Puff of Annoying
I was under the impression that 'vanishes in a puff of annoying' was a nethack refrence [1]. This itself is a HHGTTG refrence "The throne vanishes in a puff of logic." and the refrence in 31337 scroll. However, a throne vanishing in a puff of logic is much more similar (along with stealing some money - if it refrenced any other of the Nethack throne messages there wouldn't be any question) and annoying to the Meat vortex than God vanishing in a puff of logic. The question remains does anyone know the mind of Jick? --Shagie 18:05, 28 Aug 2005 (Central Daylight Time)
- I believe Nethack references HHGTG in this case, or they came up with the phrase indepentally.-Carados 09:11, 23 February 2006 (Central Standard Time)
- Diminishing returns? I just used four of these in a row on a cubist bull and got 150, 53, 53, 4 meat, so I stopped on that one. Next bull I encountered gave 134 for the first vortex, and I did not use the rest. Has anyone else tried figuring out if there is in fact a decreasing rate of return the more you use during one combat? --J12601 17:21, 21 November 2006 (CST)

- A few duds, yes, but I think this may be something worth looking into. I tried using four in the Castle in the Clouds in the Sky, and got 100+ meat the first vortex, then the rest below 30.

- Just used some 100+ Meat Vortex in the Castle in the Clouds in the Sky, while using 25 of them per fight, and i got between 1 and 150~ meat everytime, no sign of diminishing returns--Electro 08:55, 20 May 2007 (CDT)
