Basically, the Arbiter had some kind of previously unknown curse on him that had the "Look out it's a dragon!" effect. This unknown curse somehow made the Arbiter look like Gary. Although this curse probably has no planned out explanation from Rob, it could be a curse that activates the skin of tolerance's effect when the words "Look out it's a dragon!" are heard (The arbiter wasn't a dwarf so Roamin and all the other dwarfs then saw the Arbiter as a dwarf that happens to look like the original Gary).
You're looking way too much into it (imho). It's not a plot twist, it's a puchline, and a damn funny one at that.

The curse of tolerance (skin of tolerance?) makes you look like whoever is looking at you. I.E. makes you look 'tolerable'. Think about that from a race perspective for a second.

If that wasn't enough, the joke was spoon-fed to you with yet another punchline 'curse of intolerance?'.

Ah! Great comedic randomness <3 which will probably be explained in a later episode by a very annoyed Rob. Great vid I laughed hardest at this one. :D Bravo!

Abraham Lincoln freeing a slave....I needed an explaination for that one...awesome. lol
But seriously what of stone face and his laser ray or will that be explained later? :p

Do you guys honestly require everything to happen instantly? Anytime I introduce any element to the story, if it it not then instantly explained then you whine about it. Did you guys watch the part where the characters directly make fun of you guys for taking this show so seriously?

My head hurts.
First question: No, But it did seem a little too random was all.Second part othe post that wasnt a question: We are what are known as fans. so yes complaing about an episode while still calling it the best in the season is part of the job description. Second Question: yes, alot of us did watch that part. Giving you said there were 2 episodes left, They will more than likely be good and tie things together.

I apologize for the headache. Keep up the good work :D

And why weren't there two "Sins of the Unforgotten" marks during the intro, and what do they mean anyway?
Considering that the art style for that picture represents The White Chamber and that the game actually has similar marks that determine how the game will end, I will have to go with that.

Not that anyone else has played the game.

I understood that it was a joke completely. I just made that post for all those people on previous pages that were saying "I don't get it at all".

lol wtf was with Roamin at the end?

...and no, the whiny fans wont stop bothering you.

What happened to the Legends of the Hidden Temple statute thing?
And how did they get to the top with no visible stairs?
And why doesn't Rob just beat up Timmy, and take the Rule Book back?
:p
The same way they got to each room with no visible doors >.>

i thought it was an alright episode overall (though too much filler i thought)
but regardless of the seemingly non-sensical plot, you cant just ignore a cliffhanger and continue with no explanation!

even if you had just said "2 days later", implying that you knew there was more to it that you just weren't explaining
but as it was written, it seemed as if you just forgot about the stone head or else didnt want to write about it

im not a proper fan, but that did kinda annoy me

I loved it when Gary was set free and also Abraham Lincoln was so unexpected.
The plot is a bit confusing. Firstly, what happened to the stone head (I know everyone already mentioned that but seriously what happened)? Secondly, how come Shmoopy no longer has the stone of changing? I might have missed something but I don't remember him losing it. The other thing was the 'Sins of the Unforgotten' in the intro is back down to one. I'm guessing that's just a mistake but it was still bothering me.
This was a really funny episode, it was just that the plot was a bit confusing.

EDIT: I did appreciate the joke about the fans complaining even though it's a show about a game that is completely made up. I'm expecting the stone head to be explained but the way the episode opened it just seemed to completely avoid the cliffhanger from the previous episode as opposed to leaving it temporarily unexplained.

EDIT AGAIN: I think two of my problems cancel each other out. I couldn't believe Rob would make a stupid mistake with the 'Sins of the Unforgotten' thing and thought it must be a plot device and now I realise how it might work out with the cliffhanger from the previous episode. Damn, this plot is actually really well thought out.

Wait, where was the deaf not blind thing from? I know I've heard that somewhere before.
Illidan's annoyed quote from Warcraft III.

Nice to see them finally done with the tower. It was starting to get bland somewhat.

Aw, come on we need to know what happened to Petey and Jacque (PS I think that you will next episode anyway because that's like before they battle the Big boss dude they rally the troops or the other guys come to the rescue or some other shit, do you know what i'm saying)

I'm gonna be one of those whiny fans: um, was the fact that there was only one strike on the Sins of the Unforgotten at the beginning a fluke, or was is the result of that whole "send you back to the past" cliffhanger?

Edit: Oh yeah, and just for argument's sake, Abe Lincoln never actually freed anyone with the Emancipation Proclamation: the document stated that all of the slaves in the confederacy were free, but he had no control over the confederacy (the distinction was made because there were some slave states still in the union that he didn't want to piss off). Basically the Proclamation was a political dick-move made to piss off the south. :)

Nothing on Lincoln, though, he is still the greatest (sorcerer). :D
