> Your rank, proficiency in teleport(if casting), spellcraft, and luck(of course) all have to do with where you teleport to.
1) Your rank - lotsa mobs are just not agro for you if you are hero.
Teleport/spellcraft percentage - I think it is all wrong here.
Your luck - go figure.

2)
World restriction : You cant travel across continents or time with teleport.
Area restriction : You could not teleport to explore_areas, shrines and areas you can't enter in normal way (for example: Mud School, Skies above Thera).
Room restriction : Room you land into can't be norecall, noexit or underwater. You cant land into private, god_only rooms.
No_magic, locked but recall room is very possible to land into (room past Sko in Balator). So keep 'pass door' up :-)

> I am fairly certain that you cannot teleport into no magic and no teleport rooms.

If room is no_recall it is also no_teleport.
I do not know rooms what are no_teleport but recall.

Also since I teleport a lot I have noticed what if you repeatly teleport - it tends to land in same areas more then you would expect on pure chances.
Like : udgaard, eryn galen, AoN, dol guldar, aryth ocean, eryn galen, emerald, ugdaard, eastern, mirkwood, open planes, desert of araile, eryn galen, etc.
In game merchanic terms it basically means what random function what chooses location for you is a bit too pseudo_random.
Imms - check it please.

As for 'torch holder' - your group mate was probably spying for that guy.

PS If you know more about teleport - please share with everybody.
