    I'm not sure whether I really finished clearing it.

    I just did some digging to clear a pile of rubble:

    'You have removed the rubble.
    You have found something!
    You see 13 Rounded Pebbles (1d2) (+0+0).'

    I'm not sure whether this really counts as clearing the rubble, or if it does, how I even noticed these pebbles when I cleared it.

      Or that it took your 50 turns to clear 13 pebbles

          You hit Lugdush, the Uruk. It was a great hit!
          You have slain Lugdush, the Uruk.
          Lugdush, the Uruk is no longer afraid.

            The sling you get in reward is sure to be useful.

              A funny thought occurred to me. If you don't kill Farmer Maggot before the endgame, does he get summoned by Morgoth?

              I was thinking of sparing him this game but I really needed a good drop, and he provided a shield of elvenkind that was quite useful at the time.
              Oh you icky things, don't you know you're driving your mamas and papas insane…

                I grinned on this one:
                Code:
                You have a scroll titled "veto me".
                You have no curses to remove. 
                You have a scroll of *Remove curse*.
                I was really hoping the name would be apropos. Of course the old *curse weapon* would be better.

                  No. Not ever. Even in older versions when you might get lucky with a unique troll and his entourage, Farmer Maggot was impossible. In more recent versions, you can't get weaker uniques at all.

                    That's probably for the best. I was imagining poor old Farmer Maggot, suddenly summoned to DL100 with a black reaver and a demilich or something, accosting a player by asking if they'd seen his dogs and everyone else just thinking, geez, Morgoth, where did you find this guy?

                      This happened in 4.2.1. Weird but makes sense.

                        Love the death message for this!
                        I think I might frame this YASD.

                          Ouch! I guess you were near an Orc pit.

                            Kobolds actually, or there were an unreasonable amount of them roaming around the level!
