Based on the closeness of the vote, we can conclude that the decision-making process was highly vigorous, involved three distinct and roughly equal camps, and probably took quite some time to decide before one side eventually came out victorious.

Well, vote closed, and it looks like the orks have decided that the best place to live is a horrifically polluted swamp full of mutant monsters.
Through Fightin and Eatin, balance is obtained.

More like they were all still fightin' when a tree walked by and they started fighting to Krump it as they all chased after.
And the rest was unrecorded history :V

chemical weapons and things to punch! Yay!
 
[X] The Polluted Swamp Where There Are Mutant Monsters
Wotz Betta den a good scrap a'n sum dinnah afta a right proppa WAAAAAAAAGH!
Edit: Well crap just noticed the votes over :(
 
A New Home
It was not easy for the tribe to decide on exactly where to live in this heavily polluted forest. Not because they were picky - of course not - but because there were many places that seemed good. The bust-up between the Toof-ists, the Fungus-ites, and the Swampians seemed like it would never end, and perhaps the tribe might have fractured or wiped itself out with the violence.

In the end, however, a miracle occurred. Later on in the tribe's history, it was definitely agreed to be so. The gods had decided that the boyz should survive, so sent a giant mutated deer to gallop right through the middle of their fight, and it was just lookin' for a krumpin' by being so big and tall and existing. Most of the orks immediately gave chase, following it into the swamp. And given they were there and had all this raw deer meat to eat, it was sort of a fait accompli that they settled in the swamp.

Of course, at the time they neither had the theology nor the inclination to interpret it mythologically, and instead they just wanted to beat the shit out of the zoggin' big deer and take its horns.

In the end, two thirds of the tribe followed the deer to the swamp. The rest either hadn't survived the vigorous debate, got lost along the way, or weren't going to go live in a swamp when they had a big toof-like rock to climb or blue fungus to eat. But the new swamp dwellers had no regrets. They had a lot of giant mutant creatures trying to kill them, yes, but no regrets. Unless regrets were a kind of mutant creature. That was something up for debate.

Regardless of whether the things trying to eat them were regrets, though, they had a new home and a lot of wild animals who didn't get that orkz were the best and the strongest and needed a good krumpin'. And in the end, wasn't that what mattered?

What were the apex predators in the area (before the orks showed up)? (pick 3)
[ ] A nest of particularly large and vicious swamp boars who are gonna need a lot of zoggin' killin' to keep down and have a skull thicker than an ork's.
[ ] Vicious grot-eating mutant ants (or mut-ants, as the boyz call 'em) that spit acid, and live in tar pits.
[ ] Giant floating air-jellyfish that dangle paralysing tentacles down from their gas-bags. Also, their immature forms live in the water and aren't a good day if you step on them.
[ ] Snakes in the many rivers. So many goddamn snakes. All of them poisonous. Some of them also constrictors. Some of them bigger than the tallest trees.
[ ] Up in the tall trees, there's nests of black crow-like toothed birds that eat dead bodies, steal anything shiny like the teef out of a sleeping ork, and are smart. Prob'bly smarter than the orks, honestly.
[ ] Spiders for days. Spiders that hide in the water, spiders that spin cable-thick webs, spiders that dig holes and jump out of them. Spiders.

What terrain feature that isn't trying to eat them do the orks find?
[ ] All the rivers flow down to a zoggin' big lake that's so big you can't even see what's on the other side of it and tastes salty. Lots of birds and stuff to chuck rocks at and then eat.
[ ] There's these weird path-things that are half-sunk into the swamp and all smashed up. They're made of this black stuff that doesn't taste all that good to eat. You can walk along those paths way faster than wading through the swamp, though.
[ ] There's a pit that glows at night and which is surrounded by rusty metal shapes that are kinda oozy and sludge-y. It's probably a place of honour. Or zoggin' good luck 'cause there's water at the bottom an' it glows blue.

Once again this is a blast and we haven't even gotten to the meat of the the quest where we grow our tribe and go around krumpin everyone else!

You can't not have boars for orks and every swamp needs a radioactive hole in it

I'm not saying I want the orks to harness air-jellyfish to become sky- and sea-pirates, but I'm not not saying that.

Lol, the birds are smarter than the orks. I shouldn't be surprised.

Frankly, I just want to see the effects of the water on the orks that drank it.

Oi, boyz! You lotz know why we gotta go krump da stars? 'Cause ov all ov dem zoggin' fings wot are up in the sky where a boy can't reach to punch 'em! Yeah, wots da point ov dem floaty air-bag fings if dey stay up dere all da time and ain't gonna come down for a scrap? And da birds! Dey're even worse! One of 'em nabbed all my teef the other day, an' before I could bash its 'ead in, it flew up to da trees! So I sayz we gotta git up to da skies so's we can krump anyfing wot finks it can get out ov a fight just by bein' 'igher up! An' first step to dat is using dem big long snakes as ladders to climb up there an' git some payback!

Boyz. I gotz a great idea, right. Da twinkin' little bastards up dere wot we gotta go punch, dey glow, yeah? And dat water at da bottom of da pit, dat glows too. So if we drink da water, we'll glow, and den we can go up to da stars and 'av a good scrap with 'em!
