Code: Select all

The frustrated noble male human died.

> l
 You stand within a large canvas tent that looks like it is being used as both a 
command centre and the living quarters of this band of freedom fighters.  In the 
middle of the tent is a heavy wooden table covered in maps of the surroundings.
There is one obvious exit: north.
 A greying cloak with a platinum crest, a chainmail shirt, a chainmail hood, a 
heap with decayed remains of a frustrated noble male human, many solamnic two-
handed longswords lodged in the ground, many solamnic two-handed longswords, 
four empty vials, three metal cylinder (open)s, a pair of oars and a heavy 
wooden chest (open).

> pull sword
 You take a firm grip on the solamnic two-handed longsword, and pull it from the 
ground.
[...]
>count swords
You count one hundred twenty-seven swords.
So Garren died 130-140 times this cycle (12 days), every two hours or so.
Some time ago someone proposed adding to the stat-list on website a new list: npcs with the highest death rate.
Could be interesting.

I too remember we discussed that a while ago. My bet was on Kernan. Garren's number is impressively high though!

It would be a fun stat to have on the website. Unfortunately it does sound like a pretty time consuming thing to setup considering the number of NPCs we have in different domains using different code.
