Signing posts

Just a heads up: if you end a post on a talk page with four tildes (~~~~), then it'll automatically create a signature that includes links to your profile and talk page, as well as a timestamp of when you posted. That's generally the preferred way to sign posts here, though I appreciate you putting your name after your post on Talk:Summon Lightning Spire. --spudwalt (talk) 19:53, 8 August 2020 (CEST)

DCSS Bugs and Where to Report Them

Hi! I checked the game where your char was chain-paralyzed by floating eyes. Your morgue shows that you got at least a turn of immunity after each paralysis. The problem was not with the floating eyes, but with the auto-explore trying to restore your MPs while next to an eye of draining. This is a bug, so I reported it here: https://crawl.develz.org/mantis/view.php?id=12371

By the way, it's better to use bug trackers, Mantis or GitHub, when you get something like this. The chance that the devs notice your problem if you post it in this wiki is pretty low :). Ge0ff (talk) 15:21, 7 October 2020 (CEST)

Updating articles with unknown information

In your update to the Eringya's Noxious Bog article, you said:
A Staff of Olgreb and the poison immunity it confers to you may still make you immune - please update this article when you had a chance to try it out.

If you don't know how something works, ask a question on the article's Talk page instead of updating an article with potentially incorrect information. (Incidentally, the Staff of Olgreb does not provide immunity to bogs -- they still damage creatures that are immune to poison, but to a lesser degree than poison-resistant creatures.)

If you download the offline version of Dungeon Crawl, you can enter Wizard Mode by hitting &; this is essentially a debug mode that gives you control over your character and the dungeon around you. This can be used to test things (like, for example, the interaction between bogs and the Staff of Olgreb) in order to provide accurate information to the wiki.

Thanks for continuing to help with the updates! --spudwalt (talk) 20:44, 15 January 2021 (CET)

Okido - thanks for the tip. Will heed your advice going forward while continuing to update the Wiki.
