I'd go with this except it stopped working for me very suddenly at about
level 18. One day it put mobs to sleep no problem, the next they started
attacking after nodding. Its painfully obvious that all creatures get the
second resist not just high level ones as GZ stated. What they did I don't
know but definitely at 15-17th the song worked and creatures never attacked
after a nod message. I do mean never. Then one day they started attacking
sometimes even after a nod message.

This doesn't even address the issues of the resist levels being far higher
than GZ claims they should be.

From: "Daniel P. Sniderman" <

This make the most sense of all the theories I've heard so far... As a
programmer - I am often surprised when a user tells me of a "new bug" in
code that I know I haven't touched since the application was installed many
months before. My gut reaction is that the user is making a mistake not me.
What often is the case - is the data changed - or the users started using a
seemingly unrelated feature of the application where the interaction exposed
the bug that never was exposed before.
I can see GZ and company chuckling to themselves; they know they haven't
touched that code - why would it not work?
Lullaby sure worked great for me back when I was a in my teens and lower
twenties - so I assumed the change was from a patch; not the simple fact
that I'm level 36...
