If nothing else though, its pretty clear he has gained a fairly intimate knowledge of the place. Hes been studying it... Making sure he knows every turn before making his move. The others don't have this luxury, but he broke the dungeon (my guess is it was an accident that he discovered how to do it, but one hes running with).
So, technically, this prophesy's already been fulfilled (in all of the times before this almost 2,000,000th time). Or maybe the face was talking about an alternate reality? He was from the shield of wonder...Quote:

Probably nothing, given that her character is male. Also, they're not ALL male: bottom left.Quote:

I think that girl was who he was talking about.Quote:

I'm talking about the characters, not the players. The female Forgath must have a few questions.Quote:

The latter, Forgath is hard to discern (since the only shot he's missing his head) but Kin has different hair than our kin.Quote:

The hair, right. I wasn't certain if that was just lighting from a different angle, or my computer screen. They're different then, yeah.
What will happen, I wonder, when Psinimax and Minimax meet? Psi is clearly the 'boss' of the dungeon.
Registered in order to shed light on the lone Minmax in the "jedi outfit". Thunt has confirmed on live feed that he is indeed a sci-fi reference, but not Star Wars. He is a reference to
SpoilerAce Rimmer, from Red Dwarf.
What a guy.
His belt buckle probably says "Smoke me a kipper".
This might actually be the solution for the dungeon. Break the counter, get back your memories of all the times you've been through before, and suddenly you have a preset map with a list of traps and wrong turns you've encountered. Anyone who doesn't break the counter is still stuck going through the maze on a cherry run, where only blind luck could help them.Quote:

One wonders how exactly this team formed. I mean, Psimax doesn't strike me as good company to begin with.
To be fair, he could've gone insane watching his death endlessly.Quote:

Crazy psion deciding to try the Ender's Game solution where the way to win is to be crazy enough to do something no one else would dare.
Maybe he's decided that the place was only ever a trap to begin with, the "eventual guaranteed win" was a lie, and that he was doing everyone a favor by freeing them from their futile hope. It's the sort of no-I-really-do-know-better-than-you-what's-best-for-you garbage a high mind can fall into. Especially in a stressful circumstance.

PsinMax's arms could be some form of Claws of the Beast, perhaps enhanced with a few more powers along the way. It's a very Psion/Psychic Warrior thing to do.
Some Kins are not wearing GS's collar, so they would be able to use their psionic powers too...
New comic.
SpoilerThe eye on NoseringMax's arm is kinda freaking me out.
The idea that Minmax would actually describe somebody as an idiot is... appalling. How dumb do you have to be?!
The other guy has MM carved into his shoulder.
He's trying to stab through the wall....
He IS stabbing through the wall. There are lots of holes there, and apparently they fit his wooden sword quite easily.Quote:

Unfortunately, it also means pulling the other Minmax's spiky wall enough to the right to kill them.
I'm guessing the dungeon's like a tournament, then -- two (or more!) teams enter a room, one leaves, the rest die, rinse and repeat.
I think it's a tattoo, since it's purple.Quote:

Wouldn’t work. if our MM wants to move the spike-wall at all they will just wind up killing themselves. it might be that it's the hole-wall that moves, and each team needs to push it enough to exit through the other's door, thus requiring the other to die.Quote:

I might guess that the first group to the door gets to exit and the other group dies.
I could see there being enough space in between the spikes to move the wall without dying. Maybe they need to hurt themselves to do it, which is part of the sadistic challenge. Or maybe they need something flat and hard, like a good shield, so they can push the spikes and thus the wall.Quote:

That's not much of a race. Forgath's pretty much there by the third panel. :smalltongue:Quote:
