Grrr!

Things I didn't like: Level 1 in Series 8. Sure it was dank and dark, but it all pretty much the same. The first 3 series had dank, dark chambers without being virtually identical, and most of them had character!
Certain Dungeoneers. I swear, a couple of Dungeoneers were just walking puppets, relying on their advisors to do absolutely everything! I mean, obviously they're going to have to completely rely on the advisors for visual obstacles and directions. But there were a couple whose response to such brain-testing questions such as "What are you questing for?", "Do you have any gold to pay me?" or "What is your name?" was to ask their advisors what to say. Grrr...

I wouldn't have liked to have seen what Brother Strange would have done to it if it didn't have one ;D
Bored it to death with proverbs, I expect. His lack of personality should surely have warranted an "Extreme Caution Team! This creature is sapping Thingyon's life force at an alarming rate" warning from Treguard. Except by then all they had to show this was a cake- sorry, a PIE.
-
Perhaps Brother Mace would have made a special guest reappearance to eat the final piece in slow motion. And the cherry. (At least it looks like a cherry. And I guess that's what causes a lot of the pie/cake confusion.)

Me? Rant? When have I ever been known to rant? No, don't start listing the times, we'll be here all night!
Series 2 Team 7...which were they? Hang on...

Oh yes, the legendary magic users! All I can say is thank the Powers That Be that they never got hold of some really powerful magic like FIRE or AVAUNT. There might not have been much left of the Dungeon otherwise...

"Give me a life force pie or I sink the boat."

And why does the inside of the pie look red? What's it filled with to make it look so horrible? Strawberries? Blood?

It did have a cherry on top. Hence, yes, possibly a cake. I'm sticking to pie though, unless Tim Child personally decrees it otherwise. I don't think you'll be persecuted for calling it a cake, in any case.

There we go

LOL. I agree: the closest resemblance is to a pork pie. But then the cherry kinda doesn't fit. Ho hum.
In any case, that settles it. I'm calling it the life force quiche from now on.
-
I certainly never liked the cake/pie/thing. All the beautiful eerie life force sequences we'd had before - and then the damn cake. And Level on on series 8 was very samey. {sigh}
PS Ark are you now back in the world of the internet? I've noticed you posting a lot!

Me and Kieran are fiercely debating now - is it REALLY a cherry on top, or is it a pork pie dimple????
Anyway if it is a pork pie dimple I think that's really insulting to all vegetarian dungeoneers. Have dungeoneers gotten food which was meat before?

mmm... blood pie....
i always thought it was a cherry on the top and therefore the red colour was due to it being cherry pie.
but i do like the blood pie idea
