Hi fellow hackers! I'm jmst on nethack.alt.org, and an admin here.

What I'm up to

I'm happy with the way the wiki is going - lots of good people are adding good stuff. My vision is for Wikihack to be a Total Spoiler - a one-stop repository of all of humanity's knowledge of NetHack - as well as a venue for an emerging field of scholarly NetHack analysis :-) My secret desire is that it one day becomes bigger than Wikipedia.

2006/09/15: Travelling until next Tuesday. Tata for now!

2006/08/05: On a redirection binge. Trying to pre-empt duplicate articles.

Previously...

The weather has been too nice for ASCII this week, but the subsequent thunderstorms finally drove me back inside and I'm planning to ascend a rather bedraggled Monk.

Result: he died on the thrice-accursed Plane of Air! Moral: Defence is only half the equation: you've got to be able to kill 'em. --Jayt 19:08, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

Old stuff

Completeness

Here are my thoughts on completeness
