UnassemblyRequired posted:If possible as a free action, I would like to ask Tudiya to identify the statue before we choose. I have this hunch that aptitude with the bow is not where our strength lies, at least for the time being. We should seek out the help of whoever happens to be watching over us to guide us through our upcoming trials. You can and do ask. Tudiyah does not respond. He waits.

Changing my vote from the bow and arrow to the FLINT. Fire is the basic requirement for survival and the most important tool. Warmth, protection, light, etc. Separation of man from animal, a gift from the gods. Take the loving flint and don't eat raw meat the entire time.

Just a reminder. You can't have jerky without fire and you can't have fire without the flint and iron. Well, you can but it's really time consuming.

Can we take Tudiya as our item? I mean, if Snarls is up for grabs, then why not the king?

Vote 1 seems to be a D run away. There seems to be support from those not voting to take Snarls to give him instructions to watch Danal. Vote 2 is as follows with 26 votes counted: B. Knife = 1 D. Bow = 10 G. Statue = 2 I. Snarls = 6 K. Flint/iron = 7 I counted the M votes to wake Snarls, give him instructions and take the Bow as Bow votes, pending whether we take Snarls or not. There were two or three of those.

Raserys posted:1. D This! Snarls is the man and all, but lets take something practical - something to start a fire, and in a pinch make a torch to use for light or a weapon. Also a bow with one arrow is not going to be that helpful. No idea how long we could be out here for - fire should be priority number one above all else.

1. F I don't think we're quite zen enough yet to not be mad at that. Maybe in a few more years. 2. I When in doubt, always take your pooch. Especially if your pooch is insanely smart. I mean, he managed to crap on Keza's ceiling in defiance of all known laws of gravity; I'm pretty sure he's smart enough to help us work out whatever we're about the face. Question: We're fluent in the Zepath language now, but have we kept up speaking out native tongue with Danal? I've been assuming we have, but it hasn't actually come up in awhile so maybe that's not the case?

1G: You... were exasperated! "My friend dies, and you inform me by telling me his body would make a great soup!? What have I ever done to you to deserve that?" Trade something we own in exchange for Monkey, then bury him with Danal. 2J: Sack filled with rice. No idea how we're going to cook it, but Enkidel is going to starve if he doesn't eat at least twice a day. Also, putting a "yes" vote insofar as waking up Snarls and having him protect Danal and Mom.

You did not ask, you simply took Monkey from her and then buried him with Danal... and muttered something about how maybe cannibals can't change their nature. 2. You pick...I. Snarls Barkley, because there's safety in numbers. This is one of Tuydia's stupid tests. Take the dog and show we value our people. We'll get a bow later on.

I thought that was why people were voting to bring Snarls? Edit: seriously though, I really have a bad feeling about bringing Snarls. I do not think it will be good for him at all and we might be thinking about that following Monkey's death and all. Sogol fucked around with this message at 04:57 on Sep 23, 2013 |

Diogines I've some questions for you. Do we still have the arrow head around our neck, is it stone? We've trained a great deal with the bow, but are we even close fletchers yet? If we still have the arrow head on us and find a stone we can make do for flint, if we have Snarls we have something to lead us, fetch firewood, and warn us of danger. I think we'd need a knife to any attempt to make a bow or fletchings though. This is all assuming of course we're thrown into the wilds, the item itself may make the test. We're so gonna regret not picking incense! 1.D, seems like the right thing to do on all fronts. It's the just thing to do for monkey and Danal, and it won't make Keza lash out at our mother. 2.I, I wonder if it would be against the "rules"  of the test if we told Snarls to pick an item, maybe he'll do it on his own. He is a smart dog after all.

1. D 2. I and tell Snarls to get the flint UNLESS: Diogenes, does Snarls behave in the same manner as the flute? Like, does our algebra homework up until someone else is watching? If he just sits there and grins at us when we ask him to grab the flint, then I change my vote to K and tell Snarls to look after Danal.

Even if we do have an arrowhead around our neck, it's not an iron one, 'cause those are rare. D While strongly resisting the urge to slap the taste right out've Keza's mouth. K Flint makes fire, fire makes everything else. We're probably good enough to bean some poor woodland creature with a rock anyway

1. D Danal needs to know what happened to his monkey. mini - tell Snarls to take care of Danal. Danal has a kennel, Snarls needs to be fed. Maybe it will keep both of them out of trouble. 2. K. Fire is cool.

I'm not going to vote on this option because I'm not really sure of which I'd prefer (well, Monkey vote is D, but that's going to win anyway). I do want to say that we've done it guys. We managed to successfully raise a strong, honorable character. One that knows his letters and numbers, one that knows the difficult to use bow, and one that doesn't sacrifice children to cannibal fishgods. I never thought we'd get here. Enkidel is a fine young man, he just needs to spend time with his mother. When we return, she must be the first we go to, if we can. Also, I agree with the minivote for Snarls to take care of Danal. I'd like to add one more thing though; I'd like him to also keep an eye on our mother.

So this is a manhood rite. And we want to be explorers. There is no better choice here than our loyal companion, Snarls Barkley. Let me give you some examples of why this is the best choice. Example A: Post apocalyptic exploring  Example B: They can get cash for us  Example C: They can deal with fish problems  A flint or bow is never going to be as cool as this  Dogs are highly portable  It's our birthday and he wants to celebrate with us  Bonus dog making friends

Can't we pick Snarles and then tell him to grab the bow/arrow in his mouth? Our rule was to pick one. Snarles gets to pick whatever he wants
