Honestly, that sort of thing seems much more likely to be Celestial or Light to me.
It's been floated and vetoed, I'm afraid.
I assure you, I would be all about Photocopy No Jutsu if it were within our capabilities to acquire.
Unfortunately, I swore a solemn oath not to use my powers against other voters.Aww man this is a great post. The real issue with Waystone in the lead is people like me who are "anything but Loremaster" and so have approval voted it. So if you really want Markgraf maybe use your amazing effortpost skills against Loremaster too
Omegahugger, not Omegapuncher!
God that's just way to fitting.
So I've barely kept up this thread/vote, outside of making like two posts on it, but... Okay, so. People are allowed to call in their friends to come vote in this thread, or to go and poke people who've posted here once and never again, or whatever, to come in and make a vote-without-elaboration. This is totally fine and kosher and the regulars in the thread just have to put up with this and not question or or gripe about it.
I'm glad someone Saw What I Did There.
I disagree with your post because I strongly disagree with this assumption. It is a level of pessimism I think is totally unwarranted by the actual text of the quest. Mathilde isn't that pessimistic; she thinks that by collating what humans, Eonir, and dwarves remember, there's chance for real progress:
"Forget the in-character assessment of the project from someone who actually exists in this universe and is a high-powered researcher, we're gonna have to go seek out forbidden knowledge from Karag Dum and dark elves" is... A Take. And I'll grant you that those are probably sources of information that would be very rich if we could mind them! But I strongly object to "oh, we're doomed to spinning our wheels and getting nowhere unless we embrace extreme measures."
FWIW, I think the bolded behavior is not fine. I don't do it. Hell, I did the opposite of that; my friend whom I invited to actually come out and vote on this because she's a long-term reader is voting in opposition to my preferences. But I also can't stop anyone from doing it, and I can't call anyone on it because it doesn't happen here in the thread. But I think jumping on a new voter and being like "hey, could you change your vote" is bleh, and that it makes the thread a tenser and more uncomfortable place, and I don't think it was wrong to say so.
I don't approve of any of that but there's not really anything that can be done about the other ones.
You don't know how many people would not have voted for Bodyguard in the first place without approval voting. I might for instance not have.
Hard disagree. Belegar has no power over Runelords. He doesn't even have any native to K8P. Thorek is the Runelord of Karak Azul and we will or won't recruit him based on our own relationship with him. And the idea that Kragg will be swayed to do something he disagrees with by anyone is ludicrous to the extreme.
For some personal ambition perhaps, but we don't need a favor we earned from the Empire, as administrated by the Emperor Luitpold, in order to help us strengthen the reputation and political capital of the Emperor's own family.
I didn't even notice that it was an -o-. I've been pronouncing it Seviriscope all this time. And I think I prefer my pronunciation and spelling, so I'll just stick to it
.I don't understand. That's true no matter which job we take.
