Whew, what a day!

This morning started out with our daily meeting at 7 AM PST as usual. After the meeting, we went to my house and had a tea party to get an extra buff for our guild dungeon run. Those who came to the tea party walked  out stronger and ready to run fast to the dungeon and kick some monster butt.
We headed into the dungeon with Crims, Psisis, GeoVilder, and myself. I wasn't sure we would make it. That's a small group of warriors for such a big task. Then from out of nowhere, Boory joined the fight. And when it still looked a little bleak on the 3rd floor, we cried out for the mighty Achilleus to come to our aid.
And we DID IT. We cleared the Snake Shrine with this craziness! It was a great time. We had a lot of hiccups along the way but we still succeeded in making a killing in loot doing a whole lot of killing.

I love the Snake Shrine. It's like Disneyland for some of us lol.
Some things I suggest after today's craziness:

If you plan to be in a dungeon run, attend the meeting beforehand. Don't show up right at the time of the dungeon, and really joining late is not to anyone's advantage.
Go to the teaparties, they really do make you stronger!
Make sure to have lots of healing options on hand, even resurrection scrolls, in case you lose a few mercs during a fight. A trip back to town with your whole party dead is no fun to come back from when the group is all the way up on the top floor. You miss a lot of the action :)
Lastly, appreciate people who are not able to come to the whole thing but can come in at the end anyway. They can totally change the fight from a scary one to a fun run. Thanks for jumping in and helping, Achilleus :) You rocked as usual.

Crims, Psi, you did great today at managing the meeting, killing in the dungeon, and showing some new folks how to do what it is we do. This game is so much more fun with friends.

Geo, way to go, you lived well and fought better than we had hoped for your first run! Awesome.

Boory, you didn't give up even when you had trouble getting in the door. Thank you!

DARKSIDE RULES, EVEN IF THE COOKIES ARE EVIL.
