Here are my two such contributions:
You hit the orange orc. Jamband announcement. But this doesn't hold a candle to Rocketband, which is an actual variant released on April 1st:l, 2016. http://angband.oook.cz/forum/showthr...ght=Rocketband |

Some highlights from the angband.live chat... (lightly edited with spelling fixes and removal of unrelated messages)
-- Holy_Rage: I must stop playing FA-related games! Holy_Rage: I just had a client on the phone, Mr. Cristobal Holy_Rage: and I called him Mr. Orcobal! Holy_Rage: *facepalm* Quirk: As long as you didn't try to kill him I think friendly relations can be restored -- bostock: Somehow mistook the Cloning Pits for my house Gorbad: I was wondering about that yes bostock: walked out of there before you could say < Y Gorbad: first I thought 'you're going to die' bostock: Hope I'm not missing out on too much by failing the quest Gorbad: well... the good news is... you will encounter all those uniques anyway rodent: you survived the Cloning Pits when Gwarl did not, that gives you bragging rights bostock: To have been a fly on the wall in that scene bostock: Blue Mage goes back to town, nips a flask of cognac from a townsperson bostock: chugs it down bostock: blunders into the Cloning Pits bostock: "Hey, THIS isn't my house!" bostock: checks out -- Gwarl: don't yell at me Gwarl: I'm going to spend some time restructuring my dev environment Gwarl: (cleaning my room) -- Gwarl: wow Gwarl: you have fifteen cats! Gwarl: how did this come to be? MITZE: We don't fix our cats until it's too late MITZE: also we attract strays MITZE: or are given them Gwarl: yeah but Gwarl: most people draw a line at some point Gwarl: clearly you don't Gwarl: that's admirable -- LogicalImp: where are you hunting Gwarl? kh: Generally I hunt Gwarl in the angband.live chat LogicalImp: rofl MITZE: He is quite commonly found there kh: he seems to have a fairly high spawn rate there yes MITZE: except when something needs fixed kh: yes then he moons you and teleports away of course -- Holy_Rage: Fundin, son of Financin, famous Dwarven banker. You are the pride of your family. You have mortgaged half of the starting town's shops. You have a large nose, dark hair and a large moneypouch. -- Holy_Rage: I am sure your Sergeant will find the Halls of Mandos awaiting for him with honour and reprieve from his ordeal. LogicalImp: Aye, I'm sure he will. I know he was a very avid WoW player, but we all end up there some day. Holy_Rage: Imagine if we meet all the @s we have sent there... Holy_Rage: Awaiting to mob us! LogicalImp: If we did I would feel sorry for Hugo -- Holy_Rage: Feeling solid Holy_Rage: Though in honour of my -very- patient mentor, rodent, i won't battle Morgoth if he is not around. Provided that I reach that stage. kh: very hard to battle Morgoth if he is not around -- kh: to be fair there are a lot of good ways to enjoy pain kh: like playing angband, or spicy food, or practicing bdsm, or raising kids -- Holy_Rage: 5th death on DL1 in a row Holy_Rage: wow. Holy_Rage: playing real bad I think rodent: it sometimes happens that when you start dying you keep dying wobbly: short of medical aid that is usually true -- roushguy: ... wow roushguy: I have no idea what *band to play. Gwarl: what are you into LogicalImp: That's the joy of it! Play them all! Gwarl: (nobody has played them all. possibly clouded has) roushguy: I don't even know. Gwarl: there are different dimensions. tightly focused, or large and expansive? Gwarl: consistent lore, or kitchen sink? roushguy: uh rodent: (you will answer five or six questions, and at the end Gwarl will recommend that you play Oangband, even though no one else plays it) -- Gwarl: I'm fighting the urge to depressionpost everywhere. I could probably get away with it as captain of this ship but this is such a nice place. I don't want to ruin it LogicalImp: Gwarl, we are all here for you! Gwarl: yes and I want to keep it that way lol -- Quirk: who sets up their anvil next to the Brambles of Confusion? Quirk: even orcs aren't that dumb Flyingpants: well i mean, how do you kill them BostocksAlt: 28 terrible forge placements BostocksAlt: #18 will make you facepalm! -- Gwarl: yeah I don't know how to unzip the split archive rodent: you need to join the two "zips" into one zip and unzip the big zip BostocksAlt: we're nerds, we don't know anything about unzipping -- Gwarl: now I'm confused, fighting the variant maintainer, who is also confused, and there are software bugs everywhere -- kh: okay why did the ironman angband player forget how his game went kh: because he couldn't recall -- Fnord: Duelists can't dual wield? Gwarl: well Gwarl: they aren't dualists BostocksAlt: The dualist hits you! You feel the conflict between the material and the spiritual -- BostocksAlt: hmm, tough decision, potionmasters are more fun but scrollmasters are weirder -- bostock: Octodad the Orc has managed to generate so much loot I have to leave and unload bostock: A surprising but effective strategy for lengthening his lifespan -- Gwarl: I honestly don't understand why anyone would defend java Gwarl: you must have stockholm syndrome -- bostock: You have a Light Blue Mushroom (b). You feel very naive. How impatient! You have no more Mushrooms of Naivety in your pack. Orcobal the Mighty says, 'Has your folly led to this?' -- Your Time hound breathes Time at Saruman of Many Colours. Saruman of Many Colours seems weakened. Saruman of Many Colours says, 'Time? What time do you think we have?' -- BostocksAlt: Ghatanothoa dies. You just completed your quest! A magical staircase appears...-more- BostocksAlt: cl27, dl37 Fnord: You're pretty nuts, bostock. Did I ever mention that? BostocksAlt: Wow! You feel very self-confident! Welcome to level 28. The voice of Chardros booms out: 'My pets, destroy the arrogant mortal!' -- BostocksUgar: Jack of Shadows just stole my rod of illumination BostocksUgar: this should be canon -- wobbly is now watching wobbly: what does this mace do, hmm. let me just jump in a pool of lava -- bostock: time to do debby Fnord: I hate loot destroying things though bostock: i am a loot destroying thing Fnord: No you're not: I don't hate you. Qed. bostock: this lady has bad breath -- BostocksAlt: for godknowswhat reason BostocksAlt: numenor has a tendency to just randomly spawn clone-of-locke pits BostocksAlt: As Tolkien wrote in The Secret Unpublished Silmarillion: BostocksAlt: "Numenor is full of anime characters" -- Fnord: What's your goal with rodentband? rodent: I want to upturn world order and bring about the fall of mankind and the robot takeover BostocksAlt: sounds reasonable -- Nemo: crash :-( rodent: crashed under the weight of all the bostocks Nemo: It would be nice if someone could restore my file. If not I'll redo the level Nemo: @rodent has bostock been cloning himself rodent: yes rodent: not sure how I feel about bostock clones taking over the world, it's better than rule by normal humans I suppose BostocksUgar: I promise to be nice to the normies BostocksUgar: and to only generate Clone of Bostock pits in Numenor -- kobold: luring people into antisummoning corridors is hard when you're stealthier than god BostocksAlt: that's pretty stealthy BostocksAlt: never seen the guy -- BostocksAlt: You are shocked. Shocked, I tell you! -- BostocksUgar: The Yeek President is a thief BostocksUgar: I never knew vertigoalt: he probably casts Trump magic too :P vertigoalt: like that Plausible Deniability spell, or Invoke Alternative Facts -- Gwarl: losing that pet was like 1/4 as feelbad as losing a character rodent: so if you lose another 3 pets like that, you'll get all the feelbad of losing a character without having to actually lose a character BostocksAlt: "new plan for gwarl" -- bostock: where are you? rodent: war on drujs bostock: just say no to drujs bostock: the silly canadians are legalizing drujs bostock: but they'll regret it Gwarl: when they get double-whirlpooled -- [20:04] bostock: You have The Pair of Dragon Wings 'Terminater' [4,+20] (+2) {St;Li;RfLv[ET} (t).

You have a Pair of Dragon Wings [4,+10] {ElPoNtNx;Lv} (q). [01:50] bostock: But they're not complete [01:50] Gwarl: those certainly are [01:50] Gwarl: dragon wings [01:50] bostock: still lacking that [T [01:50] Gwarl: yes [01:50] Gwarl: go put it on them [01:52] bostock: this [01:52] bostock: i [01:52] bostock: i should play the lottery [01:52] bostock: You have The Pair of Dragon Wings of Caspanion [4,+19] {ElPoNtNx;Lv[ET} [01:53] Gwarl: ahahahaha [01:53] Gwarl: I'm sorry [01:53] Gwarl: it shouldn't be funny [01:53] Gwarl: lol yes it should [...] [04:05] bostock: You drop The Wizardstaff of the Rohirrim (1d2) (+14,+5) {Dm[T/*U}.

Fnord: And not "blaming" per se. Just calling them insane. -- bostock: clubber demons should discochant -- bostock: Also why am I suddenly a brute MITZE: because virtues bostock: You behold the eldritch visage of virtues! bostock: You are confused! -- wobbly: If you ever get tired of the virtue system. You can reuse it as a sarcastic talking sword -- bostock: Man Hera is really not interested in sitting around and getting killed rodent: what an unsporting attitude bostock: terrible mom bostock: Achievement unlocked: matricide bostock: all in a day's work on Mt. Olympus -- Gwarl: but yeah there are other spells, mana storm is not even the penultimate spell never mind ultimate one Gwarl: plus you also get polymorph self Gwarl: if you're into that sort of thing bostock: "He had a hot body and all, but he was into... you know... [whispers] *polymorph self*" -- Gwarl: so mitze. in the timed you gained two levels I had two death paladins past level 30 and killed both MITZE: Yeah sounds right MITZE: The important bit though Gwarl: I will probably lap you a third time before long MITZE: is that I'm still alive, whereas you have died twice Gwarl: yes but you're missing some vital information Gwarl: this character Gwarl: is the one MITZE: uh huh MITZE: considering your track record Gwarl: I'll kill the J and never have to prove myself again MITZE: forgive me for remaining MITZE: unconvinced Gwarl: how dare you question the veracity of the one true run Fnord: Are you calling the character J? -- MITZE: our resident fatcat decided he wanted in my lap bostock: MITZE hopes to be the living embodiment of the tortoise from The Tortoise and the Hare bostock: meanwhile, however, even a cat is lapping him -- bostock: Olog partyyy Gwarl: don't have olog parties Gwarl: there are rocks bostock: are there rolls? [...] bostock: these ologs are kinda led zeppelin bostock: they are bostock: dazed and confused -- Hugo: Well...probably not Polearmaster anymore...That Kell 77's opportunity...but she's dead already...I'm with Kell 85 now...so I'll probably go with Swordmastery to go along with the maxxed Marital Arts this time around [...] Gwarl: I see from the message history that Hugo has maxed marital arts skills Gwarl: he's not getting screwed in a divorce -- konijn_: Hmmm, how about an ergonomic variant that reduces keypresses, could call it WristBand ![]() -- BostocksUgar: luckily alchemists OP BostocksUgar: (please don't nerf them please) rodent: I nerfed them before they were even introduced, they're a lot more op in poschengband-r murphy: i feel like the word nerf is used heavily in this community BostocksUgar: if PCB had a nerf ball gun BostocksUgar: rodent would probably nerf it -- OmniNegro: Sleep well before rodent nerfs your bed into a pit full of spikes. -- rodent: don't die to the cyclops Gwarl: wow Gwarl: I died to the cyclops [...] Gwarl: why did I die to the cyclops Gwarl: just as rodent told me not to Gwarl: sigh bostock: you showed him who's boss :P -- MITZE: "Your position seems very uncertain." rodent: does that mean you know more about your momentum -- Gwarl: my priest capped his riding skill because it caps so low Gwarl: but my mount killed a huge bunch of stuff I'm sure Gwarl: so idk what to do with it and I need mitze's advice Gwarl: because I can't ignore it and do what I was going to anyway unless he gives me considered advice -- Gwarl: ugh I hate fiendish donkeys rodent: at least the variant maintainer doesn't summon them rodent: (yet) Nivim: (A unique that summoned them would probably be an ass.) bostock: This place is a barrel of laughs today bostock: So do we need a new unique, Jack of Asses? -- Gwarl: you should blame nick IMO Holy_Rage: nick?
