Backstabbing does not disqualify you from the platinum girdle, no

Thanks JS. Just googled it myself, my internet is so darn slow at moment.
iirc, the dorf shield isn't guaranteed, but since there is a chance for it, I think you should go for it.
Also, grobble, maybe the alchemy skill was used to brew potions of raw chaos, which he then dipped
[invisitext] yes, that is me being sarcastic toward the illiterate character who was definitely not savescummed at all [/invisitext]

when i first saw that report thought it was extremely suspicious too, they also mentioned a bug around a monster stepping onto a trap which iirc doesn't exist. suspect save file editing.
Even with up/down scumming trick in the ID its just not possible to gather that many potions without spawning a blink dog. You'd be talking probably 50k+ moves stair hopping to get anywhere near it (Unless you save scummed the dipping bit with your first potion. ) . Yet we're to believe they did the entire thing in 110k moves.
the one platinum attempt i made i'm not even sure where it went wrong, did everything right, wizard, bug temple then forge, then teleported through every level possible and still didn't get the reward at the end, so can't see how you could spend thousands of turns in the ID without hitting one lawful mob.

He was a bard. If a blink dog appeared, presumably he tamed it and immediately left the level.
