Hile.

The winds of Ka have spoken and have revealed to me, via the Moderator ka-tet, that the chosen number is 556.

The winner is /u/Doromath, with the guess of 577.

Listen, here, now.

“It crossed the road because it was stapled to the chicken, you dopey fuck!” /u/Doromath yelled. He got to his feet and started to walk toward the smoking hole where the PIF had been. /u/Cosmobarber grabbed at the back of his shirt, but /u/Doromath barely felt it. Barely knew where he was, in fact. The battle-fire had dropped over him, burning him everywhere with its righteous heat, sizzling his sight, frying his synapses and roasting his heart in its holy glow. He had /u/MadDingersYo in his sights, and although the thing behind the voice was already mortally wounded, he was unable to stop squeezing the trigger: I shoot with my mind.

“What’s the difference between a truckload of bowling balls and a truckload of dead babies?” /u/Doromath raved. “You can’t unload a truckload of bowling balls with a pitchfork!” A terrible shriek of mingled anger and agony issued from the hole where the PIF had been. It was followed by a gust a blue fire, as if somewhere forward of the /r/wetshaving Coach an electric dragon had exhaled violently. /u/relided called a warning, but /u/Doromath didn’t need it; his reflexes had been replaced with razor blades.

Round 3 will be posted on 9/12 and will be a hardware lot consisting of two shave-ready straight razors and a strop. Karma requirement will be 150.

Go then. There are other PIF’s than these.
