Sincere thanks to users blu256 and sxb for their bones files, which helped my gnomish Archaeologist ascend on the tilde.club server.
A lot of NetHack online play is focused on the public servers at nethack.alt.org and Hardfought, and indeed those are fabulous services, but NetHack is also a great match for pubnices. The bones feature suggests it was very much designed to be played on a shared UNIX system.
It would be nice to get a few more ascensions on the tilde.club high score table, so I invite everyone to have a go!
If you have no idea what I’m on about, you could start here: https://nethackwiki.com or just fire up the game by running the `nethack` command and dive in spoiler-free (but be warned, it’s brutally unfair).

Congrats, lab6! Glad my character's demise could help with your ascension! :)
