Don't worry, It has been Hearsed (as all my bones are) but I do the
keep and DL option on Hearse, so I still have it, and yet someone else
will have the pleasure of dealing with it

BTW, I not sure about the rest of the group, but IMO, hearse is a
amazing little addon that adds a lot of fun to the nethack exp.

And yep, I have like...16 bones files waiting for me

Load hearse on your system; and, upload the bones file so someone else
has to deal with the marilith!

To beat it? Elbereth works just fine. I believe when converting altars,
there is a small chance a minion of that god will be summoned, A for lawful,
E for neutral, and & for chaotics.

The key word here is 'active'. Anyone who hasn't used Hearse within the
last ~6 weeks or so won't appear in the active list, no matter how long
they've used it for.

Many of the users on that list are people who have contacted me asking
for old accounts to be merged into their current one and who provided me
with a list of email addresses they've registered under Hearse over the
years. If you used Hearse for, say, a week in 2001 and are now merging
all your old accounts into one, as far as Hearse is concerned you've had
an account for 4 years.

Sorry Boudewijn , using google groups, and it does not like to quote
stuff.

I met it agian, and E worded with a wand of digging all over the place,
then made a dumb move, died, but (unluckily) did not bone agian, so
thus no one had the experince of downloading it from hearse, walking
into mine town, and seeing all over the place the Eword dug into the
ground, wondering what the heck caused such a battle.

There was 4 grave sites that i know of on that bones file, needless to
say, rather nasty!

That's no excuse. I don't use GG myself, but people who do have often
posted here explaining how GG may quote.

I believe you have to ckick on "show options", then on "reply". One
extra click is all it takes.
