Now the real question.
What team has a Minotaur on it that got inexplicably angry by the new playing field?
“It’s so clinical! There’s no soul to it, no passion!”
I guess he’d Wallow in despair.
“Well its a good enough start, but all of the walls are linear. I’d recommend making the maze a bit more circular, maybe stick in an Orpheus anti-backtracking measure? Though I prefer the Broken Ariadne technique myself.”
It’s perfectly explicable. They could put up all those walls and DON’T?
Grr! Moo!
…But they’re frog people….THEY CAN JUMP OUT OF THAT THING >< put a lid on it!
Yeah, hop to it!
There may be magical constraints. Witness how hard Stabs found climbing, when she’s a rogue.
She probably forgot her rope and grapple hook.
So, Stabs = Trouble. She can’t help it…
It’s quite a-maze-ing, isn’t it?
Those gasses sure look like they’re leaving people stoned.
Well, I’m shipping these two now. I don’t even like Derek.
I don’t know, it seems like they have a rocky relationship.
Stabs seems on the fence about it.
Yeah, it almost seems like there’s a wall between them. Then again, perhaps there’s mortar this relationship than meets the eye. Take nothing for granite.
It does seem they have a bit of a brickly situation going on.
Perhaps this incident will help cement their friendship.
arghh, these puns don’t have any solid foundation, I require some concrete humor
So what’s Derek’s proficiency bonus in snark?
Diplomacy is a class skill for clerics.
Snark is a specific application of diplomacy, if you think about it.
“Mr. Cleric, tear down that wall!”
I had no idea that this a-maze-ing story had so many twist and turns. I’m unsure of what’ll happen next; Derek just gave Stabs a labyrinthine amount of options!
“But do they call me Derek the Wallbuilder? Nae they do nawt!”
Full marks if you know the joke this comes from…
…well, depends on what animal you know the punchline to include =P
based on the user pic above, i’d go with some sort of donkey, burro or ass.
I see you’ve been to that small bar in Scotland…
I’m waiting for someone to ask the inevitable question of “How did you cause a game with no rules to end in a double disqualification?”
Derek is just that good of a cleric.
Frankly, I be disappointed if Stabs HADN’T found a way to do exactly that. She’s just that bad at breaking the rules.
There ARE rules. though. Remember, they started the game down at least 10 points *because* they kept breaking the rules!
Honestly, if there are no rules, then I don’t think Inevitables will have much to do with it…
As far as starting the game down points, (as well as losing more points as the game progressed,) that really seemed to be more due to Ms. Bai’s personal vendetta…
You know, with all these walls, it’s a real shame Robespierre isn’t around to clean up the place…
Ohhhh… this has been the cunning plan all along, hasn’t it…
That alt-text is the “Highlight” of this page!
Holy cannoli, Goofus & Gallant are still around? I haven’t seen those two since the 60’s!! (I was only in the 1st grade, so I can remember the 60s. 😀 )
