He fell so far that he went to heaven by falling through the ceiling? Good one. |

The "dungeon variable" is actually the return code from the depth() function in dungeon.c: http://nethack.wikia.com/wiki/Dungeon.c#depth
I believe that it computes a sum of unsigned chars and returns a signed char. Thus, my guess is that the dungeon level should wrap from 127 to -128. (I am wrong, because below Gehennom there is no dungeon branch to contain the dungeon level to compute the depth from.) There might be a reason for 63 to -63 that I missed. |

Theoretically, somebody might typedef schar in include/config.h to a seven-bit type, but even then, the counter should wrap to -64, right? However, the non-appearance of the illiteracy challenge is correct, because in http://nicolaas.net/dudley/index.php?f=20070319, a P was (accidentally) written, so it's still excellent. :) |

Kernigh, you're right that the variable should have gone from 127 to -128. Dion pointed out the same thing and I agreed we should change it. Looks like the changes didn't make it into the comic, though. (And even the original numbers wouldn't work, since it should have been 63 to -64, right?) Oh well, sometimes DDINRNH. |

As far as illiteracy goes, I guess I took it for granted that Dudley wouldn't have been able to stick to it anyway. :) |

He should still be illiterate, because in nethack, he did not "write a P" but "Draw a ." That doesn't require one to write 'ingame' |

Since you wrapped the dungeon variable, you're in mode. Therefore the score list will not be checked. |
