Anyone know what this mound of rocks do? Well it's no ordinary pile of rubble. It's part of the Mongolian culture and as the legend goes, you're supposed to make a wish before you throw a rock onto the pile and if it stays on then your wish will come true but if it rolls off then your won't be granted. So I thought I'd give a try since I was there and all. Of course I wished that my lovely lion and I will be together forever! I threw the stone and.... it stayed on! Yay! Saul - you're staying mine forever whether you like it or not! >:3

Theoretically speaking; if one would be so inclined as to keep someone they knew from happiness, they could remove the rock (that the target person had thrown) from the pile therefore rendering his/her wish void. If the legend doesn't specify how much time the rock must stay in order for the wish to come true, then one should only have to wait till the target person left and then remove the rock. Not that any of this matters. I'm just a devious little bastard that likes to rain on peoples parades. God I'm so mean. I'm so mean I just wanna take someones rock from that pile, just because. But I won't take yours Striper, cause you and SAul should be together. Plus I have no idea who you are, and I'm just typing a really long comment to pass the time. Boy I really am a bastard aren't I?
That's quite an interesting thought although chances are against you to pluck mine out of that pile even if you were trying to. =p Besides, clearly they maintain the mound and periodically take stones off it to keep it within a reasonable size limit anyway. Consider that there's a tour group of around 20+ tourists every hour visiting the place and everyone threw one stone. It'd be a lot bigger than that if they were all left on their own!
