Lol. "Mrs"? Ingwe not Inge. Have you not yet found the "Pendant of Ingwe" in the game? Ingwe, full name Ingwe Ingweron, was King of the Vanyar in Valinor, High King of all the Elves, in Tolkien lore.
As for the Guide, sure, feel free to bounce ideas off me. Though, I'm still undecided about a guide. I certainly believe a better tutorial is needed for new players to make the game easier to pick up, but I also find that one of the beauties of Angband is that there are so many ways to play and many paths to victory. I don't think a guide should be laying out a formula for winning. There are many formulas. My biggest leaps forward in playing the game were: 1. Watching all of Fizzix's "Let's Play Angband" videos on YouTube; 2. Playing the Competition where Frodo started out with the One Ring from day 1; and 3. Taking up MattB's challenge and using only fists to win the game (Check out "Ronda" in my ladder characters). Currently, I'm on a mission to post a winner in every race/class combination, which explains all the recent characters.
