Answer me these questions three (not really)

1) What do you think about this unique?
name: Trinity
desc: You heard tales of a champion of the three good gods who decided to vanquish all evil once and for all. To accomplish this, he he threw himself into the infinite realm of Pandemonium. Whenether it's him or not, the ambient chaos has corrupted him beyond recognition.
gimmick: consists of a core 'pulsating lump of flesh' and 3 heads (shining one, zin, elyvilon) each with its' own corresponding set of resistances/powers. Works like a kraken (kill every head or the core). A nice suprise for undead characters exploring Pan and a counterweight to that Makhleb Pan demon I forgot his name. Maybe Trinity should appear in holypan just like Ilsuiv appears in 5shoals.

2) How do you divide 10 bucks between 3 people, in SQL, in a way that doesn't lose remainders? I've had such assignment in colledge and couldn't forget about it.

3) Does walking speed affect stealth? Is spriggan inherently more stealthy than naga? They have equal stealth factors, but in my experience naga has harder time sleepstabbing.

4) How do you handle Fiends as a stabber/hexer? Needles don't work on them (at least didn't work for me, 20 throwing & +9blowgun, confusion needles). Nets work fine but they mulch quickly.

BUG: when you EnsoHib confused monsters, they sleepwalk.

how the hell did Trinity manage to get so mutated while following Zin?

Re: Answer me these questions three (not really)

Walking speed doesn't affect how stealthy you are. Stealth is checked for each step, not whenever a certain length of time passes.
I don't remember having a problem stabbing fiends with needles the few times I have played a needlestabber, maybe more than 20 Throwing would be helpful. Regardless, using your presumably high stealth to avoid fiends as much as possible would be a good idea.
Pretty sure sleepwalking is a feature, not a bug. If you do happen to find a bug, submit it to Mantis, not here.

Sleepwalking is a feature in that there is code that exists only to make it happen, though you can argue about whether it is a thing that should happen.

This probably isn't exactly what you're talking about, but #2 reminded me a lot of this old 'puzzle': http://www.snopes.com/inboxer/trivia/dollar.asp

3 obviously doesn't go into 10 evenly, so it's not clear to me what you mean by not losing remainders. Give everyone 3, leave one on the server :P if you want the crawl answer, you'd have a 1/3 chance of getting 4 ;)

Give the first person $3.34 and the other two $3.33. You've just divided 10 dollars between 3 people without any remainder.

Re: Answer me these questions three (not really)

the correct answer is to give each one $3 and take $1 for your services as the intermediary
