Iron Man Challenge

Post by Fooshu »

So I have this idea for a challenge. What you do is start a new character. You have no connection to your other characters. If you die you delete the character. Just get as far as you can. Tell me what you guys think. (And you can group up with ONLY other iron man challengers.)

I may add: good ideas are made to be stolen (I mean shared).

This does sound fun. :)
How can I prove that my character had not died more than the final death?

There's a variable that keeps track of how many times you've died. Currently it's not publicly exposed by any scripts, but that would be trivial if it's wanted.
