Subject: Re: Gnomish Fireworks - Ugh!


Yep I made a bunch too. I didn't realize each one had a different fireworks
number. I thought they just shot random colors. And yes it was a terrible
let down. hehe that guy that posted earlier about having a tinkerer's
meeting and fireing his one and only firework would have been a pretty
pathetic finale. :) I made a bunch and was handing them out to people for
free outside ak'anon. And everyone that took one, fired it and then asked
me "How do you use it? I right clicked on it and didn't see anything".
Every single person said that. hehe I told them don't blink or you'll miss
it. lol

Althought I did make a couple collapsable fishing poles! (3 metal rods, 1
gnomish bolts) And I even made a spyglass after 3 attempts. All in all,
I'm a happy gnome for the first time in a while. :)
