    Comp 231

    After a day's rest, a segue into a quick competition from 2.9.3 with the same class, so we can admire the distance.

    Since 2.9.3 doesn't include turncounts in the dumps (and you did already say that this comp wouldn't be based on turncount), what are the stipulations for this comp? Winner with least XP, or most XP if no winners?
    The Complainer worries about the lack of activity here these days.

          Is there a way to fire my bow with less keypresses? So far it's f, choose arrow, choose target.

          Very pleased that 'n' is a feature in this version(!!) as I've recently started using it regularly in my games.

              Not available in 2.9.3

              keymaps are however. You can map 'h' to mean 'fa\r*t' for ease of shooting things.

                That is a terrific keymap. The jokes just write themselves.

                  Time limit seems short for oldband. Was this deliberate? Would like to play & not sure I'll have much time.

                    So how should the ladder be ordering, then? Because I don't think it is.

                      Nah, it's fine. Clouded deserves to be in the last place for having the nerve to collect 15x EXP than rest of the players put together

                            Go into lib/pref and delete or change the name of font-win.prf as that's what's setting the special character for floor. If you want to keep solid walls then you can instead edit that file and comment out the line after "Floors (white / centered dot)".
