I have been using a "cheat sheet" posted by Andrew Klossner a while back which specifies the edibility of certain monsters and their magic properties when eaten. Just two corrections. I'm playing version 1.02, so if my comments are impertinant for 1.03, forgive me. 1) Andy states that if you eat an acid blob, you stop turning to stone. I've had a game just now wherein the cockatrice's hissing didn't turn me to stone, but touching it after killing it did. 2) Acid blobs *can* become tainted. I ate one that had been sitting for about 50-75 turns and was tombstoned for it. Does this fortune have anything to do with edibility? "Giving head to a long worm is like a long lasting reception." Good Luck to all, Eric Nyberg ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ CSNET: ehn0@gte-labs Eric H.
