A similar game.

When I go to MNHQ I will be taking some feathers.

What are you taking?

You can take tea, I think. Sandwiches you’d probably have to get an appropriate type such as turkey.

Yes, I'm pretty sure about tea, and yes turkey sandwiches would definitely work.

I was just wandering whether the rule is narrowly focused, or whether taking sixty sandwiches would work for me as well, if you see what I mean. It would allow you to bring some dirt.

TheRozzers · 10/01/2026 10:43

I don’t think I’d be allowed to bring a robot, but interested to see if I could.

I’m fairly certain a teddy would be fine.

@WinterFrogs
@IsThisTheWaytoSlamMyPillow - excellent user name!
@PhantomOfAllKnowledge

It's a no to your suggestions I'm afraid.

@ThreeSixtyTwo tea and turkey sandwiches would be fine, but not sixty of them.

@TheRozzers no to a robot, but yes to a teddy.
