So what will our society actually do, I don't think we're really heading towards agriculture we just aren't in the right environ so I'll probably not be voting berries again. With the two votes already cast we've already ranked up They Can Be Beaten so hopefully that will also correct the Loses modifier. I'll hold off on the first vote until we've had some discussion of if we want to move into the mountains.
It seems to be the natural progression for They Can be Beaten however due to the harshness of the enviroment it seems like we'll be pretty isolated which is bad. Currently our loot modifier is offsetting our negative resources but when that expires I'll be worried that planting berries will be less effective in the mountains.
Right now I'm voting for spear warriors in part because its a low hanging fruit with only four points needed to upgrade it.

Remember, you are just eating berries lying around. You have no idea that they can be planted. You invented no new technologies since the beginning, all your aspects and decisions initiated social changes only.
Edit: Changed progress values, there was a mistake in there.

EDIT: changed due to new/updated information (see the post following this one)
We have claimed the Mountains as our own, personally I want to aim to discover agriculture.
To gain Pre-pottery Neolithic we need (Cost: Knowledge -3, Resources -2, Population -3, Constructions -1) and currently we have Knowledge 1.5, Resources 1, Population 1, Constructions 0
We have no idea how gain 1 Constructions, I am hoping voting for Stay in place and Being amused by nature will lead us to develop buildings.
Either way, we need many people to vote for Gathering berries (Resources) and Making children (Population) before we can develop out of the Late Stone Age.

You need 4 votes to raise your Amazons to the next level, what will lower Population. Also, you have +1.5 Knowledge and +1 Resources, sorry for the confusion.

Am I wrong about where that aspect will progress to?
We're voting to upgrade aspects they aren't each actions. That would make gaining resources far too easy I suspect.

'Losses'
[x] Making children
It's pretty suicidal to go into the mountains when we are exhausted and suffering from losses. I am thinking we either let the girl go alone and write her off, or make conquerring the high mountains our goal. Why did we even cling to them, anyway?
[x] Migrate.
- [x] [They can be beaten] Go higher into the mountains. Harden your bodies and souls there. (+10% success chance for third decision.)
[x] Tell your whole family, take supplies and anyone willing to tag along on your mad expedition. (Normal 50% success)
Can you please threadmark the Civ Infopost on the 1st page?

I will not tell where your actions lead to. It will kill the fun. Guess.
Marked.
Edit. If you think it is suicidal to go into the mountains, then why are voting for that option ?

If you want to start agriculture, the mountains are just about the worst place physically possible to try it

We have a choice between sending a group of people to an almost certain death, or betting the fate of our entire tribe on this expedition.Edit. If you think it is suicidal to go into the mountains, then why are voting for that option ?
I have the tendency to double down when pressed by a hard decision.

[] Stay in place.
- [] Recover slowly, but steadily.
[] Tell your spear-sisters and ask them to go together. They will ease your burden. (Hard 30% +1% bonus, 31% success)
Voting for aspects is still open.
You shared your will of traversing deep into the Fangs of the Sky with other women training in a spear. Three of them volunteered to go with you. Dew, slightly older female who had her arm broken during one of the fights. She survived, but it did not heal properly and her abilities dropped considerably. Wintergreen, a young girl who looks up to you. She will probably do anything you propose. You told her to reconsider her decision, but she held it firmly. Tania, who you would write off as unremarkable if not for her beauty. A lot of men was rather not pleased that she was totally unwilling for their company. You could already hear them in your mind, cursing you for taking her along.
You set out tomorrow at dawn. There is no reason to wait.
You may roll k100. You need 31 or less.

Yes, but there is an upper limit. Too many votes without a counterbalance will mess up pacing.Our civ does better with more voters right?
Gonna get more ppl from FoD to do hitandrun riot research votes
