It's a common response when someone asks an In-Game question, Out-Of-Game, like "What class is Max Nimblefoot?"  It's one thing to ask a rules question, but the dread "FOIG!" is usually reserved for people who A) have been playing for ages and should know better, B) Ask something that posted clearly on the website in the In-Game section already, or C) Ask a question that would lead to serious metagaming issues ("Who plays a Necromancer?  I want to learn new spells!").


This is also sometimes known as being Royroll'd

Completely separate from the park regulations, there are strict "open space" requirements, the area of which is a function of the shell size.  Nothing exists of the appropriate size where we are at the IG section of Hickory Run, thus the very prudent ban on fireworks.

So we're back to witch burnings or spectacularly pyrotechnically induced executions of goblins.

"Ok we can attack... but if we miss, we'll hit the villagers."
"I'm willing to take that chance!"

Things I am no longer allowed to do in an RPG :
31. The backup trap handler is not whoever has the most HP at the time.
73. Not allowed to name my cudgel Ceremonial Whoopass Stick.
74. My thief's battle cry is not "Run And Live"

Probably a good idea to drop the fireworks discussion at this point.
Please do not bring any fireworks to the event.

thank you!

I hate to say it but Geezer does know of what he speaks as he is actually a licensed pyrotechnic and has actually gotten paid for working firework shows; and he still has all his fingers too!

And ironically, after I'm the one who brought it up, it looks like I probably won't be at the July event :-P.

Was looking forward to showing off my new weapons too T_T.

If you still want to do something, I can bring a small box of tea that you can throw into a stream. After that, I'll claim a table in the name of Londwyn, and you can chase me off it. :)

How about hiring some mercenaries, then killing them in their sleep? We'll tell them there will be presents for them in the morning.

The holiday section does say that hobbits will hold Feasting Days throughout the year on a schedule that only hobbits can understand.

Perhaps the little folk could hold an event describing how the Great Hobbit Warlord Ambrose Greenbottle defeated the vile water elemental Aquaticus.

After all, it's well known that Aquaticus would capture hobbits and throw them into his very deep Pool of Horrors where he would force them to thrash about vainly trying to reach the edge.

Once the Great Hobbit Warlord Ambrose Greenbottle successfully defeated Aquaticus, he announced that a celebratory party would be held with much drinking and dancing and carousing.  Warlord Ambrose, being a bit of a crackpot inventor and alchemist, distributed inflatable water-wings to all his hobbit friends.  To this day, hobbits practice the dances learned that night.  This Feasting Day would be a day to celebrate those events. 

It will be known as Happy In-Deep-End-Dance Day...

After that horrendous pun (thank you, Larry0 NO ONE should ever complain about mine again.

And, Tom, we only killed a few Hessians, who should not have been sleeping.  Fortunately for the Colonialists, Col. Rall did not bother to read the note he was given the night before.  BTW, he was one of the casualties.
