Pet killing aligned priest

borek.lupome...@gmail.com (Borek Lupoměský) — Tue, 01 Dec 2009 10:07:12 UT

Does anyone know what happens, when pet kills aligned priest in a
temple? Especially in the case when I already bought protection. I my
current game I have pet purple worm that instakills everything in
sight, so the idea is the buy all the protection, let the pet kill the
priest, grab all his gold and go buy more protection elsewhere.

At the top of the lowest scoring ascensions on NAO, Pug is listed with
a score of -2,145,868,906. I have a feeling this isn't recognized as
an official low scoring ascension, as it only appears up there
occasionally. Perhaps you could purge it permanently.

Patching Nethack under Windows...

aspr...@yahoo.com (Adman) — Tue, 24 Nov 2009 17:25:30 UT

Ok, this is killing me.
Here's what I have:
1) A fresh copy of the Nethack source code.
2) The Visual Studio 2008 patch file from nethack.org.
3) A copy of patch.exe from the DJGPP FTP site. (patch version 2.5.9
or something like that).
In excruciating detail, how do I apply the patch?
I've basically tried this: patch -pX < VisualStudio2008patch.txt

So changes aren't really going to come as frequently as before, but I've
been able to steal a little bit of time. NAO is now running 0.6.2 of
Sporkhack again, after the dgamelaunch update, and the beta server is
still chugging along nicely, with over 18,500 games played as of today
(and 155 ascensions!).
