So, It looks like I just played my fastest nethack game ever. And I’m definitely not counting a game where you just leave the Dungeons of Doom on the first turn by walking up the stairs you came down on. I’m talking about legitimately sitting down to play a game and see how far you can get.

So this one lasted 28 moves, and is the only game where the entire message log appears in my character dumpfile.

I’ve decided to attach this dumpfile so that you guys can laugh at my stupid mistake of stepping on a dart trap with a rogue. Previously, the fastest I had died was getting killed by a Succubus after drinking from a fountain on lvl 1. But I think that game went like 140 moves or so.
