Here's a clip of the source from that page, if it matters:
Code: 
...under the influence of mind-altering drugs.</p><p>You look down and notice a ten-leaf clover at your feet.  Then you look up at the stars and smile.  Then you look back down and pick up the clover.</p><center><table class="item" style="float: none;" rel="id=24&s=0&q=0&d=0&g=0&t=1&n=1&m=1&p=0&u=u"><tbody><tr><td><img src="/images/itemimages/clover.gif" alt="ten-leaf clover" title="ten-leaf clover" class="hand" onclick="descitem(370834526)"></td><td class="effect" valign="center">You acquire an item: <b>ten-leaf clover</b> <font size="1">[<a href="inv_use.php?which=3&whichitem=24&pwd=[i]HASH[/i]">use</a>]</font></td></tr></tbody></table></center><p>You gain 25 Fortitude.

It DID notice that it acquired the clover, though.

I just ascended into Marmot to look at this. Sure enough, it did not closet my clover today. I think it's because I got it at the end of a fight, and fight.php was not listed as one of the URLs that can generate a clover that needs protection. Revision 9379 add it. I'll see how it works tomorrow.

Why isn't it in the acquire code instead?

You win the fight!



Gobert does a little fairy dance. It's rather unlike the dances you've seen other fairies do.

You look down and notice a disassembled clover at your feet. Then you look up at the stars and smile. Then you look back down and pick up the clover.

So does it generate pre-disassembled clovers? If so, then it doesn't need re-protection again, right? Because a disassembled clover won't be usable in beecore regardless of what you've done...

No. That's copy-paste from the relay browser after it was protected by mafia. If he'd copy-pasted the CLI you would have seen the clover being assembled.

I don't know why Mafia does that with no notification in the relay browser.

Probably just because it is more succinct than:


You look down and notice a disassembled clover at your feet. Then you look up at the stars and smile. Then you look back down and pick up the clover.

ten-leaf clover You acquire an item: ten-leaf clover clover [use]

that seems a little dangerous so you pluck off all the leaves. Yup, safer now.

disassembled clover You acquire an item: disassembled clover [use]

Actually, now that I think about it, I do like my version better. A bit more verbose, but... nah. It's fine telling you what you have in your inventory without breaking down the steps. The CLI tells you the details in case you really care.

My point being that it should be more obvious in the relay itself that Mafia is working to Keep You Safe.

Hmm... Possibly add in something like, "(To turn off clover protection...", like they have it in other thing.
