Now many people asked me today about Snipe Poop its a pretty huge debate in Spiral Knights. I do have to be honest I am a firm believer that Snipes do poop, and many agree a lot of research and figures went into my theory of snipe poop as well. Now, I would like all of you guys to share theories of snipe poop is this poop real or is it all in our brains? etc.

My theory:

Snipe Poop is REAL. Snipe poop is the same color of the grass in Spiral Knights ( Bright-limeish green). Snipes go into the grassy fields in Spiral Knights and when no one is looking they do their business in the grass. I am sure some of them have pooped on Boswick's Bush as well, but thats a whole different story. The reason we can not see the poop its because its very tiny, and it hides well in the grass.

What about the smell?

The dev's were pretty smart they knew their pet snipes will poop all over the grass, so they added flowers in the grass to make sure it covers the smell of the poop.

You ever wonder why that snipe randomly is trying to be all ninja and fly towards that random patch of grass? Its not because it wants to eat the grass its because it has to go #2.

Summary:
Next time you go and walk in grass in Spiral Knights be careful it might be snipe poop your stepping in.

snipe poop is totally CE, and the strangers collect it all before we see it. all this time, we've been crafting our weapons using poop

Hmm...

I completely agree with you on this theory. But the real question is.... Do they wipe? And if so...how do they wipe?!

I mean, they dont have hands...and they're always spinning in circles, so how is it possible? Do they rub their little feathery bottoms on the patches of flower buds or tall grass, or do they have our fellow knights do the dirty work, especially those ones who are idle and happen to be sitting by the Auction Hall by the Fountain. Do they rub their little feathery bottoms on those knights... to have themselves cleaned?! What a mystery!

This has been an amazing discovery for the SK Research facility! The information gathered on snipe poop here is quite impressive.

Well done, Nj.

@Shuichi ---

Snipes do wipe in my research I found it that the reason a snipe is spinning is not because they find it cute to spin or they want the attention my first hypothesis was attention, but I was clearly wrong I found out snipes just get attention for being themselves. The spin is to generate a relative average speed for them to throw those poop particles in mid air and clean their rear. These particles are so tiny only can be seen with special helmet. You ask what helmet allows you to see this? I found this discover while wearing my Santa helmet during beta due tot he white ball on the top being so radiant in color it would reflect the poop particles in mid-air.

@Blanky

This has been close to a year of research for myself, and I know many others have been working on theories as well.

@Echo

You ever wonder why your still not a member in Eos? <3

@Xcleb

See I thought that theory of snipe poop being Ce had some value, but then I realized if you multiply all of the possible ce exchanged in this game and divide it by the # of poop particles this would mean each snipe poops at least 20 to 30 times a day in this game just to add up the CE spent in this game in 1 day. Studying about 20 snipes secretly I learned that an average snipe only poops about 2 to 5 times a day, so this theory can not be true at all since the average snipe poop would have to be a HUGE amount which could never happen since the poop is undetected.

If we follow the train of thought that Strangers are big snipes or multiple snipes stacked, they might poop larger loads that you wouldn't have been able to witness.

They poo in bushes

Occasionally one or two disappear because they made the mistake of using a CERTAIN BUSH.

I think it's all well and good that you did all this research on their poop. But I bring to you a more pressing matter.

@Velcro

I thought of that, and in my research I found out why the pee does not matter so much since the pee is no mystery at all. Ever wonder why snipes are always close to fountains? Yes, my fellow knights its true Snipes do pee, but they are such smart creatures always being close to fountains. The snipes stay close to fountains because if they have the need to pee they will go in the fountain.

Now some people will try to debuff my whole theory on snipe poop and snipe pee by bringing the argument that the snipes in the advance training hall do not have grass or a fountain near them, but my fellow knight you are wrong. With months of research I have found that the snipe needed to have a job just to past time since flying around in the town square is well pretty boring three rings has created a job for snipes so they go in the advance training hall to work (thus the uniform aka work clothes), and when they have the desire to pee or poop they change shifts.

Well Njthug. Your research is

Well Njthug. Your research is truly inspiring. You have the zeal of a crazy researcher.

Though frankly Haven seems far more dangerous than I ever seemed. Have you found if all this Snipe poo and pee may cause diseases to spread? Is there any danger to being around grass, and more importantly, to drink from the fountain?

I fear for the safety of my friends.

The real reason we don't notice the snipe poop is that we have no noses. We can't smell anything, so for all we know, Haven stinks to high heaven due to these lil' guys.

Actually Myllakka, we DO indeed have noses if you look really closely. I saw em using Spiral Spy.

I guess we just have a really bad sense of smell, or we are just plain ignorant.

I agree with Xcleb that CE is

I agree with Xcleb that CE is infact snipe poop. I also believe the snipes are responsible for the hideous mind control of the strangers, boost wanted to sell shadow keys for 100ce however the snipes would not let him, his free will is now gone so they have cloned him multiple times. They also are in control of the auction house, they are just laughing at us, they are some what similar to magpies in that regards liking "shines". Wolvers would kill snipes in seconds so, they knights down to do their dirty work and collect the shines for them. One even sits mocking us on all the money.

Hmm...

On the bright side, when Snipes poo, they also fertilize the dirt so more grass grows. Just look at the lush green color of the grass is, and its always healthy bright green!!!! And I also realized something... not only do Snipes pee in the fountain..... they also POO in the fountain!!! Look...just look at the fountain! You'll see the evidence!!!! It's EVERYWHERE!!!!
