Talk:Three-tiered wedding cake

• This crazy thing has an alleged fullness of 35. meaning it could only be eaten with the stomach of steel on the feast of boris. Needs confirmation... somehow. Putting 35 as the fullness in the foods ordered by fullness category, lists it wrong. It gets listed under 3, because alphabetically 35 comes between 3 and 4. This warrants a creative solution for this goofy item. --JRSiebz 22:45, 15 Jul 2005 (Central Daylight Time)

• I'm fixing it now, actually. -- McDutchy, sometime 16 Jul 2005

• Umm sign your comments. Actually it ended up ? again didn't it? ;-) According to Wiki Alphabetical Order, > comes after the numbers, so I tried >, which on the category list would make sense listed after 6, but the problem is when > is translated into html ans escaped so it doesn't screw up the html tags, it ends up as > and gets sorted under &. Haha. This item is trying to ruin the whole stinkin' category. --JRSiebz 15:11, 17 Jul 2005 (Central Daylight Time)

• I'll sign my posts now, sorry. --McDutchy 9:21, 19 Jul 2005 (Pacific Daylight Time)

• If this crazy thing has a fullness of 35, how is it that the minimum adventure gain is 34? That just doesn't make any sense since Jick's stated that the fullness and the minimum adventure gain are the same. If there's a visible record of someone only receiving 34 adventures from this cake, I'd really like to see it. --Invariel 07:46, 19 May 2007 (CDT)

• I added the quantum taco to this page and edited the extra stuff. Forgot to mention that in the note. Sorry 'bout that. --Ryo 08:19, 11 December 2010 (MST)

Pay It Forward Reference?

• The "first part of the item description" is no more a reference to Pay It Forward than it is to MAKE-MONEY-FAST. The "pyramid scheme" link is sufficient, IMO. I won't edit out the extraneous reference unless someone else agrees, though. --Tapin 00:29, 22 Oct 2005 (MDT)

• I agree - this does not reference the movie Pay it Forward. It's clearly a reference to MLM schemes (aka pyramid schemes). --Gothhenge 23:59, 22 June 2006 (CDT)

• To be honest, PIF was based on the idea of taking an MLM and making it a positive thing, not a negative thing. Instead of everyone being screwed for one person's gain, everyone gains when someone makes their world a better place, and all they must do is make the world a better place for others. Therefore, PIF is a reference to MLMs. You could probably amend the text to something like "A similar concept is referenced in the movie Pay It Forward, and this could be a reference to that movie as well". If we wanted to get all Wikipedia like, you could get to the point that PIF was based on a true story. Though, I will say that saying it's a Ref. to PIF is pushing it. --Gedrean 22:02, 31 July 2006 (CDT)

• Multi-level Marketing makes the most sense in this case, since we're talking about a multi-level cake.

• I also agree that it should be taken out. I'll remove it and if you really want it put back in you can revert my changes. --Gleezus 07:58, 3 November 2006 (CST)

Actually text, unless Jick changed it

• I got a different message when I ate the cake, but I did eat it pretty close to rollover. What I got was this "You eat all three tiers of the wedding cake, not even saving a piece to put in the freezer for your anniversary. it makes you want to strike up the wedding band, but you know nobody wants to hear that one again." This is a cut and paste, so the typo is Jick's not mine. -- Crowther

• Ok, the typo was fixed and main pages was still wrong, so I replaced it with the true text: "You eat all three tiers of the wedding cake, not even saving a piece to put in the freezer for your anniversary. It makes you want to strike up the wedding band, but you know nobody wants to hear that one again." --Crowther 12:41, 19 March 2006 (CST)

Adventure Gains

I'm wondering about that 34-39 adventure range, and if it might have been changed to a straight 35 adventures in the last food updates. I keep forgetting that it's *not* a set 35, and I went to test a munchies pill on it today, to see if the munchies was still +1 on an adventure gain that large (I got 36 adventures, FWIW, so that would track to a 35 +1 result.) I don't recall getting something other than 35, but it's been a long time since I've eaten one. Anyone seeing base gains other than 35 currently? (I think my multi's going to ascend in the near future anyway, so I'll make him teet and test these cakes on future FoBs.) --Terion 02:41, 22 June 2011 (UTC) Getting a new job means I haven't been doing much KoL for the last several months. Did manage to eat a cake today with a munchies pill and got 36 again.--Terion 04:29, 31 December 2011 (CET)
