Sure you did, Keiko.
And isn't Hana just a great person? She made you feel better and even complimented your skill!
Hana merely conceded an argument without promising anything substantial. There are plenty of ways to put that woman down without open hostility.

This was it. Or a Sunday update, possibly. In accordance with the prophecy, an update posted before close of voting will not be based on a plan, and the plan will be executed in the Thursday update instead.

It's really weird for Keiko to just fix things like that. It's especially weird for Keiko to win social fu against someone who is presumably leagues better than her. I expect that Hana actually won and just let Keiko think she won because she didn't want Keiko infuriated with her.
Also Mari is legitimately a pretty messed up human being.

Ha! As if. Keiko with agency is a sight to behold.

But didn't Keiko violate Hazou's, Hana's and Mari's agency by butting into their fight?
A behavioral trait she must have learned from Hazou himself. One which resulted in fixing the problem.
Do you guys know what this means?
Ignoring NPC agency just got validated by a QM as the most optimal strategy for any situation - so lets keep doing it.
In fact, I hope the winning plan includes Hazou finding a girlfriend for Noburi because he is such a nice bro and he deserves to be happy. We should ask Mom for tips.
KEI: ...and balance is restored.

Meh, I don't see it. Obviously once the conversation begins Hana was navigating it well; but she still had to make some concessions.
It seems the 'get Mari out of here' plan would have been better if this entire conversation didn't happen at all.
Also remember Keiko has 21 in diplomacy. It's not bad.

Diplomacy doesn't exist.
Kei's socials are:
- Deceit (lie to people) 10
- Empathy (figure people out) 10
- Intimidation (scare people) 20+6
- Presence (assume leadership) 24
- Rapport (get people to like you) 10
- Resolve (pure defence) 20

Hm, I googled for her character sheet but obviously found the wrong one.

Yup, that was her pre-rework sheet.

We need to get Keiko Shadow Clones ASAP. If clone!Keiko really wouldn't have Frozen Skein, can you imagine what the two of them would be able to accomplish together? A motivated Keiko gets results. What would a motivated Keiko with a self-made plan be capable of?
Perhaps we don't need Ami after all.
1. Or at least Step 1 of the strategy.

That's not the lesson I took from it...? The most optimal strategy1 for any situation is to throw an angry Keiko at the problem.

Yeah I'm calling it as like 3% that Keiko actually won that social.

I would rather you didn't. It's not quite a DO NOT MESS WITH TIME situation, but the two activity sets don't mesh well together in my mind, both practically and especially given how intimacy-starved Hazō and Hana are.

Define "won".
For reference, the character sheets are in my sig. Social builds are below, dump stats are in red, important stats are in blue. For why some stats are important and others aren't, see my numerous rants on the subject.
Hazou:
Hazou:
- Deceit 24
- Empathy 10
- Intimidation 5+4
- Presence 15
- Rapport 10
- Resolve 20
- Deceit 8
- Empathy 20
- Intimidation 9+4
- Presence 10
- Rapport 24

I was under the impression that we proposed a rebalance/buff that met with your approval. Am I wrong?
- Location
- Yes.
Eh, I count it as a win for Keiko. She isn't a sobbing, incoherent mess on par with with Hana after she thought that Hazou was killed-killed.
Um... I don't recall such a conversation. Although that's not to say it didn't happen. I don't suppose you can find the quote?

I would praise you for giving the QMs ideas, but I feel like Mari is already filling that party slot quite well.
Please stand by while we try to correct you.

This one? I wrote an analysis on it, but I don't think it was ever stated that that was a proposed reform. If it is though, it looks good.
e: As far as MadScientist's stat spreads go, though, our prospective stat spreads should remain the same for Hazou and Noburi. Not sure about Keiko, though.
