Here are a few hints worth noting:

* At any prompt asking for a username or usernumber, you can type a ? to obtain
  a user listing by level.

* Jousting is important, especially in the beginning to gain gold.

* Whenever a prompt asks for an amount of gold, it usually has a [MAX=$$] after
  it.  You can type MAX instead of entering the whole amount.

* Killing a 'blessed' user gives you bonus points on your abilities a small
  percentage on your weapon on armor.  Losing to a user while blessed gives
  him your blessedness.  Losing to an arena monster while blessed will give the
  blessedness to a random user.

* Losing to a 'cursed' user takes points away from your abilities along with a
  small percentage on your weapon on armor.  Only by defeating another user can
  you pass on the curse.

* Descend levels in the dungeon as quickly as you can to gain more experience,
  if you have the hit points.  Trapdoors can help, but they can also damage
  your weapon and armor.

* Owning a naval warship can earn you big money, especially fishing and hunting
  sea monsters.
