Someone else said it was albino. I mentioned that albino animals are not generally considered 'beautiful' due to various related defects and nonviability.Okay... why did you call it albino, then? Or did I just misread what the context of the argument you said this within was?
The thing with hinges is you're doing small, fine work, with not at all fine tools. Hinges made out of wood would require being able to reliably cut a hole the same size and shape as a dowel, which is far harder than it sounds without the use of a rasp or file. I believe the typical method of doing it is to burn and chip at the wood.On a practical level, yeah, a slider which requires jointed wood would be difficult to create with stone tools. Hinges, though, are small enough that carving them would be practical on an artisanal level. Or at least as practical as creating a door is. I'm debating the necessity of metal for creation, not application on the agricultural version of an industrial scale. I.e. I'm being pedantic and have ceased to care other than wanting to be right, which is unhelpful.
Its the sort of thing I could see a Xohyssiri artisan inventing for a noble, but the Ymaryn would consider something like that a frivolity and not worth further development for a fair while yet.
And personally I don't care much about being right other than as a "give your best effort" thing. If I'm wrong then it's at least made in good faith.
@Academia Nut
Is there some distinction in the rowdiness caused by overflow on Quality of It's Own compared to base Martial? Because it seems to me that due to how we spend Econ, we'd be dipping in and out of the stress point basically at random over the turn.
Hmm, would that be considered a stress point for evolving the trait?
Actually they do:I'm not sure why you think that. The provinces don't have a history for snagging weird new technologies until after we develop it at a national level first.
-Redshore expanded the snails more on their own than we did.
-Northshore figure out watchtowers on their own after seeing Redshore do snail towers.
-Sacred Forest adopted the bluestone quarry despite the central government forgetting about it entirely.
I think it's safe to say that we'd be getting a vineyard in the next 2 turns. Next turn by province, or the turn after manually.
