Perhaps I am not in a position to comment on this, since I have ascended once (ten years ago last august - hip hip hurray!).

Or is not getting past mine town after 9 months of sporadic play just
par for the course?

I get about one in two characters past Mine Town, and down to the bottom of Gehennom. I don't often die in between. After that, I lose interest, and start another character.
