Very little of it was serious. ranagrande Send a noteboard - 01/10/2013 08:18:36 PM

View original postYour answer about the event's resolution was entertaining enough, but also obviously partly a joke. Can you please clarify which parts are true, and which parts are (deliberately?) obfuscating things?

Initially, the only really important things I posted were that:

1) I stayed at the crime scene.
2) The murder weapon consisted of marbles rather than teeth.


View original postYou say that the head was caved in with a bag of marbles. This at least is confirmed by both others (Berg and FT) who say they stayed at the crime scene.

Then you go on a tangent about why the Hippos are "obviously" involved (which I now agree with now, seeing the confirmed pamphlet - see my reply to FT above), because hippos are "hungry hungry" (?).


This is a reference to the board game "Hungry Hungry Hippos" in which players shoot marbles around the board and try to eat them with their hippo.
View original postYou then make a statement about Dwarfs being hoarders. Where does that come from? Do you have info that Bailey was a Dwarf? Or are you now talking about the first murder again? Was his head also then bashed in with marbles, instead of with a ram as we were assuming until now? Is that what you're saying?

Dwarves hoarding treasure is a staple of fantasy literature. It's a common theme in Lord of the Rings and Dungeons and Dragons, just to name a couple. I will admit that I myself had confused the two murders at this point. A dwarf was also mentioned in my event resolution message, but upon rereading I see that the dwarf was the investigator's assistant and not the victim, as I had initially believed.
View original post"All" the marbles? As in: "all marbles available in the city"? And are you now implying this was a robbery gone bad? But then you imply the Hippos will get their hands on some more, since they "are like crack".

Not to mention the whole part about "we now have roleblocking abilities". I can't even process the final few lines anymore.


This can be safely disregarded, as it likely has no factual bearing on this game. Note that I suspect that we do have roleblocking abilities in this game, but not as a result of this event.
View original postI assume you were joking around for at least some, if not most, of this. And I appreciate the jokes and the humor (you know I do). But for the sake of clarity: can you tell us which parts were jokes, and which parts are what you really wanted to share.

The question of whether you intentionally tried to muddle the discussion by adding elements about Trolls, Dwarfs and Diamond Cutters is open to the floor. (And your defense)


The Diamond Cutter and the Stunner are professional wrestling moves, and again are pretty much irrelevant. The Trolls and Dwarves were already in the picture. Our two murders are likely related. Otherwise, it could indicate multiple scum factions.

nope *NM* Yunalesca - 30/09/2013 11:14:57 PM 1056 Views
I did, and as above. Fanatic-Templar - 01/10/2013 02:42:45 AM 1484 Views
EBWOP: The victim, that is. *NM* Fanatic-Templar - 01/10/2013 02:43:17 AM 935 Views
I can confirm that. ranagrande - 01/10/2013 04:00:22 AM 1463 Views
Well, that basically settles my speculation then - We're up against the Hippo League *NM* Artsapat - 01/10/2013 02:33:41 PM 930 Views
Except the pamphlet was on the victim. Fanatic-Templar - 01/10/2013 06:46:18 PM 1464 Views
Or it could have been a calling card? *NM* Bergioyn - 01/10/2013 06:48:30 PM 842 Views
Huh. That's a good point. Artsapat - 01/10/2013 07:20:17 PM 1488 Views
