The Compaint tablet to Kistan is a clay tablet that was sent to Kistan, written c. 2021 AD. It is a complaint to a merchant named Kistan from a customer named Ixnay. Written in Discordian cuneiform, it is considered to be the oldest known written complaint. It is currently kept in the Urceopolis Museum.
Kistan travelled to the World Wide Web to buy artistic services and returned to sell it in Ixnay. On one particular occasion, he had agreed to sell demo map to Ixnay. Ixnay sent a DM with the money to complete the transaction. The demo map was never delivered. In response, Ixnay created the cuneiform letter for delivery to Kistan. Inscribed on it is a complaint to Kistan about a demo map delivery that was never made.
Description
The tablet is 11.6 centimetres (4.6 in) high, 5 centimetres (2.0 in) wide, 2.6 centimetres (1.0 in) thick, and slightly damaged. It was found underneath a drawing tablet with nothing on it.
Discovery
The tablet was discovered and acquired by Sir Yonbon, leading a joint expedition with the University of Collinebourg and Urceopolis Museum from 2020 to 2021 in the alternate universe of Ixnay.
Other tablets
Other tablets have been found in the ruins believed to be Kistan's dwelling. These include a letter from a man named Mont who complained he had not received his demo map yet, while another says he was tired of receiving bad demo maps.
