I didn't know there were friendly monsters in Angband. Is this new in 2.8.0
or are you perhaps suggesting a new feature? And if you are going to add
friendly monsters, why not rather add Gandalf and the like? I just cannot
see what good a "gay guy friend" would be in your fight against Morgoth.

>ALL AREAS!  NOWHERE TO BIG OR SMALL FOR THE LOCATOR!

Since English is not my native language I cannot tell what the latter sentence
means; I am unfamiliar with the verbs "to big" and "to small". I must check
them in a dictionary, until then I could only guess.

>ALL PRIVATE!

The Home is private enough for me. Thieves cannot steal anything from there.
In fact, the only time I've ever lost stuff that was in my Home was when I
was coding the rotating shopkeepers feature in my variant and accidentally
made it reset my Home as well as the shops...

>ALL CONFIDENTIAL!

Confidential has little meaning here in its modern day sense, so I assume 
that you mean "con fide" (=with faith). Does that mean that you think all
characters should be "with faith", i.e. be able to pray? It would be rather
unbalancing IMO.

>ALL AGES!
>LADIES WELCOME!

Yes, you can choose to play a female character in Angband and that's a
tradition that's been there since Moria. But I don't think I would want
to play a 1-year old character -- besides such characters would be a pain
to impelement realistically.

Is this a new version of the Hours file? Or is it an extract from tables.c?
If so, you should have marked it as a spoiler. Not that I have a clue as to
its possible usefulness...

>2.99/min  

A minimum score of 2.99? In all attributes? Doesn't compute. Don't tell me
you have changed the stat system as well?
