minor things but undocumented

I seem to remember a wand of death can kill you on bounce. Casting it yourself results in the message "your feet feell cold" or something like that. You can aim at yourself with 5 by the way - no need for bounce. No sure about death ray from wander of wonder...

[warheart]

Don't know about the wand, but I experimented myself with the self-deathray-killing when one of my chars (level 50, 5 orbs, in my way to close the door) accidentally missdirected the spell. Yes, I pressed 8 insted of 6, my most stupid death ever.

Cursed wand of wishing may not give a wish but still loses a charge when zapped.

If you try to use ring of djinni summoning in wilderness, the game says "Not here." for all other rings it says "Try to wear the -foo- to gain any effects.". :P

The time it takes to fletch missiles is always (time per missile)*(number of missiles made) where time per missile is 7 for arrows, 10 for quarrels and 5 for tiny quarrels. Level 18 ability of archers halves this time. (on failed attempt the time is most likely same except you don't really get any missiles.)

Amulet of life saving does not save you from dying for old age or corruption. Drinking a potion of youth on last turn before you die for old age (the turn where character info says Age: x (dead)) lowers your age but you will still die.
Drinking a potion of longevity on that last turn saves your life (and this is the only possible way that I know to survive if you have been already aged to death).

It takes shorter time to eat cursed food than uncursed or blessed food.

Maybe this is known: There is a lower experience limit for the dwarven quests. Don't know exactly what it is, but at least lvl6.

After which amount of gambling the big casino guards blocks the steps? I earned this game 5e5 and then 1.5e6 more, but he didn't do it.

Any hints about potions of youth quantitave effects? if blessed? potions of longevity likewise.

Is eating cat corpses is worse than just killing them?

Which things go to waste when entering the rift, and which don#t? I never lost an armour on landing for instance, but almost all wands and potions get destroyed usually. scrolls seem more resistant. Any hard data?

Does it just halve the time or does the lvl 18 archer ability also make it so that you get more arrows? I always thought that was the case, but never tested it...

Amulet of life saving does not save you from dying for old age or corruption.

As far as I know, it only saves you from deaths whereupon your character's HP reaches 0. Hence, you are not saved from those you mention, as well as numerous others including kicking stairs, eating gorgons, all endgame related deaths, etc.

It takes shorter time to eat cursed food than uncursed or blessed food.

Number of turns required to eat is proportional to satiation value. A similar effect is observed between cooked/uncooked food, for example.

It takes same time to eat uncursed or blessed food (of same type, of course). Also stomafillia takes less time to eat than gelee royal for example (but satiates more).

Now to go get 80 stacking eternium quarrels...

The blanket in the SMC always seems to be generated at one of the farthest possible points in the x axis, counting from the start.

I think the number of paces reported in the scroll you get in the SMC is 2x the distance to the blanket (i.e., moving a square is two "paces").
