[net.games.rogue] Rogue help requested

sysred (10/08/82)

Here's the scenario:

I'm at level ten, fighting with a once-enhanced two-handed
sword, 70+ hp, 10 exp and 3 strength.  I have 3 rations
of food, a ring of slow digestion on each hand, and the
monster generation rate appears to be one new monster
every 25-50 turns.

I've been stting on top of the exit now for quite a while,
dispatching monsters as they poke up their heads in an
attempt to raise my exp level as high as possible.  Occasional
encounters with ants have dropped my strength level to 3
(no restore strength potions available...rats!).

Is it worth the time to stay here (apparently as long as I
want - I've been here long enough to go from exp 8 to exp
10 and haven't gotten hungry yet), or should I proceed?
Anyone else with similar experiences?
