Before my eyes.
« on: July 11, 2007, 02:55:00 pm »
Efter only four days of playing, i start seeing dwarfs and DF rooms before my eyes as i am reading books or watching movies. :P

Oh about the bug. Might high addiction value of the game be a bug or unintentional side effect?

Bodypart names, creatures names in one easily overviewable place.

Oh my new (old) picture?

I'm pretty sure the addictiveness is a feature.

Try playing NetHack for a week or two. You'll start freaking out every time you see an email address.

Lol, try reading the nethack source code.
Better comments would be nice......

BTW, the reason theres a death message for EVERYTHING is that the function that does damage _MUST_ include a cause of death.

I'm certain some causes of death don't involve damage at all, though.

Such as the one you get for extincting your race while polymorphed into something else.

But they have to tell the game to kill you, so they include a cause of death. I think. Ill just check it.....

LOL, 3 Tshirt texts have comments saying where they sre from.
   "Don't Panic",            /* HHGTTG */
   "Furinkan High School Athletic Dept.",   /* Ranma 1/2 */
   "Hel-LOOO, Nurse!",         /* Animaniacs */

Well, they had to tell the game to kill the player too, so they included the cause of death.
