I don't think Karosis got the water. There is no strike through, meaning no sale, I think he wont be receiving his 10 free goods and 10,000 dinari ;)

Why do you say that?


I don't see where he bought any water. What contract? the last 2 line items g61v and g62r are still open. Did he buy water from a different contract? Am I missing something? Where did his water come from?

I mean why do you think he won't get the goods just because he may be a bit short on water?

Oh, well he seemed to be saying he needed water from his allies... I took that to mean that in order to survive the night he needed the water. He has a bounty on his head. I assume he will be under extreme duress tonight.

Doesn't add up. You don't die from lack of water at night. And even if he ran out he'd just lose some retainers at dawn not die outright. I'm wondering if this were a bit of a slip...

What do you mean? If he has no water and is raided at night down to 0 water, he dies.

Why would he be raided down to 0 water?

huh? I asked the question why Karosis was saying he got his water, when on the bazaar no water was sold. But you can take from that what you will.

Are you dense, or just strawmanning. You said you don't die from lack of water. I said that you do die from lack of water. that's all. Nice strawman Ruse. You are being purposefully moronic here.

And you are doing a poor job of trying to divert attention from your slip by accusing me of strawmanning. But I specifically said "You don't die from lack of water at night." and then you randomly tossed out that he would be raided down to 0 water - which still would not kill him at night so why would you have that on the brain huh?

Without water he would die at dawn, since water consumption comes before any production, including that of water. And the idea of Karosis getting raided at night is silly, with the Khalif's Justice in place.

Sigh... listen well class.

1. The raider could be on a tile that does not have the khalif's justice.

2. There are like 5 different things Karo could do between now and dawn to get the water he didn't get off the market though probably at greater cost.

3. He still will not die at dawn unless he has 0 water. Even if he were raided (which Olar Ethil just throws out of nowhere as a justificiation for thinking Karo will surely be dead???) who is to say that the raiders will leave him with 0 water rather than 3?

I'm going to play along for a sec.

Since you seem to be arguing semantics, please show where I said he "would be raided down to 0 water". I was replying directly to your statement which said that you can't die from lack of water. I will grant you that I didn't register the "at night" part.


This is all besides the fact that your base logic is flawed. Why would a Khanate raid a GoB player. They are allied.

My initial question was simply trying to determine where Karosis got his water as he stated on thread. There is no Bazaar transaction that would indicate as such.

You are retarded. I am done with this. You are putting words into my mouth. Where did I say he would surely be dead? I was giving an example of why he might have 0 water left and need the water. Learn to read.

You really are quibbling here Ruse. All I wanted to say is that 0 water at dawn = dead.
