did you read it, or did someone summarize it for you? Let me summarize:
Some people think he must've used a telescope.
Those same people probably didn't realize how little ambient light there was at the time.
And that's assuming the guy didn't just guess that it was full of stars without actually observing it.
Regardless, there were no telescopes in the middle ages.

Then again, it leads to how scientists believed that molecules looked a certain way through hypothetical guesses and pretty much nothing more than that to go on.
Then when they had the technology to see it, they were proved correct. No way to know for sure if they were correct until they had the technology. But they were correct either way. Could have been the same with him. |

Fine. Then he invented one. And I did read it.

I, being of Norwegian descent, convince a group of vikings to raid and plunder the village. They kill you and your guards during the raid, and I pay them off with my share of the loot.

I watch atop a high hill, surronded by trees. Then as the years past and your bad, high, carb, diet clog arteries, and your sheer paranoia of being killed overwhelms you. You have a heart attack. I am responsible for your death because when you were a wee boy i had introduced you to the "deadly fatty foods". Causing you to go grow fat and bald. Bald because i burned your scalp as a young child leaving you with ugly scarring.
You insecurities with your unconventional state being of course why you hid yourself away, protected by gaurds in the first play. Banish your scarred face from humanity.
Why you ask? Life is just better that way, and your chronic constipation was too much to handle for the nurse.

I convince the villagers that you're a warlock, attempting to conjure the devil. Armored guards and snipers or not, the sheer number of the villagers overwhelms the snipers and armed guards, allowing me to slip past using them as a diversion and quietly slit your throat. |
Villagers aren't very good at fighting, but I say POINT.

Though Troggie is awesome, he doesn't exist so you get no point.

Adding a small telescope to my crossbow, I find that I can draw a cross on it and get a general idea of where the arrow will land. I shoot you through a window from a distance, while perhaps deflecting an arrow or two myself from your snipers. Needless to say, I only need one quick shot, so I can get it in without alerting the guards beforehand. |
Telescopes or not, why would would cottages have windows. They weren't exactly able to heat there homes. That along with the telescope argument gives you no point.

She manages to kill one of the snipers, only to be shot by another one. No point

My snipers sees the smoke from the fire you're making and he hurries there and shoots you as you're about to shoot. No pint.

I then dip my arrow in an oil and wax mixture, light that on fire, and shoot it into the highly flammable thatched roof of your cottage. As it's burning, you invariably run out, and the next arrow I fire kills you. |
Yours is better than Seans because you would be too far for the sniper to get there in time. POINT.
I'll finish the rest later.

So, he sees smoke from the arrows. I'm not making a fire, I'm lighting arrows on fire. They don't exactly give off much smoke until your building is on fire.

What? Where did it say that she kills the snipers? He just said that she has sex with all of the snipers, and only kills you.

Why else would she do it with the troops? And why would I let them?
As for the rest of them:

I wanted someone to do a time traveling one. POINT.

I guess that works. POINT.
Score:
Hooooomsar:1
ITS:1
cow_with_gun:1
Empy:1

The next situation will come later, I'll be thinking of a good one.
