EGGY DOODLE #7: Charavie (31st March)
Provide a code of practice for the Puzzle Pirates Fire Brigade.
- Winner
- 1. Save the rum first...so it doesn't add fuel to the fire. Honest.
- 1b. The safest place to store the rescued rum is in your belly.
- 1c. Preferably at a safe distance from the fire. Passing out in the middle of a fire is rarely helpful and may result in loss of hair and/or life and/or self-respect.
- 1d. Be sure to shoo any pets out the door on your way out. It saves you the trouble of interrupting your rum preservation efforts to come back and get them.
- 2. Once all the rum has been saved, if you're still able to stand, you should evacuate the bots next. Most of them aren't all that sharp and need all the help they can get.
- 2b. Be sure to load the bots up with valuables before you send them out. Instruct them to deposit the goods in the back of the fire wagon.
- 3. After all alcohol, animals, bots, and items of a monetary persuasion are out of harm's way, you might check to see that all pirates were able to find their way out. Prod or drag them outside as necessary.
- 3b. Leave the pirates on your mute list for last.
- 3c. Check the pockets of unconscious pirates for anything you could call a "rescuing fee".
- 4. In the event of fire on a ship, the life boats are your friends.
- 4b. Try to leave some life boats for the non-Fire Brigade pirates, too, if at all possible.
- 5. Always remember the Fire Brigade's motto: You Can't Fight Fires if You're Dead. This supersedes all the other guidelines when appropriate. There's no shame in running away. (See #4)
