More behind-the-scenes work this week (we&#8217;ve finally switched to C++11!), not so many new features.

Vampires get blood shops; Ghouls get corpse shops. (Butchers?)<\/li>\n<li>Potion Petition no longer contains negative effects.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>Potions of blood no longer give nutrition to non-vampires.<\/li>\n<li>Porridge has been removed.<\/li>\n<li>Okawaru no longer asks for corpse sacrifice; piety from kills has increased, and piety loss over time has decreased.<\/li>\n<li>Followers of Kikubaaqudgha and Nemelex Xobeh now get their respective special titles when their highest skill is Necromancy or Evocations (respectively).<\/li>\n<li>Snake now has an extremely cool set of new mosaic floor tiles &#8211; check them out!<\/li>\n<li>In Dis, the Serpent of Hell now has a reaching attack. Other Serpents of Hell have been weakened slightly.<\/li>\n<li>Players&#8217; movement speed now maps directly to their ghosts&#8217; movement speed, rather than action speed. (E.g., spriggan ghosts or ghosts of characters wearing boots of running now only travel faster, rather than also attacking, spellcasting, etc faster.)<\/li>\n<li>Condensation Shield is now melted when blocking a fire attack, not when failing to block one.<\/li>\n<li>The player can now be corroded when blocking an attack with a shield.<\/li>\n<li>The Transparent Skin mutation now gives -enemy accuracy at all levels, not just at level 3.<\/li>\n<li>Killer Klowns corpses are now as colourful in death as they were in life.<\/li>\n<li>Anubis Guards will no longer be slain by the traps of the Tomb they guard. (Likewise, Death Scarabs.)<\/li>\n<li>Monsters that aren&#8217;t Donald can now talk outside Dungeon. (Fixing a bug introduced in January of 2010.)<\/li>\n<li>Ghosts in console are no longer represented by &#8216; &#8216;.<\/li>\n<li>Insults have been considerably improved, you decrepit pissant boot-licking toady!<\/li>\n<li>Cats now like fish.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Happy crawling!<\/p>\n<p>(And be sure to check out our <a href=\"http:\/\/crawl.develz.org\/wordpress\/new-servers\">new servers<\/a>, if you missed them last week.)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hi, crawlers!
