Wiglaf should do damage shaving and it should take ages to stop bleeding. (Edit: Or is that what you meant anyway?)

What I mean is since the mountain dwarfs and the hill dwarfs are extinct he must be a non-healing deep dwarf.

A one-dimensional game of Crawl where the game picks a random forum user's email address, then spawns monsters with appropriate symbols in a horizontal corridor, placing the player where the @ would be. If you clear this level, you get teleported to another level generated from a different user's email address, and so on until the player character dies.

I really like this idea.

Every monster from D:1 to D:5 is Sigmund/Sigmund the 12-headed hydra
Branches are not branches now but the part of the main dungeon instead
The only hunger states are Hungry and Starving; you enter the Dungeon with the latter
Runes weigh 30 aum. each and are true to their names - serpentine rune will poison you, decaying rune will decay you, you'll have to make silver rune clean as you would do with silver spoons and forks, etc.
The game is now real-time, not turn-based
You have to compile the code every time in order to launch it

You forgot:

The computer does not have a monitor display but outputs onto printed tape.

Or, ultrahardcore:

No computer is involved. You have to calculate all the probabilities that would be produced by the RNG by hand after referring to look-up tables. Paper-and-pencil is allowed, pocket calculators and other electronic devices are not. The task includes calculating the possibilities of appearance for all encounters and objects, every turn.
