To prove how good and purehearted we are, why not see if some charming clown tricks from Eughh and Dropsy can turn the gunman's frown upside down? Alternatively, offer the gunman clown paint, either to become part of Dropsy's posse or in exchange for his swell hat.

He's robbing you! Quick, throw your entire inventory at him at once so he doesn't get mad! Don't worry, he's a gunslinger! I'm sure he has the reflexes to catch everything at once.

Has this man seen the Cactus? Maybe he'll help you look for it? Would he like some facepaint?

Dropsy stared down the pitch black steel barrel of death, matched only by the dark eyes of the grizzled man in front of him. Never breaking eye contact, he reaches slowly into his pants and pulls out a single nugget of gold, and holding it up in the dim light, its surface glinting slightly. The silent assailant smiles, beckoning him to hand it over, gun still trained on our hero. He says nothing, but nods slightly towards his faithful hound, Eughh. The clown throws it up high. The would be robber's eyes instinctively follow it, reaching out to seize the shining nugget. His gun lowers, Eurghh sees his chance and leaps for his arm, sinking his teeth in deep, tasting the tinny blood as it seeps between his teeth, hearing the shrill cry of pain from his target. The sound of metal clattering against stone can be heard as the gun hits the floor. Dropsy pulls the shovel out of his pants, brings it back, and swings forward with all his strength, feeling bones crack as he makes contact with the face of his opponent. Forehand, backhand, and forehand again, as if tennis had become bloodsport. The criminal collapses to the floor, clutching his jaw in agony, eyes watering in pain. Stricken with fear, he can't even bring himself to move as he meets eyes with his attacker, his face still smiling down at him through his pale, corpse-like make-up, and his red, sanguine lips. 'He never stopped smiling', he thought, as he slipped into unconsciousness. 'He never stopped smiling...'

Citizen Insane posted:You know what defeats guns every single time? Hugs. That man is obviously a sheriff from the shiny on his chest, so all you need to do is show him that you're one of the good guys! Hugs. Hugs are always the way. Maybe he'll even give you a shiny star too! To be fair, Dropsy's experiences with law enforcement have not been...good. The officers at the previous department were covering for the mob, and the one guy who wasn't was going to murder dropsy to keep the reward money. Dropsy should not at all talk to the police, and then post a thread in gbs about it.

Make a surprised face and point over his shoulder. When he turns around smack him with the shovel.

Juggle everything in your inventory and while dude is clapping at such feat the dog tears his leg off this isn't rocket science people. then take stuff then look for cactus . Great video by the way. Keep up the awesome work.

Considering that this is a mine, this man is a miner who lost his pick and is trying to trade his revolver for your pick. Just help a poor soul out.

Folks, Dropsy is not the type to try and fight his way out of a situation. The prospect of a physical altercation pretty much always terrifies him. I want to know why this guy is drawing a gun on him. I have no doubt that Dropsy will be able to help him in some way that continues the adventure without bloodshed.

Just a thought. Let's pretend you're hanging out in a mine for unknown reasons, when through the gloom comes... well Dropsy and Euugh doing their very best Donkey and Diddy Kong impression. I'm pretty sure I wouldn't experience any truly conscious thought until all movement stopped and there was nothing but the frantic *click click click* as my spent gun hammered away at the six empty chambers. This man has nerves of steel. I just hope he's a good guy. (Still voting for calling in a bat attack)

Offer to paint his face for him and while he's distracted call the bats. Take his hat too.

Dropsy is very familiar with offerings at party stores. The "Sheriff" is clearly holding a water pistol and his badge is made of plastic. Show him REAL gold and he will clearly know who is boss - offer to give him the pickaxe or shovel (his choice!) if he'd like to join your party. If he accepts, give him a hug and carry on. If he does not accept, give him a hug and politely ask he step aside.

Hold up your hands and show you are not a threat, perhaps by performing some silly clown trick and try to get a smile.

I think in order to have a proper character arc we need some kind of tragedy. Either Eughh or Pokey should valiantly sacrifice themselves, disarming the robber. Dropsy then beats the robber to death with his own shoes. Dropsy wanders the desert coming to terms with the loss of a friend, and the guilt of killing a man. E: just saw the video. RIP Pokey. Maybe mouse friend could make a brief comeback only to sacrifice himself to save dropsy from Sheriff Badman Iriquois fucked around with this message at 20:16 on Jul 2, 2013 |

Am i the only one who thinks the guy with the gun looks like some kind of cleric or preacher? It looks like a cross on his chest and his hat and robe make him look like an old western preacher (in fact type that into google images ad that is what comes up) Not sure why he would have a gun and be in a mine though. Clearly a misunderstanding somewhere. Dropsy needs to throw the cactus at him and while he is struggling grab his hat (dropsy needs a hat!) and make his escape further into the mines.
