Combat comment

I don't know if you noticed, but I did leave a comment on User talk:Phol ende wodan/Combat system overhaul. It's not a bunch of minor things, but seems to me a major (but likely fixable) problem. --Truculent (talk) 07:56, 10 November 2017 (UTC)

3.6.1 updates

I can use that template, sure, but I'm not certain whether my edits are complete, since I don't have the time or knowledge to do a full source dive. I'm just scanning the readme and Sourceforge commits and confirming what I can from the source. Should I wait until more users have had a look before updating the template? --Darth l33t (talk) 15:45, 28 April 2018 (UTC)

Nah, if that were the case the templates would never get bumped at all. If there are inconsistencies discovered later, someone can fix them, but the nethack-361 template indicates that someone has looked at it with an eye to 3.6.1. --Phol ende wodan (talk) 15:47, 28 April 2018 (UTC)

Orcus

I've made some further changes, particularly reordering things to be, well, closer to the way I had them. If you disagree please feel free to change them further, or we could discuss them here - I say here because if we do it on Talk:Orcus we'll have endless rambling interjections.

One minor thing I'd add/change: it's better to mention digging as a way to get to the level below instead of levelporting, since this is generally a much more common resource. --Tone (talk) 15:10, 21 September 2019 (UTC)

I usually clear Gehennom upwards, so I suppose I think of that as the most common option (but on reflection that's just me). I've added the suggestion of digging down, though, since that's the easiest way to get from Orcustown to Orcustown+1. I should have thought of that; my mistake.

While I normally have no issue with using specific terms where possible, some of this set of alternatives seems awfully purple to the point that the phrase "said bookism" come to mind. --Umbire the Phantom (talk) 23:59, 2 March 2020 (UTC)

While (noun) -> Whiles (conjunction); normally (statistic distribution) -> usually (habit); issue (= something gone out) -> problem; purple -> proper. The former are soloicisms (solecisms): will (optative):shall (future); heterosexual (Hellenic-Latin):altersexual (Latin); gay:coy::queer:straiht; ==; fast:free::slow:swift; it (neuter):one (indefinite common):who (definite common):the player (definite common); away from:away till::froward:toward.

And your profile: rougelikes -> roguelikes; Nethack -> NetHack. Lysdexia (talk) 04:30, 3 March 2020 (UTC)

Absolutely none of that got through to you at all, cool. --Umbire the Phantom (talk) 04:32, 3 March 2020 (UTC)
