  The above strategy is not the best course to take.  If you are
wearing any of the above rings, they will be cursed, and you will not be able
to remove them.  And who wants to be kept transported all over the    
level, or have Leprechans chase you constantly.  Not me that's for
sure!!!

  You should wait until you have a scroll of id. rings/wand/staff before
wear any ring.  a good idea is to have a lot of food, or a ring
of slow digestion on while you have another ring on..as this will
counter act the food consuming property of rings.


                     happy rogueing!!
