Someone mentioned that in super rogue version 7.0 they
used a scroll of acquirement and got a +254 (or something
like that) two handed sword, seemingly consistently.

For the record, I tried it, and, sad to say, did not get
a "super weapon"!

P.S. Hint to you 7.0 users -- watch out when you get to level 18 or
so; that's when you seem to run into 6 or 7 monsters in one room
consistently; as in, tombstone time!
A ring of ogre strength seems to help, but not if you can't get to
a door to fight them one at a time.

Also, a ring of add strength seems to add nothing if you have
a ring of ogre strength, so don't bother wearing both.

Still trying to get that first win,
