The Complete NetHack Acronym and Abbreviation List
|
||
|
====================================================
|
||
|
|
||
|
originally by Satoshi Asami (asami@cs.berkeley.edu),
|
||
|
with some additions by Boudewijn Wayers (kroisos@win.tue.nl)
|
||
|
and a lot by Adam Dawes (Adam@beachyhd.demon.co.uk).
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
Nethack, being the addictive game that it is, obviously leaves the player
|
||
|
vastly less time to write messages for newsgroups than he would otherwise
|
||
|
have. As a result of this, the rec.games.roguelike.nethack newsgroup is
|
||
|
full of cryptic looking acronyms and abbreviations.
|
||
|
|
||
|
This spoiler contains a list of all the more popular (and some of the less
|
||
|
popular) acronyms that you might find on your journey through the
|
||
|
newsgroup.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The following convention has become popular amongst many of the
|
||
|
rec.games.roguelike.nethack inhabitants for abbreviations: the symbol used
|
||
|
within the game to represent the object proceeds the abbreviation to make
|
||
|
things clearer. So for example, a potion of confusion would be abbreviated
|
||
|
to "!PoC". Also, a lowercase 'b' or 'c' may sometimes be added to the start
|
||
|
to indicate blessed/cursed status. For example, 'b?SoG' might be used to
|
||
|
indicate a blessed scroll of genocide.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Good luck!
