Around 10:25 P.M., PST, a mystical character identifying himself as the archetypical "The Frog" descended on LA, dist 6.

Drunk dev? Brilliant hacker? You make the call.

On several occasions, he directed comments to specific persons. And, as expected, most of this enlightened "conversation" with the frog was drowned out by the useless banter of pubescent teenagers.

Got a good laugh out of it, however. If you're reading this at this moment, it might be worthwhile to check it out, if not for knowledge, then for a good laugh.

*EDIT* Petitioned "Frog" to repair awry supply-and-demand chain. No response.

This Frog sits near the tree in Lions Arch district 6, I am sitting on his head, he constantly ribits, and he talks about finding the "inner frog". WTF A.net, give us an update, not this bullshit. Oh, and I don't even think a godly frog could fix the current economy problems. Maybe he is here to kill all the solo UWers.

He is no bot, He answered my question about the economy with some dumb thing about a man in a black cape.

I have also been declared prophet of the frog, since he said my name OUT LOUD, and I've been chosen to lead the people to the promise land in the Crystal Desert.

The frog knew the answer to the meaning of life. He is now my hero. 42 all the way. He could not have answered my question better.

He told me he must leave a while back, some heretics have said he is in dis 4, they lie, do not be blinded by there trickery. It was most likely a dev, for he has infinite wisdom. He said, as Jesus did, he will come back as a zombie, and take us to heaven, or as we call it, the new expansion. Unfortunaly, he said fixing the trader problems is even out of his reach, so we must turn to faith. I am delcaring myself Pope Moridin the 1st, and I will have a temple erected in the Frog's name, and in the name of 42 and the man in the black cape.

The frog seems to be a false prophet sent to separate the true believers in Dwayna from those who simply follow by word.

He Said the Man in the Black cape, no the former woman in a black cape. Also, disco parties are against our faith. The 10 Commandmants of Lord Frog State:

1.Thou will not have Disco Parties

2. Thou will not Bot.
a
3. Thou will not buy black dye from the trader for 33 plat.

4. Thou will not complete Thunderhead Keep, EVER, Unless you have the blessings of the Frog.

5. Thou will not steal, scam, or eat thy neighbor.

6. Thou will not make love to fat females

7. Thou will not watch Fox News Network

8. Thou will do whatever I command, even when I'm loaded.

9. Thou will let Forsaken Moridin into all Smite and FoW runs, no matter what, and Moridin does not have to pay, and gets all ecto and shard drops.

10. Thou will not assume I love you.

Those are the commands I recieved from Lord Frog himself, commands you cannot deny.

Frog can Poon Dwayna anyday, he is level x, where x is Dwayna's level + 1 million, and Has X level of every attribute, where x is dwaynas level +4000000000000000000000000000000000. The Frog>All Except Mcgyver.

I prayed for the almighty Gwen to descend and smite the Frog believers with her fiery wrath. It was to no avail.

I was trying to get him to speak by dancing, bowing, kneeling...oh well.

Apparently there is one in d'allessio but i have yet to verify it.

Maybe these are what the admins use for spying on people? It makes sense to be a decorative object..like the proverbial fly on the wall.

Wow. That sounds oddly familiar. Reminds me of the Dark Tower Series by Stephen King, except it would be in the name of 19 and 99 and just the man in black.

She, I am assuming The Frog is a she, won't talk to me either.
I'm just gonna sit and wait -
I'm at work so I can't really play, but I can watch.
I want to be an acolyte when The Church of The Frog is formed.

"And then The Frog decendeth upon the denizens of Lion's Arch and saith 'Worship me, for I am the path to black dye and philosophical nonsense'. And the people did laugh and applaud in joy, as the time of the Flying Winnebago hath begun..."

I never seen that gold text in european servers and yes, I seen the frog in Lion's Arch since I resumed playing for a bit ... did more gold today that I ever did in the past (around 50k in selling a monk ruke for 40k at the trader, sold some superiors for 1,5k and did some crafting runs that net me 600 gp in profit ... not bad)

there are frogs in lots of places. There is even one in my Guild halls map, two even, they're right next to each catapult. Oh, and I love the 42 bit, looks like one of the devs likes the hitch hikers guid.
