[QUOTE="Janos Audron, post: 1142061, member: 4649"] [Glad you read it, not so glad you choose to ignore the warning. Janos isn't holding back.] "Ah, now we're getting somewhere. Your interpretation, though entirely logical is not what I meant. What is want to prevent is a situation where you go in and return after two hours, telling me you didn't find anything. Though you may have searched for two hours, I think his mansion is big enough to spend a week searching and not having seen everything...I trust your oath, but Jack's ... enthousiasm can also backfire. No offense Jack." "The second part is a little more complicated. See, I've been keeping my eye on him, and I haven't seen him remove the body from his house. This implies that the body is still inside, and thus *could* be recovered. However, if you spend a week in the mansion and you return to me, telling me that you were unable to find any evidence, then I will trust you and pay you your hundred gold pieces. Then keywords in that sentence were: "too soon"." "Obviously, you've seen more in my words than I wished that you saw, however, your explanation was a little far fetched, so let's not give me the title 'Mr. Stupid' just yet..." "And Quickwhip, let me give you a piece of advice, which you can turn into a lifelesson: Having ideals is good: it gives you something to live for.
