What do you want to wield?

O - a cockatrice corpse

You hear some noises in the distance.

@: "Huh... I wonder what those newts are doing."

You hear a loud click.

@: "Wait, what the hell is that!?"

No, they only become a newt boulder AFTER you stone them with the cockatrice corpse.

Why aren't the doors +'s?

It's missing the obligatory "The newts turn to flee!" pseudo-game-message. And the corridor from the open door. And the open doors are the wrong symbols anyway. And the newt boulder ... well, I guess I can't complain about that. 0 > ` for boulders!
#4	Quint	Sat, 6 Feb 2010 06:21:22
Yeah, I like 0 for boulders too.
#5	Sorceror	Sat, 6 Feb 2010 12:27:12
Oh yeah, Quint? Well, I like 8 for boulders! :P

Anyone know what happened earlier to alt.org?
#7	Sorceror	Sat, 6 Feb 2010 16:01:53
#6: it was apparently a DNS/registrar change that resulted in the old IP getting cybersquatted (presumably by the old registrar, which might have something to do with the changeover).
#8	Anonymous	Sat, 6 Feb 2010 18:36:08
Ah. BTW, why can I not send messages on Freenode #nethack about this?
#9	Sorceror	Sat, 6 Feb 2010 21:24:16
#8: That's a good question. Why can't you?

"lolwut"

I just got the message that I couldn't send messages on the channel. It wasn't a problem with my IRC client (Konversation), because it works on another IRC server correctly.
#12	Sorceror	Mon, 8 Feb 2010 00:07:05
Well, this is not tech support.
#13	canidae	Mon, 8 Feb 2010 11:12:48
Oh yeah, this is sooo much better than old people jokes ;) Get off my lawn!
#14	Anonymous	Mon, 8 Feb 2010 11:21:05
@Anonymous: You need to register on Freenode to send to #nethack; for some reason, it's marked registered-users-only.
#15	Anonymous	Mon, 8 Feb 2010 17:43:40
Ah, that was the problem. Thank you guys!

You got the door symbols mixed up, and the joke itself isn't very funny. P.
