they are just known to cause ase errors


That was one reason. The other is you don't want to enter the final "battle" and have yourselves buffed ahead of time. Thanks to Rick for this tip yesterday. ;)

you did it wrong, paul checked the logs prior to giving them the points!!!


I still will never try MM again anytime soon!


we did not, we did it the same way as in 1.19, when we completed it several times.

Wow, that's awesome, didn't expect this, thanks Paul!

For you all who have tried it and failed (or just got cheated as you saying): I feel your pain, but we cannot be really sure how it was (Paul has his logs and he knows it for sure, so he has a right, I think).
I don't want to argue with anyone, because I don't know how exactly looked your MM try, but what can I do for you is just list all the details of our climb:

1. Entering together to the game w/o going down to catacombs.
2. Going down, MM is active for all.
3. No towning ofc!
4. No driver's change.
5. No glyphs running before moving to the last square.
6. Using some fish/comfreys for 100% life before last square (that's what we did and maybe that's why no one died).
7. After moving to the last square we got ASE error and d/c (so then I knew that at least SOMETHING really happened).

I think that's it, if I forgot anything, someone from our team plz add it :)


thats exactly how we did it.
whatever, i think its better to go afk for a while before i post things i might regret

There is a lot of room for variation. Were you guys each exactly level 70 or was anyone 71+? Did you all enter the catacomb and NOT MOVE, or had the party moved and then someone entered later? Did you pass lead at all? Did each of you have MM active prior to even forming the group?

These things could all mean the difference I suppose.

I would hope none of you died or went to town or disconnected, that would be quite an obvious red-flag.

I think we were the first to do it in 1.20, we did not get ASE error, we had MM enabled, but the last spot event just did not occur. We reported this of course and shortly after, paul told us to try again, and promised us 5 GP each in case of another fail.
I'm pretty sure there were some - lets call it inconsistencies - in the code. Anyway we did not get rewarded plus we did not feel like being pauls bugtesting crew. So we did actually not try again, as instead of wasting 9 hours(or even more if having very bad spins) on a mirror maze attempt you can do 3 up to nearly 4 climbs in that time which will earn you the same gp/time, (1+ (5-2)/2) = 3.5 3-4 climbs will be 3-4 gp also, also benefiting your progress in the ladder as well as giving you more chances to pass your Main Chars (fully ignoring that it would be stupid to think you can do mm with only robe classes :D).
Anyway, I also better go afk for now.

I don't understand that part.... glyphs can really make a difference?


you missed it last night they got a error on the last square of mm
so he was saying it must be caused by mirror maze and not glyphs and such
