So, the NS is here
Muscle: 141 (93)
Mysticality: 275 (151)
Moxie: 121 (99)
1st form: CRITICAL fettucini for 765 - funny
2nd form: noodles and 2x fettucini, bu not a lot HP left
So hooray - I defeated the NS on the first try. This really SUCKS - winning using the first adventure of the day.
Total length: 6 days :-(, 1180 adventures. I blame it or my bad luck. This could and should have been my first 5-day HC run, but it is at least possible to do it without olfaction or a lot of expensive familiars (I have hebo and llama).
And then I permed Powers of observation and ascended into another contest.
Seal Clubber under Bad Moon for the first time.
Progress was slow, I opened manor, got encryption key, got gravy (and 3 spooky mushrooms :-(). I cleared the tavern cellar and found the grave at the end of the day.

Another contest
Almost the first 5-dayer
Bad luck again, finding the pyramid took ages. Over 20 adventures to meet Gnasir for the first time...
The beach was troubling as well.
Nevertheless, I made it to L13 with 19 adventures left.
Maze was not bad. Only 3 adventures.
The tower:
Flaming Samurai - 3 adventures
Electron Submarine - 3 adventures
Pretty Fly - 5 adventures
possessed pipe-organ - 1 adventure
giant fried egg - 1 adventure
giant bee - 1 adventure
Guess what - I have 1 adventure left. This SUCKS. I can beat the shadow and then look at the NS laughing at me. If I only had the torpedo, or that tattered paper worked or if I used that fortune cookie with milk... Never mind.
Should I use the last adventure to fight a sand worm and hope for spice melange? That's not really worth it. I guess I'll wait for olfaction.
Long leap
With 195 adventures at the start of the day I reached level 12 and started the war. But I still have to find the pyramid and the holy MacGuffin.
Free beer
I got liver of steel and finished all the older quests. I did my vacations and unexpectedly got beer.

Slow start
I have problems reaching level 4 in time but at least I did not forget the karma this time.

Not spectacular
I finished the war, skipping the nuns and dooks. The hippy chief was not a big problem - 3 boom boxes, 3 gas balloons, noodles and fearful fettuccini.
The I had to collect ruby W, that went relatively well. And after gettin ~1000 substats, I reached level 13.
Then trouble with chewing gum and DoD potion - it was the last one and I have to get lots of boxes. Getting 3 drunkenness from the wrong potion goes without saying.
Tower:
the Fickle Finger of F8 - 1 adventure
El Diablo - 20 adventures
an Electron Submarine - 1 adventure
a Flaming Samurai - 6 adventures
a malevolent crop circle - 1 adventure
a giant bee - 1 adventure
familiars needed:
sabre-toothed lime - good
potato - bad, another ~20 adventures gone
The NS was standard. Beaten up 3 times (not really trying to win), won on the 4th time without much problems. My Animated Macaroni Duck did its part.
Muscle: 117 (97) (~230HP)
Mysticality: 177 (150)
Moxie: 106 (95)
Equipment:
big bad voodoo mask
white hat hacker T-shirt
Staff of the Soupbone
kickback cookbook
flowing hippy skirt
Nickel Gamma of Frugality
rusty chain necklace
bejeweled pledge pin
Familiar:
Tofflesby, the 10 pound Animated Macaroni Duck
Run length: 12 days, 1560 adventures
I am not proud of this run and I see no chance to win anything, but getting the extra karma when breaking the prism was sweet.
Not enough
I was relatively lucky today, but it was not enough. If I used all adventures I would finish the island war and maybe reach level 13. But since I am missing ruby W and 3 familiars, I gave up and collected my arrrbor day rewards planted 2 Crotchety Pine saplings.
Final stats:

Finishing tomorrow should not be too hard.
Chances getting down
My chances to finish tomorrow are very slim. I reached level 12 and got 1 piece of war outfit. That is not enough. Only extreme luck can help me finish tomorrow.

Damned Whitey
No bird rib, 4 lion oils. What can I say? I doubt I'll manage a 11-dayer.

Airship troubles
This is the first muscle day.
In the airship, I got the 4 immateria pieces and had more than 10 adventures to a semi-rare. No sock. I had to pick up a lunchbox.
I got the pirate fledges and Staff of Soupbone - setting proper +ML is weird in BM.
I bought a couple of skill and I must save some meat for leash.

Boring day
I got the wand, pirate outfit and mining outfit today. Mining was slow - I got multiple chunks of each ore.
I bought gluttony and fortune cookie and was left with 1 meat at the end of the day.

Some adventures saved.
On the trail
Today, I did used my filthy lucre and hunted fruit golems. 7 limes, 8 cherries, 9 oranges, 3 grapefruits - I would be happy if oranges and limes numbers were swapped.
4 locked doors in daily dungeon and I got Jarlsberg's key.
Then I headed into the cyrpt and slaughtered the sub-bosses.
