Literally, the land burns, a big fire can lower the ground level by several feet. 06-06-2018 07:00:41 < syv!syvarris@2001:5b0:2a6c:linx:ymxm:xljg:wsiv:pnjr: That's rare though. 06-06-2018 07:10:49 < Devastator!chatzilla@s69-19-104-268.bchsia.telus.net: okay, finished the initial stat-grinding, then the game can begin. 06-06-2018 07:11:09 < Devastator!chatzilla@s69-19-104-268.bchsia.telus.net: which I'll do later. 06-06-2018 07:11:35 < syv!syvarris@2001:5b0:2a6c:linx:ymxm:xljg:wsiv:pnjr: Stat grinding? Just getting a job and learning about stuff like the bookstore, I guess? 06-06-2018 07:12:29 < Devastator!chatzilla@s69-19-104-268.bchsia.telus.net: basically. And getting a few points of health, a second point of reason, and some stats for better paintings. 06-06-2018 07:13:48 < Devastator!chatzilla@s69-19-104-268.bchsia.telus.net: I'll see if I can get a few lore fragments from the bookstore and decide what to found the cult on. 06-06-2018 07:15:05 < syv!syvarris@2001:5b0:2a6c:linx:ymxm:xljg:wsiv:pnjr: Does the founding principle actually even matter? 06-06-2018 07:16:37 < Devastator!chatzilla@s69-19-104-268.bchsia.telus.net: Well, it's the only principle I can use to promote followers, and I can only get seers, that is, fully upgraded cult members who have that principle as a stat. 06-06-2018 07:20:29 < Devastator!chatzilla@s69-19-104-268.bchsia.telus.net: I think I'll want either Grail or Edge, which will let me get 10-stat people who can kidnap or seduce people at random. 06-06-2018 07:23:23 < syv!syvarris@2001:5b0:2a6c:linx:ymxm:xljg:wsiv:pnjr: In other words, recruiters? 06-06-2018 07:51:05 < Devastator!chatzilla@s69-19-104-268.bchsia.telus.net: no, not recruiters. 06-06-2018 07:51:12 < Devastator!chatzilla@s69-19-104-268.bchsia.telus.net: people who get prisoners. 06-06-2018 07:52:26 < syv!syvarris@2001:5b0:2a6c:linx:ymxm:xljg:wsiv:pnjr: Do you eat prisoners? 06-06-2018 07:52:42 < Devastator!chatzilla@s69-19-104-268.bchsia.telus.net: Yeah, later on. 06-06-2018 07:52:48 < Devastator!chatzilla@s69-19-104-268.bchsia.telus.net: and I'll need a steady supply when that happens. 06-06-2018 07:53:00 < Devastator!chatzilla@s69-19-104-268.bchsia.telus.net: I can shove followers into prison, too. 06-06-2018 07:53:47 < Devastator!chatzilla@s69-19-104-268.bchsia.telus.net: but it seems like they're a limited resource. 06-06-2018 08:16:22 -!- syv!syvarris@2001:5b0:2a6c:linx:ymxm:xljg:wsiv:pnjr has quit [Quit: Got away safely!] 06-06-2018 21:39:53 -!- ER!ER@33-305-828-39.dhcp.ahvl.nc.charter.com has joined #einsteinianroulette 06-06-2018 21:52:22 < Devastator!chatzilla@s69-19-104-268.bchsia.telus.net: Heya. 06-06-2018 21:54:50 < ER!ER@33-305-828-39.dhcp.ahvl.nc.charter.com: hi 06-06-2018 22:29:00 < ER!ER@33-305-828-39.dhcp.ahvl.nc.charter.com: https://youtu.be/GP5bjLgeJdw shiny 06-06-2018 23:16:12 < Devastator!chatzilla@s69-19-104-268.bchsia.telus.net: I see no gameplay. 06-06-2018 23:16:13 < Devastator!chatzilla@s69-19-104-268.bchsia.telus.net: ;-p 06-06-2018 23:17:36 < Devastator!chatzilla@s69-19-104-268.bchsia.telus.net: having just terrible luck in this Cult Simulator run. 06-06-2018 23:17:43 < Devastator!chatzilla@s69-19-104-268.bchsia.telus.net: won't go into details, but damn, I have shitty luck. 06-06-2018 23:24:03 < ER!ER@33-305-828-39.dhcp.ahvl.nc.charter.com: Strangely, seems like almost everyone is failing the RNG actions. 06-06-2018 23:24:26 < ER!ER@33-305-828-39.dhcp.ahvl.nc.charter.com: I wonder if it's broken in some subtle way. 06-06-2018 23:26:18 < Devastator!chatzilla@s69-19-104-268.bchsia.telus.net: in what? 06-06-2018 23:27:24 < ER!ER@33-305-828-39.dhcp.ahvl.nc.charter.com: cultist sim? 06-06-2018 23:27:27 < Devastator!chatzilla@s69-19-104-268.bchsia.telus.net: It doesn't seem rigged or anything, but it just isn't seeming to be the best of luck. Lotsa failures. 06-06-2018 23:27:39 < Devastator!chatzilla@s69-19-104-268.bchsia.telus.net: Maybe people are used to games that rig it in the player's favor. 06-06-2018 23:27:46 < Devastator!chatzilla@s69-19-104-268.bchsia.telus.net: Last run was very lucky for the most part. 06-06-2018 23:28:00 < ER!ER@33-305-828-39.dhcp.ahvl.nc.charter.com: lot of people report repeated failures, even when the text says "very likely to succeed" or such 06-06-2018 23:28:19 < Devastator!chatzilla@s69-19-104-268.bchsia.telus.net: Yeah, but very likely to succeed seems to be, as far as I can tell, 50% or better. 06-06-2018 23:28:28 < Devastator!chatzilla@s69-19-104-268.bchsia.telus.net: with different numbers for different situations. 06-06-2018 23:28:34 < ER!ER@33-305-828-39.dhcp.ahvl.nc.charter.com: the rolls aren't very transparant, that's for sure. 06-06-2018 23:28:47 < Devastator!chatzilla@s69-19-104-268.bchsia.telus.net: Eh, I think I've figured out a few things. 06-06-2018 23:29:25 < ER!ER@33-305-828-39.dhcp.ahvl.nc.charter.com: in XCOM, if you play on easy mode your chance of hitting is higher than what's shown on the UI by some amount. :p 06-06-2018 23:29:34 < Devastator!chatzilla@s69-19-104-268.bchsia.telus.net: Had some really bad luck with timing earlier. Damn guy started an investigation at just the right moment to hit a 10 second window where I'm not dealing with the one point of notoriety on the board. 06-06-2018 23:29:42 < Devastator!chatzilla@s69-19-104-268.bchsia.telus.net: Same with Fire Emblem, and a lot of other games. 06-06-2018 23:31:12 < Devastator!chatzilla@s69-19-104-268.bchsia.telus.net: I've had some good luck, it's just been mostly bad. 06-06-2018 23:31:16 < Devastator!chatzilla@s69-19-104-268.bchsia.telus.net: like the last game was mostly good. 06-06-2018 23:31:56 < ER!ER@33-305-828-39.dhcp.ahvl.nc.charter.com: in XCOM 2, the hacking interface lies to you in a stranger way. The percentage chance it shows you is totally accurate, but IF you fail the roll, it then rolls a second time and shows you the higher result. It doesn't actually change the chance of success, it just makes things look closer than they really are, for "drama" 06-06-2018 23:32:21 < Devastator!chatzilla@s69-19-104-268.bchsia.telus.net: Heh. 06-06-2018 23:33:01 < Devastator!chatzilla@s69-19-104-268.bchsia.telus.net: To make it worse, even if I'd failed to deal with the notoriety, his evidence would have evaporated before he could get it back from the guy failing to deal with it. 06-06-2018 23:33:22 < Devastator!chatzilla@s69-19-104-268.bchsia.telus.net: instead that 10 second gap will mean a trial and possible death. 06-06-2018 23:34:57 < Devastator!chatzilla@s69-19-104-268.bchsia.telus.net: but yeah, I think the RNG is fair, it is just that 'odds are good' may mean odds are like 60-40 or 70-30 or something like that, which means lots of failures.
