spoon-business: Wind

["Tyler Crosby" <nomicvoice0@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I promised I'd add more, so here goes:

{{ _No, YOU'RE a Blowhard!_

[[

Watch out where you aim!
The wind is blowing hard and
you may miss your goal.

]]

Append the following -0- delimited text to the end of rule 405/0:

-0-
Wind is a Characteristic.

Wind has two sub-characteristics, Speed (S) and Direction (D).  All objects 
which are thrown on the Grid (gremlins, players via E.A., etc.) behave in 
the following manner: If 5<S<10, the thrown object falls 1 square away from 
the intended target in the direction of D (north, west, southeast, etc.).  
If 10<S<20, the thrown object falls 2 squares away from the intended target 
in the direction of D.  If 20<S<30, the thrown object falls 3 squares away 
from the intended target in the direction of D.  If 30<S<40, the thrown 
object automatically falls into Limbo.  If an object is in flight when S and 
D are updated, its target is changed relative to its once-adjusted position.

}}

My values for S are based in mph, if you (dave) have values in kph more 
easily accessible, I give you permission to rectify this proposal in order 
to give comparable values for S.  Also, that last sentence is kinda badly 
phrased.  If anyone has any suggestions on how to phrase that better, feel 
free to put them on discuss and I will implement them.

3) you feel moved to make a sarcastic comment
4) you didn't read to the end of this list.
Thank you, and have a nice day.*
