Ser Not Appearing Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 6 hours ago, Jez Bell said: Bonus Round 3.1 - Kitten Adoption 1) Adorable niche incarnate mousetrap. Adopt, love. 2) Ser opts for transfer! 3) Puss’s likely undiscovered Schrödinger half-lifer! 4) Special obsidian feline treasure. 5) Purrrrrr... love us... Seeking home! Please vote for your favorite. (Vote for one entry only, please. Feel free to provide positive feedback for the rest). You still get a point for voting, even if you didn't play. So please show some love. Thanks for all the entries. I'm glad I don't have to choose. 1. It's a call to adopt and a nice mousetrap usage, albeit generic to cats overall. 2. Specific to Ser Pounce and a mildly sarcastic way to refer to adoption. 3. Schrodinger reference is great, frankly. 4. Heading style and the only color reference. 5. Adoption plea, lovable though generic. All of these are honestly pretty good. I think I favor the specifics in 2 and 4. I'd vote for both but will change my mind now that I'm typing this and will go with #4. So: 4 is my vote Jez Bell 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Castellan Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 (edited) This is like choosing a real kitten from a litter. By choosing one I feel I am rejecting four perfectly good kittens that need a home. I was very tempted to go for #5 because kittens can advertise themselves very well and this is how they do it. But I'll go for the cleverness of "incarnate mousetrap". so, voting for #1.

Jez Bell Posted March 21 Author Share Posted March 21 (edited) Round 4 For Sale: Joramun's horn aka the Horn of Winter. A legendary piece with magical properties. A large warhorn, this one is so loud that it can wake giants. Please don't toot indoors. It's impolite and it may cause structural damage to the walls and foundations of your property. A lovely decorative addition to your mantle that could also be used to display autumn fruits and gourds.

There was a chaise that I was looking at, where the description said "the most beautiful clothes horse you will every own". I thought it was clever, so I bought it. It is indeed almost always covered in clothes. Edited March 22 by Jez Bell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasn't sarcastic or ironic. I really am not sure what it was, the words just came out to match the letters. I think because i was using 'acrobatic' or 'athletic' in an entry I made with the ANIMAL letters I was thinking in terms of sports and that the athletic Ser had hinted at interest in a transfer to another team - so here is your opportunity if you have the money! Then Jez read it and interpreted that Ser wanted out of the toxic Red Keep, so that was a good intepretation too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
