Once upon a time, there was this baaaad newbie, who wanted
nothing more than to sit on four kills, and never do anything new.
The newbie was sitting there idling, waiting patiently for the
reset, as only a newbie can do, when one day, a large and ill-
reputed cyclops wandered by. He looked at the newbie and said,
"Praytell, young newbie, what are you doing, just idling here?
Surely there is something more interesting to do?"
The newbie looked around and said, "What, huh? Oh, sorry was
idle(as usual), uh, see there are these 4 monsters that reset around
here, and I do *so* like to kill them, so I am waiting."
Well, the cyclops thought a moment (well 2 moments, cyclops
aren't the fastest thinkers, you see...) and then abruptly turned
and whispered to something that the newbie was unable to see. A
chant began, emitting seemingly out of the thin air. The cyclops
turned back to the newbie and said, "Noobie, you are hereby
condemned to a life of being cheese. You act like it, your actions
smell like it, and therefore, I pass sentence. This may teach you
something someday."
The chanting stopped, and an elf materialized out of thin air!
The newbie felt an odd sensation...and looked down to see his body
turning to cheese! The cyclops then turned again and whispered to
the elf. The elf grinned and became lost in thought. The cyclops
turned, and with a wry wink, licked the newbie. The elf stopped
concentrating, opened his eyes and said "og".
The newbie suddenly found himself transported to a room full of
all manner of vermin, rats and mice and other furry denizens of the
dark underground, who began at once to nibble on his toes. Only the
rodents know what screams emitted from the newbie's cheesy mouth,
what promises he made to god, to the devil, to whatever deity may
have been listening, and to this day, it is rumored that if you
idle in the wrong place, you can still smell the faint whiff of
cheese...
