So far it's my second illiterate win and first win where I didn't use any methods of corruption removal. I think this was my fastest win so far (in game turns). Also no wishes were generated in this game.

There's really not much to say about this game.
Only good stable herb farms were in the big room but that wasn't problem since I got cloak of invisibility from Waldenbrook. With some stomafillia I could get precrowning and got Purifier which turned out to be quite nice weapon for most of the game.
In ToEF I had to rely on Crown of Science for fire immunity (had only elemental gauntlets so I took 2 damage every 2-3 turns) but it went down easily.
Maybe the biggest problem was getting ring of the high kings because I couldn't find wand of cold anywhere... Until I remembered that there are 2 in Barnabas' shop...
And then rest was pretty straightforward after I got crowned (couldn't save Khelavaster so Ultra was out anyway) with Vanquisher.
I had only 4 (or maybe 5) corruptions before D:50 and rest were gained from various monsters in there.

So you finished without ever reading a scroll, without killing a cat, without receiving one wish, AND without corruption removal.. My hat`s off to you, sir.

Pretty impressive. That also means you had no way of identifying items without equipping them. Now add no wands and no altars to that list :P.

Items can be identified also by selling them in shop and waiting. Also I know plenty of different ways to identify some certain items (especially some of the most useful items).
