I especially like the fragrant dung, statuette and non-sequitur. What happens when you plant rifle seeds?<br /><br />Here via +scrap's signal boost. The main thing that's bothered me so far is the exchange rate, especially between games with gold or silver standards. Scarcity is scarce in general among flailsnailers, and although a lot of worlds out there are supposed to be poverty-stricken, there's always one millionaire in every party for whom buying a few sets of plate is a no-brainer.
