ok, here's one I've been wondering about as the
Really Fun Silver Buckle Roleplay Cooking Party approaches (shameless self-plug there).
Andrew was handed an herb pouch of wheat. The wheat filled the pouch; no more could fit in. He then transferred the wheat to box which is larger than an herb pouch. The wheat that filled the small pouch also filled the larger box, no more room. He then put the box in a crate, much much larger than the box, and the box filled the crate; no more room.
from a pure mechanics perspective this is understandable. All hand-carried bags hold thirty-five items, all chests/dressers/bookcases/crates/shelves hold thirty-six. from an RP perspective, however, it's wonked.
Why do I ask? after the Really Fun SB...okay, I won't re-link, I'm not that annoying. After the party there will be food and grains to be donated to the Foundation for famine relief. What volume of food can I say I am donating? A box of rice would feed a family of four for a week or two. A
crate of rice, if you take into consideration the volume, would feed a village of fifty for a month or more. Can I report the donations in terms of pouches, bags, fifty pound sacks? Will this be considered when distributing?
sorry but it's bugging me. I think I'm trying to yank Gulnyr's Button Pusher title away...
