I'd rather find out what the signal is; we can always decide it's not worth our time after we know what it is, but we need to know what it is first to do that.

I'm expecting sunk cost fallacy to kick in. Two actions spent just to decode the signal and a time limit mean that if it passes now, it almost certainly will be followed up on for future actions. Probably next turn even.

That's pretty much why I've been against the signal. Other things need to get done.

I'm expecting the rewards to be solid, granted, but there are other things I feel we need.

When discussing in the Discord to help get some opinions and a timeframe for certain events for my omake, it came up that the timeline is kind of crazy.

Mr Tinker existed for like a month before Starline finds him in canon.

It also means that Belle is literally a baby who has now spent longer with Eggman than she ever did with Tinker.

Also, by our math, since roughly three months pass between the Shattering and turn 1, Turn 8 would be her first birthday so that's something to keep in mind

Things happen really fast in Sonic stories.. Remember that Sonic 1's timeframe happens over the course of about an hour give or take, Sonic CD was at most a few months after the first game, Sonic 2, 3 and Knuckles occur virtually back to back and were likely within the same year as the first game.

That horrifying on two levels. First of all, Eggman was able to build up entire industrial bases four times in a single year, once to build a planetoid super weapon on top.

Yes, he could have already had metropolis zone pre-built before Sonic 1, but CD, 3 and Knuckles? Yeah. This means that if Eggman is left unchecked for even a short amount of time he snowballs fast.

Second, Sonic tore each of these operations down in a matter of hours each time at most. That's the level of power we're talking about at the start of the series. Eggman and Sonic have only gotten stronger since.

Edit: In short, both the Restoration and GUN are absolutely right in believing that they should never, ever give us breathing room.

Also, Eggman is completely right in wanting Sonic out of the picture. Nobody else in the setting bar Shadow has been able to make a significant dent in our operations. GUN, the Resistance and everything else was completely unable to stop Eggman once the super hedgehogs were removed from the picture. No, I don't believe Infinite was the sole cause of that victory. He most likely was used to deal with the more stubborn pockets of resistance as opposed to spending every day doing the grunt work.

*Whistles* Impressive. No wonder we needed the handicap, it wouldn't be even otherwise.

Such a shame for the good guys that we've gotten plenty of it.

I'll use my +5 to Trickery in Look For The Sniper.

Edit: I also have a +5 to Metal personal this turn, it should trigger automatically, but i will write this down anyway just in case.

I'm...not sure I have any but please apply whatever logistic bonuses I have to the signal, Trickery to the search, and Heart to Janken.

The rolled for strlaine…we pray


Apparently, we also need to do something with them based on QMS lines of discord

No arguments here...what exactly do we need to do?
 
Either Starline did so well that he deserves a big reward or somehow with both bonuses and rerolls on both national and personal he failed miserably, and well..... I would have no words if that happened.
