< Rodney> NetHack is a game. Read the join message, ferchrissake.
< bcode> Guest92585: this is a channel about a computer game; I think you might be wrong here
< Guest92585> Computer Game is the same bcode
< bcode> Guest92585: you seem to be talking about breaking into computer systems, which is definitely not what this channel is about.

<terrapin> i've always felt that 'hi' is an odd choice of letters to start a conversation. 'ab' feels much more orthographically appropriate
<K2> or use yz instead of bye
<K2> ab!
<K2> yz!

<Loggers_VIII> ab?
<K2> yeah
<K2> ab o/
<Loggers_VIII> ab!
<Umbire> alright so it's not a COMPLETE nonstarter
(In ##nethack-variants, microlance is gifted a minion in dNetHack.)
<@microlance> wtf this centaur i got gifted is a mundane animal, is that why it wont pick up weapons?
<Umbire> feral centaur
<Umbire> feraltaur
<@microlance> this centaur is probably some kind of pluto-type person of the centaur world.
<Umbire> what measure is a non-human in NetHack pt. 235,425,246
<K2> qt - when you have time and are feeling frisky, feel free to stress-test the timeslider on the evilhack etherpad
<K2> it appears to be working properly now
<K2> i used it last night
<K2> fucking etherpad... :)
<qt> I'm deeply scared of the slider now
<qt> I can't even dance the electric slide any more without getting flashbacks
<qt> And I used to spend four or five hours every day doing that
* fraggsta wakes up again (yeah so I fell asleep playing nh again..)
<Porkman> where's a description of all these spells, scrolls, items, crap
<Porkman> if I knew what stuff does I would possibly be able to ascend slex
<+LarienTelrunya> oh I guess you don't know about in-game item descriptions yet? hit an item's corresponding letter in main inventory view
<+jonadab> Porkman: Clearly with this information you must now do an all-roles streak.
<Porkman> nah. i don't even know what 98% of these roles even do
<Porkman> plus I don't think every game is winnable
<Toneootc> MC3 is still a nice bonus over 2. It just isn't the bear immunity it was in 343
<aosdict> bear immunity?
<aosdict> bear immunity would be a pretty nice thing to have. "The owlbear hits you, but it bounces off!"
<dracunos> The owl part still hurts though
<ChrisE> "Take off your gloves; they're too clumsy."
<ChrisE> The succubus is correct about that - they are gauntlets of fumbling.
<bhaak> I'm developing a variant where the goal is to make all the messages meaningless to most nethack players
<bhaak> I'm on it for 7 years
<bhaak> should I be disappointed that nh4 is beating me to it?
<FUZxxl> there should be a bottle deposit system
<FUZxxl> where you can return bottles for gold
<FUZxxl> if you don't the keystone kops fine you for littering
<aosdict> and a recycling program for empty tins
<@Croesus> [US] nabru (Val Dwa Fem Law) murdered Rougelike, her faithful kitten, on T:533
<+rld> <@Eternal Guardian> It's spelled roguelike.
<infinigon> stth and aoei should probably figure out a way to trade letters in their name
<aoei> infinigon: huh?
<infinigon> aoei: it would increase the pronounceability of both of your names.
<misha> You see here a killer bee corpse. It buzzes!
<cathartes> zombee

<Rodney> Conduct: You may not learn the BUC status of every artifact.
<mrak> difficult combination
<SilverCheshire> i just fell through a trap door straight into a shop and all the shopkeeper said was "welcome". does anything faze these guys?
<Wooble> invisibility. also leaving their shop through a hole.
<Mickmane> they don't like pickaxes either
<Nietzsche> They really hate tourists, too.
<ChrisS67> attacking them may also faze them a bit
<SilverCheshire> "don't like" and "don't get surprised at all even if you fall through the ceiling right next to them" are different things
<SilverCheshire> i just mean my first words in this situation would be something other than "oh hi"
<sproingie> they run a shop in a dungeon. they're used to unconventional entrances.
<sproingie> they just dont like unconventional exits
<AntiGulp> This second hand bookstore is selling the Colour of Magic, a scroll of identify, and literally nothing else.
<amateurhour> everyone's hoarding books to stave off boredom during this coronavirus thing
<raisse> never heard of ebooks, have they?
<aosdict> What do you want to read? x - a Kindle You learn the "force bolt" spell. You learn the "identify" spell. You learn the "wizard lock" spell. You learn the "touch of death" spell.
<slengtorm> kindle doesn't give you fireball?
< stenno> what would be a funny rrga combo to try for training
< stenno> hum arc?
< anselmus> your name alone will compel multiple players to quit
< anselmus> rrga?
< Rodney> Role, race, gender, alignment; #nethack's ASL.
< stenno> what idiot wrote that
< stenno> !learn info #nethack:rrga?
< Rodney> #nethack:rrga? has contributions by: [1]rawrmage
< stenno> oh i thought it was me lol
< stenno> no disrespect against rawrmage
<AmyBSOD> And a really useful one, the spellbook of flying. Because flying is awesome both in NetHack and in real life.
<ProzacElf> heh
<AmyBSOD> sometimes I dream that I actually had fully functional wings in real life, that would be awesome...
<ProzacElf> they'd need to be really really big to actually give you any lift
<ProzacElf> if they were like angel or bat style wings
<ProzacElf> i mean, unless they worked via magic
<ProzacElf> or super powers
<ProzacElf> or something
<AmyBSOD> yeah, there should be magic in real life too! :D
< IanKeith> Yep, I just found a ring of polymorph the hard way.
< IanKeith> You turn into an Olog-hai! You break out of your armor!
< HiSPeed> you mean the body armorless way?
<krm26> I'd take an artifact towel
<krm26> Oooh, Towel that blinds + astral vision
<krm26> Towel of Invisibility (they can't see you if you can't see them)
<K2> HHGTTG reference there, nice
<krm26> The Blandfold, when worn you can eat anything and it tastes tolerable, can only see a 3x3 square, can't be blinded, sustain ability
<krm26> Magical scrollcase like the horn of plenty but for (typically poor) scrolls

aosdict: It's not supposed to count, and it's outputted in the xlogfile flags field, as I have told bhaak
aosdict: brb going to go ascend a polyinit archon in xnh
<ShivanHunter> oooof. There's nothing like standing naked in soko haveing happy fun times with some nurses and then SUDDENLY ARCH-LICH
<kerio> omg, Adeon ascended!
<kerio> Adeon: I thought you weren't going to play!
<ais523> kerio: this is Adeon we're talking about, he probably ascended by mistake
< spontiff> "Burrrp!" It turns into it!

< ChrisS67> slightly vague...
<K2> The venomous battle-axe of venom poisons the wolf! You kill the wolf!

<Grasshopper> "Mr Fluffy hits the flaming sphere. Mr Fluffy squeezes the flaming sphere. The flaming sphere explodes!"
<Grasshopper> You can imagine a cute fluffy cat doing that.
<Grasshopper> Now imagine a cute fluffy balrog
<elenmirie> a persian cat
<Grasshopper> I'm thinking a bit more on the ginger side
<elenmirie> I'm a cat, I'm a cat, I'm a Glasgow cat, and me name is Sam the Skull...
<elenmirie> I got claws on me paws like a crocodiles jaws and I know how to use them well
<elenmirie> I'm not the kind of cat that sits on a mat, nor the kind you would give a hug...
<elenmirie> but I'm the kind of cat that would swallow your hat, and maybe the occasional dog!
<Rodney> Jacruth (Wiz Orc Mal Cha), 3944 points, T:4025, killed by a kitten
<elenmirie> ^^ Sam the Skull
<Grasshopper> elenmirie, lol that's priceless
<Cwiiis> Work is evil... stops me from playing NetHack :(
<Menchers> !vladbane
<Rodney> runesword
<aosdict> A runesword is a terrible vladsbane. It has damage stats, for crying out loud.
< tweek__> ... I'm the G
< tweek__> and I'm on Jubilex's level
< greycat> dare we ask why you are a G?
< paxed> his mother knows...
< paxed> at least i'd assume so.
< greycat> ah, I forgot, some people are born that way
<paxed> hysterical raisins
<K2> ^ new email signature
<aosdict> K2: you mean, new fruit name
<K2> no
<K2> work email signature
<K2> can't wait til I have send an email to the executive level folks
<jonadab> "Eat your broccoli," her mother said. "That's not even a comestible in NetHack, so I promise it won't mess up your foodless conduct in the game."
<Elronnd> OPTIONS=fruit:broccoli
<aosdict> lies. you can't set fruit to a vegetable! That's against the rules! Do I need to call the Kops?
<ilbelkyr> you can set it to tomato though, since tomatoes are technically fruit
<ilbelkyr> (reminds me of the old "D&D stats explained by tomatoes" thing)
<ilbelkyr> (Str is the ability to squish a tomato in your hand. Dex is the ability to evade a thrown tomato. Con is the ability to eat a rotten tomato and survive. Int is knowing tomatos are fruit. Wis is not putting them in a fruit salad anyway. Cha is being able to sell a fruit salad full of tomatoes)
<jonadab> Hmm, I thought Wis was being able to cast "make fruit salad" every couple of rounds without running out of magical energy.
<ilbelkyr> to do that with pudding, otoh, you need the Eye of Tapioca.
<krm26> Evilhack definitely hits that sweet spot of ascension likelihood where I can *probably* do it but I'm going to having multiple heart attacks the whole time anyway
<dizzylizzy> haha, Orange Dragon dropped a wand of sleep
<dizzylizzy> it's okay buddy, have a little faith in yourself
<botifico-16655b7> [xNetHack] copperwater 5b41c94 - Fix: "leather armor" shim made all wishes produce light armor

<spontiff> Player monsters carry around some weird stuff
<spontiff> e - a figurine of an elf-lord
<K2> it's his stuffy
<K2> probably named it 'Bob' or 'Steve'
<Grasshopper> "There is a troll corpse here; eat it? This troll corpse tastes terrible! It explodes! You seem unaffected by it. Kaablamm! You hear an explosion in the distance. You finish eating the troll corpse."
<Grasshopper> somebody else is out there eating exploding troll corpses... creepy
<hothraxxa> ok this is rich. i am in minetown and it's dgoddard bones
<hothraxxa> apparently he found my bones in the game where i found dgoddard bones
