Goal
My goal is for the lowest score on [1] to be an ascension. If this page helps more players ascend more, that would be great!

Techniques
Early Game
Use a bag
Start using a bag as soon as you can. A bag protects items from damage and theft.
First use your pet or an altar to curse-test the bag. If the bag is cursed, then you have to price-id it. A bag that sells for $1 is a sack and you can safely use it even if it is cursed. A unidentified bag that sells for more than $1 is not safe to use if it is cursed.
If you find a noncursed bag, put it on the ground and loot it. If the bag is a bag of tricks, it will bite you for 1d10 damage. You cannot use a bag of tricks to keep your items in, although you can use it for other things later.
Set up a stash
Set up a stash as soon as you find a large box or a chest that you can open. Bring your unidentified items to your stash. You can protect your stash by rolling a boulder on it when you are not using it.
You can have more than one stash. Later on, after you have a noncursed bag of holding, you can consolidate stashes.
Dig behind iron bars
If you see iron bars, and you have a digging tool, then dig around the bars. You will find a scroll behind the bars. There may be other items along with the scroll. The scroll (or one of the scrolls) is a scroll of teleportation, a very handy escape item.
