I have ascended every class in vanilla nethack (of course using spoilers, and admittedly the Healer was only due to an early wand of wishing), and have since moved on to SLASH'EM and sometimes Crawl.  Currently my goal is to ascend every class in SLASH'EM.  So far I have ascended several human Valkyries, including one genocideless (which is much harder in SLASH'EM, given the presence of so many new spellcasters), a Doppelganger Rogue (far, far too easy... Giant Shoggoth + Black Market + Rogue = Full ascension kit + Bat From Hell), and a wishless human Caveman (not particularly easy, although wishless conduct is in general easier in SLASH'EM than in vanilla).  The most interesting conduct I've achieved in vanilla is a couple of genocideless wizards and priests.

I have tried NAO a couple times but never really found it to my liking.  I used to just delete all bones files as soon as they were created (yes, that means ALL bones, including the archaeologist who got Grayswandir as a sacrifice gift and then got killed by a soldier ant), but I have just recently started using hearse for SLASH'EM, something that has so far been pretty good.

An update

I still actively play (local copies of) SLASH'EM, but I never made the leap to post-3.4.3 or any of its variants. Call me old-school. I could write a whole essay on why I didn't, but I feel like it would just come off as Yet Another Player Complaining That They Changed It And Now It Sucks, and that's not really something I feel like putting out into the world. If you enjoy the new versions, I mean this sincerely: good for you. I'm glad the devteam has made a product that will keep NetHack alive, rather than letting it slowly fade away. It just wasn't to my own personal taste (yes, I did try it).

At this point, my goal for this wiki is to make some edits about lore ("fluff"), where my lack of experience in 3.6+ won't be an issue. I might also edit some SLASH'EM articles, since that hasn't changed in the past decade.
