It was fun to try, but I didn't get far:
156790 Petzl, kamikazed by a veteran kamikaze dwarf of scabies in gloomy cave level 12
Description:
Well, first level after portal wasn't that bad, but it was mainly because Petzl had huge stats. I bet it took many hours to make it and I killed the character in less than two hours. Problems started in second level after portal. There was this room full of mages and those damn mystic dark frogs. I teleported in there, but most of the wands broke (was there acid rain wand in other box?). I polymorphed into an orc general and after that most of my stuff teleported away, so I had to go hunt them back. When I finally found Justifier again (one of the zombies had equipped it) I started to kill all the mages and mystic dark frogs. After I had cleaned most of this cave level I had only one wand of teleportation. I had used already two life savings and I polymorphed back into my normal form. I found one scroll of wishing and wished another life saving. After that I moved into a third level after portal and this level started to be too much for me. I died before with some dwarfs and last death was when I teleported into one of the rooms and tried to tame mages. I got only one mage on my side and soon after that my ring of invisibility and and amulet of ESP dissapeared. I equipped another amulet of ESP just to see veteran kamikaze dwarf of Scapies exploding near me...
I hope others will get further, but it was nice to see some new levels.

Can I try this or is it only for those who have beaten the game? I have never been further than in GC 7 so I would like to see what it looks like later. I know it would be probably possible with wizardmode, but I think it takes all the fun out of game.

I'm suprised so many voted for hedgehogs. I haven't had much problems with them. Magpies are the most annoying, because they always take my wand of teleportation. That is why I usually carry one gold stone with me so that magpies take it instead of my wands.

x) That third one is hilarious... And no, we didn't get angry. Asking is not only accepted, but adviced.
Thanks, I have hundreds of questions...
Just kidding, but if something comes in my mind I will ask it.

I hope I didn't get you angry with my questions. Thanks for your patient answeres and I try to read all the topics when I have more time. Okay, I accidently deleted Ivan and highscores before and I'm sure I had some better deaths, but here is some I have had recently:
I had cloak of invisibility when I stepped into GC 6. Level was full of nasty golems and other hard enemies so I decided to get into GC 7 as soon as possible. Suddenly I saw veteran kamikaze dwarf of mellis, but of course it couldn't see me. Then suddenly electric burst ripped the cloak in pieces and I was visible again. Dwarf was still two steps away from me, so I tried to zap it with wand of striking which I had used to kill Enner. Of course it didnt work anymore. One step and I would be dead but I had wand of teleport which I had also used couple of times. I could have applied it, but no I had to zap dwarf and yeah nothing happened...
My most horrible death in drawen minefield was when I went there with two mistresses. I had clone too, but I left it in level before. I thought he can survive since he is the "original". Anyway first mistress hit the mine pretty close the exit and died. Me and the another mistress continued deeper. My ring of searching found mine, but I didn't step away from it, I decided to go past it. Of course damn mistress stepped on mine. Suprisingly I was still alive after explosion, but my HP was low. I remembered seeing bottle of healing liquid before and went back. I thought I was lucky when I got next to healing liquid bottle without encountering more mines/enemies. I stepped in same square with bottle so that I could have drinked it, but of course there had to be one more mine...
One of my many polymorphing deaths was when I polymorphed rocks into better stuff. Wand didn't zap anymore, so I decided to break it. First I used wand of fireballs with walls to get more stuff to polymorph. I stepped middle of rocks and breaked the wand of polymorphing. I polymorphed into a large spider and was so suprised that I accidently stepped one step right. Broken bottle of poison wouldn't have caused any problem to me in my normal form, but to spider it was deadly.

Thanks, this must be the warmest welcome I have ever gotten in any forum.
I haven't ever thought about taming that frog, but it might actually be easier than killing it. Hmm, I didn't know you can detect enemies with detect material scroll. I always use it finding mines. Does it work with Enner beast and named enemies like Rondol or Guugzamesh too?
I'm usually too greedy and I sell my extra amulets of ESP and rings of infravision. I guess I have to start saving them, although I have never had 30 intelligence in GC7, if I haven't polymorphed to something more intelligent. Vermis is my favorite named weapon, but I didn't know you can get permatelecontrol from blindogs. I seem to have lot to learn yet.

Kiitos
I should probably post another topic, but could you give me some tips to beat gloomy cave 7. That mystic dark frog gets on my nerves. It always teleports my best equipment away. Got so close today but I hadn't any attack-wands. First it teleported my both flaming swords away and I had no other lightsources or weapons anymore, so I had to teleport away. I tryed to reach it again later, but frog killed me with spell. Also Slob how you have beated the game so many times? You must have Valpurus on your side.

Thanks Capristo.
So the belt of levitation made game easier, although it spawned harder enemies. I got only to gloomy gave 5. I found enner beast easily, but got to zap him only one time with striking and then I lost consciousness and died. Only named enemy that I killed was Rondol, so nothing special this time. But, I will definitely use this tactic again.
By the way did anyone else had problems to get in the forums earlier?

I have played Ivan already for sometime. It was christmas just after 0.50 had come out, was it now 2004 or 2005? I still play the game some times. Anyway I found these forums recently and thought that I might as well register in here. And thanks for the tip Slob, I first threw acid bottle at the door and then I left kiwis infront of door (kiwis in shop seem to be more fresh than bananas and sumowrestler doesn't seem to care about spoiled food). Acid dissolved Huang Mings another leg. After that I did my usual trick to get overfed. I left banana peels on banana growers way and after one of them died I ate him (It's cruel world. Eat or be eaten.) After this, it was very easy to beat Huang Ming (first time ever, which is pretty sad). So thanks again, although I'm pretty sure my character will suffer just another horrible death. Okay, I come back later. I know that my english may not be the best possible since I don't need it much, but I hope you are able to understand atleast some of this.
