[QUOTE="StupidSmurf, post: 2646039, member: 35893"] James You are absolutely correct. The town won't hold it against them. It's just that my players not only have big consciences, they like solving problems in such a way that it causes the minimal amount of grief to anyone around them (a lot of them are Chaotic Good). I probably should have done a better job of implying that this is a case of the players beating themselves up (right on the heels of them thinking they're so clever...bwahaha), rather than the NPCs calling the PCs on the carpet.
