Well, I can drop it and hopefully the intended person is on the ball enough to pick it up.

Who would you prefer be holding it? What do you think of the other two people who tried to grab it?

I don't think anyone should hold it! It can only do ill for us. That pearl oozes evil like a hagfish oozes mucus, and it can't be trusted. I think we should return it to the sea.

How do we know you're not trying to poison all of us and take the pearl for yourself?

You seem quite on edge, my friend. Perhaps a drink would calm your nerves? I have tea, if you like. Or maybe something stronger?

Nature Abhors A Vacuum


I am on call this week and just got a phone call alerting me to an abend I need to deal with. When I got on my computer I saw an email telling me that I had a PM. 'Oh boy! I can be one of the first to check in and confirm!' I thought.

There are over 100 posts :psyduck: I'm not reading all that tonight. You should all be asleep.

Anyway I fixed the abend so the world is saved :toot: going back to bed now, good night anyone who is silly enough to still be awake

The fact that people are already lashing out at me for holding onto the pearl confirms that I am right to do so. Greed corrupts the hearts of men, and I am uncorruptable therefore I should hold on to it.

There are only two kind of folks that would take something dangerous like this so casually, a fool and a thief. So tell me, which are you?

there should be a huge crowd of spectators and that they should

Let me take an ECCO GUESS at this setup: The pearl is some sort of activator for roles. It definitely has a downside. If you're a vanilla person, you probably don't want the pearl unless you feel like you need to stop scum from picking it up.

That is my setup theorycrafting for day 1.

ninja: I guess the pearl could also transform a vanilla into a non-vanilla. I take back what I said.
