Waiting For Signot: Or, Why We Should Make the Tower Naming Text Box a Brighter Color. A play in one act.

Me:  master Glitches, confirm something for me? 
Mistress*of*Fishies:  certainly 
Me:  at what level tower do you get the option to put a customized sign outside? 
Zany Serendipity:  4th? 
Mistress*of*Fishies:  I have not done my 4th yet 
Zany Serendipity:  ah.... can you do a sign? 
Me:  4th?  I don't even need 4 floors 
Mistress*of*Fishies:  Have not yet tried 
Me:  you know, in the real world, you can slap a sign on any one story hovel, even a neon one
Mistress*of*Fishies:  Saying "LIVE BAIT!!!" 
Me:  yes! But in glitch you need a fourth floor tower for a sign 
Me:  but doesn't it seem sort of basic to have a sign even at a lower level? 
Me:  *yes, I am b---ing* 
Zany Serendipity:  at least you can always name the thing 
Mistress*of*Fishies:  Yes, mine is the Muse_Eum which is why I never needed a sign 
Me: (realizing that they don’t know that this is exactly what I mean)  I must be crazy…I do not see that option. 
Greenkozi:  i don't think you have it till later; go look at one with a sign- it seems like it's attached to a higher floor 
Me:  that is what I mean 
Me:  ok, so I am not crazy 
Me:  there is probably some button somewhere that everyone can see but I just keep zotzing over
Me:  BOGUS.   I should get a sign before some dumb neon arrow.  *snit* 
Greenkozi:  ok, so you have the choice to add something on the side. but only a few choices? 
Me:  yes.  What is the name of the menu item to name your tower? 
Greenkozi:  let me screen shot for you 
Me:   thanks!  *kicks tower* 
Varaeth:  customize 
Me: yes, that opens the menu 
Varaeth:  (click anywhere on the tower besides the door) 
Zany Serendipity:  then along the bottom type the name 
Me:  I swear to you, I have no text box 
Me:  oh. 
Me: [redacted]!!! 
Piece of Serenity:  :O 
Piece of Serenity:  *giggle* 
Me:  I quit this game it makes me look too stupid! 
Greenkozi:  but you were just about to win! 
Me: [redacted] [redacted] [redacted] EXCUSE MY FRENCH 
Piece of Serenity:  no worries about [redacted] here 
Me:  I need a very very very strong drink 
Greenkozi:  i'm guessing you found it :) 
Me:  it's (nearly) the same damn color 
Mistress*of*Fishies:  really, we aren't laughing at you

  • Frankly, I had a hard time spotting it too. And then I went "d'oh!"

  • It would be excellent if tower names did not have to be all caps.
