sorry Pickle but I have to agree: as loremaster we did a lot of research.
missing the Sylvana stuff then
I hope that if he goes for nine investigations he does it in not much less than five updates. Maybe occasionally have us vote on decisions that are relevant to the place we went to find out more, but to the job itself if he's worried of making this too much not a quest in the meantime.
You still voted for Nagarythe though. Just to mark down your interest for later reference?
That's because it's about which job offer to investigate. As a job it has lots of drawbacks, but learning why and by whom we were offered this job could be quite interesting.
Ah. Signatures don't appear on my mobile except if I turn the screen sideways, so I missed that.
If there was a fixed number of options that go to next stage, then only the position on the ladder would matter and you'd be correct. However that is not the case.
Queekish and Rite of Way I can see, but how was the Tower research? It looks like engineering to me.
Queekish is arguable, and I guess I can see how developing a new spell might count as research from the perspective of how it reads to the thread even if new knowledge isn't actually gained, but the tower? That seems very weird to me. There was no research there whatsoever, it was just an engineering challenge where we applied known and well-understood principles at a large scale.
Yeah, I don't see Sylvania as being particularly new either, but I was a little torn.
I'll note that big, permanent magics like this are more the remit of Rituals, by my understanding.
We can help the Empire as much as we can help the dwarves, and we know an extraordinary amount about the dwarves already. We are also as deep into their good books as it is probably possible to be - we will get more out of plying our talents elsewhere.
We did research Queekish, which you have only counted as a Task.
I don't know. It sounds like when someone is worried about wasting bread and thus never eats fresh bread anymore because there's always some from yesterday.
If that's true it will remain true if we focus on doing -10 papers. It's just that we'll be forever doing -10s, rather than +10s, giving ourselves a mallus on paper writing equal to the gambler bonus.
... i admit, I did not realize what I just wrote there. opps. (meant Pickle.)
My point remains that we will both get more elsewhere, and that there are people are voting to stay because they're clinging hard to old social contacts despite being within social-action distance of them in every other option except Lustria.
Or just do them with Horstman, and he'll marshall his triple-team choir of scribes to snaffle the first publisher credit.
Most people barely manage to keep up with BoneyM's posts. You really think that there's anything like a large enough quorum of players that specifically checked your (admittedly valuable) effort post for flaws so as to be able to assert consensus?
