I mean, I'm pretty sure our amount of successes this turn happened to fall along that ratio as well.

I don't think they'd want to be kings in all honesty. Well Daffy might but Bugs probably knows that isn't really what he wants.
In any case I can see them being a non king faction that doesn't really do much beyond put on shows and generally enjoying the spotlight without having to worry about bills.
Right up until someone is stupid enough to piss them off. While I imagine they aren't the strongest units out there both of them (especially Bugs) are the kind of karmic force that could cause a lot of problems for pretty much anyone who wronged them.

they don't really do subtle either so it would more than likely end with giant chunks of illicit business getting interrupted and thrown into random chaos. possibly affecting more of the crime factions than just the one they strike against. may lead to more attacks on them or cause people a stay away order if the damage is big enough they are just one casino after all and not a criminal one at that. don't go poking the cosmic karma tiger.

Yeah, pretty sure they´d be content as "Dukes/Princes"
more like 160

250? I knew this was a team effort but holy cow, this quest is huge.
Or just a raw stat block. dont even need to know what faction rolled which rolls, and what they did. just two numbers. how many overall fails, and how many overall success among the rival factions.

Did you... NOT KNOW... that we fired the Probabilitinator?
Because every normal success turned into a critical success this turn. You... know that... right?
And I assume you... do know... that our rivals usually undertake actions that they expect will succeed, not fail, right?
So... you would be aware, I assume... that enemy actions would on average succeed most of the time, as opposed to failing most of the time?
So why the sense of shock and betrayal when roughly 80% of randomly chosen rival actions happen to be successful, and then chain into critical successes?

failing an action can lower the DC of a potintial action, provided it's not a crit fail. so if you have enough bonuses to get a high DC action out of the crit-fail range, it is a viable stratagy to take the action even if it fails, just for the chance that it might lower the DC to one you have a better chance of passing it. long-term research in effect.

.........I am finally realizing that Doof would actually be terrifying if actually tried to be "Conquer and Enslave Every being in the cosmos" evil. I mean he manage to create a device that even affects the toon force.....that just plain out terrifying.

QM explicitly specified the amount of rolls needed for that particular RR at least as 250
That being said, Toffees attempt to suceed only had about 2% success chance, which means that he expected to fail there or was being really cocky alternatively.

It could be something like the nuclear power research, in that he'd need to look for Star for a long time before getting actual results, and continued actions would result in the DC lowering.

Hopefully the critfail set him back several turns then

I'm aware of the inator yes.
My point of contention is that the portrayal of the results could use some improvement

Huh, you know I hadn't thought about Brendan Frasier, Actor Turned Superspy, being a thing in this quest, even though we quite clearly had Steve Martin's ACME Chairman from the same movie in Wile E Coyote's Intro scene. . .

Star crit succeeded where Toffee crit failed. He's absolutely taking a significant setback from this.

I think a lot of the crankiness is happening because we decided to play it really safe with our actions, which means that 1) our crit fails feel more unfair than those our rivals got and 2) our crit successes, aside from the one with the dimensional travel thingy, don't feel that impressive because they didn't achieve anything that was a big challenge anyway.
Eh in any case, I suppose it wouldn't hurt (much) to see them all just one time.
I thought it was 125?

So something I just learned, the three-episode miniseries Dinotopia was co-produced by Disney. Does that mean it is a part of the Gridlocked setting? 
Askin' because, while it might never become relevant, I am tempted to write an omake about it. Because an island of sapient dinosaurs being out there would be funny given we resurrected regular dinosaurs.

Yeah it was on ABC back in the day and there were talks about a tv show that ultimately never materialized

There was TV series that was a sequel to the miniseries (not sure if Disney also had a hand in that), and it ran for 13 episodes.
No, no, no.
....Yes. It was an absolute nostalgia trip since I watched the mini-series back when I was young. I love dinosaurs, man.
Are we able to build a lost friend-inator?
If we built a Dip-no-exist-inator Doom would have a stroke out of sheer rage.
A toon-undip-inator let him literally explode with rage.

There's a general rule of don't break the setting with the Pharmasist's lasers.
You could submit an inator that theoretically makes it easier to mess with Doom (e.g. everyone has Russ's "Tooned In" trait for a turn). But you would also have to add an inator to the list that would make it harder to the same degree (e.g. All Toon related actions have a -10).
