First place
"It's too expensive to dump boiling oil on rioters these days, so we had to switch to these counterfeit bills covered in poison. This actually works better, because they don't drop dead until they're back home, so we don't even have to clean up the bodies." �Jesse
Second place
"Odo, these 'paper currency magnets' you've invented are brilliant! Look at those silly peasants, flailing their arms around in a vain attempt to stop the upward progress of their hard-earned banknotes!" �kejo
Third place
"It's like I always say, Roderick...
1. Immobilize the king in giant Santa suit
2. Dump entire treasury onto populace
3. ????
4. Profit!" �Vance
Honorable mention
"Wait until they find out it's only American money." �Richard
"For years, we've had excess population but no reason for the peasants to murder each other! Once the half of the kingdom to whom we have gifted only rusty old kitchen knives hears of this, simple jealousy will solve all of our problems." �Harris
"Just keep it pouring until black people show up."�mypalmike
"I don't know what they're so excited about -- these slips of paper are worthless. Banknotes won't be introduced in Europe for several hundred years."�John Tabin
"Call me a conspiracy theorist or whatever you will, but the king is definitely two midgets in an overcoat! Think about it; when has he EVER taken the coat off in front of you? Also, I could have sworn I heard the lower half of his body sneeze once during a speech. All I'm saying is; keep your eyes open man." �Milo
"I hope the king doesn't catch us giving away all of this mon- OH MY GOD HE'S RIGHT BEHIND US!" �ECM
"I'm just disturbed at how close they are to the edge of the balcony. How high is that pile of people they've trampled to death, anyway?" �Francis
"Man, people sure love money." �Steve_O
