Drunk

[breeolson]

Does anything change when you are drunk?
New challenge game:
Alcoholic man.

I think I remember reading in the manual that speed reduces

[Dudley]

And i remember reading somewhere that it's bad for reading spellbooks

Can't really base a challenge game on it since it's very hard to sustain Drunk status for an extended period of time. Though I guess you can add a roleplaying restriction to always drink booze immediately when found and never use it for anything else.

The main challenge of such a game would be sitting through the many, many, many iterations of "talk to Torgall - answer 'y'es to buy an ale - listen to the boring rumour - chat again" ad nauseam.

This is the only way i know to get drunk for extended periods of time and i don't know how long the drunkness lasts; not very long per drink, and while it appears to be cumulative (you get drunk for longer if you buy more ale), about a hundred ales appeared to last for barely over thousand turns.

At least Torgall never seems to tell you that you've had enough for one evening.

[Silfir]

Does his ale satiate? If so, you should be able to lock him in a corner using wands of door creation, prevent others from reaching any square next to you with more doors, and write a script that alternates "C" and "y" until you run out of gold.

[Maul]

The question is, though, why bother?

[Soirana]

iirc, in original challenge player should be drunk also... that one i understand.

dwarf barbarian rolled on 12/31 should get, maybe, 12 boozes,
could quaff enough to make it to beggarville, but it's too hard
to gen them

For bonus points, be drunk in real life as well as in game.
