For those of you with a Skeleton of Crimbo Past, today is the day ever 3 months or so the previously most desired Crimbo skill, Sweet Synthesis pops up in his store.

For those who do not have the Skeleton, it's been knocked down in mall price to about 10m which is not a bad deal (although it'll probably be even cheaper in 3 months time).

Feel like today trying for a Counterclockwise watch.

Opened the temporal riff. Hits level 6 soon.

Ate bacon burger. Hits level 6 again.

Use goofball. Use too much becomes level 2

Use 2 overdue library book back to level 4

Then I got it.

I was in cola gear. Fyi.

Cleverly put a Saber on sale, tantalizingly close to what I've been saving to buy a saber.

So I donated and sold a couple Mr. A's and finally, I have one. Now I can quit mentioning how much I want one of these things.

my original post

Hey everyone, this is an update to my original post here regarding my missing items/aborted run.

The admins went through the logs and found the perpetrator! They had gotten my password from another site that had a leak and cleaned out what they could from my display cabinet.

They restored everything back to my account, plus the 6.5m meat they took as well. It was a lot more than I realised...

I'm incredibly grateful to them, and for all the advice y'all gave me. Thank you!

Howdy y'all.

Been getting back into KoL recently and trying to log in as often as I remember, which is perhaps once a month on average.

When I logged in today, I had a message that "This run was ended prematurely" and I'm back to being a level 1 TT, not sure what path I'm on (previously was on HCO). My inventory is also rammed with all sorts of things, most of which I'm not sure where or when I picked them up. There seems to be a lot of tiny plastic figures.

Is there any way I can work out what happened? I got a message on the 12th August from Lady Spookyraven, which is the only one in my inbox. It's all a bit of a mystery...

My player number is 483900 of that might help!

Hello hi, friends! I'm Sklytor (user #3735169), and I ascended for the first time from Disco Bandit into Pastamancer (I permed Advanced Cocktailcrafting). I dropped the game for a long time and am now dropping back in to it, and I remembered how much I love the crafting. My personal goal is to ascend enough times to perm all the crafting/smithing skills to be mostly self-sufficient, but I remember seeing stuff about the Tiny Plastic Sword on the wiki. It aches my heart to see cocktailing recipes I can't quite make yet, and I can't remember how to get a little sword for them. Does anyone know how to get one? I don't really have much meat or good items on hand, but it's been a few years since I checked Hagnk's, so I could be wrong.

DISCLAIMER: This is NOT a trading request or a begging post. I know that's not allowed here, and even if it was, I'm a Ronin with 900+ adventures left and I'm level 3. So you'd be waiting a while for me to catch back up.

CDM has really been kicking ass the past couple of weeks, getting stuff running faster (and more cheaply!?)

Since you can play your turns faster now, maybe you should use some of that spare time to post your adulation.

Buffy's status has been "maintenance" for two/three days now https://kol.obeliks.de/buffbot/buff

I never realized how much I relied on her in aftercore until she was gone 🥲

Edit: it looks like it's back! I can go back to being inefficient but slightly more productive in aftercore

I don't actually care that much, but I was just curious on whether all quests should have given a Mr A or if this one just gives a much larger reward. Or even if I found some sort of secret.

Garbo has set my "use choice adventure" or whatever the exact syntax is to garbo_choice. Garbo choice contains code for handling "Time is a Mobius strip" choices. Why doesn't it handle those choices outside running Garbo? If it is optimized to get the most out of Mobius, how can I use it for Mobius choices outside of running Garbo?

Hey folks!

I'm not sure what and how to approach the Crimbo area in the Otori event.

I've already found the Otorians there.

When I adventure at a location, I ocassionaly get a progress message about sabotage and the area is temporarily locked.

Is there a specific way or order how to adventure in the three Crimbo zones to complete the quest?

Or is it enough to simply get the successful sabotage message enough times, regardless of where I adventure?

For the Blue vs Red path, I am getting an error with the https://d2uyhvukfffg5a.cloudfront.net/scripts/ocrs.css file. I only noticed because KoLmafia coughed up a debug log. Based on my limited troubleshooting skills, the header of the css file indicates that it is gzip encoded but the body of the file is not gzip compressed. It seems that the file in the AWS S3 bucket that is being served by CloudFront isn't correct or the metadata for the file is incorrect. Or something.

Is anyone else encountering this?

I got 4 accounts and have been playing since about March. Honestly it seems like every day I learn something new or have a new "ah-ha" moment about the game. I'd like to start exploring the Clan Basement area and learning more about that.

A bit about me: I'm almost 40. I have no idea how discord works because I've never had to use it. Last time I was able to game enough to be in a clan we still had xfire and team speak lol. But I am willing to learn! All my characters are after ronin at the moment and I'll probably stay that way for a month or two while I explore and learn more. I'm good for at least 1M meat per week per character when I'm out of ronin. Also I generally play at night. Rollover is 10:30PM my time and I usually play between then 2AM.

I apologize if this isn't the right place for this post but this is the best place I know of to reach other KOL players.

I have been researching different items for a day now and have only found a few actual ones that help. I just wanted to know if there were anymore items that could help with meat gains as I dont have alot.

So I'm having trouble finishing up my third quest. I solved the Penguin Problem and the quest log is telling me to speak to Psyko to demand rewards, but when I go to him all he says is that they have clanmates scattered everywhere and the mobster penguins breathing down their necks.

Anyone have any suggestions? I'm hoping I'm just overlooking something small. I've completed the Yeti Crisis and Grave concerns, so both of those are marked Quest Complete.

I just spent all 60 adventures for trial and error trying to pass the boss in the Skeleton camp and still haven't beat him.

As a non-native English speakers, I truly can't understand the word structure that needs unravelling...

Even AI support gave me incorrect answers each time.

Could someone please give me the correct answers?

Hi guys,

I'm trying to defeat Yog-Urt but the damn cat is knocking my potions out of my hand every time. I do have Funkslinging now that I recalled my ancestral memories; how is she getting both potions? Let me know if you have any tips or if I should just give up. Trying to work on the Clothing of Loathing and not sure if I should just start over sans cat. Thanks!

Guys what should I do???

For any one that missed it, Otori clan is running an event right now that is on a separate site but has KOL-like quests and sends the items you earn to your kol account. https://clanotori.net/worldevents.html

I've been having a great time but now I'm stuck on some of the quests. I don't know how to solve the Penguin Mafia puzzle "You're bouncing off the walls again" and I don't know how to unlock most of the locked areas.

On the site it says "Community spading is allowed and even encouraged! Just keep in mind that the best prizes go to whoever finishes certain activities first. Also, please try to be mindful of overt spoilers for folks who want to figure things out themselves." but where would such discussions take place if they are happening?

I'm not trying to race to finish things first but would like to experience as much of the event as possible before it's over. I would personally be happy with an overt spoiler for the Penguin Mafia puzzle if anyone would like to give me one. Thanks y'all.

14 hours away lol. And I almost certainly could have planned better to avoid this, but that's part of the fun!

Anyone else having problems using the "expand" button on the wiki to open tables and things?
