=== The Untold Saga of Eggotinne ===

'''Note:''' The events of this section have heretofore been kept a secret and it is with the consent of both Wotton and Klink that I relate this story.

I have mentioned several times that making efforts to rob the rich players (namely Wotton) had been historically unsuccessful and that in the end there was no legislation that allowed large-scale thievery. It turns out that this was not for lack of trying. On or before 11 March, Klink posted a proposal that would loosen restrictions on the Steal Duck action (see {{Heading|Stealing from the Rich}}), allowing players to target any royalty as opposed to just the DUCK DUKE, a title which wasn't always filled. Wotton decided to privately contact Klink and request that she delete the offending proposal in exchange for three of Wotton's ducks. In order to do this discretely, Wotton would transfer the ducks under the pretenses of posting an offer to trade a colorless duck in exchange for a feed (an offer that Wotton had done previously) and Klink immediately accepting. Klink agreed and took down the proposal.

On 11 March 2021, the first such transaction took place. Wotton posted the offer at 21:20<ref>https://discord.com/channels/515560801394753537/518856008605499402/819681315380133908</ref> and Klink accepted it at 21:21<ref>https://discord.com/channels/515560801394753537/795369457340907561/819681342798823495</ref>.
