Although the central place for design discussion is ##crawl-dev on freenode, some may find it helpful to discuss requests and suggestions here first.

Any last words? (y/n)

Simple proposal: When you win or die, the game gives you an opportunity to enter a final note into the record of the game.

Re: Any last words? (y/n)

I like this idea. Having last words near the top of every dump could be really entertaining.

The idea of ghosts shouting their last words sometimes could also be funny, but given the somewhat recent discussion of problems with offensive ghost names, it probably shouldn't be added. Even people putting offensive last words in there to be seen by anyone who looks at their morgue could be a concern. But I do really like the idea overall.

This shouldn't matter, as you can already inscribe or write offensive notes if you wish.

I really don't get the problem with offensive names. If you meat a ghost with a name that offends you, shouldn't you be happy to destroy it?

But yes, last words sound like a nice idea. Also some little therapy to say goodbye to the poor bastard you just drove to his death.

Inscriptions can be used in a similar way, but this is much more direct.
