He's just the author, what does he know? :) Because I am easily amused I am proposing an email poll on this question and some others that my mind has generated. Please send responses to me directly, NOT to the list. I'll post the results when I stop getting responses for a while. Question 1: Kragar =? Mario a) Kragar == Mario (Kragar came first) b) Mario == Kagar (Mario came first) c) Mario != Kragar Question 2: Looish =? Mario a) Looish == Mario b) Mario == Looish c) Mario != Looish Question 3: Rocza =? Mario a) Rocza == Mario b) Mario == Rocza c) Mario != Rocza Question 4: Did Kragar start the Dragon-Jhereg war?[0] a) Yes (and he was Mario at the time) b) Yes (but not as Mario) b) No c) Dunno Question 5: Who is the best in bed? a) Sethra b) Kiera c) Cawti d) Aliera e) The Necromancer f) Rocza [0]: If memory serves, a Jhereg assassin killed a Dragonlord and sheltered in the home of a dragonlord. What if Kragar killed a rival and wasn't noticed, causing an assassin to be blamed, then was accused of sheltering in the home of a Dragonlord (his own)? -- Matthew Hunter (matthew at infodancer.org) Public Key: http://matthew.infodancer.org/public_key.txt Homepage: http://matthew.infodancer.org/index.jsp Politics: http://www.triggerfinger.org/index.jsp
