How cunning is your plan?
In WoW the rogue class gets certain quests designed to "test" their cunning. At the end it probably says something like "Your cunning level has increased by 1!"
Not particularly impressed by this system, my brother (who is playing as a rogue) and I have devised a more descriptive scale. It's along the same lines as the rating system in Advance Wars - where you pass through several stages of one particular type, and then drop to first stage of the next, better type.
Levels of Cunning!
In order from least cunning to most cunning:
- Hat-Stand
- Wardrobe A wardrobe is (obviously) more cunning than a hat stand because you can hide stuff inside it.
- Elephant (it can move and think)
- Bear
- Chicken
- Mouse
- Squirrel
- Cheetah
- Badger
- Dog
- Cat
- Snake
- Fox
- Weasel
- Blackadder
Within this scale, each level has 3 sub-stages: Normal, Sneaky, and Sneaky Sneaky. So to become Wardrobe-rated, you must first be rated as sneaky as a Hat-Stand, Sneaky Hat-Stand, and Sneaky Sneaky Hat-Stand.
The final level of cunningness is a Sneaky Sneaky Blackadder
Well, maybe it'll never work, but it's gotta be better than "Level 5 cunningness achieved"
