Trivia +
The DevTeam Thinks Of Everything
Being a roguelike game, NetHack gives the players a considerable degree of freedom in how they interact with the game world. NetHack developers are seemingly able to predict even the most unexpected things a player can do, and program specific messages that are displayed in response to any such action. This attention to detail has become proverbial and is reflected in the saying, "The DevTeam Thinks Of Everything" (often abbreviated as TDTTOE).
Originating with NetHack, this aphorism has since been applied to other games (not necessarily roguelikes).
