The day began with a surprise.
Tramping into the arena with the warriors girding themselves for a fifth round of battle for the Dope was a fresh face. One Darth Sensitive joined them as if he had every right to be there, carrying a large pack on his back.
Even as discussion was joined and Darth jumped in with both feet, he was unpacking the contents of his haversack. He had, when he came in, brought not pie, but the one and only working model of the
ACME PIE CONSTRUCTOR.
In between contributing to the discussion, the Constructor made a whole range of mouthwatering pies from a store of simple ingredients, setting flavour, consistency of crust and filling, temperature and size with the machine’s simple to understand controls.
The debate, meanwhile, started slowly. Perhaps because of the certainty of the extra time the hardware guys had wrung out of the server, things were a bit muted. By the 72 hour mark, accusations were flying thick and fast. At various points Zsofia, Hero from Sector 7G and Pleonast looked like possible candidates for banning; but the day wore on and still the servers continued to function.
The sudden crash took everyone by surprise, coming as it did in a lull from the hectic debate that had raged. Total Lost was at the Pie Constructor at the time, still arguing that she was a simple Townsperson. Just as she was setting the size controls for her extra-thick triple-choc cream pie (made with the heavy cream) the lights went out, messing up her size selection (she went from a 1’ diameter to the largest, SuperExtraLarge, size.
Being a little distracted by her position as the banning choice of the majority of people with a preference, she failed to notice that she had set the machine up to produce the pie with the crust upwards.
WHOOOOM!
When vision was restored, the pie lay where it had been produced, and everyone was picking themselves up and looking in awe at the pie, almost as high as the average man, and twice that in diameter. It took a minute or so to realise that TotalLost could not be seen, By the time that they remembered she had been at the Pie Constructor and worked together to lift the pie up, Total Lost had been drowned by her own pie.
Total Lost, aka Legion Demon, a Member of the SDMB (Town), has met a messy fate.
