Event Resolution - Edit 2

Before modification by Isaac at 30/09/2013 12:08:28 PM

Later on you hear of thieves at the Temple of Small Gods, a beaten up pub owner in Pseudopolis Yard, and how the Guild of Fools unveiled its new Automatic Pie Launcher and Custard Hose. In regard to the latter there is argument in the city over whether or not the Watch should confiscate them or purchase them for riot suppression, or if maybe they should be added to national treaties on banned weapons.

The Event is concluded, continue game play

For any wondering, here's the rough break down on events 3, 4 and 5:

Option 3: Guild of Fools - This event revolved around getting there first. A combat check allowed you to make it to the front of the mob by swinging elbows and resisting shoves. A wit check allowed you to remember a narrow alleyway to use a shortcut. A stealth check allowed you to avoid being targeted by the Guild of Fools’ automatic pie launcher.

Option 3 Stats:
Wit: 0 (Morporkians) or 1 for non-natives
Combat: 1
Stealth: 0
RPS: Rock

Option 4: Temple of Small Gods, in this option you needed Wit to make it past the door guard, Stealth to sneak past, or Combat to shove past.
Wit: 1
Combat: 0
Stealth: 1
RPS: Paper

Option 5: Pseudopolis Yard – A pub there named the Troll’s Tooth hold buried Treasure.
Wit: 1
Combat: 1
Stealth: 0
RPS: Rock


What those stats are is essentially what the event had that need to be tied or beaten to get the payoff. Exact payoffs varied but typically how much you beat the difficulty by, along with anyone else participating, controlled the degree of the award. Event 2 was a strictly Wit based event. You'll have to ask other players to find out what those events detailed specifically.

Nobody got the bonus, which is a reference to the headline of the event, and C.J. Bailey & Co. was a rubber manufacture that sold a lot of stuff in turn of the century ads, catalogs, etc. and has some amusing vintage ads, if you google "C.J. Bailey Rubber Vintage" or the like. This is technically a trick question since they had a few different addresses even if most were 22 Boylston Street, Boston, Massachusetts but anything Boston would have worked. Little hat tip to the the Discworld Character Wallace Sonky in there too.
