Alchemical Solutions [Worm/Exalted] Thread 18: Ravaging Rapscallions Rapidly Regret Regular Rampages

The vote options for this chapter were quite confusing and hard to make plans for.
Vote complexity, it was like...6 of us trying to find an optimal solution we can all agree on(we spent the last 24 hours quibbling over small details), while everyone else sits back and hopes for something they can understand.
5 high complexity, interdependent vote options tend to do that.
The more interlinked and the higher complexity, the fewer voters move until the plan is 'perfect'. Especially if it's a high consequence vote where we might lose characters if we put them wrongly.
[X] Docks Shelter: Alexandria, Clockblocker, Marrow, Weaver
- [X] Stunt: "NOW!" Perfect timing. With Crawler focused on Vajra, the young Striker darts out from the frozen rubble, sliding underneath an errant tentacle as he slaps the monstrosity's rear leg. "Excellent. Now help Alexan-" The Siberian erupts from a storage container, your bugs giving barely enough warning to dodge. Clever girl...but you're not the hunter here.
[X] Street King Castle: Bladedancer, Narwhal, Who
- [X] Stunt: In a trashed penthouse suite, a confident voice whispers into PRT Officer Sasha Freeman's ear, "Target sighted, check your six." She slides off the musty chair, sweeps glass from the broken window on the other side of the room. "Where?" "Switch to TacNet EMscan." "...I see him." She chambers the PRT-issued Tinkertech round into her rifle. "Synchronize your shots. Five..."
[X] Boulder Builder Mountain: Feral, Inquisition, Kid Win, Maestro, Slate, Weld, Wyld
- [X] Stunt: "You think darkness is gonna scare me? Jack said I'm a Big Girl! Tactical Hug! ...wait. Why didn't that work?" For the briefest instant Weld pondered how the puzzled, pouting Bonesaw could be simultaneously adorable and utterly terrifying. He pushes it from his mind, focusing instead on Geode's relayed instructions. He charges through the smoldering wreckage, converging on Bonesaw's location.
[X] PRT Downtown Headquarters: Chevalier, Gully, Miss Militia, Willow
- [X] Stunt: There was a thunderous crack as the ground in front of Gully's shovel buckled, forming a jagged path leading to the PRT building. Pillars of fire, ash, and sizzling haze raised towards the sky in response, confirming her suspicions. Gully placed a gentle, almost motherly hand on Willow's shoulder, "And that's why you don't give Tinkers time to prepare."
[X] Philadelphia General Hospital: Bulldozer, Gallant, Skein
- [X] Stunt: Skein grimaces as another bomb detonates in the hallway, turning her frilly cloth mouse into prismatic confetti. Fucking Tinkers. This sentiment is shared by Bulldozer, who is busy using a cyberpanther to bat the cybergorilla through the wall. Gallant, on the other hand, is slightly traumatized by the implications as yet another zombie sinks to its knees in crushing despair.
[X] EOA - Free Action: You take a - thankfully stink-free - breath of air as you relay, "Thanks, Gust! Next, assist Legend in clearing the city of drones so we can establish sniper team coverage. Oh, and I'm sure Hatchet Face will be rendered speechless when you..." You juke out of the way of Siberian's leaping slash. Some people just can't appreciate a good joke.
[X] FPoP - Free Action: "Crawler. You desire pain. Growth." The tentacled monstrosity drops the broken compactor, confused. "SO?" "You fight me, when your compatriots could better fuel your transformation." "YOUR POINT." "Bakuda's seeds blight the landscape." "JACK SAID -" "- Jack shackles you. He denies you those that could hasten your evolution. Follow -" "- NO TRICKS. YOU FLY, THEY DIE." "No tricks. I seek your end."

Doesn't help that every vote was a write in this time around. Building our strategy from the ground up without imposed guidelines is somewhat intimidating. Normally we have a base set of votes to quibble over and decide what they mean, then we can modify them with stunts. Here we started from the ground up. A daunting task one could say.
I think this is pretty much it. Past votes where people have been burned by roughly a million divergent plans leave the voters wary of making snap decisions - and with the degree of complexity here, finalized plans didn't go up for a while.
The funny thing here is that it was explicitly noted how there weren't any wrong votes, and people still went into Maximum Overtactician Mode. Which makes sense, to a degree - Taylor's going to deploy people in a sensible configuration - but we probably blew right by the point of diminishing returns on this one.
Voting looked really complicated. I just looked over what other people were doing and figured it looked good enough.
I generally only bother voting when something I feel really strongly about comes up, like making Accord a part of our plans. Since you told us there wasn't any wrong decisions, I didn't really care what everyone else choose, because it wasn't like their mistakes could mess up the quest for me.

Naw, I figure people just got overwhelmed by the number of choices. Not only did we need to come up with a bunch of write-ins, we also needed to figure out where to put a whole bunch of different people.
People see all the shit they need to figure out and they clam up.
OTOH, I'm actually kinda happy with how the vote turned out, but that might be my bias from being the primary stunt writer talking.
"Most" he saysThe 6 of us most active in the discussion of the final configuration are the same six who do most of the stunt writing anyway
This was less of a vote and more of a discussion to work out a solution that is ok with everyone with enough time to actually participate meaningfully.
I personally just gave some input at the start and then let the others handle the rest
I personally just gave some input at the start and then let the others handle the rest
There's a few others chipping in, but usually it boils down to one of us making stunts and then the final vote degenerates into yelling at each other for writing dumb stunts and then people dogpile into one of 2 camps to make sure their disfavored stunt doesn't win."Most" he says
All in good fun.
The planning did boil down to one plan after a long discussion. That usually leads to low vote counts. If there had been more plans there would have been more votes, but since the people who usualy make plans achived consensus about what to do others didn't feel the need to vote. Or like me were simply too late in casting their vote.

losing sleep to gain lost time.
i just figured i don't have time to think this threw and as complex as it looked id have to write some of the info down to make a choice that was mine . so i'd just let everyone else choose and then blame them when it all goes horribly wrong.
In my case, I misjudged timing, and you closed the vote 7 minutes before I was going to post my
[X] plan FunkyEntropy
Edit: That, and I agree with Alexandria wrt the twins, and really don't feel like arguing with the people who are very, very emphatic that they don't.

Because FunkyEntropy doesn't have:
Not that I'm not following or losing interest in the quest its just very hard to vote on these things when you are coordinating for a literal deep strike on enemy territory ageist one of the Overpowered Villian groups in Worm and have no tactics experience.
It's not like 99% of the people posting have any real tactical experience outside of say D&D or similar games. People should remember that this is a game as well as a story and that (depending on your playstyle) most of the time a good GM isn't actually trying to kill you and is just trying to almost kill you.

- [x] Stunt: Skein grimaces as another bomb detonates in the hallway, turning her frilly cloth mouse into prismatic confetti. Fucking Tinkers. This sentiment is shared by Bulldozer, who is busy using a cyberpanther to bat the cybergorilla through the wall. Gallant, on the other hand, is slightly traumatized by the implications as yet another zombie sinks to its knees in crushing despair.

[X] EOA - Free Action: You take a – thankfully stink-free - breath of air. "Thanks, Gust!" A bug flies to the pair above, granting IEU. "Next, assist Legend in clearing the city of drones so sniper team coverage can be optimized. I'm sure Hatchet Face will be rendered speechless when you…" You spin away from Siberian's leaping slash. Some people can't appreciate a joke.

I wasn't commenting on the plan, because I honestly don't have the time to think it through. Also, Gromweld said that there are no bad plans, because Weaver has ridicolous dice for this thing. It was more of a comment on the method. It might have been better to have a first round where people debate plans and mak 2-3 different ones and a second one where people choose from these possibilities.
