What's the deal with all the duplicate NPC's?

Once upon a time...

Well, it's a long story, so I'll skip it.

The gist of the matter is, I did something that caused them to appear, but the thing I did was good, it just had this unexpected side effect.  So don't worry about ginka.  It should actually make her happier.

However, we (I) do want to make them stop cloning, and I am doing so as they are reported.

So, if you see twins and triplets that shouldn't be there, please bug them so I can fix them.
Nyr: newbs killing newbs
Nyr: hot newb on newb violence
Ath: Mmmmmm, HOT!

Friendly reminder -

When you bug or typo a duplicate NPC, please use the keyword of the NPC in question, and do it from the room where you see the duped NPC. NPCs wander, and it's really frustrating to get a bug report that says "there's a duplicate NPC in some random room over here" with no keyword or anything...

Also, if you can use the term "dupe" or "duped" somewhere in the bug, that'd help us to resolve these much quicker.

As an example:

Some Place [NESW]
A green-skinned mul trudges along here.
A green-skinned mul trudges along here.

typo green duped
or
bug green duped

Thank you so much.
