If you have an aleph higher than the spell cost, the spell still costs 1 mu.
Gods glow when they are worshiped in a ceremony which they are leading.
If a trap does not say you can disarm it, you cannot.
Traps which say that they are "disabled in advance" become so by
having the associated computer system shut them down. Ask your local hacker.
Every area in buried sf has a security system, which usually consists of a
physical and a hacking component. Anyone can open the physical packet and
start pulling out strips of paper. When they are ALL gone, take whatever
item cards are inside. Do NOT assume that packets on the wall won't kill
you. We are serious.
Mages, Wizards, Sorcerers, and associated folk: You may cast any spell by
tossing a pellet at somebody. You may cast spells which are line of sight,
like disarm, by just telling them. You may cast spells which do not cause
damage (e.g. glue) by throwing a pellet, BUT IF IN ZOC YOU DO NOT HAVE TO HIT.
You do have to throw it, and you can't just toss it to yourself, but it
does not have to hit.
