time to rot /food poisoningEdit

It says here corpses start to rot after 30 turns, source-diving over at Food poisoning results in 60 turns. So what is the matter - is 30 turns just a "safe lower bound" in case some monsters leave pre-aged corpses, do player and monster turns count separately and make up the factor 2, or is 30 plain wrong? -Tjr 22:21, 22 May 2009 (UTC)

BUC? Edit

Does the BUC of the corpse affect it's odd of rotting away? (trying to get a chickatrice corpse to use in late game) Chessnuts 00:56, June 16, 2011 (UTC)
