53828, I didn't like this character.

My first interaction with you was being gaunted and killed. Not a huge deal. As I was unghosting though and working out a bug with Twist, you gaunted again. The gaunting of the newly unghosted is pretty lame.
53830, That must have been a bug...

You cant gaunt someone that has recently died. You get an echo about their life energy being too low. I have tried even 15 minutes after someone has unghosted with no results.
53832, This is correct.

I want to say it's a circa 30 minute safety window after dying, but it doesn't stay with you partially-burned after quitting the way being a ghost does now.

Actually... did you log on as a ghost? I bet the nightgaunt code was never switched over to account for new-style ghosting.
53834, I may very well have.

I died a ####TON as Depoetsende. Better than half the time I was logging in as a ghost. In this instance though, it was a continuous login. There was no logout from the time he killed me the first time till the second gaunt. I spent most of that time with Twist working out the bug I found. (We did get it worked out too, and yeah it was buggy)
53837, The rest of the story....

Don't forget that you had been duoed because you were expecting to get gaunted, and I forced you to unduo to work out the bug, and you got gaunted. I was actually going to slay the gaunt but my fingers were too slow.

Also don't forget that I went to Baerlias, explained the situation, and he left everything in your corpse at my request.

Yeah I was expecting him to re-gaunt after I unghosted, since he'd done it before so I was in duo. as for him not looting...Well it's just not a good idea to ignore a request from an insane magic god. ;)
