TorilMUD Iceberry Eating Contest!

Postby Gormal » Wed Apr 16, 2008 6:44 pm

Yes you heard it right, its time for the first semi-annual iceberry-eating EXTRAVAGANZA GANZA GANZA! Have you been hoarding iceberries for your own devious and possibly malicious purposes? Do you want a chance to throw your stockpile in the face of all of those poor questors? WELL HERE'S YOUR CHANCE. This SUNDAY SUNDAY SUNDAY, come on down to Viperstongue at high noon and laugh as the world cries at the light blue hue on your tongue as you wolf down handfuls of iceberries!

Contestants will be judged on quantity consumed, snide remarks, crowd reaction, and general awesomeness. So come on down and show what you've got!

I for one welcome these crowd-pleasing events. Count me in as a judge.
It will be fixed in Toril 2.0.

Excuse me, but this isn't hoarding. Some iron rations are also a quest item as well as many other foods. Iceberries are considered a delicacy by some and this is what the contest is about. Please reference lines 1748, 1253 and 204 of the magical quest file for examples of food being in quests.

I'll donate a crusty leather phallus to the pile for someone to eat.

Damnit. I ate all my iceberries last week. With some fava beans and a nice chianti. Sniff.
Having said all that, the situation has been handled, so this thread is pretty much at an end. -Kossuth

care to elaborate? i'm confused. do you mean gormals competition is good for the game, or that collecting statless quest items you wont be using yourself in violation of the mud's very rules creates the competition which you feel is good?

thanks in advance

when did i use the word 'hoarding' anywhere in what you quoted? and i wasnt even talking to you. nice troll and flame, especially how you compare something with unlimited amounts purchasable per boot to a once per boot item - food or otherwise

Mission accomplished.

Nicely played, Gormal.

You linked to a thread where the first rule is hoarding, which it isn't. There are other items, such as onions from IC, that are not unlimited. They also don't taste as good too. Is that a better argument for you?

do we need another history lesson?

a player with 15 iceberries wanted to sell me one for 2k plat. he was not kidding or being condescending or joking

i petitioned asking if this was legal now, and talona made her post which i linked.

you then made this post

viewtopic.php?f=23&t=19842

the rules apply to everyone. hoarding iceberries because you like to eat 'em? go for it. purposefully getting them at each boot and then turning around and trying to sell them to people doing quests? against the rules

and you are welcome for that chunk

Look, I'll try to explain as best as I can, but I havent played here in a long time, so whatever. This place lacks competition, lack of competition leads to lack of motivation, and lack of motivation leads to the lack of pbase the game has right now. When someone breaks a rule and it affects you directly, you have 2 options. Man up and try to beat them next time, or go cry to mommy. You chose to go cry to mommy.

Granted, I don't know the details of this particular incident, but whatever. Stop crying and play the game, or don't and gtfo.
