Petition ID 756: Improbability bombs: don't always say what they did
Submitted Mon, 04 Jun 12 17:25:16 +0000

On using an Improbability Bomb in combat (jungle, map, Titans, Factory and Nightmare Court), on occasion, you get the "you used an improbabomb" flavour text, but not the "what happened" flavour text.

I think this only happens when you have already used an improbabomb in that fight (I don't remember ever having had it with the first one thrown). I think it happens when it's giving Sparks when there are already Sparks active, or when it's giving a Little Purple Monster when there is already an LPM active, but I can't be sure because it doesn't say!

Example:
Nightmare's Hitpoints (Level 9): ???
YOUR Hitpoints: 905
Your Clan Aura allows you to regenerate 6 damage!
The Purple Monster leaps towards Nightmare and bites down hard for 21 damage!
The bomb begins to roll around the theater of combat, bouncing off rocks like a pinball - and firing out showers of white-hot sparks!
A glowing spark leaps onto Nightmare, burning it for 3 points!
A glowing spark leaps onto Nightmare, burning it for 2 points!
A glowing spark leaps onto Nightmare, burning it for 1 points!
A glowing spark leaps onto Nightmare, burning it for 5 points!
A glowing spark leaps onto Nightmare, burning it for 1 points!
A glowing spark leaps onto Nightmare, burning it for 4 points!
A white-hot spark attaches to you, burning you for 4 points!
A white-hot spark attaches to you, burning you for 5 points!
A white-hot spark attaches to you, burning you for 1 points!
A white-hot spark attaches to you, burning you for 4 points!
A white-hot spark attaches to you, burning you for 5 points!
A white-hot spark attaches to you, burning you for 2 points!
A white-hot spark attaches to you, burning you for 1 points!
A white-hot spark attaches to you, burning you for 2 points!

The Nightmare becomes stronger...
End of Round:
Nightmare's Hitpoints (Level 10): ???
YOUR Hitpoints: 950

This doesn't always happen. It just happens often enough that a pedantic stats-logger like me notices that "hey, that one didn't say what happened, do I put a tally under what I think it might have been, or leave it untallied". And this is ever-since-ever.
