Loooool. xD
Just a quick FYI because I'm bored and excited - I have a 12-player game almost ready to go. Needs reviewing, but there's no rush.

Right, well let's get 11 over then (obviously no longer your responsibility).
:P The withdrawals have started already.

This evening I also kind-of-sort-of whipped up flavour for a randomly selected 2of4 9-player setup... Obviously there are plenty of people in the queue ahead of me but if/when there's call for another newbie-friendly game it's there if needed. :)

Do what I usually do, lots of observations in the observer's topic :P Seriously, I fill those up sometimes just by myself XD

Where the hell are you going?
I got bored, so I decided for our amusement to type out the WIFOM scene from the Princess Bride's book. I left the main part, and stopped where Vizzini switches the drinks.

“The battle of wits has begun,” said the man in black. “It ends when you decide and we drink the wine and find out who is right and who is dead. We both drink, need I add, and swallow, naturally, at precisely the same time.”

“It's all so simple,” said the hunchback. “All I have to do is deduce, from what I know of you, the way your mind works. Are you the kind of man who would put the poison into his own glass, or into the glass of his enemy?”

“You're stalling,” said the man in black.

“I'm relishing is what I'm doing,” answered the Sicilian. “No one has challenged my mind in years and I love it....By the way, may I smell both goblets?”

“Be my guest. Just be sure you put them down the same way you found them.”

The Sicilian sniffed his own glass; then he reached across the kerchief for the goblet of the man in black and sniffed that. “As you said, odorless.”

“As I also said, you're stalling.”

The Sicilian smiled and stared at the wine goblets. “Now a great fool,” he began, “Would place the poison in his own goblet, because he would know that only another great fool would reach first for what he was given. I am clearly not a great fool, so I will clearly not reach for your wine.”

“That's your final choice?”

“No. Because you knew that I was not a great fool, so you would know that I would never fall for such a trick. You would count on it. So I will clearly not reach for mine either.”

“Keep going,” Said the man in black.

“I intend to.” The Sicilian reflected a moment. “We have now decided the poisoned cup is most likely in front of you. But the poison is powder made from iocane and iocane comes only from Australia, as everyone knows, is peopled with criminals and criminals are used to having people not trust them, as I don't trust you, which means I can clearly not choose the wine in front of you.”

The man in black was starting to get nervous.

“But, again, you must have also suspected I knew the origins of iocane, so you would have known I knew about the criminals and criminal behavior, and therefore, I can clearly not choose the wine in front of me.”

“Truly you have a dizzying intellect,” whispered the man in black.

“You have beaten my Turk, which means you are exceptionally strong, and exceptionally strong men are convinced that they are too powerful ever to die, too powerful even for iocane poison, so you could have ut it in your cup, trusting on your strength to save you, thus I can clearly not choose the wine in front of you.”

The man in black was very nervous now.

“But you also bested my Spaniard, which means you must have studied, because he studied many years for his excellence, and if you can study, you are clearly more then simply strong; you are aware of how mortal we all are, and you do not wish to die, so you would have kept the poison as far from yourself as possible; therefore I can clearly not choose the wine in front of me.”

“You're just trying to make me give something away with all this chatter,” said the man in black angrily. “Well it won't work, you'll learn nothing from me, that I promise you.”

“I have already learned everything from you,” said the Sicilian. “I know where the poison is.”

“Only a genius could have deduced as much.”

“How fortunate for me that I happen to be one,” said the hunchback, growing more and more amused now.

“You cannot frighten me,” said the man in black, but there was fear all through his voice.

“Shall we drink then?”

“Pick, choose, quit dragging it out, you don't know, you couldn't know.”

Apparently gog.com hates mobiles, there's no mobile style sheet at all.
Pity the classic "Look behind you!" doesn't work so well on the internet..!

Who knows how what is hot is calculated? For some reason GOG decided to write their own forum software and it kind of shows sometimes... >.>
