smoke. Claudius gives a mighty high-five to Ironfist. [Gossip] Ironfist: Sweet Claudius does a little soft-shoe tap-dance number. Geleb laughs. [Gossip] Kynnar: Ha ha so awesome! Geleb cries. Amalia says: weeha [Gossip] Kynnar: Thanks Darkman! Quex arrives in a puff of smoke. Quex lets out a resounding cheer. Chiton arrives in a puff of smoke. Claudius smiles, nods his head, and fistbumps Darkman. -> Claudius hovers serenely a few feet off the ground. Kynnar says: So awesome!.. :) Darkman tips his hat. Geleb bows to Breelyn. Ironfist gives Chiton a mighty high five! Darkman says: Cecil's inactive Kynnar bows suavely. Geleb kicks you. Damn, that hurts! Amalia runs around in a banana suit screaming, "Peel me! Peel me!" Quex peels Amalia like a banana! Quex says: Delightful. Darkman peels Amalia like a banana! Claudius peels Amalia like a banana! You peel Amalia like a banana! Kynnar laughs. You say: I feel so dirty. Amalia laughs You hug Amalia. Amalia says: oh, it has been *far* too long since I was last on :) Kynnar says: Yeah same here!.. :) Quex foops. Geleb says: can I take a swing at this dragon. Call it a sacrifice on Brown's b-day. :) Geleb swings his broadsword in a wide arc in preparation for the upcoming battle. Geleb says: Wait - just read his descripton. Damn? "Make peace with the Gods"? Brownman says: Time Dragon Birfday sacrifice - yes! -> Brownman pushes Geleb into Time Dragon -> Claudius hovers serenely a few feet off the ground. ================================================== But before I got started I had a couple of things I really wanted to say to this rare and wonderous group of Adventurers... nay, Avengers! ================================================== [Gossip] Brownman: Ok ok ok -- I gotta few things to say! Claudius listens to you. Kynnar listens to you. Quex nods. [Gossip] Brownman: First -- thank you all sincerely for being here.... [Gossip] Brownman: I'm seriously moved to see so many of you OGs on.... [Gossip] Brownman: Legends like Quex and Cecil here mean a lot.... [Gossip] Quex blushes. [Gossip] Brownman: I watched you dudes when I was a newb and you guys were inspirations. [Gossip] Brownman: The last cat to hit 200% is with us here -- Cecil... and I'm honored beyond belief to be the next dude. [Gossip] Brownman: A lotta you fu&$&ers I know in real life, and count as life long friends. [Gossip] Brownman: And the rest of you ugly bastards - I hope to. [Gossip] Brownman: Thank you again, all. Happy birfday to me! [Gossip] Brownman: Let do this! Kynnar grins happily. Claudius raises an eyebrow. Darkman grins evilly. Claudius gives you a mighty high-five! Darkman goes: Woo woo! Kynnar lets out a resounding cheer. [Gossip] Amalia: woohoo! Claudius kicks Time dragon. [Gossip] Ironfist: happy birfday! [Gossip] Quex: huzzaaah! Quex laughs out loud. Kynnar gives you a mighty high five! Claudius pokes Time dragon in the ribcage. Claudius says: he's about done Amalia gives you a mighty high five! Geleb swings his broadsword in a wide arc in preparation for the upcoming battle. Darkman licks Time dragon. Darkman says: needs salt Time dragon screams in pain and hops up and down on one foot! You notice a trail of smoke coming from its foot. Time dragon snarls angrilly! Quex whistles innocently. Darkman goes: Heh! Amalia says: put some steak spice on it ================================================== Now this is funny : I thought Cecil (the last guy to hit 200% in 2012) has been there in the room with us all along... but he had actually been Linkdead and was only NOW coming back online... ================================================== [Gossip] Cecil: Sorry, I was AFK -- BM, you make it? Did I miss it? [Gossip] Cecil: where is everyone? Cecil arrives in a puff of smoke. Cecil gives you a mighty high-five! Quex gasps in astonishment! [Gossip] Quex: classic [Gossip] Brownman: *looks at watch* *looks at Cecil* *sighs* [Gossip] Brownman: hahahahaha :) Cecil says: Sorry I was late, Knights are stupid. Patrick says: The late knights. :) Darkman says: just in time :) Claudius bows to Cecil. Amalia says: a knight is never late... a knight always arrives exactly when they mean to. Kynnar says: Ha ha well said, Amalia!.. ;) Claudius bounces Cecil around. Geleb bows to Cecil. Claudius does a little soft-shoe tap-dance number. Cecil bows suavely. [Gossip] Brownman: I thought Cecil was here the whole time [Gossip] Brownman: So lemme start my speech again... [Gossip] Brownman: I was born on the small Carribean island of Trinidad... Claudius laughs outloud. Quex giggles. Ironfist facepalms Geleb rolls his eyes. [Gossip] Brownman: *grin* [Gossip] Brownman: Jokes... I won't start again. [Gossip] Brownman: But lemme just say this -- Cecil -- you were the last 200% -- it's an honor you're (finally) here brother! [Gossip] Quex: When are we gonna get to the fireworks factory?! [Gossip] Ironfist: yeah. We need some party poppers [Gossip] Claudius: the time dragon must be wondering wtf is going on [Gossip] Brownman: Um -- Dark... [Gossip] Brownman: I have a favour to ask [Gossip] Brownman: If 1 Time Dragon doesn't do it... [Gossip] Brownman: Could you re-spawn him? [Gossip] Brownman: So we can all just stay here? [Gossip] Brownman: Otherwise we gotta move this whole clown car to other Dragony rooms... [Gossip] Quex: haha [Gossip] Darkman: yeah, I can just bounce the room [Gossip] Brownman: Nice! Claudius bounces around. [Gossip] Darkman: or clone an army of go players Claudius tips his hat to Darkman. [Gossip] Kynnar: Awesome!.. :) Claudius scratches Time dragon on its back. [Gossip] Brownman: FYI: I fight from outside the room. [Gossip] Brownman: So you guys stay here... I'll be running in and out, dumping magic attacks and leaving. I do NOT like standing in the room with this creature, yano? Patrick says: Also teach time dragon Tiamats' special attack? XD Darkman produces Frobozz Instant Party in a Can from a sudden fireflash. Suddenly, Quex makes a sound like popcorn exploding!
