Wisdom bug
 

I just happened to do a /statistics, and got my stats. They looked like this.

Experience: 27264870
Next Level: 28300000
Stat Nat/Real/Max
Str 20/ 21/ 20
Dex 20/ 30/ 20
Con 20/ 20/ 20
Int 20/ 20/ 20
Wis 19/ 21/ 20
Pow 20/ 20/ 20
Cha 20/ 20/ 20

Wait. 19 Nat wisdom? But the only Wis boosting item I have on is an Arcane shield, and it's only Wis+1. So I take it off, and my wisdom only goes down to 20. So I check the rest of my equipment and even take it all off. My wisdom is still at 20 even though it says Nat. wisdom is 19. So I go down to the underground dungeon and get a potion of wisdom and use it. Sure enough, my wisdom increases to Nat. 20 in /statistics, but is in reality Nat. 21.

I recall Brad saying that he managed to roll a 21 in Wisdom once. Maybe these two happenings are related somehow.

Oh yeah, the admins will probably want to nerf my wisdom back down to 20. Fair enough, but I want the Gold Key I used back.

I have 21 nat wis, anyone can.

Yep.
Natural max Wisdom is 21, everything else is 20.

Everyones real wisdom is 1 higher then thier nat i noticed this about 3 - 4 years ago..

Apparently the admins didn't.

Erm, I can bet you any concievvable amount of money that Sam has 21 nat wisdom, among others.

natural wisdom max has been 21 for the longest time.

it doesn't work for some people. fr0chin tried it, i think, and he said it didn't work.
