boun
You bounce around happily.
>swea
You swear in a fluid mixture of common and elven that would make a spike-thorn take pause.
>bount

Damn the little "t" on the end

My relatively staid characters have bounced because of this discrepancy. They changed it so 'k' defaulted to kill, not kiss, why can't they make 'boun' default to bounty?

Doesn't it just automatically default to the first parsable choice, alphabetically? kill before kiss, bounce before bounty, etc.

Nah, it used to be 'k' would default to kiss.

There are a few notable exceptions, such as cardinal directions and things like l for look. Either way TheE seems confused because Kill is prior to Kiss...

Nah, it used to be 'k' would default to kiss.I'm pretty sure the problem used to be that people tried to "l <name>" and hit k instead of l... leading to awkward moments. I don't remember anyone ever trying to kiss a kobold or something (besides Edaarin, obviously).

Evarin randomly snorts a lot, as I will type s, then change my mind and attempt to go north.

Using the number pad seems to alleviate that problem for me.
Yay USB keyboards.

Seriously, people who type out directions are weird.

But easy solution = PSINET ALIAS boun=bounty

Same as when you type NOD and hit the space bar before you get the OD after the N and you see yourself heading North.

I don't know how many times I've seen standing around in TSW in the landing grabbing my armband and looking around purposefully instead of going into the arch at the bank

Heres a good one...someone lay a bandana infront of the bank and watch me walk towards a bandana instead of the bank.

I always miss the d for gld and end up glaring with my characters. PITA.

So they should change boun for bounty instead of bounce? they could, or you could do what bob said. or you could just fucking type bounty!
