Message-ID: <375@oliveb.UUCP> Date: Sun, 10-Jun-84 16:14:12 EDT Article-I.D.: oliveb.375 Posted: Sun Jun 10 16:14:12 1984 Date-Received: Tue, 12-Jun-84 00:33:54 EDT Organization: nowhere in particular Lines: 19 In one of my last games, I did something really stupid: I wielded a ring, and then it wouldn't let me wield something else. However, I hit every single time, and must have done a lot of damage. I eventually got knocked off when I didn't bother to notice I had only 10 HP left. But what happened? Did Rogue (5.2) confuse the ring with some +2,+2 weapon? Is this just a once-in-a-polka-dotted-moon occurence? Is there actually some bug that allows one to wield rings as weapons?
