Ewwww…spoiled squid. I am kicking myself for never for a second thinking that Pleo might have been the seer. I was so puzzled that he kept sticking to his bizarre case on me while seeming so sensible about every other aspect of the game! Well played, sir. ---

I’m still fresh. I hope it doesn’t take as long to get spoiled as it took to get access to the wolf boards. ---

If I ever play in one of these again, I’m gonna use my powers (if any) however I want. I wanted to throw the switches last night. Perhaps could have saved us? Spoil me. ---

I’ll ask to be Spoiled too. No, I don’t know what that means. Hopefully it means someone tells me who killed me. ---

Doubly good since even translated its not immediately obvious what it means. > > It started off a a princess bride reference and sort of expanded to mean any decision where the outcome in uncertain. Thank you! (WIFOM explanation) I understood the context after a while, but never got the actual meaning or the background. ---
