For me, 2007 is the year of the roguelike text adventure.
I ascended Nethack this year with a Chaotic Orcish Rogue. I was totally spoiled by the Nethack, uh, spoilers. My character was two-weaponing, spell casting, and generally laying waste to the alphabetical hazards. I don't RPG in real life. Only on computers and only this year: perhaps I felt my geek credibility was in jeopardy. Proof of ascension is on alt.org. I'll never do it again. I doubt I'll even attempt it again. If I do attempt again, I'll kill Vlad the Impaler with a carrot, as is the emerging custom. Rock!
