So, two discussions here.

Why is pistols at dawn such an effective way for settling disagreements?

And why does mountainmage repeatedly decline an invitation an event?

Pistols at dawn is much more fun if you play it in a minefield.

Lies! Snakes and ladders is NEVER fun. Even a minefield could not make it pleasurable.

I think it would be more poetic to have Pistols at Sunset.

I've always been fond of high noon myself. Sunset and sunrise the sun can get in your eyes and whoever's facing away from it is at an advantage.

Depending where you are, though, it can be awfully hot at high noon, especially in the summer time.

What about mid-morning? Like 10 am? A brunch could follow.

Me too. A lot of the best food are brunch foods.

Also, I don't like guns.

Can we just do brunch at 10?
