Although, it would help if you spell the item correctly. I'm not trying to pick on you, but I couldn't help but see you spelled faucet forset. That would definitely be a cause for a game not to respond if you spell things incorrectly like that. This isn't the first time I've seen incorrect spellings like that in your e-mails, and as you probably know interactive fiction really does require decent spelling to work. Anyway, as someone else suggested it was probably something simple like "get water" which fits with a lot of interactive fiction games I've played. Usually, not all the time, but usually after you play them a while there is a certain logic everyone follows most of the time.
