This one's rather clever, I have to say.

Just squeezing it yourself sure would be a simpler way to 100% ID fruit juice.

Not only would Dudley shortly die of starvation, making the ID of fruit juice pointless, but the strip needs some capitalisation!

Messages that start with lowercase letters make me think of Rogue.

I always seem to find the little mistakes AFTER the strip is scheduled... >_

Changed the messages so they start with upper case letters.

Nethack needs a way to make fruit juice from your fruit.

Slime mold gives 250 nutrition. Blessed non-diluted potion of fruit juice gives 30 nutrition. I don't see a gain here. Oh, wait, its Dudley. Fair

I take it as a parody on all those people who claim to be dying of thirst and yet cannot drink pure water.

@TJR; I take this for me :-) (IRL) Well, what a pity drinkless (or even drunkless) are not a recognized conducts! Last edited: Tue, 6 Oct 2009 18:29:29

@7aboir: your nick may give a hint about that IRL issue.

I'd assume you can still eat the slime mold after you squeeze it.
#14	Newtkiller	Tue, 6 Oct 2009 23:43:17
@ctaboir : hey, actually, there is, see trick n°7.1.1
#15	Anonymous	Wed, 7 Oct 2009 16:49:52
Ah. I saw the lowercase and the reference to "slime mold juice", and just assumed that it was supposed to be a Rogue throwback.

What's the n?
