Is there a case for suggesting Snapcase might have been the Patrician, in The Colour of Magic, who gives Rincewind the choice of looking after Twoflower or being tortured to keep him alive until the Agateans can claim him and torture him some more? An immensely fat man with a taste for candied seafood, as I remember...--AgProv 22:25, 28 April 2009 (UTC)

Yes, there is. Now, Pterry has gone on the record as saying the Patrician of COM was Vetinari- or at least that Patrician grew to become Lord V as we know him. But the timeline discussions have demonstrated that Snapcase has to be the Patrician who celebrated his 10th anniversary in Mort, and Mort necessarily came after COM.

Rat farms

Vetinari's act of "taxing the rat farms" was apparently because of a plague of rats in a context that suggests that the rat plague started just before he became patrician so it must have been in Snapcase's time.

Leguminous link?

Recall reading somewhere about "snap peas" or "snap beans" which are a distinct variety of legume. Given the Snapcase family association with Sproutington, centre of the bean-growing industry, could the "snapcase" be another word for a peapod? AgProv (talk) 20:16, 22 July 2016 (UTC)
