When Used

Break out a window with a brick.

Chuck the brick at ______ (name or playerid).

Attach a message to the brick (500 characters max):

You arc the brick through the window of <Player>'s <housing>, shattering it to pieces. Suddenly, you get back in your Bronco and take off like O.J. Simpson.

If the player has no housing or is incorporeal:

<Player> hasn't got a tent or house, so you throw the brick at him while he isn't looking. The brick hits him in the <bung>. That was mean -- you shouldn't make fun of poor people.

If the playername is invalid:

<Player> evaded your thrown item by the unusual strategy of being nonexistent.

If no message is written:

No message? How rude!

If you try to throw your brick at Jick:

Brick is no longer jickable. It was fun while it lasted.

If you try to throw your brick at a devster account:

Thank you for the attempt to curse a devster. Your request will be handled in the order in which it was received. Or not at all.
