[quote=@Threads of Fate] On the contrary, I don't believe you'll help just because I'm in need of help. Nor would I label this my "absolute last resort." That implies that I have several options that are acceptable to use beforehand. This is simply the best of several very terrible options. I understand that you mistrust me, but you're truly reading too far into this. I haven't told a lie since I was six, and while I assumed you would be observant enough to form the view you did, like I said, I'm betting on things outside of my control. *Looks up without tilting my head* [/quote] You misunderstand my point. The fact that you may be making a gamble here makes it very difficult for both of us; in fact, you've entirely disconnected the variable, if true. If you had this planned in the first place, there'd be a constant to derive a result from. But because the results may be entirely unknown to you, it being a risk instead of a calculated means, there is no way for us to determine whether we should help you. Whether intentional or not, you've effectively reduced the chances to a clean 50/50. And I don't like that. They're quite beautiful, though I'm more of a computery guy myself.
