Spellcasting 301 Hints
How can I win this contest? ( Method 1 )
1 of 19: Try watching the event once to see what Snorty does.
2 of 19: He's awfully thirsty isn't he?
3 of 19: Can you think of a mean trick to pull on the bull?
4 of 19: Look around the stores for something that could help you here.
5 of 19: Try "spiking" Snorty's water with something other than alcohol.
6 of 19: The bottle of laxative from the grocery will be helpful here.
7 of 19: You will need to pour it in his water trough at the right time.
8 of 19: Timing is important. If you pour the laxative in too soon, the Yus will benefit from your efforts and win the event.
9 of 19: You will need to find a way of distracting Snorty so you can pour the laxative in at the right time. There are several ways to do this, and another is explained in the "method 2" question below.
10 of 19: Think about the bull's name.
11 of 19: It explains something that he does quite a lot during a fight.
12 of 19: It also gives him his strength and meanness.
13 of 19: You need to stop the bull from snorting.
14 of 19: You probably have a spell to do this.
15 of 19: Or at least a very similar spell.
16 of 19: Have you learned the RATANT spell yet? If not, it is explained in the drink mixing contest (chapter 5).
17 of 19: CAST RATANT ON BIP to get the BIM spell.
18 of 19: Then you can cast the BIM spell on the bull and use the next turn to fill the bull's trough.
19 of 19: If you need to, use the BIM spell to stall a bit until the laxative starts to work.
