So does anyone know what's up with this?

I was imbedding some blank Ranger imbeds and everything was going fine until suddenly when trying to imbed a blank Ranger rod I get the error message "You are not mentally prepared to imbed a spell in that." I made sure I was not using my, the rod took the 420 cast, and I even tried several wands all with the same error message. However if I tried to imbed a blank Ranger amulet it worked just fine.

Waited a few minutes and rods starting working fine again too.

Is there like some sort of limit to the type of imbeddables you can imbed within a time frame or something? Like you can only do 4 rods/wands within a 5 minute period then you have to wait 5 minutes or something? Are not all Ranger rods imbeddable, even though they accept the 420 spell? Do I just suck? Is it something else? Someone help me out here!

I don't know about you, but I'd certainly be securing representation for legal action concerning this.

Shit! I really should have thought of a better title than 420 woes. I guess it is kind of misleading.

Not everyone wants to know about Hitler's birthday after all.

It's been like that forever. I don't know what it is exactly, but there does seem to be some sort of time limitations. I used to use the arrows to repeat actions, including altering the spell number as needed, and I would get that error often. Slowing it down seemed to help.

Hmm. You mean like don't imbed too many things in a row?

Didn't they put xp gain back on imbeds? Or am I just conflating something else.

Yeah. Before scripting was cool, I'd just smash the up arrow a few times to cycle through the commands to prep, cast, and all the other fun stuff to hammer them out quick. I guess imbed and quick don't play nicely for some goofy reason. It would be nice to get some official clarification on what can cause that error.

Only other thing I could think of would be that it's somehow targeting the wrong item despite the syntax being correct (which it has to be, since it occurs after successfully imbedding items and the only thing that MIGHT change is the spell number). How that might then correct itself, who knows? It could also be tied to xp gains, I guess, but that's also time-related and you don't have to wait terribly long before you can go again, so that would be a weird restriction (but, Simu...).

I think so. It's pitiful, though (or was; I've been gone a long time). You might do better by putting trash in the trash cans.
