In case no one has figured out that acrynim, its yet another small
nethack bug (I might have just made it up). Nothing game changing, but
just technically incorrect. Am playing an athiest illiterate character,
so have no real way of identifying BUC status of items (can get 3
stack, pet ID cursed, assume large stack is uncursed, and remainder
blessed, but only bother doing that for water).
Anyway, was doing some alchamy, and as I had 3 different stacks of
healing, thought Id bless them all so I could alchamise them all in one
go. dipped an unknown BUC stack of potions into holy water and get the
amber glow mesage, then potions show up as uncursed potions. Now I had
no way of knowing whether they were uncursed or blessed.
Also, tried it with the next stack, and got the 'no effect...
interesting' message, which enables me to id my blessed potions without
using up a potion of holy water.
And then, when I did the same for my last stack, got the same amber
glow message, and it was IDed as blessed.
Like a said, a minor bug, and one I wouldnt normally pick up if I wasnt
doing this conduct, but a bug none the less
