I also enjoy dnethack, notdnethack, and notnotdnethack for the drow female noble. Honorable mention goes to nh4 for being able to die to a newt or a kobold on turn 1. My least favorite by far is Fourk since I cannot play every role. 00:53 also I feel like a significant proportion of my changes to NetHack itself make it easier 00:53 I don't think there's such a thing as a 'too difficult' variant 00:54 for you 00:54 well, it comes down to "too difficult for what"? 00:54 lol that regen change made vanilla lategame way harder 00:54 for me it's not difficulty, it's how painful the game is to play 00:54 * tinklebear likes dnethack because you can start a samurai with polearm and knife, but doesn't like dnethack's hallucination effects on inventory 00:54 "too difficult for anyone to ascend" might be just about possible while keeping people interested in trying, but it would need really extensive changes or really significant changes 00:54 as long as the difficulty is fair and enjoyable to play with, you could make a variant 1000x harder than evilhack and I would play it 00:55 "too difficult for ais523 to enjoy" is much easier 00:55 i suspect nerfhack might be really difficult 00:55 we'll see. the changelog is massive 00:55 I have been watching nerfhack from the shadows and came to the same conclusion 00:56 Loggers_VIII: the regen change was meant to make lategame more difficult in the sense of needing more thought to beat reliably – I don't think it increases the difficulty to the point where a player who can beat the early game reliably can't beat the late game reliably, though 00:56 i think it'll be harder than vanilla but not evilhack hard 00:56 dunno 00:56 I missed nerfhack, somehow 00:56 it's not out yet 00:56 as did I 00:56 it's not released 00:56 <@d_i_s_p_e_r_s_e> The Splendor of Yendor has been formed and is accepting applications! 00:56 ais523: yeah, sounds about right. all it really does is make lategame go from "almost no thought" to "a decent amount of thought" required 00:57 what is this regen change of which you speak? 00:57 I am actually surprised how much of a difference fairly small changes make to Gehennom, like the regen change, or halving the potion drop rate 00:57 can't regen multiple hit points a turn 00:57 hothraxxa: in the 3.7 late game, your natural HP regeneration rate is lower 00:58 it becomes slower than 3.4.3/3.6 somewhere around xlvl 10, I think, and is generally slightly faster before then 00:58 ah. thanks 00:58 but the 3.4.3 regen rate shoots up really quickly around quest time, and by the time you reach Gehennom is fast enough to mostly make combat irrelevant 00:58 whereas the 3.7 regen rate doesn't 00:58 <@d_i_s_p_e_r_s_e> I ask every year, is there a team size limit in TNNT? 00:58 optional ludios-style one-level gehennom challenge branch with magic marker reward when 00:58 disperse: I believe it's 12 00:59 @d_i_s_p_e_r_s_e: yes, I can't remember what it is but there's definitely al imit 00:59 i've been playing vampires and they regenerate quickly. i was distressed playing tnnt beta and healing s`o damned slowly 00:59 <@d_i_s_p_e_r_s_e> Thanls Loggers, we're never close to that. 00:59 it is 12 00:59 my genius surprises even me 00:59 SPUER Genius 00:59 (sighs) 00:59 lol 00:59 lol 01:00 <@post163> $time 01:00 @post163: 2024-10-31 01:00:11 UTC. 2024 Tournament begins in 0d 22:59:48 01:00 I am just gonna send invites to every good player that signs up and hope for the best 01:00 ...though I don't even know most of these people :p 01:00 the inverse of the classic Junethack strategy of sending invites to every bad player who signs up :-D 01:00 (checks his invites) 01:01 pffft 01:01 junethack was fun this year 01:01 It was 01:01 * hothraxxa shakes fist at crunchbubba 01:01 I wasn't feeling it this year, unfortunately 01:01 lol 01:01 i wasnt either :/ 01:01 crunchninja 01:01 i couldnt even tell you what happened in junethack this year 01:01 I am not sure whether I'll participate in this year's TNNT, I am somewhat distracted with trying to figure out how to optimise ttyrecs 01:02 I wasn't either but I pretended I was :P 01:02 I have been doing so much research on terminals recently 01:03 (I did a lot of research on terminals about 10 years ago, too – I am repeating it except this time I might actually know what I'm doing) 01:03 <@post163> Long story short I played ~2/3 of all junethack games - so many that my clan leader asked me to leave temporarily. 01:03 You mean like old hardware terminals? vt220 etc? 01:03 Bleeko: the modern programs which emulate them, mostly 01:04 Ah 01:04 lots of information about the old terminals turns up in the process, especially because some of the modern programs try to emulate them to a degree that no longer makes sense 01:04 <@d_i_s_p_e_r_s_e> Were you glitching the Clan stats page? Integer overflow errors? 01:04 except that they simultaneously try to support UTF-8, which wasn't invented at the time 01:06 post163 played so many games that in the nefarious end I was getting timeout error on the clan page 01:07 utf8 was begotten, not made. it wasn't invented, it was discovered. back then they didn't know about the ☃ fundamental to being 01:09 <@d_i_s_p_e_r_s_e> The server couldn't stream that much data before the 30 second default timeout elapsed. 01:09 I vaguely remember UTF-8 being invente dfor use in Plan 9 01:10 "Good Sir Knight, thou hast been so valiant, so steadfast, so ... vigorous ... in thy labors." 01:10 "Allow us to bestow upon thee this voucher. Tis good for a three-day holiday in NOT-IN-THIS-CLANISTAN" 01:10 That's exactly correct ais523 01:10 and I am upset that the "there are multiple sequences that naively decode to the same character" bug wasn't fixed, because nowadays every UTF-8 decoder has to recognise and discard the redundant sequences so that people don't use them to sneak past filters 01:11 it's too late to fix it now 01:12 Demo, is that a snowman or a set of calipers? 01:13 "the fundamental to being" 01:15 * tinklebear looks it up, discovers it really is a snowman 01:15 I feel like the primary reason UTF-8 caught on is that the other variable-byte-length Unicode encodings were designed to be backwards-compatible with theory, whereas UTF-8 was designed to be backwards-compatible with practice and ignored the standards 01:16 anyway, I have been getting increasingly upset at the "keyboard → terminal → program" direction of terminal control codes (as opposed to "program → terminal → screen" which is slightly messy but salvageable) 01:17 the de-facto standard for keycodes a) violates the de-jure standards (which nobody implements), and b) is hopelessly and inherently ambiguous 01:21 -!- crunchbubba has quit [Quit: leaving] 01:27 -!- crunchbubba has joined #tnnt 01:29 -!- Furey has quit [Ping timeout: 256 seconds] 01:34 -!- qt has quit [Ping timeout: 252 seconds] 01:36 -!- Loggers_VIII has quit [Quit: Client closed] 01:39 -!- spleen has joined #tnnt 01:40 -!- Loggers_VIII has joined #tnnt 01:41 heh I saw a ref to VT220 old hardware up above 01:41 I recall playing on a VT100 01:42 -!- coffeebug has joined #tnnt 01:43 hey - just registered on hardfought and can ssh to the other servers (so my account's synced) but I can't log in to tnnt.org to make a clan - does that take longer to sync? 01:43 coffeebug: I think it can take up to 10 minutes or so 01:47 -!- efot99 has joined #tnnt 01:47 -!- efot99 has quit [Client Quit] 01:49 <[> what happens if I accept more than one clan invite? 01:50 -!- shadowcat has joined #tnnt 01:50 <[> (I joined a clan but there's still an "accept invite" button on the other invite) 01:50 all of the tnnt admins come to your house and take turns hitting you with a stick until you pay the 200 zorkmid indulgence fee and are forgiven 01:51 Even turns count for the first clan, odd turns count for the second one 01:52 <[> apparently the real answer is "Error: You can't join that clan because you're already in one" 01:52 programmers think of everything(tm) 01:54 the de-facto standard for keycodes a) violates the de-jure standards (which nobody implements), and b) is hopelessly and inherently ambiguous ← anyway, this is why Alt-combinations have never worked reliably on any tty-based implementation of NetHack, and some of the Ctrl-combinations are a litle flaky too 01:54 -!- Furey has joined #tnnt 01:56 -!- crunchbubba42 has quit [Quit: Ping timeout (120 seconds)] 01:56 -!- crunchbubba41 has joined #tnnt 02:00 -!- NetSysFire has quit [Quit: generic quit message] 02:01 I just created a clan "Only Orcs" and will invite anybody who wants to join. 02:01 -!- NetSysFire has joined #tnnt 02:02 what if they aren't an orc? 02:02 You can play non orcs if you want to.
