I was a MU, 12th level, cruising along pretty well, when I ht a maze level. This is the time to be an MU; use your map spell, find monsters, and find treasure spell. BUT DON'T ATTACK Cs! I decided the points (and possible treasure) were well worth the effort, so I went up to a C (gelatinous cube) and hacked on him. I had my best armour, protect ring, etc., on, but he paralyzed me. Even that would have been recoverable, except that I had used the "fight" command (rather than "Fight", which does so until one of you are dead), so when I became un-paralysed I should have stopped. Instead I went right on and got killed. Solutions? Don't use "f" on things. Keep your finger on thekey if you do. Stupid game. If only I could ever win..... Alex
