Spading

There are some vague or non-exact figures and information on this page. Some spading is required. Do you have to wait 72 hours, or just until rollover on the third day? Also, there is some evidence in talk that you can't get a ring of teleportation. Is this the case?

• If used with a wand in inventory, or if your last wand exploded more recently than 3 days ago, randomly drops some Dungeons of Doom potions and a random ring.
• As long as you use a mimic no sooner than 3 days after your previous wand exploded, you will be able to get a wand, even if the mimic was acquired before the 3 days have elapsed.
