At 82 deaths in the HS list, I try to get my character in and it won't let me. I kill off another 20 or so characters, and it still won't let me in.

I have 100 deaths now, so what's the deal? Does it not count the # of deaths after the character is created?

Only newly created characters will be able to enter the bug temple. All your saved chars won't be able to enter unless the high score had 100 entries upon creation.

it's not the high score that needs to have 100 deaths, 100 characters must have been created (the symbol in adom.cnt must have a ascii value of 100 or more, iirc 'd' has an ascii value of 100).

Also, just for the record, I don't find editing the adom.cnt -file anymore cheating than creating and instantly quitting 100 characters, it's only faster :)

Thanks. Looks like I'll be starting a new character then, those corpses are just too good to pass up.

Morio has a good point, that really isn't more cheaty. I'll remember that tip next time I need to "break-in" an Adom game.
