The Cowldryn Continues...

[Magus]

for bubbles, i think, It helps to understand the fireball rule in tandem.

The transformation rule is giving me trouble, but other than that i think i've got most of it so far. And i might have submitted a longer ingredient except that I was quite busy being distracted by... something else.

------------------
*Poof* Damn! I hate it when i say 'mute' instead of 'newt'!!!

[Werebear]

I'll post the fireball rule blatently. Any ingredient beginning with an even letter of the alphabet earns you a fireball. (BDFHJLNPRTVXZ).

Transformation ingredients are bubble ingredients that meet (or don't meet) certain criteria. No fireball ingredient has earned a transformation.

Bubbles - I don't know. *laugh* and I don't ahve the time to wrack my brain much.

[Faeriefire]

I have no idea about the rules, nor do I care, seeing as how others are doing the work.
I just enjoy throwing in neat stuff.

empty Sprite bottle

[Master Leviticus]

That afternoon, Master Leviticus was peacefully sitting down to nice cup of tea totally obilivious to the fact that total mayhem and chaos was about to break loose. It was around that time that Magus sauntered in. Wasting no time, he walked up to the lip of the cowldryn and tossed in Slithering Slimy Critters all was peaceful and the cowldryn spit out a single bubble with all calm and dignity. Next Magus tossed in Slimy slither Darkness which earned him the same treatment from the cowldryn as the last ingredient. Then with a smile, and a dangerous gleam in his eyes. Magus tossed in A Cat Entangled Gallons of Igloo Karma in Mediocre Oven Quarantines South of Utah Where You Ski! Still, it wasn't without some aid and many of our own cans were shot! If you ever make an attempt at gouging out your eyes, I want your stereo. The poor cowldryn let out some steam in concentrated burst, making ML jump with a rather undignified yelp. When all was said and done, Magus floated out on rather large cloud of 106 bubbles!. And I don't think that the poor castle will ever be the same. Later on that day, when things had settled down. That flying kitten FF sailed in. With a flourish she added a whole deviled egg, and empty sprite bottle and a Korean textbook. Suprisingly no clouds, windstorms, or large fairy engulfing bubbles ensued. With a resigned sigh the cowldryn spit out 19 bubbles. 9 bubbles for the first, 7 bubbles for the second, and for the last, 3 bubbles

You seem to be close, Magus. But, your still having trouble with the transformations? hmmm.... Would you do me a favor and send me how you think everything works? I'd love to know.

[Magus]

Well, given the treatment of the first two of my ingredients, My theory for the number of bubbles has burst. Back to the drawing board, i suppose.

oh, and
All Alligators Aerate Automatic Ailments
Cuddly Carnivorous Cats catch careful canaries
Evil Egotistic Egrets Elevate Enough Egos Elegantly

hmmm... i might have another idea about those bubbles...

------------------
*Poof* Damn! I hate it when i say 'mute' instead of 'newt'!!!

[Werebear]

I'll throw in Oblong, Obelisk, and Ooh! Octopi!

[Master Leviticus]

I don't have much time so this will be a short update.

Magus: For All Alligators Aerate Automatic Ailments you get 15 bubbles, For Culddly Carnivorous Cats Catch Careful Canaries gets you 12 bubbles and lastly, Evil Egotistic Egrets Elevatte Enough Eggs Elegantly you get 16 bubbles. Hint: If you had changed Evil to Angry, you would have improved you score.

Werebear: for Oblong you get turned into a newt. and for obelisk you get one bubble. Lastly for Ooh! Octopi you would get turned into a newt with eight legs.

[Werebear]

I'll throw in Qblqng, Qoh! Qctopi!, and OoooOOooooOoooo....

[The Levite]

Qblqng, Qoh! Qctopi! = newty goodness. *evil grin* OoooOOooooOoooo.... = more newty goodness.

Sorry for the mediocre post guys, I'm not feeling good and my imagination is at a low ebb.

[Werebear]

Um, I always throw in three... unless I'm posting an entire book. Can you split the first two ingredients, and I'll promise to put each on their own line from now on?

[Magus]

Applebees is a great grill,
Coronets are always good gifts
and i think this cowldryn needs a Cat

------------------
*Poof* Damn! I hate it when i say 'mute' instead of 'newt'!!!

[Ningal]

Then you just get newted three times, Werebear.

[Werebear]

Hm.

Ablang,

A Blang, ,

and Abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz just for fun.

[Master Leviticus]

That morning, Werebear the newt, Slithered in with a complaint. "I posted three ingredients not two!," he whispered in his newty voice,
"Would you please recount?" Then, my wonderful co-mod, floated down from on high, intoning: "Then you just got newted three times Werebear. ". Yes, Master Leviticus said, "Listen to the woman."
Next to come in was Magus. Familiar with the routine, he walked directly up to the cowldryn and dropped in Applebees is a great grill (you have good taste by the way) the cowldryn gurggled happily, and spit out 10 bubbles. Next in was Coronets are always good gifts. It seems that the cowldryn agreed since you get 14 bubbles. Finally you drop a poor unsuspecting cat in the cowldryn. With a swift yowl the cat jumps out, gives you a very dirty look, and sits itself up on the shelf in the sun to dry. Meanwhile, the cowldryn gave an angry whisper and a very large bubble floated up, and began to move very so slowly towards the unsuspecting Magus, who was trying to coax the cat back into the cowldryn. Suddenly Magus was trapped and with a sudden realization and, resigned fatality, popped the bubble. a small mouse provided much entertainment for the cat.

[Magus]

Well, I'll try Cat and Mouse then. And Catalog. what about Cartography?

[Werebear]

I was ignored! Waaah!

[Master Leviticus]

Sorry guys, this is the first time that I've managed to get online.

Werebear: A blang earns you 1 bubble as does Ablang
While, abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz gets you a whopping 12 bubbles

Magus: Cat and Mouse gets you 5 bubbles and Catalog gets you 2 bubbles. On the other hand Cartography gets you [/b]3 bubbles[/b].

[Magus]

alright. Let's try Cab then Cabal and lastly Cabalism

------------------
*Poof* Damn! I hate it when i say 'mute' instead of 'newt'!!!

[Faeriefire]

mmmm . . .
Cheetos popcorn

[Master Leviticus]

Lets see...

Late that evening Magus wandered in with three ingredients, and as usual wasted no time in getting on with business. (know it's spelled wrong) Full of pomp and circumstance, the first two ingredients (cab and Cabal) went in with a quite plop, followed by two quiet pops...the last ingredient (cabalism) was dropped in by a small flying snake which earned him 3 bubbles

Later that night just before Master Leviticus closed the door, a small fluttering form darted in. Sensing that her time was short, FF quickly droppe din Cheetos Popcorn which pursuaded the cowldryn to produce 4 bubbles. With a small smile of pleasure, FF whisked out the door and all was peace.

[Magus]

Cabalistic just to round things off. Then cobalt and cobras

------------------
*Poof* Damn! I hate it when i say 'mute' instead of 'newt'!!!

[Master Leviticus]

Alright...

Cabalistic gets you 3 bubbles and Cobalt gets you 1 bubble. Laastly Cobras produce 2 bubbles

[Faeriefire]

This is fun

eleven evangelists
mummified monotheists
sorry samauris

[Magus]

Now for Cob then Cub and lastly Cube

------------------
*Poof* Damn! I hate it when i say 'mute' instead of 'newt'!!!

[Master Leviticus]

Bright and early that morning FF came knocking at the door. Face bright and full of alliteration, FF fluttered over to the cowldryn. The first ingredient to hit the water was eleven evangalists. With a mere sigh, the cowldryn released 4 bubbles. Filled with joy, FF dropped in her next ingredient mummified montheists and the cowldryn silently released 5 bubbles. Dancing with exuberance, FF dropped in her final ingredient sorry samauris. Silence prevailed in the hall and FF looked to be getting a little nervous. Finally, and ever so slowly, 2 bubbles ascended from the cowldryn. FF gave a sigh of relief and flew out the door in a rush to go find more ingredients.

Later that day Magus came wandering in with a thoughtful expression on his face. Going up to the cowldryn, he silently dropped in Cob then Cub and finally [/b]Cube[/b]. The first ingredient gives him 1 bubble as does the second, the last however give him 2 bubbles

[Magus]

interesting. Cab gets a transformation, but then Cub and Cob both get bubbles...

sooo... Ed wants to jump in, and say Wed as part of an Ad

------------------
*Poof* Damn! I hate it when i say 'mute' instead of 'newt'!!!

[Master Leviticus]

Ed = newty goodness

Wed = more newty goodness

Ad = multipule newty goodness's

[Magus]

Men
Mean
Man

and the saga continues...

------------------
*Poof* Damn! I hate it when i say 'mute' instead of 'newt'!!!

[The Levite]

The saga continues...with the same results

Lots and lots of newty goodness

[Magus]

okay, how about Mana and Mono together with Mini?

------------------
*Poof* Damn! I hate it when i say 'mute' instead of 'newt'!!!

[Magus]

or perhaps the cowldryn would prefer Matron or Mitten or even Mutton

------------------
*Poof* Damn! I hate it when i say 'mute' instead of 'newt'!!!

[Ningal]

I'm feeling particularly uncreative today, so:

1 bubble for Matron
a newting for Mitten
2 bubbles for Mutton

for a total of 3 bubbles for Magus this batch.

Edited to include Magus's previous batch:

a newting for Mana
2 bubbles for Mono
another newting for Mini

Edited again to note that the bubble tally in reply #23 is up-to-date so far as I can tell.
