Yes. You must construct a latrine for your knights.
Without restroom facilities they will haphazardly 'mark' their territory.

Seriously...white, grey and blue bricks seem to age the worst. Ultra-violet
light plus other factors seem to cause/worsen this discolouring over time.
As we all age...so does our Lego.

(...) Should I construct such a latrine, and photograph it while the King is relieving himself, would that be considered bad form the the Lego Castle community? I doubt the King would be too amused... (23 years ago, 15-Jun-01, to lugnet.castle)
