Why.... (in General)

are the Steel Brig, Heavy Crossbow and lesser tattoos in the Black Market?

Why....

is there an option to order a double cheeseburger, large fry, and a diet coke?

Why is the place where you park your car called a driveway and the place you drive your car called a parkway?

Why does RadioShack ask for your phone number when you buy batteries?

Because we want stuff!!!

Well on a more related note, Ranger's question is as reasonable to ask as any of the other ones here...

Doesn't make much sense to me either

There's levels of rarity. Those things you mention don't spawn in the store, but aren't as rare as, say, a Corn.

Hmm,

I thought heavy xbows and I know lesser tattoos spawn in the store.

Steel Brig, who cares.

Steel Brig, Heavy Crossbow, Lesser Tattoos.. they spawn in the store.

Are you sure? Or do people just sell them to the store?

Ok, there's like 5679867945 Steel Brigs in the store right now....

I think our pilgarlic little dwarf who controls the stores and black market is having a laugh at our expense.

Why

when you order a plain cheeseburger from Whataburger, do they give you a piece of meat between two buns with no cheese?

Why would you order anything from Whataburger in the first place? Yuck.

You wouldn't.

Why is a building called a building and not a built?

OK. The steel brigandine is supposed to be (as far as I can work out) a way for a clan of mages (or any clan, I guess) to veto any vote in the black market.

Let's say that the elven longbow has 50% of its votes, but a clan of mages feels that there are too many elbows in the world already, then they can merely vote for the steel brig. The same goes, I guess, if tanks think that there are too many corns in the world.

I think that is why it was included. We don't usually resort to such underhanded methods, though, being nice people ;-)

The lesser tats and heavy xbow... well, who knows.

I think it is funny, though, that only one item in the game commands a higher price (when at base) than the corn - and that's the helm of clearsight. That's what "rare" should be :-)

why do they report power outages on the television?
if you choke a smurf what color does it turn?

"OK. The steel brigandine is supposed to be (as far as I can work out) a way for a clan of mages (or any clan, I guess) to veto any vote in the black market. "

As far as I know you can't do that. If there were enough people I believe you could get 2 items spawned at the same time, it really doesn't matter, as long as the required number of votes is met, then it gets put in auctions.

Spawning some item X resets the vote count for that item only, not every item.... right? If so, then that tactic wouldn't work.

If you have a television that runs on batteries (many small, portable tellys do), then you are more than capable of receiving television transmissions as the big channels, such as ABC, NBC, Fox, and CBS, broadcast their content just like radio stations do-- over the air.

"If there is a problem with your phone, please call our helpline on......."

Why when you have a wireless network problem does it ask you to go to the microsoft website to find out how to connect to the W2C network?

lol

"Why is the place where you park your car called a driveway and the place you drive your car called a parkway?"

Maybe someone made a mistake in the onomastics involved.

LOL, bart. :)
