Hmm yes it does isn't it. Didn't really pay attention to the stats at the back before you mentioned it.

Exactly half though....could it possibly a trait or something? Like when doing a honest action without ill intention to somebody your stat got halfed. Phantom Blot is classic Golden Age Toon right? I reckon it would be awkward for him to do something out of the script of his character.
If Dougal turns out to actually be Phantom, It could be the fact that this roll was a defense roll this time whereas that original roll was alone. He could have a trait that doubles on opposed intrigue rolls.
 
[ ] Develop a new Social Media Platform (Phineas & Ferb)
DC 80 (Raised by Big Idea, lowered by XP)
10+24+38+5 (XP) =77
Failure! Inator activates to reduce Failure to Miserable Failure!
I'm so happy to see my silly but mean inator idea cause some havoc. Very much looking forward to how a sandwich proved to be the vital, missing linchpin to the hot new social media platform.

That or the sandwich popped into Ferb's hand, Phineas decided that, sure, now's a good time for a lunch break, and their work computer got run over by a stray monster truck or something. Anyway, looking forward to seeing what mayhem this'll cause.
 
Norm is something I want done but I don't think its something that should be done until we've upgraded Norm Prime enough that he can pass the Turing Test.

Until Norm has a personality developed enough for Doof to actually consider him a person there is no way Doof will consider him as his son.
 
Nice work on the omake! I've enjoyed the therapy omakes you've done so far, and I honestly really like the fact that everyone is getting so much mileage out of TECHNOR, who would otherwise be a forgettable villain from an awful show. Take a well-earned 500 XP!

Tbf, Technor is the main (maybe the sole) psychatrist of a powerful, multi-species and multiracial corporation, most high-ranking employees of which have loads of issues...of course we´re getting a lot outta him once we actually care about keeping our Heroes tended to.

So that translator...that wouldn't happen to maybe help with communication with a certain Miss Flugel now would it?

I´d say so, since the main cause of their hostilities with Mankind is because of language barriers.

That being said, if we want to reach out to them at some point, we should send one of our AI Heroes to have common ground...maybe CJ?

Exactly! Now, all we have to do is wait for Janus Lee's stats to be added to our hero unit list and his hero card to be added to our personal deck! Ah, the long awaited moment is here at last!

Without knowing the source material, I expect him to be a good Stewardship/Learning Hero with maybe some notable Diplomacy on the side.
 
So, the lesson here is that we should always burn a full thousand EXP on the Turn actions.

Could have sworn somebody burned an extra 500 on the Media to get it up to 10 though...
 
For 100 XP, you can lower the DC of a roll by 1, add 1 to any one roll, or lower the critical threshold of a roll by 1. A maximum of 1000 XP can be used per roll.
@weredrago2 I figured I should ask you first before I tag MiH since you seem to be a fairly active helper to the quest. To my understanding the above rule means that, regardless of the combination of method, 1000 XP is the maximum for spending on modifying something about a roll.

However, the soc-media roll has these:
[ ] Develop a new Social Media Platform (Phineas & Ferb)
DC 80 (Raised by Big Idea, lowered by XP)
10+24+38+5 (XP) =77
The combination of the -10 DC (since the DC was supposed to be 90 due to +20) and a +5 modifier would be equivalent to 1500 XP spent. Should that roll be 72, or am I misunderstanding this?

It wouldn't change it either way since it'd still be a bare failure to then be worsened by the inator. Just curious.

well at least we avoided the PR nightmare, found Dimensional scissors potiental location and possibly found a lead on Marco

Better this than something more valuable. The for want of a sandwich inator was designed to create a quantum sandwich that would strike at a critically inopportune moment. Or deliberately not show up when needed. But only in instances where not having a sandwich was the critical component to failing. We could have had this sandwich shaped sword of Damocles hanging over our head for turns, leaving everyone to dread our inevitable sandwichy doom.
 
Discord's been talking about time bombs lately. Some of which are Bill, Phobos, Derek, Obake, and the mystery one from the prophecy.

I'd include super super big doctor, but that's just personal speculation.

Edit: Nys said that we're worrying about those time bombs when we should be worrying on making Doof the time bomb

Damnit, of all the things it's the Social Media Platfrom that goes wrong for us? The cold war against ENCOM is going to shift further against our favor, and from the name of the interlude it sounds like Kat and their gang will also quickly take to using it as a method to further plot against and subvert our reign.

This isn't an immediate problem, but it'll be an uphill battle when we get to it. And we'll probably need to put hunting down Kat as higher priority than we wanted.

Beyond that, little surprised the Dinosaur Cavalry bonus is so small, but then again our PMC is not yet a large force. I was hoping for dinosaur mongols, but dinosaur mounties are pretty swell!

...I hope patterning our security forces after the Royal CANADIAN Mounted Police won't cause too many opinion debuffs in the USA.

Looks nice, but not sure how I feel about having another FIVE options added to an already overwhelming list.
[ ] Wile E. Coyote (Look through ACME's records)
54

Wile E. spent days off in the desert in ACME's corporate HQ, digging through dusty records that dated way back to the 40s. Most of them were pretty dull and boring, but a few interesting ones came out of the 70s when Mr. Chairman first purchased the place. Not only were the expenses per year ludicrously through the roof, but apparently he had been squirreling away some money for a rainy day… or a project of some sort. Hmm. This might be worth keeping on hand for later.

(Reward: ??? unlocked for Coyote, revealed at some later date!)
Huh. Kind of expected something more earth-shattering related to Doom or something. Oh well, hope it won't take too long before this is revealed.
 
Completely, utterly unrelated, but I wonder if anyone would be willing to do a Shego Negaverse Omake. Or more negaverse omakes in general, those are always fun to read. :)
 
Uh, @Made in Heaven I think there was an error with the Social Media calc.

10+24+38+5=77 would be roll, Doof Admin, P+F Admin, and then Loyalty bonus(15% of 38 is 5.7), not EXP bonus, yes? I think it's fine otherwise though, given Weredrago burned a thousand to lower the DC and the effects of Big Idea resulting in an effective plus 10 to the DC.
 
Well, I am sure glad that we didn't put Phineas and Ferb on castle moving duties.

If somebody needs me, I'll be over there eating some crow over the LA stuff.

Good luck with that 97, Russ!

In any case, Spying on the Employees sure is starting to sound like an important thing. There is Kat, of course, but we don't want LOVEMUFFIN to go back to shenanigans against us (particularly if Janus Lee is helping them or some such thing).

I see it as maintaining the ruse of Dr. Doofenshmirtz being incompetent. P&F are locally known and their engineering genius through the selectman board also. So them failing at social media will probably jsut be attributed to Doofenshmirtz. Which also give us an advantage in the social arena. Nobody will suspect anything dangerous being conducted behind their backs with such an obvious failure on their recent cultural consciousness.

honestly they might not be worth using
