The Kugelblitz will be updated once the council gets back to me with the answer to my question . Hey RC, any news on that front?

We're working on it now.

[Radio Controlled]

Does anyone know how many friable wishes there are left?

[spazyak]

Does anyone know how many friable wishes there are left?

probably 10.

[Radio Controlled]

23:23   <Radio_Controlled>: Hey people, quick question.
23:23   <Shaporian>: Shoot.
23:24   <Radio_Controlled>: If the team fund were to send a couple friable wishes to Hep, and sell the rest in a controlled way so people can do that little fusion dance (but ensuring there will only be willing participants), does that sound like a good idea?
23:24   <Shaporian>: Selling them to people sounds risky.
23:25   <Radio_Controlled>: Controlled, of course.
23:25   <Shaporian>: Even with strict guidelines.
23:25   <Shaporian>: If you lock them in a room when they're doing it, I suppose it could work, though it should be quite expensive.
23:25   <Shaporian>: (and we should actually confirm all the candies do the same thing)
23:26   <Radio_Controlled>: As in, people first have to enter a room without any equipment, which is then sealed from the outside. Participants are asked beforehand if they're doing it willingly. Pill is dropped once room is securely closed off.
23:26   <Shaporian>: That'll work, yeah.

Preliminary opinions?

[Twinwolf]

Petra will not agree with anyone asking. Otherwise, sounds cool.

[Hapah]

I'd be amazed if you got any takers.

[spazyak]

I would like one token from the selling. Just one and a video feed of the results, hell I'ld just take the video feeds.

[Harry Baldman]

I'd be amazed if you got any takers.

You say that like people wouldn't want to die and pay for it, too.

Though that does raise a question - what if there's one living person in a room and a bunch of corpses, and they eat a Friable Wish? Does it absorb the bodies, or do they need to be individuals?

[Parisbre56]

Just remind anyone taking them that the results will probably not be the same, since each pill has a different colour.
And that if the results are the same, there is a high chance of death or them not becoming part of the collective.

[Nikitian]

My suggestion: Let us on Hephaestus test at least a single more pill, and then draw conclusions from at least two points of data. Because, for all we know, those pills' effects could be randomly determined each time one is consumed, just like Amiable Amber. Then it would have been the only flesh-melding pill among them, I suppose.

We'll get a triangle trade going. Newbies will come to me and test the Deathcube for pay, which they'll spend on one of Radio's pills, which will kill them and make them a newbie again. So they come to me to test the Deathcube for pay...

Could be! Then again, at the rate testing happens there, we won't see the results for another three years!

[Harry Baldman]

I wonder where they even found the Friable Wishes, actually. Must have been a fun mission.

[Twinwolf]

Nyartifact, I think?

[spazyak]

BY all means I could've just gave them the schizophrenia pills that the friable wishes was switched out for, hint hint, hint hint!

[Radio Controlled]

Yeah, first sending a bunch to Hep was my idea as well, I said as much in the irc log, no? I'm starting to think a similar approach for the pill machine (aka lock user up in a room with a big blast door) might be needed, though I think I'll leave that be as is for the moment. Just trying to find a balance between allowing things to remain in-game for potential hilarity, but not let things be a lawless wasteland where men are forced into the collective against their will.
