Police came round & said that there's been quite a few tonight in the neighbourhood. I'm now changing every password I ever set, and will need to replace every key I have to everything.
They were fairly calm, competent & generally the kind of police you'd want when your house has been broken into. We'll get the forensics team over tomorrow apparently, so no touching anything tonight. Except for all the stuff we've already touched (like the beer sitting next to me).
Yup, gathering sympathy was what I was up to, so thanks! Funnily enough, I got a crime survey the other day, on behalf of my Conservative Party representative. Probably paranoia to think she's the one doing the burglaries? Still, very effective tactic. Maybe I should go buy the telegraph tomorrow & advocate whipping for all wrongdoers. Or at least the cute female ones.
I have a total of seven sympathy units, and four of those are currently assigned to you. Just to refresh your memory, from the rule book: 17.4.6.11 You may use assigned sympathy units as if they were your own. They must be refreshed during the upkeep phase or you will lose them, and you may relinquish them at any time. The only other limitation is that you cannot reassign them to another player.
Sorry to hear that. One can only hope that with a number of houses being done and the police actually investigating, they might actually catch the person(s).
On another note, I must warn you against the urge to vigiliantism, however. While it may seem justified at the time, no one looks good wearing their underpants outside their trousers.

The only justice I'm likely to be able to wreak is crippling them with laughter at my l33t ninja skilz. I hope I never meet these people, even if it means my stuff is gone forever.

You must clearly hunt these people down and destroy them utterly. I hope you can feel coimfortable in your house again soon.
And there's no way they can nick off with that TV :)

Err. So I'm told, anyway.

Since I had my laptop stolen I've taken to keeping copies of things I really care about in online storage.
