It's funny you mention that. I just happen to have two. You can get those at Fernswarthy's you know, along with a lot of other food and cocktail items. I hunt there when I'm feeling creative. I made both a bartender and chef for my campsite. I also learned there's a clockwork bartender who lasts twi...

I needed the skeleton bones to make a spooky pirate skeleton familiar. He's pretty sweet: attacks every round, does spooky damage. He misses a lot at low levels, but I'm getting him up there. I also dropped a spare cocoa egg in the stash if either of you wants a cocoabo. Don't yet know what he does....

Not animal bones. Just regular skeleton bones. I have a dusty lumbar first vertebra and a dusty right clavicle. The rest I got rid of long ago. I'll drop those in the stash if you want them. Learned to make eggnog: rum + spices + ghuol egg. Two more levels and I'll be able to use the Wok of Ages to ...

Ooh, I'll have to make some strawberry wine. I'm having trouble finding vodka, though. I always end up using my oranges on tequila sunrises. I'm pretty close to making the miniature skeleton. As I recall, I only need like one more bone, which I could get very quickly if I really cared all that much....

Sounds good. I just finished the stupid MacGuffin quest and am about to start the Mysterious Island war. I'm going to take my time on it and get the super special reward.

On the contrary, Moxie is extremely useful to me, and to everyone for that matter, as you need it to wear better equipment, and it helps you avoid getting hit in combat. (If you have a certain level of Moxie, enemies just miss.) I did some research, and unfortunately the stat gains are extremely not...

The trash adventure could be difficult to figure out unless you encountered the solution earlier in your adventures. I just happened to realize what I needed to do because of something I'd seen a long time ago, and I put two and two together rather unintentionally.

What plains thing, beo? Are you talking about the giant trash? Well, neither beo nor I can see what's available, but I can tell you all six rec room slots are free. There's nothing in there by default. If there are some low-level items that would improve our rate of ascension to the better stuff, th...

If you give him the dictionary, he gives you another dictionary. It does the same thing. The scroll thing was trial and error for me, too, but I didn't have to work too long at it. I had been using the dictionary right from the start and had no problem with the encounters, though it took me a while ...

I think it should work anywhere in the equipment panel, whether it's hands or pouch (since those are the only places it will fit). Why not attach a string and wear it around the neck? Custom dungeon idea. . . .

Does either of you know where the black market is? I've searched the black forest for ages. I checked the market, the sleazy back alley, tried two bottles of hair dye to see if it would change anything. I'm totally stumped. Edit: Never mind. I already had everything I needed. I simply hadn't put it ...

I guess it depends on whether you're a physicist or a mathematician. I would say, nope.

An engineer, a physicist, and a mathematician are all staying at the same hotel. That night, the hotel catches fire. The engineer wakes up, smells smoke, leaps out of bed, and drenches the entire room in water. All his possessions are soaking wet, but at least he's safe. The physicist wakes up, smel...

I think having potion ingredients would (a) make more sense, and (b) be extremely cool. It never sat well with me that priests can conjure a potion from thin air without anything as a base . . . thought, admittedly, it doesn't make any less sense than conjuring lightning or fire from thin air.

Bioshock is an updated version of System Shock 2; the two games are nearly identical except in presentation (even the story is very similar). So, if anything was influenced by DM, it was SS2. I was just thinking about this last night, and I would love to see modding tools for Bioshock. Some fairly a...

Or, since it's a ninja weapon, you could make it a "folding spear" and change the on-ground and backpack sprites. A spear alone doesn't seem very ninja-specific to me, but a folding spear . . . that screams ninja.

I finished the text adventure on the first try. Can't remember what I got for it. I haven't found any planks to build a boat yet. I did finish the tr4pz0r quest, or whatever. Eh, got stuff to do today. Probably won't get around to this until late.

Do either of you know how to make goat cheese from goat milk? It's unbelievably hard finding goat cheese, but I do have some milk and figured I could convert it.

Edit: I found all the cheese, but I'm still curious to know if someone has converted the milk.

I was wondering how to make those lihc eye pies. No, I'm afraid I don't know about fermenting veggies and fruit, but I'll try to figure it out. I did make a whiskey and cola, but for some reason my colas aren't showing up on my cocktail list. Perhaps I need whiskey?
