Eidolos...
- organized the annual June NAO tournament.
- is rewriting from scratch FreeNode:#nethack's Rodney (bot) (and contributed a lot to the original Rodney).
- values highest his 4:03:09, 14595-turn ascension, described here on RGRN.
- maintains some fairly widely used menucolors on NAO: eidocolors
- coded nhbot.
- has a lot of NetHack-related scripts and things at [1]
- made two instructional ttyrecs about the drawbridge and defeating Master Kaen.
- has ascended twenty-seven times as of this writing: 11xWiz 7xMon 2xVal 1xBar 1xHea 1xKni 1xPri 1xRan 1xRog 1xSam 0xArc 0xCav 0xTou.
- posts on RGRN as Shawn M Moore (sometimes without that M).
- is very, very fond of Perl.
Wikihack Projects
Annotating source code
One of my unfinished projects here at Wikihack is to label each function name (and long comments and important structures) to help source divers and source annotaters. Some of the things I've learned are:
- Naming Sting/Orcrist while twoweaponing the new artifact in the second hand is handled correctly.
- do_name.c#dist_monname -- apparently the DevTeam anticipated the Astral call trick, but didn't handle it in all strings (do_name.c#line279 should use dist_monname over Monnam, I think).
- dokick.c#line9 -- Sasquatches get a kicking bonus!
- Overlay support is incredibly pervasive (and must be difficult to maintain).
- There's going to be a lot of work to do when the next version comes out!
International Eidolos Day
The 13th of August is International Eidolos Day, when we all watch Eidolos on NAO. It's frowned upon for other people to ascend on NAO on this date.
- A soldier ant killed me on the morning of Aug 13, ending my ascension streak (I did get three wizards in a row, though!), so International Eidolos Day is cancelled. Sorry! :)
