Competition 245

[Pete Mack]

@Sphara--I mostly agree, except rogue nerfs have gone a little too far. There is no killer spell to make up for losing all those buffs.

Same overall value as non-rand, but keeping the subcategories (boots vs rings vs weapons) also at the same overall value, and maintaining consistent properties withing those subcategories.

Hmm, I kinda agree randarts can be very hit and miss, some bonkers but most are quite meh. I think I will add this to my thing to consider ...

Honourable mention too for wobbly's attempt that he didn't finish in time.

Yes, wobbly is the real winner for Comp 245. Great game, wobbly!

Meh, I knew I'd be pushing it to finish in time, I think you won Comp 245, fair and square.

On the other hand unless I'm mistaken 45,740 turns is the record time for a priest win in angband. I'll take that and put the challenge out to beat it.
