    Too easy. Exercisng tears your muscles in order to make you stronger. Your wish is granted, but you're stuck as you are now, unable to get stronger, faster or any other physical improvment. You're also unable to shave, as your hair cannot be cut. I wish for a Pancake, on a ceramic dinner plate. Neither plate nor pancake can exceed 80 degrees Fahrenheit in temperature, nor be below 50 degrees in the same. Neither plate nor pancake can be moving when considered relative to my body. The pancake cannot contain any ingredients that would cause me physical, mental, spiritual, social or emotional harm. Neither plate nor pancake can exceed 1 foot in diameter, or one inch in height.

    There are no secret purchaseable items. So you can buy a ledger, warrant, dagger, medkit or drug.

    Actually, that's just poor wording on my part. You can't vote on arrested players. Sorry. EDIT: Only one player may 'Visit' Jail per turn.

    Violates the rule about what the genie can affect. Hoid was not part of the wish, so The genie can't affect him. This isn't Boon/Bane. This is rules Lawyer. As for the wish itself: Too easy. Granted. You now want to be able to travel instantly between the Cosmere and RL with no cooldown, cost or penalty. You can't, you juts want to. Gotta be more clear on the wording. I wish to have perfect memory, meaning the ability to remember everything with all five senses, and recall it at will. In addition, I wish for any necessary physical changes in order to enable me to have this memory. No part of this wish may negatively impact my physical body, including my brain and ability to think.

    You can speak in the Jail doc. You can talk to anyone there. You just can't talk here.

    As of this turn, that is an action you can take. He wanted to, and I saw no reason to stop him.
  7. Jo and the Bush
    Mailliw is in Jail right now! He's not been arrested, but he's visiting. He cannot talk in this thread, nor can he open PM's. He cannot use any items during his stay. He CAN be targeted by items and/or arrested.

    T7: Regrets in the Senate “You will release senator Trump from his cell, now, Constable Yosef.” “I’m sorry sir, but that will not be happening.” Governor Alron and Constable Yosef glared at each other across Yosef’s desk. Alron had slammed his hands down on the desk in an attempt to intimidate the Constable, But Yosef’s height made it infeasible. He stood an easy head above the governor, and glared down at him from behind the desk where he had been working. “Governor, all the senators behind bars have been found guilty of some crime or another. Dyson’s was embezzlement. He may not have been involved in Matthew’s murder, but he is a criminal.” “The entire Senate is voting for his release!” “It will not happen!” He paused, then added “Sir.” as an afterthought. Alron dropped his head to his chest, clenching his fists on the desk as he exhaled slowly. He carefully sat down in the chair before the desk, and gestured for Yosef to do the same. “Constable, I respect your desire to punish your friend’s killers, but imprisoning senators who have done nothing wrong is not the way to do it. And, if you recall, I outrank you, and can strip you of your position.” “Let me set something straight, sir. I took this position to protect my friend. I failed that. I have absolutely no intention to keep this job after this mess is done. But until then, I will happily, abuse my authority in order to take down the corrupted. The constables follow me. If I order them to, they will arrest you without hesitation. No force in the Cosmere can make us release the senators.” “At least get him a lawyer. He won’t shut up about that.” “Fine. He’ll get a rusting Lawyer.” Alron trudged into the Senate hall to find it in a heated debate. He pressed a hand to his forehead and repressed the urge to swear. Being Governor wasn’t nearly worth it. It had some perks, but too much thankless responsibility came with it. He was ignored as he made his way to his desk and sat down in it. He frowned at what appeared to be a yelling match between Liram and Elentari. He gestured for one of his constables to come over. “Give me your baton.” “Sir?” “Just give it. It won’t leave your sight” The Constable gingerly handed it over. Alron twirled it in his hands once, feeling it’s weight, then slammed it onto his desk with an almighty CRACK of sound. The entire Senate Hall quieted instantly as Senators jumped, froze or spun to face the noise. Alron handed the baton back to the constable then stood up. “Alright, what is going on?” Liram stepped forward, and was immediately yanked backwards by Elentari who began to speak rapidly. “Liram is falsely claiming that I am one of the Senators who helped kill Machmuller. He has falsified evidence against me. He is the murderer, not I.” Alron turned. “Liram?” “I went through his papers, her ledgers, everything. There’s no doubt about it sir. She spent a large sum of money on smuggling the same type of poison into this building. More money was spent on hiring a burglar to administer the poison to Machmuller’s drink. She’s the murderer.” Alron rubbed his eyes and gave up on repressing the urge to swear. Both of these senators were trusted confidants of his. And now they were turned against each other? He was beginning to see why Yosef refused to release any of the senators. Even the innocent ones were Irritants. “And how goes the Senate itself? Who believes Elentari?” Elentari looked around eagerly, but no one raised a hand in support. The senator slowly turned back around, shoulders drooping in defeat. Alron just grunted. “And who believes Liram?” Five senators roes their hands quietly. Alron sucked in a breath and nodded. “Right then. Constables, Take Senator Elentari away for interrogation and incarceration.” Elentari’s head shot upwards. “You’ll get me out right? Once I’m proven innocent? Like you’re doing with Trump?” Alron winced. “Um, I’ll. . . Yeah. I’ll get you out.” The lie sounded hollow, even to him. Elentari heard it too. The hope in her eyes slowly faded away, and her whole body drooped. “Oh. Okay.” She turned, and shuffled away, lead by the constables. Alron stared after her, even after the door closed behind them. Had he made the right choice? Or had he just arrested yet another ally? “Sir?” Liram’s voice registered. It sounded like it had been trying to get his attention for some time. Alron? Are you okay?” He turned back to face Liram, noticing that the senate hall was now empty except for him and Liram. “No. Things are just, weighing me down. I don’t think we did the right thing, Yosef refuses to budge on releasing the innocents, and well, other things I’ve done.” Liram sat on the corner of the desk and sighed. “I feel you. I became a senator to help the city, not ruin the lives of the other senators.” “I hope you’re right about Elentari, but at the same time, I know you’re not. And that worries me.” “Alron, I didn’t lie. Elentari is corrupt. We finally got one!” The doors opened, and a constable came in, holding a roll of parchment in his hand. He crossed the empty hall and saluted, dropping the parchment on the desk. “These are all the crimes Elentari confessed to Sir. A few petty crimes, a small touch of bribery. Things that everyone has done at some point in their life. But there was nothing at all about Machmuller. By all reports, She was a friend of his.” Liram stared at the Constable, while Alron unrolled the parchment and read it. Rust, he’d committed worse crimes than the ones listed here. He let the parchment fall from his grasp, and dropped his head to the desk. He’s done the wrong thing. “Sir?” “Leave me. Both of you. I need to think.” There was a pause, then the scuffle of footsteps and the sound of a door closing. The Governor of Elendel, the most powerful man in the Basin, was alone at the top. LUNA was stabbed to death Elbereth was a Senator.

    There are no Hidden powers that can interfere in a scan.
  11. Jo and the Bush
    Can you build an aon bigger than the country it is based on?
  12. Jo and the Bush
    It was mentioned nowhere. It was simply mentioned that there are secret rules pertaining to the Constabulary and the Holding Cells.

    I am mentally exhausted now.

      Eek, I'm sorry.

  14. Jo and the Bush
    Added. All PM's have been sent. I was a bit rushed this time due to familial responsibilities, so there may be mistakes. I'm still rechecking everything, and new things may be added to the write up. I will post a notice if something does get added.

    T6: Power in the Senate! Cheering broke out across the senate floor. The smell of wine filled the room as the triumphant politicians poured each other wine. Senators greedily counted their money as others lined up to shake hands with the newly inaugurated Governor Alron. His grin was wide as he shook hands, clapped backs and gave sincere and overdue thank yous. When the last of the senators had resumed their seat, Alron stood up, vacating the seat he had fought to sit in for so long. He promised himself it was only temporary, he would sit there again. But first, he had a speech to give. “My dearest supporters, Ladies and Gentlemen of the Senate. I thank you for the aid you have given me! Together, with myself at the chair, we can save our city from the corruption that has so wholly infected it!” “As my first order of business, I call Senator Sanderson to the Stand!” The senators parted, giving Biorney Sanderson room to approach the aisle. He walked confidently to the governor’s desk, and kissed the offered hand. “Are you sure you want to do this Biorn? I can’t get you out of there. Yosef won’t let me.” “Thank you friend, but It needs to happen.” “Very well. Senator Biorney Sanderson. You wish for us to arrest you on this day?” “I do Your Governorship. I need to focus more on the information I have received, and I need to prove my own innocence. Would a corrupt senator offer himself up like this? No. He would not.” “Very well. Constable-General Yosef, please approach the Desk.” The General snapped to attention and walked stiffly forward. He saluted as he stopped beside the senator. “Orders sir?” “Please, escort Senator Sanderson to the Holding Cells. Treat him with care and respect, for he is my friend, and I know for certain that he did not kill my predecessor.” The Constable saluted again, then turned to face Senator Sanderson, who raised his wrists to be shackled. “No, no shackles. If the governor will vouch for you, and you’re willing to volunteer to be arrested, I’ll let you walk unhindered. You have my respect Senator, which is hard to earn. Please, follow me.” The Constable and the Senator left the room. Alron sighed as he sank back into his chair. “That is all for now. Return to your duties, and we shall meet again soon.” FireMuffin was Stabbed to death! Amanuensis was a Senator! Alvron was voted governor! Votes: Amanuensis: 8 : Amanuensis, Kyne, LUNA, Mark IV, Elodin, Orlok, Lopen, Wonko.

    Time! Thank you for the forewarning you two.
  17. Jo and the Bush
    A Bit less than Half an hour left. Please, if you're planning last minute votes, orders, send me a PM.
  18. Jo and the Bush
    Sure. One attempt per wish makes sense. Who wants to make a wish? I think it's technically nowhere's turn again, as he broke his own wish using quantum magic. (Anything involving Quantum anything is magic to me.)

    Why? I only read the first book haven't seen the movie. But I couldn't stand the first book. I was cringing the whole time, and I disliked the portrayal of the gods and the complete hand waving required for all the Mythology required. Again, there never was a movie of Eragon. It's like Avatar. Avatar the Movie (The blue aliens one) is completely different than the Tv Show Avatar.

    Again people, Check for Ninja's! I don't think that works. Lava isn't at 300 Degree's Kelvin, and is above the required 2.5 micrometer wavelength. I think. I'm not a scientist though. And no. Wish not granted.
  21. Jo and the Bush
    I knew that would happen. First off, we really need to check for Ninja's people. I know it takes a long time to write out our wishes, but some wishes aren't getting granted. Now, for your wish. . . .Uh, the Diamonds all appear as stated but in an imbalanced pile, causing most of them to fall out of your hands and onto the floor. I can't think of anything else. I think that might be a winning wish. Can anyone think of anything else? I'll let someone else grant this, because I'm not certain how to grant this. Does that require changing you to one of Brandon's RL friends, retroactively making you win one of the auctions he does (Like the one that created Yomen) or something else entirely? Since I didn't break either of the two most recent wishes, I won't make one till I do.

    Too lazy to go Wiki. Remind me how Polyjuice potion works again? Oh, I was asking if you've read the book of Percy Jackson.

    The genie attempts to follow your wish, but cannot put it in your pocket as he forgets about it's existence in compliance with your wish as soon as it is created. In order to follow the wish, the fact that you made the wish is also erased. Granted. The plate and pie are given to you, but the plate is currently 999 degrees celsius. I wish for a glass of water. The glass and water should both be 70 degrees Fahrenheit, and stationary in relation to the planet. The glass should be smooth enough to not cut my hand, weigh no more than 5 pounds, but no less than a tenth of a pound. The water should be composed of H2O. The water will be inside the glass, and fill it completely. The glass should be put in an upright position, one centimeter above my table.

    You learn something every day. I wish to be transported instantaneously to Main Street @ Fulton Rd, in my hometown, while maintaining my current velocity and physical position.
