Note on Pattern Use

posted by Ginger at 10:19 AM, June 19, 2003 | Filed under : Useful Player Knowledge | Comments and Followups

A reminder on how you can conjure and manipulate probability with objects you conjured, from last night’s posts:

Robin conjured the bead as a bead. She didn’t conjure a stink-bomb. Having conjured the bead, it’s a bead, and she can’t now fool herself into thinking it was always a stink bomb. She can neither retroactively change what she conjured nor manipulate the probability of what it might be when she knows what it is. Robin can conjure a new thing or manipulate probabilities that she is not certain of, but once she knows what a thing is, it’s much harder to change it.

I loved your new version, Leslie. We were going to make some suggestions, but we were happy with your creative response.
