It appears the Mangband.org ladder and map screenshot of town and surrounding wilderness are not updating. I would assume other features of a similar nature like char deaths etc are not updating. Based on timing I'm guessing this started when the server and webpage lost service for awhile last week....

I thought the deal was that if you have res sound, you won't get knocked out by melee? I had typed out a nice response to this, and per usual the board required me to sign in twice in a row and then spit me back to the index page, so I lost everything I had written. Getting a little sick of this. T...

Prompted by my recent death to a Grand Master Mystic (http://www.mangband.org/Main/HighScoreChart?v=1.1.2?dump=Drunk-4333715776) I figured I'd share the insight I've gotten from this event. For the edification of others the relevant spoiler info can be found below. The important takeaway is that an ...

Dump here: http://www.mangband.org/Main/HighScoreChart?v=1.1.2?dump=Drunk-4333715776 I was fighting a grand master mystic for the first (and last) time. I was quickly surprised to find myself chain stunned, followed by knocked out. Unable to do anything I sat and watched my life be slowly whittled a...

I purchased a house for all my new stuff, purposely putting on an Ammy of Charisma +6 to buy the house at a cheaper price. I went to sell my old smaller house and out of curiosity took the amulet off to see how much less it sold for; to my surprise it actually sold for more! Perhaps this is intended...

It seems like this has changed in the past with Angband, but I was unsure what is true in Mangband: Does Chaos resistance also cover Confusion resistance? Will it also prevent being confused? I tried wearing an item with Chaos res, but saw no change to my Confusion res on the character sheet.

Not sure if I'm the only person to notice this, but there is a "ghost" house in 1S,1E. The door is left of center in sector [2,1] and says it costs 2.3 million. It has no walls, just a door. If I had 2.3 million to throwaway, I'd buy it just to see what happens, heh. Was the map generated that way, ...

So I bought a weapon of *Slay Evil* from 3, and quickly discovered it had ESP on it. I've played off and on for years now, so I knew what it was when I saw it, but I can't remember what limitations it has with regards to what it detects. I noticed that Detect Evil will detect some monsters it doesn'...

So I was semi-distracted on the phone and got killed on 6350 by a skull druj summoning time hounds on me, and not reacting quick enough. By dying I lost the king flag, but Morgoth didn't respawn, so now I can't wield Grond. Can I no longer retire, only suicide?

My Dwarf Priest killed Morgoth this morning: http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2727/4497625083_ec264412b0_b.jpg I used no consumables of any kind, just cast the spell Heal. All I did was stand next to him in a maze vault and auto-attack, with the occasional Heal cast. It was more spontaneous then anyth...

My priest on Cheezband is itching to kill Morgoth, but I have no clue how to go about this. Any tips or comments would be appreciated.

Cheddar, 50 Dwarf Priest Up until last night I was the proud owner of a 187 slot mansion on the east edge of 1E, filled with approximately 140 items. I logged in today only to find that all of 1E has turned into a swamp. My house was gone, and there lay all 140 items in a roughly square patch on the...

I agree, there's been numerous times where I've run in to him and was surprised. All this leads to is me being paranoid about flashy "d"s and constantly wasting time 'l'ooking. Same thing with Gorlim, Betrayer of Barahir to a lesser extent.

I had cleared the left half of the vault "Concentricity" on 2000ft and only had the upper left two "8" spaces to clear, one of which contained Tselakus. I lured him out into the hall which I had filled with runes of protection to prevent summoning. Sadly I failed to notice he casts darkness storms, ...

Awesome! I'll have to dive deeper and try and see if I can find something fun.
