As I log in this morning to check my Wentworth's consignments...

Random Guy: can u do ae farming for me plz
Me: Now why would I do that?
Random Guy: so i could lvl up plz
Me: Dear heavens. Is the game too difficult for you to level up the regular way?
Random Guy: YES!!!
Me: Then maybe you should find another game. Might I suggest "Chutes & Ladders"?
Random Guy: ...


Where do we go from here?

I have gotten those sorts of requests while I was logged on to lvl 1 experimental market mule.
[I am seeing how much I can make off of a single market slot. I am up to just over 500mil in profit with a bid out.]

I just tell people "Sorry, but I only do free-range organically farmed inf."

Typically I get a "lol" in response, and they don't ask me again. I find the CoX agricultural community is rather pleasant, really, compared to the cutthroat agrarian industry that one finds in other locales.

Since I speak the language, I used to hang out in Ironforge advertising English-to-Chinese translation services, profanity and insults a speciality...

Dude, have you played Chutes and Ladders since they updated it for modern kids?

The lava pools, and "Broken Rung" cards make that game a LOT harder than it used to be. Plus, now if you roll doubles on two consecutive rolls you're attacked by a Plague Pigeon and have to go back to the start!

I like the house rule limiting you to one "Broken Rung" card a turn. I find it helps reign in the play style you get (similar to Munchkin actually) where everyone holds onto their "screw you" cards and tosses them at the last minute to stop someone winning resulting in the winner being the person who happens to score when everyone else has run out of cards.
