 ** But I forgot gold detection scrolls.  I nearly died on Air before finding it, just from elementals -- and somehow, I hadn't collected even one wand of teleporting!  I thought it wouldn't be a problem on fire, which is usually so easy -- =oL and =oC and let the monsters find it for you.  But they didn't.  Eventually I was surrounded by 40 or so elementals, pit fiends, and salamanders, all pounding away both at me and each other, so I took off the ring of levitation, fought my way through them, stepped... uh-oh.  Into lava.
 ** Well, shit.  I immediately put the ring back on.  "You're still stuck in the lava," the game told me.  I broke a wand of cold. The lava cools and turns to rock!  So I'm not sinking any further.  But I was, sadly, still stuck in the lava.  I tried applying my pickaxe to dig myself out. "You are floating high above the ground," the game told me.

 ** It seemed like it was going to be the end of the world before I managed a tourist.  Luckily, the Mayans mis-prognosticated that one.  I started this one several months ago, got distracted working on a masters thesis, and finally came back to finish it off.  Tourists are hard; it's hard to damage people -- I used a mattock for an awful long time before I got altar-camping nice and efficiently.  I finally worked up to a +4 Magicbane and a +6 silver saber, and then I felt ok.  This was the first time I got the castle wand without having found genocide first -- so I actually had to do combat with an arch-lich and a mind-flayer.  First three wishes were SDSM, genocide, and a magic marker for more genocides :)
 ** The traditional 13 genocides -- h, L, and R. 2484 creatures vanished, and I do not apologize for farming for several thousand turns.  I had a friendly altar, several bags of tricks, and a blessed PYEC -- and I *still* never found a means of levitation; I had to burn a wish for the ring when the spell let me down on the Plane of Air. (Only got six Nazguls... one of these days I'll get the complete set.)
