rec.games.roguelike.angband looking glass
As of March 31 2008, my ISP's USENET feed provider ceased to exist (buyout by another company). Since that date, I no longer have any access to the USENET. Therefore, I am forced to discontinue r.g.r.a frontend on Angband.oook.cz website.

You thought wrong.

How do you know it was in the same turn? You probably were paralyzed for several
turns but because there were no monsters attacking you, no other messages were
generated between being paralyzed and not being.

I never bash. Dig round or walk round. Or use a spell.
