( In-game plural: bricks) [edit] When Used
Break out a window with a brick.
Chuck the brick at ______ (name or playerid).
Attach a message to the brick (500 characters max):
- You arc the brick through the window of <Player>'s <housing>, shattering it to pieces. Suddenly, you get back in your Bronco and take off like O.J. Simpson.
If the player has no housing or is incorporeal:
- <Player> hasn't got a tent or house, so you throw the brick at him while he isn't looking. The brick hits him in the <bung>. That was mean -- you shouldn't make fun of poor people.
If no message is written:
- No message? How rude!
If you try to throw your brick at Jick:
- Brick is no longer jickable. It was fun while it lasted.
- <player> has thrown a brick at you, hitting you in your <kidney>.. ¡Ay caramba!*
- Wait, there's a note attached.
- (* interjection denoting surprise)

- Bricks can be thrown from the chat right-click menu, with the option "Brick 'Em, Dano."
- Bricks may be used against people in Valhalla, but they will not get the imaged notification listed above, only a notification in chat. Additionally, any note attached to the brick is lost and cannot be read by the recipient.
- The phrase "Brick is no longer jickable. It was fun while it lasted." is a spoonerism.
- Unlike toilet paper, you don't see the broken window from your campground, you only see the broken window shown to you in the message you receive from being bricked.
