A very sad happening this morning. I go to check on my fishies to see how they are doing and I find two dead. Nothing but thier little bones left in the tank.

I know that Shabba surely had something to do with this horror.

But now he has to look at the poor bones I have locked down in his room every time he logs in.

Nooo! Two deaths in one evening??!! Highly suspicious...I suspect something similar to the Purple Frog Incident occurred OR that certain virulent contaminants (a/k/a Shabba germs), were introduced to the delicate ecosystem. Some creatures simply are not strong enough to fight off an acute case of cooties
.

But, the circle of life continues...2 deaths, and 2 births. Yes! Although we must mourn the tragedy that has befallen your aquarium, at the same time we can rejoice that there were 2 new arrivals to mine: a full moon fish (which looks like a big orange circle) and a yellow fin bluebelly!

*notices Wulf choking on something, pauses to adminster Heimlich maneuver*

Hmmm, looks like a giant hairball. I thought only cats got those.

Anyway, I think a surveillance system may be in order for your house, Ibichi.

Well, isn't that a little convenient....

I propose that the killer is none other than Skylark herself!

*pulls out monacle*
This morning, the fiend checked her own aquarium, and finding nothing but the result of her own incompetence floating at the top, she placed two skeletons into a bag hidden on her person.

Driven by jealousy and greed, she approached Ibichi's manor, entered through the door Tilly forgot to lock behind him, then exchanged her own failures for the pride and joy of the Ibichi Aquarium!

Knowing full well that Tilly would be blamed for the dastardly deed, she not only failed to hide her actions, but flaunted the results of them for all to see!

&lt;------------- It rolled that way, to the northleft.

Just do not put the monacle in your mouth when you find it, hon. I am too tired to give you another Heimlich maneuver.

I was initially pissed off about the fish bones on the floor but now that I have seen the pub 37 changes nothing could make me sad.

THANK GOD THEY FIXED THE ELVEN HAIR BUG. I mean really there have been entire shards pancakes about that for months.

And the hunger system. Wow, finally. I mean we all know this really needed to be addressed. I have been playing this game over four years and have never gotten hungry, but I am sure this was very important.

And if I had a home I know I would be pissed about a Hearth of the Home not having the right name. Good thing they picked up on that before I got a house or a hearth.

The "W" missing on the longitudinal coordinates is perhaps the best improvement to this game in years. I was so close to cancelling my last account, but this "W" will keep me around for another publish.

Now what were we saying about fish bones?

Hmmpff...go ahead and try to change the subject to trivialities such as Publish 37! Well, those poor fish bones will serve as a silent reminder of your evil deed everytime you slink to your room. Like the tell-tale heart beating beneath the floorboards, their empty little eye sockets will stare at you accusingly, you will hear the echoes of their little fish cries of death...and soon you will be driven to MADNESS.



Just a bit of pre-Halloween mood setting to go with the fish tank taunting, Tilly.

And while he pondered weak and weary
His eyes glazed over droopy and blurry
He stumbled into a statue tall
He thought his feet hit early a wall
in the dark


But nay his toes were all bloody
He did not feel anything cuddly
nay only the cold cold part
of some statue's stoney heart
in the dark

And suddenly he heard a rapping
rap rap rapping grasping tapping a tapping
down below him on the floor
rapping gasping tapping gasping ever more
the haunting of a dead fish upon the floor
in the dark

Then she came home
She entered the house alone
And what did before her did she see
but a dead fishie upon the floor
shouting... Tilly is ..no more


she raced to turn on the light
and she nearly fainted at the sight
of a human hand in the mouth of dead boned fish
the dead fish laughing..saying it got it's wish
Truffles ala Tilly ..FISHFOOD prime
tis this real or pixel nightmare sublime ??

While ye ponder weak and weary
Be ye mindful of aquarium's theory
For in the end...

in the dark

ye may hear a fish dead and stark

laughing laughing upon ye midnite floor.

And Wulf, shame on you trying to blame Sky. *points you to a corner*

The fish of course had tricked
The setter of the trap so lame
For Tilly is neither foolish
Nor a newbie to this game

An encounter had been had
Between the Bones and the man in the bed
But the story is distorted
For this is what was said

"Whose bones are on my floor
and why are they so limp"
Said Shabba to the skele
Of the fish who once were pimp

"Tis us the former residents
Of the tank in where you shat"
Cried the former Minoc Bluefish
Using spirit speak - or was it guild chat

Shabba smiled like a Cheshire
So happy with himself
The turd had killed the fish
As was promised by the elf

Shabba had enlisted the elf
To destroy his aquatic foe
"By any means necessary"
Was how the instructions were said to go

So the elf pondered his charge
How could he kill the fish
As he sucked upon his hookah
He shored up his plan - and the perfect dish

To Skylark's house he ran
For a meal he tasted before
This meal, though pegged a gourmet dish,
Had rotted through his floor

The elf choked down the nastiness
And chased it with some meade
He quickly gated to Ibichi's
Knowing not even Immodium could impede
The pending bomb which was created
By a chef who gave recipes no head

Shabba held the elf up high
As he pointed his bottom towards the tank
The bluefish and the Coral
Saw two blue cheeks about to join their ranks

Just then the elf exploded
The muffins had worked so fast
But such is has been the experience
Of most tasting Skylark's repast

The tank turned a horrible hue
First to brown, then black, then green
By the time the water settled
Not a single living creature could be seen

Shabba and the elf laughed mightily
(After the elf fastened his pants)
Nothing could survive her cooking
The coral didn't even stand a chance

Shabba paid the blue man with fish steaks
Which were made before the plight
It seems elves are found of shark fins
And delicacies of the like

When the cajun floozi returned
Her poor tamer eyes did tear
The fishtank was discolored
For her fishies she did fear

The inspection confirmed her thoughts
As her anger began to swell
"I know that Tilly shat in here
Gosh damn him all to hell"

She set upon a punishment
Intended to harass
And remind her squatting tenant
Of the death caused by his a$$

She locked down two sets of bones
And left them as a trap
Knowing when Tilly returned
He would gripe and label them crap

So when Tilly had complained
She knew her plan had worked
But when she entered his fair room
She could not find the jerk

The fish she thought talked to her
And told her of the tale
Where they tricked ole Tilly once last time
And swallowed him like a whale

But what the floozi failed to realize
Was that the fish they did not speak
It was just her tenant Tilly
Hidden under the bed and whispering so meak

The floozi was contented
She had gotten her revenge
Tilly was no longer squatting
And the fish had secured his end

But nae my friends tis not true
I am laughing under my bed
Knowing how I destroyed the fishtank
And replaying the explosion in my head

*shakes head*

If only all that effort and creativity could be harnessed for good.

I would say he wins this exchange, too, Ibichi...however I am appalled at the blatant attempts to damage my reputation in this thread, first by Wulf, who accused me of terrible things (after I saved him from choking to death on a hairball even!) and then by Tilly, who has besmirched my honor as a chef (among other things
).

There are conspiracies on Siege! Conspiracies, I say! Even shenanigans!

*stomps off to draft special recipes a la Granny of the Beverly Hillbillies to serve Tilly for Thanksgiving dinner*

I see pointing to the corner did no good sooo *shoves wulf in the corner* sit and hush.

Skylark, we must come up with something to get to retaliate...but I am still at a loss. We just can not allow him to WIN UO like this.

I know! I hate that we might have to devote actual energy to this task, but justice sometimes demands sacrifices. The problem is, we are dealing with a depraved mind in our opponent, so the real issue is, how can we punish him, while at the same time ensuring that he doesn't enjoy it?

I have a feeling tonight's Vent session is going to be one to remember.

If we ever taped our Vent sessions the rest of the shard would be amazed at what goes on.

Hey D did I tell you Ibichi dropped the F bomb in vent the other night? And what is that on your face?

TIMMER!!! I only it said once and I was very tired and frustrated, besides you goaded me by trying to tell me what to do. Hell, ya'll say it all the time.

And to think we went through hours of hell to get that one stupid thing to make something that will be banked until the non existant pbd is had.
