[QUOTE="Mr Vergee, post: 2018191, member: 13474"] 'Yes, Charles' when someone starts analyzing every possible and impossible angle to a situation, especially when making hypotheses on what might be going on. Based on a character Charles Goodfellow who used to do just that: Okay, there are three possibilities; firstly ... 'Somewhere between three and five', if you want to say four (or insert any other numbers you want, always using one more and one less). Based on a former DM, who answered the question 'How many are there?' with 'somewhere between three and five'. The players' obvious respons was: 'You mean four, Eric.' 'Are you okay?' A question that is asked eveytime a PC has something unpleasant happen to him. It was first used in our last campaign. One of the PCs had been looking for his lost love all campaign long (we're speaking five years of playing time here) and finally found her in the last adventure, only to find out she was getting married to some bad guy. When the PC went in to talk to her and came back from a very emotional confrontation, the question was launched, some twenty times or so. Now it has become somewhat of an icon question in our group.
