Honey Well Math

Fallen London

The DTC isn’t the only person who can pour honey into an enclosure capable of comfortably holding one or more persons. Anyone can do it. But how much honey do you need?

Assuming one (1) Drop of Prisoner’s Honey is equivalent to one (1) teaspoon (the unit of measure, not the forum contributor), then one needs 768 Drops of Prisoner’s Honey to get a gallon of the stuff (30.72 Echoes if purchased from the Bazaar). Suppose one wants to fill a 10 by 10 foot pool to a depth of 4 1/2 feet with honey. It takes about 3375 gallons to fill 450 cubic feet … or 2,592,000 Drops of Prisoner’s Honey. Yours for the reasonable price of 103,608 Echoes.

I demand public honey bath-houses for everyone!

A small-to-medium sized well holds around 5000 liters of liquid, which is a measly ~1320 gallons. DTC could’ve reasonably buy several overgoats and change young stag’s name to Young Goats Club, but she chose This instead.

This does raise the question - how much would it cost to corner the market on honey?

It’ll be really inconvenient, as the total number will have to have a 7 in it.
