< Stevie-O> I'm starting to think that the only way to really ascend in Nethack is to aim for a YASD and miss
< jonadab> Stevie-O: Just make sure you aim for a YASD *on the astral plane* and miss.
< jonadab> If you miss earlier in the game, you'll probably get YAAD.
<Khor> What is dis
* Khor pokes Slashthem with a stick
<FIQ> it's a saner slex
<Bluescreen> Khor, it's a hopelessly outdated version of slex that misses a lot of the fun stuff.
<FIQ> with less annoying things
<Bluescreen> But what's more, Soviet5lo even deliberately removes good features! :(
<FIQ> and less stealing monsters
<FIQ> but there's still a lot
<FIQ> Soviet5lo intends to tone it done
<Bluescreen> Basically, slashthem is slex without all the stuff that makes slex worth playing.
<FIQ> but I think he hasn't yet
<Khor> Bluescreen: You know that sentence made me want ro play more dont you?
<sk_> hmm. who is rogues nemesis?

<aero2600> Whoa.. why does a potion of oil cost so much?
<Eidolos> Did you apply-test in the store?
<aero2600> Nope.
<Eidolos> Shks really screw you over when you light up in the store.
<Eidolos> "Usage fee! Yendorian fuel tax! Oh, and you owe me full price of the potion IN ADDITION MWA HA HA"
<Eidolos> This game hates me
<cdi> what happened?
<Eidolos> It's showering me with awesome stuff
<cdi> And it hates you how?
<Eidolos> now if I end up ascending people will just say "well of course he ascended, even ben could've ascended _that_ one"
<cdi> now now. We wouldn't say that
<Eidolos> anselmus will :)
<cdi> "even ari could've ascended _that_ one" would be more likely.
<runcible> anselmus whines no matter what
<Eidolos> :)
* stumbly leaves a tube of preparation H with an anonymous note for anselmus.
< Inkoate> sometimes the rng just doesn't seem to be on your side
< Thyra> Yeah, usually when you're playing Nethack. ;)
* Exedor slips on a +5 ring of adornment...

< mrivan> I have my own: _
* Barbie gets angry and curses lorimer.
< Cheapy|> dtype! oh fearless creator of sourceforge!
< dtype> ah, the sourceforge. i think perhaps nethack has a bit more purity though. ;)
< Cheapy|> you don't see succubi running around sourceforge though
< dtype> work, not vaca, although i've taken the opportunity to introduce myself to the local women
< Eidolos> NetHack and women mix about as well as, well, I'm sure you see where I'm going with this.
< dtype> i haven't mentioned nethack to any of the local women. I think I'll keep it that way. heh.
