For the upcoming 100th episode of Roguelike Radio we're going to air a compilation of pain, misery and futility, via a selection of recordings of YASDs. This involves players and devs submitting a short clip of themselves talking about a particularly poignant, horrific or hilarious instance of them dying in a roguelike.
Want to submit something, potentially ADOM-related? More details and submission form here:
https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1uVFudj ... o/viewform
It only takes a few minutes, and will lead to your shame being immortalised in roguelike lore forever! Who doesn't want that, eh? :)
Note that for ToME this really only applies to the Roguelike mode of play - deaths in Adventure mode aren't so interesting. Also ToME2 related submissions are very welcome :)

Re: Need YASDs for Roguelike Radio
Well, let's post some then shall we.
I'll start it off with what I feel was the stupidest death in all my Let's Play Recordings:
ToME - Cornac Cursed Ep 11 - Hating Yet Another Stupid Death
Check the recording around 23:40 for the beginning of the end of my Cornac Cursed in the Sandworm Tunnels. The Death Screen itself pops up just after 27:00 minutes....
Edit:
Other Deaths in my Let's Plays that may be worth looking into. I don't think they match the Cornac Cursed but some were considerably stupid - especially the one where I died in a Dream.
Let's Play ToME Steam Edition - Ghoul Necromancer - Episode 14 - Unexpected Death
Death by Urkis - after killing Urkis.
ToME - Shaloran Summoner - Death in the Old Forest
Death by OOD Enemy in Old Forest
ToME - Higher Reaver Ep 6 - Failing Yet Again
Death by Celia's Hordes
ToME - Yeek Bulwark Ep 6 - I Had a Dream and I Died
Death by Dreaming Stupidly
I'm not sure if you can take the recording out of the YouTube videos themselves, if you can't I can try submitting something too.

Re: Need YASDs for Roguelike Radio
I can't take the recordings I'm afraid, and they wouldn't be suitable anyway as you can't see what's happening. I'm more looking for you to recollect a moment and put in your own words what happened.
Sand tunnel deaths are always a good laugh :) The Urkis one also sounds amusing.

It is too bad you couldn't include the original audio. Anyhow.
As an aside, know of any good sites for uploading videos so that you can access them?

I don't want videos, just audio! Dropbox or Google Drive or Soundcloud all work.
