    Tomorrow I have a new 8-man team for a D&D game. If my modem holds. About two weeks ago the surge protector gave its life with squawking fizzling sparks and smoke, waking me up in the morning. I keep thinking my modem is fried. Well, half fried. Two of the 8 downstreams are dead and a third one is fluxing back and forth something fierce. I called timewarner and they said "your modem is fine, it's noise on the line, possibly a short in the house somewhere (which really shouldn't be possible, as we've had three electricians in the house in the past two weeks and a new main breaker installed, though the wiring elsewhere is still 1950s).

    Last time they came out here it turns out the house was producing voltage and the tech got shocked touching the aluminum siding (almost had internet cut then and there) until we installed a new groundwire (which almost got stolen, twice). Internet has slowed to beyond a crawl for me, so I'm hoping the modem holds.

    So many deaths in the mines. So little time.

    I need to get back into nethack. It's been a while. What race/class combo do you usually run?

    I've beaten the game on a valkyrie. Right now I'm trying out the game as a human rogue.

    I've never played Nethack – but I've been thinking about trying Brogue soon, when I've got less on my plate. Read an article or blogpost about how the map generation works, looked quite interesting for that reason alone, and I've had the tab open as a reminder since then.

    I've never beaten the game, but I've usually done pretty well with valkyries and wizards. Orc barbarian is a favorite of mine, and the handful of times I've played a rogue it was pretty fun. It's always nice to see something else die from poison for once.

    Brogue is a lot of fun. Watch out for eels.

    Crap.
    Now I want to start playing Nethack, but I know from my past experiments with Dwarf Fortress I don't do well when using ASCII graphics (or any non-graphical interface, really)
    That's all I can think of, at any rate.

    I prefer ADOM to Nethack. The Steam version of ADOM is beautifully done.

    Beaten Nethack on a Valkyrie, but I tend to play one class to the avoidance of all others.

    You can get graphic tile front ends for Nethack that transform it from eye-bleedingly ugly to just plain ugly, you might want to try one of those? Or there are more attractive roguelikes out there--Dungeons of Dredmor, for example.

    Me too. And I prefer ASCII to tiles anytime . Oh, how I long for the days when my 14th level ranger died of starvation while fighting with pack of werejackals...who summoned more jackals and more jackals... I think it was around 179 killed jackals when we were finished... even ate 2 loaves of bread during the fight...

    Or the one time my friend decided to try out troll monk... ate everything he killed. Including the poisonous imp...

    Is Dungeons of Dredmore as... detailed?
    That's all I can think of, at any rate.

    While I don't have any strong preferences, I love how my mind just adapts to ASCII graphics to the points where I have revelations about how incomprehensibly cluttered my dwarf fortresses look to normal people.

    I don't think anything is going to have as much detail as a game that was developed over the course of 16 years, but Dredmor is a fun enough little romp.

    Hey, nethack's ascii graphics aren't that ugly.

    Summoning monsters in ADOM can get a little out of hand. I remember running into a room full of werewolf lords and not being able to get away before the dungeon level started to fill up with werewolves (and then regular wolves, once I stopped being able to kill the werewolves fast enough). In fairness, I probably should've ran immediately.
