Regular honor and ADOM honor are different sets of rules.
For regular honor, I have 10 rules.
For ADOM honor, I have one- do not save scum.
If someone won with a candle GE Wizard with stairhop, dragon and casino gold, piety overflow, ring wish engine, banshee in forest, gremlin bomb, kick robbing, and ring of weakness, it would not be dishonorable- but it would be unimpressive.
Conversely, a zen, illiterate, ultra, paragon of order HE thief would be amazing, but not more honorable.
