The Guildmasters' Dinner Logic Puzzle
Revision as of 14:46, 30 June 2007 by DreamingLady (talk | contribs)
The Guildmasters' Dinner Logic Puzzle was a plot released on November 16, 2004, meaning it was released in the middle of the Hannah and the Ice Caves plot. Apart from sharing the characters Galem Darkhand and Masila, there was no connection to the Hannah and the Ice Caves plot. It was a logic puzzle, much like Usurper! and the Gadgadsbogen Puzzle in earlier years. Due to reasons unknown (but said to be both work and non-work related in the Neopian Times' editorial), the plot was cancelled.
Characters
Each of these characters is an influential thief in the world of Neopia. All of them have been invited by Galem Darkhand for dinner.
| Gashrok (male Skeith) |  |
Don't be fooled by his suave, persusasive half, or you'll soon become the victim of his mean, ruthless and nasty half. Gashrok is the leader of a clan of nasty brutes from the northern parts of Tyrannia. If he's not smashing Rock Beasts in his spare time, he's usually stealing.... entire villages! |
| Sabatha (female Zafara) |  |
Sab the Silent goes to school. She recently got really good marks on her end of year exams. She broke into the headmaster's office, silently of course, and copied all the answers. This student leads a dangerous double life.... and meeting with Galem is about to make things a lot more dangerous. |
| Galem Darkhand |  |
If you look up underhand in the dictionary, then you probably won't be able to find it, because Galem would have either stolen the dictionary or just ripped the page out to spite you. He bullied and blackmailed his way to the top, and at the top he will stay.... for now. |
| Masila |  |
Masila's cloak, earrings and brooch used to belong to a rich little girl, a girl who made the mistake of trusting her. Many thieves have made the same mistake, most didn't live to tell the tale. Masila is truely the mistress of the doublecross. |
| Malkus Vile |  |
No job is too big, too difficult or too dangerous for Malkus. He simply sits back and lets his Meerca Thieves, Heermeedjet and Merouladen do the work. He pays them well of course, but never ever lets on how much of the profit he keeps for himself. |
| Tuborr (male Chia) |  |
Something very weird happened to him when he had a Blueberry Chia Pop, and it wasn't turning into a Blueberry. Tuborr used to be Galem's bodyguard but now he has designs of his own. Thieving, it seems, can be a very lucrative business indeed. |
The Puzzle
Participants were asked the following:
- Who ate what? (Options: Carnupepper Soup, Chicken with Vegetables, Fresh Green Salad, Fried Fish, Hearty Pie, Steak Platter)

- Who uses what avatar on the neoboards?: (Options: Baby Kiko avatar, Beast Burger avatar, Fire Peophin avatar, Battle Duck avatar, Scarab 21 avatar, Scout Unit avatar)
Trivia
- Among the prizes to be won from this plot were the six avatars used by the thieves. It appears that TNT, after cancelling the plot, also removed the avatars from the site.
