I realize this is all my own fault for playing a video game.
However.
Playing stupid Link game. There's a chest in a dungeon that I couldn't get to the first time through, and since it probably has a treasure in it that I can't win the game without, I try to go back for it.
Step One: Getting into the dungeon. Involves lots of jumping and leaping and floating and riding tornadoes and getting spat out of plants. One mis-step and you have to start over. Usually all over.
Step Two: Figuring out how to get to the rooms where the chests are at. Solving lots of puzzles and fighting monsters and searching rooms for the secret or hidden escape ways.
Step Three: Getting into the boss room where the door locks until you and the boss monster have duked it out. Except.
I already killed the boss in this room. So the door won't unlock until I kill the non-existent boss. And there's nothing lethal in here I can use to kill myself.

Cyranonymous sez:
Just a miniboss. The stupid moth guy. And the compass says it's two yellow lines next to each other--probably a trasure map or something. I've decided to have breakfast and then press reset and say 'screw that chest.'

I don't recognize the description of 'two yellow lines'...can you show me this afternoon?

Usually the 'one yellow line' means a door, and 'two yellow lines' means a treasure chest. (And it was only in the next room. grrr.)
