Thread: A chuckle for the smuggler

Here's a happy one
When I slice I always tell my customers to start praying. If the first slice is bad I tell them to pray harder. Don't laugh it works!
So last night I agree to slice 10 pieces of armor for a friends friend. He hands them to me and it goes like this:
Me: Start Praying
Him: How do I do that? I tried /pray it doesn't work!
My Friend: /emote prays for him
Me: Well I guess you better worship me then
Him: /worship
Me: Chestplate Effect 22 - Pray harder
Him: /emote worships the bothan goddess
Me: Chestplate Encumb 40
Him: Nice
Him: /woship
We go through all ten pieces all of them Encumbrance except the first chestplate and the boots. They were all good slices. There was one 19% but most were in the upper 20's and 30's with I think 2 in the 40's
I was just about to slice the last piece when....
Him: Do you believe in inter species dating...because I think I love you.
Me: Right bracer encum 32 - why yes I do I'm actually engaged to a Doshan

Something like this happened in Corolag a few weeks ago. I was slicing a suit of armor for a guy and getting really bad results. Really, Really bad. The guy is cool about it though and after one really bad slice, he says "I'm cursed". Next slice,a really good one. On the next slice, just before I cut the last wire, I ask him to say "I'm cursed" again on a whim. He does and I get another good slice.
I sliced the rest of the suit getting good slices with him saying "I'm cursed" each time before the last wire cut.
The Slicing Gods are not mean, they just want to make sure we understand our place.
And another one of some guy challanging a smuggler to a duel.
I'm in the Lucky Despot in Mos Eisley. It's a RP event on Gorath called Scum & Vilany and we (The Kreetles) play at the event. I'm there a little early and I'm reading emails and emoting rumaging through my pack by the stage. I have my Master Dancer titleup andI've got padded armor on.Then some guy comes in and challenges me to a duel (nOOb cloths and a CDEF or dl20 rifle, no badges ). I'm a little angry because I know that this is the same type of player who will abuse entertainers.The type who challange dancers to duels, never tips the entertainers for healing, etc... However, I ignore him and continue to emote rumaging through my pack and he makes his way out the door.
Equipt Modified Republic blaster (34% damage sliced with min/max p-up still on it from the last hunt)
Consume Brandy
Consume Accragram
Accept Duel.
As he was running down the ramp outside the Despot, I was hitting him with last ditch. When he collasped at the bottom, I walked up to his body, changed my title to Master Smugglerand said "Never, ever challange a Master Smuggler to a duel and then walk away" then ended the duel.Changed back to Master Dancer andwalked back up the ramp and went back to emoting rumaging through my pack by the stage.

Assumptions can be very dangerous. "chuckles"
Me:/yell Slicing locked containers for free
NiceGuy /tell me: I have a couple for you.
Me /tell NiceGuy: cool where are you?
NiceGuy: Iam at the starport
Me: ok be there in a few
I run over to the starport and we trade he puts 2 containers in the trade window I slice them and we go to trade back. I look and notice he put 100k in the trade window. I didnt really hit me untill we had traded.
Me: ohh dude thanks (you have to realize I have only been playing for like a month now and 100k for me was a lot)
NiceGuy:np I am quiting the game anyways.
Me: well thanks again man
I start walking away and I am about to send my friend a /tell to tell him what had just happend when I see (out of now where and for no reason) across my screen NiceGuy2 has tipped you 500k.(note this was a different person than the first guy)
Me /tell NiceGuy2: Holy Cow thanks dude
NiceGuy2: np I am quiting the game anyways, is there anything else you need.(lol people get really generous when they are gonna quit the game)
Me:umm you dont happen to have a pistol that I could have do you?
Niceguy2: no sorry but I have a full set of composites you can have.
Me: sure ok
We trade and he puts up a full set of pretty decent comp armor and by this point I am about to have a heart attack. So he gives it to me for FREE and as he is walking away I see again Niceguy2 has tipped you 500k. Then I send him like 8 more tells thanking him and I walk off to tell my friend what just happend.
So that is the story of how I made 1,100,000 credits and got a full set of comp armor just for responding to a tell to slice 2 containers.
