Or throw the rope up to the top and try to get it looped around something.

Uberbob took out the rope and duct tape. He securely taped the rope to his body, rather than just tieing it around himself like any normal person would do. He swung the free end around a few times and tossed it up the slope with all his might. It cracked like a whip and fell back down after making it less than a third of the way up. The rope was only about 100 feet long, and the cliff was well over 300 feet tall. This page was added to that useless thing they carry around with them that started out as a melted titanium spork.

So was I, I had a crazy idea that another avalanche would make a way to climb over... the... door......

Never mind.

Do what Ae tried, by hammering the chisels (sp?) into the ice and using the rope as a way to climb by tying them to the chisels. See if it actually works.

Your ideas are not very specific. Details, people, details.

Uberbob hammered a chisel into the ice, tied the rope to it, and tried to climb up. He only got as high as he could reach to hammer it in.

An excerpt from my last conversation with Radium:

devthemagister: They won't stand for this much longer.
ItalicSemicolon: We need more people D=
devthemagister: You're teetering on the edge of supervillainy.
ItalicSemicolon: I have before and it was awesome.

"The answer is beef."

Take another chisel (I assume he's still on the one he already hammered into the ice) and do the same. Have Faw climb up behind him, with all the other chisels. This way, Faw stays behind to pull out chisels below, and Uberbob hammers them into the ice above. And they climb. Meanwhile, Araches will save.

Warp the Party to Antifoo Isle, examine surroundings.

I'm doing Ae's first, for the sake of being formulaic.

While Uberbob clung to the rope pondering what to do next, it occured to me that I ought to examine Antifoo Island. I took the Magic Map from Shuri and warped myself there.
The majority of the island still appeared to be covered in red tape, with the words "DO NOT CROSS" written in big, bold letters across it. According to the sign at the front gate, the grand reopening was still scheduled for never. The Porta-save was up and running, so I tapped it before warping back, just in case Uberbob's next plan got us all killed.
I warped back to Upper Placespot and fell down the slope once more, though this time crashing into Uberbob. "The answer is beef!" He shouted as I struggled to get off of him and back on my feet. "And also, I have another plan!"
He leapt up again and got back on the rope. "Green guy I recently became best friends with! Get on this rope with me, and bring the other chisels!"
"You're NOT my best friend," Fawriel declared. "My best friend is D-"
"Less talkie more do-what-Uberbob-saysie!"
Fawriel sighed. He climbed onto the rope beneath Uberbob with the chisels tucked under his snazzy adventurer's belt. "Okay, here's the plan," Uberbob explained. "I'll climb up the rope, hammer in the next chisel, which YOU will hand to me, and then tie the rope around it and keep climbing up higher. Meanwhile, you pull out the chisels from the bottom as we climb so we can keep going up!"
I had to admit, it didn't sound like that bad of an idea. There was just one problem...
"You're NOT leaving u5 behind again!" L33tz4n declared. "You just sa1d you had feelings for me. I refuse to wait d0wn here while you do something dang3rous!" I was very surprised to hear such strong words coming out of humble and modest little L33tz4n's mouth. Uberbob almost seemed touched.
"Okay..." he said, smiling at L33tz4n. "We'll all go up!" he paused for a while, then added, "... Somehow!"

"Well, everyone has a chisel. Tie the rope around everyone's waist, so they're all connected, and proceed with the plan. But now with more people than just Faw. Whoever's last will pull out the chisel and hand it to the above person and so on until it gets to Uberbob. Then he hammers it in and climbs up with everyone following."

Whoever's last will pull out the chisel and hand it to the above person and so on until it gets to Uberbob. Then he hammers it in and climbs up with everyone following.

Can you still get to the part of Antifoo Isle that Fox is at? I was wondering what all wasn't taped off.

ALL IS TAPED. ITS LIKE THE WALLS IN GAMES THAT DONT CRACK EVEN THOUGH YOUR GUN BLOWS UP SOLID ROCK! All the place is useful for now is to save. And it's a good thing we did before we will try this.

Ae: Everything is taped off. And it's magic tape, so you can't go over, under or through it. The fusion of technology and the dark arts in this world has made breaking petty laws very, very difficult.

Uberbob stated his newest master plan. "Well, everyone has a chisel. Tie the rope around everyone's waist, so they're all connected, and proceed with the plan. But now with more people than just Faw. Whoever's last will pull out the chisel and hand it to the above person and so on until it gets to Uberbob. Then he hammers it in and climbs up with everyone following."
It sounded plausible enough, though still pretty dangerous, but then that's what Save Stations are for. We all got on the rope and began climbing up. I was on the bottom, noteably NOT under Shuriken, so it was my job to pull out the chisels as we climbed. We made it up about 100 feet, free of any difficulties worth noting.
As always, however, something went wrong. A huge boulder fell from the slope and began rolling directly towards us, gathering snow on the way down and getting larger and larger. Halfway down it looked to be about 20 feet in diameter. Apparently someone didn't want us to reach Upper Placespot so easily.
Uberbob shot the Snowball of Death a defiant eye. I hoped he had another brilliant plan, because despite what teen movies will have you believe, dyin' ain't cool.

Sling fireball at Snowball of Death

"Gay sorceress fox lady!" Uberbob shouted as the Snowball of Death approached. "Sling a fireball! NOW!"
Before he had even said a word I was already conjuring a formidable ball of hellfire. I cried out with the full force of my lungs as I flung the whirling ball of flaming magic with all my might. It collided with the snowy abomination, and consumed it. The snow melted instantly, but unfortunately the boulder within it did not. It slammed directly into Uberbob, knocking the chisel, the rope, and everyone attached off of the slope, plummetting severel feet to their horrible, bloody deaths...

I warped back to Upper Placespot and slid down the slope once more, though this time crashing into Uberbob. "The answer is beef!" He shouted as I struggled to get off of him and back on my feet. Oddly, it seemed like I had known the answer all along...

Inventory

Ask L33tz4n what she remembers is for trade at the Trading Post.

Hmmmmmmm. What happens if you put an inanimate object on the magic map the way you would normally put your hand on it when teleporting?

Try that with the Thirdnote.

"Say, L33tz4n, do you remember what was up for trade at the Trading Post?" Uberbob asked.
L33tz4n recited the items at the Trade Post from memory in fluent html.

"

"

"What happens if you put an inanimate object on the magic map the way you would normally put your hand on it when teleporting?" Uberbob then asked, apparently still talking to L33tz4n, his slithering encyclopedia.
"I don't kn0w," she replied. "L3t's try it with the Thirdnoteetc. Make sure you try w4rping it either here or somewhere Fawr1el can go."
Uberbob nodded, placed the Magic Map on the ground, then dropped the Thirdnotetc. onto the drawing of Upper Placespot. Nothing happened.
"Looks like it takes the touch of a living person," Shuri stated.

..so about how large is the boulder itself, oh great, powerful DM?

Oh, and while we're at it, analyze the slope. Is it pure ice?

Meanwhile have Faw warp to Pandora's Isle to trade the Bottle + Canadian Bits for the mitten. And then come back.

You don't know, you just reloaded remember? Try asking when it's just about to kill you again. D=

I looked at the slope again. It was pure ice. Ice rhymes with rice. When Uberbob's journey started, he had a Chinese takeout box with some rice. Funny how things work out like that.

Do what post #1089 said.

And Faw took the Magic Map, warped to Pandora's Islane, traded the bottle of Canadian bits for the mitten, then warped back. Now when you fall to your deaths you'll at least have warm hands.

And use your imagination, Ae. There are plenty of logical ways to deal with this obstacle.

Yeah, I just used it as you were typing that, and edited ;O

I'm lazy, sue me.

Cast FysicsPhailure on the Snowball of Doom.

Alriiiiiiiiiiiiiight...

Get up the slope again, managing it the same way as before, what with the icepicks and tying everyone together with the rope and duct tape and stuff.
Then, when the snowball arrives, make Araches quickly thaw a cavern-like hollow form into the slope and make everyone slip into it, so the snowball rolls over it.
Like.. this.

We should just have a portable hole.

Yay! Did we catch a fallin autumn leaf? That brings good luck next year..one leaf for every month.

Sorry, Faw, but when commands conflict with each other I must abide by the sacred laws of the DM.

Uberbob smiled the kind of smile that only someone brimming with insanity can smile. We were all very, very worried.
"We're gonna get pwned!" Fawriel cried.
"No!" Uberbob declared as he puffed out his chest. "'Tis the Snowball which shalt meet thine pwnage! I never studied fysics in high school, so feel my FYSICS PHAILURE!"
Somewhere Albert Einstein rolled over in his grave. The Snowball of Death's mass increased exponentially by the nine hundred and ninety-nine trillionth, nine hundred and ninety-nine billionth, nine hundred ninety-nine millionth, nine hundred and ninety-nine thousendth, nine hundred and ninety-two point sixth power. The universe collapsed into oblivion.
Out in the middle of perpetual nothingness, God sighed and said, "I knew I shouldn't have made that Uberbob guy."

I put my hand to the ice slope and shot a fireball spell into it. The thin layer of snow melted, but the ice below it did not. Before I could even call Uberbob an incopetant boob for forgetting that only the enchanted ice tools can damage the ice, we were struck by the Snowball of Death. We all plummetted several feet to our horrible, bloody deaths...

My map is crazy looking, and need to be refreshened, what's to the East, West, North and South?

After that, go the guy on the frozen wave and have Faw revive or heal him.

It only looked maybe five feet down from here.

Go W, N, and try to heal or revive the frozen guy. If all else fails, have Araches throw a fireball at him.

Well, now that I know he is there:
Chisel into the ice to get the guy out.

Wait a good ten minutes or so for the boulder to fall, *then* try climbing up as before.

I think that somebody pushed it off because we started climbing

Okay, in that case can we get Faw to teleport up there and make sure no boulders get pushed off?
