Do not play Adom while watching football in TV.

Haha. D:50, I was spamming magic missiles into one of the rooms, looked at TV, looked back at screen... something was wrong... looked at my fingers - pressed 8 instead of 7. Oh well. Too bad, yet another character dies in stupid way near the gate. The only thing I regret is that it would be my 1st win on server. Anyway, it was fun.

I see ADOM as the polar opposite of "casual games" - hence, I only play at home, with as little distractions and noise as possible. If you aren't focused on the game, you're bound to screw up. Similarly, when I feel I'm not paying the right quota of attention to what's going on, that's when I Shift+S and am done for the day, no matter how good conditions are or how much free time I have.

[mim]

It wasn't overconfidence and not being focused, just ~30th magic missile cast in a row. Hand slipped and PC's hp flipped
Btw it was so easy, I was nearly invincible (like most wizards are at that point), could have (and apparently should) just teleport next to Fisty and cast acid ball untill everything was dead, had 3 more wishes at hand and tons of magical and non-magical healing ready...
What's the lesson?
When you are invincible the only thing you should fear is your carelessness & clumsiness.
