Once again I have an question. I, Gilgabit, was on the second level
of the dungeon and had raised myself to a fourth level Caveman. 
Suddenly strange and bizarre things started happening. I walked over 
a trap door and it opened under me. BUT, I was told that "A Mysterious
Force prevents you from going down". I finished of the level and tried
to descend the stairs. Again, I was told that "A Mysterious Force 
prevents you from going down". I had nothing in my possesion, other
than what I started with, since I had used up the 2 potions and 1 
scroll I found so far. (By the way, I am exploring dungeon version
1.0.3) Any thing like this happen to anyone else.

P.S. I personally think this might have been a new feature added
to our system to prevent people playing during business hours, since
this problem occurred about 8:05. I was also unable to save my game
at this point (Couldn't access save file). I had problems when I quit
since trhe program couldn't access the record file either. Also, about
7:58 (by my watch), the keyboard responded very slowly to commands, 
while other people using the emacs editor had no problems. I think they
are trying to make it very inconvenient for you to play at all after 
8:00 AM.
