So essentially you held them hostage (can't end event unless everyone goes thru gate or time runs out?) and swiped some holiday coins? hahaha your shenanigans are hilarious to read.
good stuff. I've had a fairly fun morning, stole about 1500 ingots, a vanq crook, and some other odds and ends. I just stole 2 plat and then sold it back to the guy for 12k, he didn't bank them so I stole it back and now have 2 plat and 12k It's been pretty decent other than the usual horrible insta deaths. (I don't mind dying to a newb that kills me, I hate dying to a guards macro or an npc) there are players spamming guards at jhel and at serps, so eventually they'll have that set up at every bank and it'll be no fun at all.
Hi Franz, great tale! By the way, check this out: http://uorforum.com/threads/uo-renaissance-thieving-perfected-ongoing-thread.7945/page-2#post-67551
Thank you! Oh ya, I've read that one. Probably BlackEye's fault people are so cautious around the chests!
At the time, I was super pissed off...but looking back, especially in story form, I have to say great job! I donated 30 of my own coins at the end to hand out to the warriors who helped slay the Bad Santa, to make sure their good deeds were appreciated. I don't remember the person who was in there with me, but he managed to grab the second stack of 20 HCs before your slimey hands could grab them Good job, and hopefully the next story I read, I wont be one of the main characters/victims
I'm glad to hear this as Franz's endeavours are all about the merriment of this shard! You don't remember who was there with you? It was DemTitties of course, as is seen in the comic! Interesting news though; didn't you set up that restock macro? Or did Titties do it as well? It must've been taken by a restock agent as I didn't even see the coins and I spammed to open that chest.
Alas, I managed to grab the HC the good old fashioned way. Quick clicking my friend. Dem Titties is now known as Horny Toad unfortunately.
I knew the character name, but was unsure of who he was in the forums. I feel like a bum now since I was talking to him last night on Moonglow roof and did not remember that he was the one that sniped those coins for us! @Sepulchre , thanks brosuf!
I'm happy to announce the re-introduction of this cousy Christmas story! As Dropbox turned off a great feature, where I could just load all my stories into a folder on my PC, I must now upload them through Imgur.
