also, I notice that goldmax's weapon got dropped. Psimax will still be weak to it.
Hopefully our minmax will see this and use it to kill psimax

There is still hope, I didn't see a -10. ;)

Astounding, he is still standing with two punctured lungs. Man! We just can't catch a break. It is time to end this.

I wonder if Goldmax's weapon would work. Maybe.

Agh, Ninja'ed.... (yep, waiting for the site to load the permalink took a bit, and that was why my post was late...)

I don't understand it either....
Except maybe that PsiMax was save just before the -10 (although he was still in the positives - that would have been a coup de grace).

I couldn't decide between my title and yours, I went with this one but without any certainty. Do you think yours is better suited?

Hahaha! Okay, that makes sense, but a bit obscure. I like it though. :wall:

Darn it, I was hoping Godmax was going down.

Oh well, guess we'll have to listen to Fartface Dinkbreath for a while longer. Or was he Dinkface Fartbreath?

Looks like one to the chest and the other to the upper abdomen - both potentially fatal injuries - should be on the ground, writhing in agony and -8 by now.

Guess Goldmax wasn't so lucky after all... :(

I'm sure Thunt knew what he was doing. Still, not a whole lot for us to speculate on. We need another arbitrary solution.

I've always been confused why not-Walter thought he was off the hook. Wouldn't he just go back when the maze restarted again? I'm amazed he could be banished to hell from the maze at all.

Nope, it was the title I chose for my thread. My post here is 2 minutes later (by timestamp)...

So, I decided to keep the title I would have chosen, just for the fun of it.

ShrikeMax (or MinotaurMax (hooves), or BladeMax, BlenderMax ) is dumb and aggressive, only attacking with the intent of wrecking havoc. While others seemingly tried to organise something, he just goes on a frenzy.

EDIT: Now I see, PsiMax lifts MinotaurMax and throws him against GoldMax. That makes a lot more sense....

By the way, why did the monster-Minmax get pushed into Goldmax? He seems to be happily killing someone in panel 3, but then he suddenly gets thrown backwards.

I think the naming of BlenderMax just became moot haha he was a plot point that was used and abused in the 7 panels he existed.

Silly posters, hp are just an abstraction except when used as a joke like with Fox. Everyone else is just a sack of red stuff, he's in positive hp totals so he'll be fine. :P

I like that he had to get to his feet, looks like no more flying for him. If so, probably no more teleporting either. Which means that if even if he still has the splishk power, he can't easily get to 3.5 Kins so they have time to do more to him. Maybe they can cut off those infinite power points. Good idea about Goldmax's weapon still possibly working though. Our Minmax might have trouble reaching it though.

Yeah. He went into the psionic blender.... :(

Panel 2: the beltbuckle misses the "I am great".
Rather untypical for THunt to miss that...

And just to detail the action in case it's unclear for anyone:

1: GoldMax pulls out his glaive-guisarm-glaive (not really, just making a funny about AD&D polearms) and PsiMax makes a shield.
2: GoldMax smashes right through the shield. back into PsiMax
3. Introducing BladeMax
4. PsiMax TKs BladeMax into the air...
5. ...and into GoldMax
6-8. should be obvious.
9. Why did we name him?
