DeathOnAStick is a NetHack player. He is famous in the NetHack community for their year-and-a-half-long game on nethack.alt.org, from 2004-04-17 to 2005-11-27. He spent much of this time arduously polypiling rocks into gems and collecting pet giants to carry the abundant bags of gems for him.
After killing the Wizard of Yendor on dungeon level 1, he drank a potion of gain level found on its corpse. It was cursed, as it turned out.
Upon reaching the Plane of Earth, he desperately checked his inventory, and indeed he was carrying no gems. At this point, he went idle for 38 seconds. A few of his entourage of giants had been close enough to be dragged into the Planes with him, but they were either killed off or left behind at the inter-plane portals. Ultimately, the only gems DeathOnAStick had at his ascension were 2 dilithium crystals.
He tried again years later, ascending after 405 hours on August 16, 2010 with over 8,000 gems.
