Nethack - died a funny death.

So, I was playing some nethack today. My pet dog brought me a potato and dropped it at my feet. I was thinking "oh cool, thanks". So this is what happened next.

REST IN PEACE

That dog was an asshole
Anyone around here still play nethack, have any funny stories or deaths to tell?

I play Nethack! I've been playing for a few years. I can never get into higher levels. Most moves I was ever able to do was like 2000 or somewhere around there. I still think its a fun game though, I just wish I was better at it.

I haven't played in a few months, but it's still an awesome game !! ... I should start playing again !!! I like the fact that it's never the same.

I like to telnet to nethack.alt.org and just watch some of the really skilled players kick ass !!
