Everytime I see these pins I'm always reminded of that book from when I was a kid...

also 8m for a goat pin is absurd

Durfin, I'd like to introduce you to the goat pin's cousin. Ground, meet Durfin. Durfin, Ground.

Does not matter anyway, someone already bought it. My guess is that they saw Kgolfer's post, ran and bought it and will try and sell it to me later today for 10.

Still looking...and no, not paying 10mil.

are there really not enough barrels around to spend 8 million on a personal one?

You can always roll up a sorcerer and have four (yes, four!) methods of getting rid of shit.

fixed. and i guess it's for RPing purposes. I personally think they're cool as shit, but definitely not worth the 8m.

I think it's funny that people will pay millions for altered fluff that is non-functional. Someone goes looking for a goat pin because it's functional and can be part of roleplay and suddenly it's a stupid item. As if kittens really DO anything.

And yeah, I'm biased toward goat pins. ;)

Got one.

I mainly wanted it for my rogue to pick sitting in my premium home. No trash can there and putting it on the boxes back on the ground screws up my picking script. Tables are great, you just drop it and do a "clean table" and the empties disappear. But, no tables on Teras. It is worth a few million to me to make the boxes go bye bye after he opens 'em.

I just threw up a little bit. If only there was a way to "unsee" things...maybe I would not have just gotten that wonderful visual.

Just in case you didn't know, the goatse pin won't eat certain boxes. I don't remember which ones, I just remember it turning its anus away from certain boxes.

correct me if I'm wrong (as I'm sure you all will), but doesn't the goat get "full" after a certain time period?

Well, first off it won't eat boxes that have been disarmed. Not sure about boxes with trap components pulled since my rogue is only at 33rd rank of lockmastery.

Also, it does not seem to like silver boxes either.

>detect my box
You carefully begin to examine a badly damaged silver box for traps...

The lock appears to be free of all obstructions.

>point goat at my box
Pointing your white goat pin at a badly damaged silver box you hold flat in the palm of your hand, you indicate the scrumptious morsel is for him if he would like it. You could swear it blinked before it turned its head away. It doesn't seem interested in that.

So far I am not very happy with the goat. I'm gonna hang on to it and see what happens when I can pull traps, but as of right now it is not doing the job that I thought it would.

Have you tried putting the uneaten box inside another one? If I recall correctly, that's how my rogue got around the one's that couldn't be eaten, just put it aside and drop it into the next one.

Yep. They don't care about the contents, just the main item. So if you see a box that they won't eat, put it in one you know they will. They love plain wood boxes so those are sure things.

Let me know if you plan on unloading it (for a non-absurd price).

actually my demon refuses to eat a lot of different types of boxes, void is the most non-discriminating trash method

NocturnalRob

void is the second most non-discriminating trash method

wastebasket, barrel, lava tube, town well, etc

You forgot Dwarves, gnomes, and halflings... Dwarves I've noted are alittle picky, but halflings, they'll eat anything that isn't nailed down, and alot of things that are!

You're right. I usually just sell my boxes. Recyclings better for Elanthia.

Major Sanctuary is a great way to unload trash too. Disposable rooms ftw.

And just to reiterate, putting a non goatse pin edible item into an edible goatse pin item does work.

If you want a real trash can though, try and talk Tsin out of my old black silk bag. Damn Krovax for selling it to him for $800 :(

Durgrimst

What is this black silk bag??

And if anyone is interested in a goat pin, let me know, I have one that I am willing to sell.

Methais
05-16-2008, 07:02 PM
Black silk bag...

Holds 170, lockable without a key (close and turn to lock it), eats the items inside it if locked and rubbed, creates scripted lint for every 10 or so items it eats, and auto-hides you in any room with a cool first and third person script (including sancts and rooms you normally can't hide in), but you have to be holding it to do that, so using it for ambush isn't really viable unless you can hunt without a shield. Has a nice show too. Don't remember the loresong for it. It came from the original Foehn's Promise.

Only item I ever had that I regret selling except perhaps the undead rattle.

That's about it. There are two others, a white one and a golden one. Reife has the golden one. Can't remember who had the white one. I wanna say Fisdan but I don't think that's correct.

Durgrimst
05-16-2008, 07:40 PM
That is a badass item.

My white goat pin eats every single box unless it's been disarmed, then it won't touch it. Won't touch herbs either.
