I have one for all you out there...

I zapped a wand of make invisible and used "." for which direction.
BANG, I was invisible, nothing new here...

FIVE LEVELS LATER, I DIED, HAVING NEVER SEEN MYSELF AGAIN.

It is nearly impossible to play five levels of nethack while
invisible, and I wouldn't have died except that I didn't seem
to be moving consistantly.  [I may have had my hands on the
wrong keys now and again, but stepping into the following
Room from the left door:

	-----------------
     ###+.y.............|
	|...............|
	|...x...........+
	-----------------

The ONLY valid move was up, and all the monsters went to the "x"
and beat the shit out of me. [or something,  I deduced this
position from the placement of other monsters and the "hit"
messages.  I think that there was a teleport trap just inside
the door, so the first time through I went up to the "y" and
searched for 100, and found nothing, so when I died at the
"x" all the sudden like, I was quite supprised!.

and no, I didn't have any rings of teleport, nor did I eat
any nastys!

So what's up with the perminant invisibility and the not
finding things while invis?
