To contact me, edit my talk page, message TjrWiz on freenode IRC, or send mail to tilminator at Gmail. I don't use my real-name for NetHack because Google needs to find my professional life only.
I am not perfect. I especially appreciate if you make my wording clearer or more newbie-friendly while retaining the precision. Special thanks to all those proofreading my edits.

Ascensions
I specialize in wizards because I like magic. (Edits will reflect this.)

2010-06-14: First ascension on a public server, an 8-conduct pacifist, see the ascension post. (in-game notes)
2009-07-25: My latest ascension is an atheist, pacifist, weaponless, wishless, genocide-less, polyself-less, neutral human wizard. Elbereth smiled often - over 1600 acts of literacy. Several polymorphed or charmed vampire lords kept me from starving after the initial Sokoban dive and mine town. The starting magic marker allowed me to create silver scale mail and a spellbook of polymorph. Getting able to cast that was not easy - alchemy, a helm of brilliance in a shop, and a handwritten book of knock helped here. In total, I polymorphed 6030 items, most of them attempts to make ordinary armor magical. Finally, a helm of opposite alignment gave me enough alignment to go on the quest. Next, I farmed for an archon in Vlad's tower and fully kitted it out (+7 Excalibur, all possible magical armor, except no cornuthaum for magic cancellation). The rest was easy. I don't think I ever used conflict, I got the ring only right before the ascension run.
Adminship
- You offer the Amulet of Yendor to NetHackWiki.
- An invisible choir sings, and you are bathed in radiance.
- The voice of ZeroOne booms out: "Congratulations, mortal!"
- "In return to thy service, I grant thee the gift of Adminship!"
- You ascend to the status of Demigod...
