Hmmm, I might start putting my chars. on the highscores, I only found that recently (my what low perception). I just started playing 1.0, man is it easy, almost smells like WADOMF! Almost. here's the problem this char. of mine keeps starving every 20 moves literally! Is this normal? They aren't burdended or anything.

I have a lvl 27 grey elf elementalist, who has 2 parts of the trinity, one tough char., the only problem is how much food they eat. I found another pool today. on a pool lvl you usualy hear "splashing sounds".
My char. is wielding "Death's Final Touch" the emerald dagger they have very good things, currently I'm trying to get their alignment back to n=.

Discard some useless artifacts from your pack, then the food consumption can be greatly reduced.

IIRC artefacts increase food consumption only if you wear them.

Um the only artifacts they have are "death's final touch" and the "Ring of the Master Cat" those never caused any trouble for me.

Grats on the win, C! Did you notice that Florine has got INSANE score: 1 214 817 933! And it's exactly the same amount that she has experience, what's with that? Is there some sort of error somewhere?

Quite an accomplishment to get six times more points than any other post on the HoF!

BTW: What does this mean:

What do you mean by poisoning water in the casino?

This char is fake or cheated or something... or at least the final score. That is iMpOsSiBlE. So no more of my chars will be ever seen in HoF - it's not a place for them, I know a better one :P.

Hmm, now that you mention it this does look a tad suspisious (the second guy have more kills and more exp, granted you visited more place and used fewer turns, but I just can't get that to add up to 10 times higher score)...

There is a mismatch betwen the exp in flg and the listing, so are you sure you there isn't a typo in the regular score too?

Do you have the HIGSCORE file (the RAW binary score file that is) handy C, if so send it to me (jamydlan@online.no) so we can sort this out once and for all...

Nope I don't have it! My hardrive crashed again!
It was a typo (er maybe)
I think I found the problem though this is going to sound *very* stupid...
1.I thought the score was experience so I... don't know their experence!! Wait a minute is this it?...
Exp: 50/51,224,583 Cause I really don't know!
HELP (that was PATHETIC eh?)
2. I always hi Crtl-V and paste stuff, I must have had the score on there instead of the Exp, I just looked at F now and said "Holy ^#*& that isn't right!"
or maybe a mix of both 1&2. Because I e-mailed Nelie the score eariler before I submitted F.
I was thinking about e-mailing Jan, but he's found the prob., one less thing I have to do!
IT'S A TYPO, sorry folks!

I fixed the exp thing, but the regular score still confuses me, so I have temporarily put the char back behind the scenes (it's not deleted, not yet anyway).

Before this character the difference between the #1 and #12 chaos god was 5.302.668 points, AFTER this char the difference between the #1 and #2 chaos god is suddenly 1.185.566.275 points, yes that is 1,18 billion more points than the second guy!!), chaos gods typicaly score 4-5 million less points than regular wins because regular winners get theyr scores doubled a couple of times, yet this char beat the crap out of the best regular win...

It simply can't be right, I can't imagine what you did anything so extraordinary that you scored 41 times as much as the #2 ranked guy, even doubeling it wold be a big acomplishment...

You sure the score in the flg has not been edited in any way? Cause it's either than or some wierd bug in the score algoritm...

Don't you have any backup of the score file or the flg or the save file or anyting? Have you tried a undelete util?

It's just that without some sort of proof that you realy did get that score people will asume you have cheated (it's just to darn high) and that will reflect poorly on the HOF if I allow it to stand...


Speaking of wich, I seem to recall someone pointing out a couple of other characters (g16 was it?). I was busy at the time and completely forgot, anyone care to refresh my memory (I'll scarch thoug the form tomorow, but if anyone care to save me some time...)

Once I recived a negative score!
My theory
C was about to get into the negatives, that must have been like this
100 at start
-111 middle
1000000000 end
my theroy

I'm not trying to be unfair here...

It's just that when someone beat the previous #1 guy 41 times over, and have some errors in his report I'll have to have a little bit more proof than usual that it's legit...

Look at all the other halls, a score like that is COMPLEYELY unprecidented. The biggest injustice would be to let it pass without a second glance (wich admitedly I did untill otherd make me aware of it)...
