Murphy’s Law in Shimlar

Thanks to Mech Dragon

Law: Drops

• You will never find a good gem/shadow drop except when you don’t need it.
• Shortly after buying a gem you will find an exact duplicate from a gem drop.

Law: Quests

• If you really need to do a quest, someone else will complete it within 3 seconds of them appearing.
• Shortly after going to the Questmaster’s Hut and the quests appearing you will find out that you can’t do quests again yet.
• Finding a special is a sure sign that someone else found it a split second before you.
• If you find the winning special then someone will PK you.
• When logging onto shim you will find out that you logged on a few minutes too late for quests.

Law: Fanatics

• If you become tired, the next monster will be a fanatic.
• If you stop concentrating at the upper half of the screen, the next monster will be a fanatic.
• If you are in a zone with a purple background, you will somehow mistake the word fanatic for the background.
• If you encounter a fanatic right before leveling and attack it, it will double-critical and kill you.
• (if you are questing and you need an assassin, you are sure to skip it the first time)

Law: PKing

• You ARE about to attack a twink and die. Give up.
• If the target is somehow not a twink, you will get double/triple/quadruple-criticalled and killed.

Law: Fancy Confirmation “Are You Sure?” Popups

• Despite the warning, you will buy the wrong item.
• Despite the warning, you will sell the wrong item.
• Despite the warning, you will trade the wrong item.
• Despite the warning, you will enchant the wrong item.
• Despite the warning, you will disenchant the wrong item.
• If you do buy/sell/trade/enchant/disenchant the right item, you will shortly find out that it was a bad idea anyway.
