I was referring to our reasoning, not our actions.
(unrelatedly, god I hate english. I can never remember which words double up on consonants on conversion to the -ing form and which don't.)

"...and then they all died, along with the rest of the world, because they failed to account for the possibility that a biosealing mistress might have figured out a way to augment her intelligence to the point of being able to create seals that were even better at augmenting intelligence, ad infinitum. This resulted in the creation of a new tailed beast, which promptly wiped out all human life within roughly fifty miles of its origin."
Speaking of which, as a group of folks largely associated with the rationalist community, we've put a surprisingly small amount of effort into identifying and obtaining intelligence-augmenting jutsu, as far as I'm aware.
E: If everything turns out OK this update, I'd be willing to try my hand at a Bad End. If we all die, I dunno, I'll start a spinoff AU quest where everything went great.

Probably because every intelligence-augmenting jutsu is actually putting horrible voices in your head. Just look at the Mori clan.

I dunno, something seems to have gone right with Hazou. By which token, 'intelligence-enhancing jutsu' is basically recruiting a larger number of active contributors....
HEY LURKERS! START POSTING!!

I would love to look for techniques on the level of the pangolin conditioning jutsu for other stats, setting entirely aside the roleplaying aspects of it.

+1 for remembering that, I'd forgotten that part of the fluff for Frozen Skein.
Also hah, my lurker summoning technique worked!

The Nara's bloodline makes the users Lazy As Fuck, which is why we don't see them ruling the world.

Hivemind probably counteracts that at least somewhat. Next character should be a Nara confirmed.

Huh, that's how we should solve the Friendly gAI problem1. Making them lazy so they don't want to actually do anything.
[1]: Not to be confused with the "Friendly Gai Problem" which is what Kakashi has to deal with every single day.

Gives "shadowy government organization" a whole new meaning when it's the Nara :lol
Maybe we "die" in a sealing accident via battle with the biosealer and we get to travel the multiverse? I am thinking a visit to a vanilla Earth for rest and recuperation?
