They mentioned that they would observe the patrols and find a pattern. I informed them that they could see 2 different patrols, one to the north, one directly beneath them. Both patrols stayed in their patrol areas and didn't move beyond them. Someone asked if they should make a distraction...ignored. No one scouted ahead looking for other patrols. They could only see the west grounds and the northern area where the servant quarters were. There was a big house between them and the patrol to the south and the patrol to the east. So, when they moved around to the north (without scouting ahead, once again), they cast a silence spell so they wouldn't get heard, and then jumped over the wall to the north...just in time to get noticed by the patrol to the east turning the corner and running into them.The contention is that they took reasonable precautions. I challenge that opinion and provide reasons why their precautions weren't reasonable.</blockquote>
