88168, Bartis's story
Posted by Gzurweeg on Wed 31-Dec-69 07:00 PM
Preface before we start the trolling :)
I rarely did full loot. I think maybe twice or three times in my life. Right now I can recall doing that only to Malakhi and Bartis.
This episode was not the sole reason for that, it was just the last nail. I won't go in specifics, but I had similar issues with Bartis as with Malakhi. I just can't myself force to love villagers who prefer to fight tribunals in Galadon istead of raiding cabals full or their enemies. I'm not saying that Bartis was very bad in that respect. In fact, I think he was a very good villager. If I wouldn't have those kind of issues with him I would call him "great".

As for the log. Maybe I was wrong with my assumptions, as I can only see things from my eyes, but I didn't feel he was actually trying to escape. I saw him in a room with the same name (though there are several rooms with that name) for a while (2-3 ticks) and I couldn't summon him because he was in a fight each time I tried.

While I don't think that was the top moment in my life. Based on partial info I have, I wouldn't call it the douchiest thing of this year.

The trees are even closer together, if that is possible. The trunks creak
when the wind blows across the tops of the trees, lending a strange cacophony

disregard the vines, but the howls of the hunting wolves seem to surround you in
your fear. The path bends to the north and to the west here.
