I suggested that we just vote on the top ten when this is done.

About the Khajiit slaves thing, I do remember seeing them somewhere in Oblivion, I just forgot where.

91. You ask around for where the Daedric Shrines are and you could've sworn you heard somebody say "I'll tell you but don't forgot to bring yarn, a head of lettuce, and a lesser soul gem." Then you beat him up.
