Feud IV: The Great Revision

[Jehoshua]

ooc: it is clear the hydrats have hindered Yoshiegg in the battle that is writing updates. that said there is a maxim I very much like to use.

Patience is a virtue.

 

[Tycho]

Well, we can wait for as long as need be for yoshi to produce another update, after all real life does take precedent over Civvin'.

Let us not speak of that terrible demon again

 

[strijder20]

Seeing Yoshi hasn't updated yet, I decided to do this week's update.

Strijdens's roll : 20
All other rolls: 0

Pieter Strijdens convinces all people of Moscow to come to his apothecary shop, and he also convinces the other roleplayers. All the Russians get addicted to medicine and Pieter Strijdens vastly expands his apothecary imperium over the world. He gains 50000 prestige.
The end.

 

[filli_noctus]

Hang on, the world operates according to d20 principles, there cannot be 0's and 20's rolled. Either you're fraudulently misrepresenting rolls or you're breaking universal laws, either way, you're nicked sonny!

 

[strijder20]

Filli, the other dice fell into a singularity, causing mathematical principles to break down and a quick division by zero made zero from one.

I'm glad I got 2nd

 

[Tycho]

Filli, the other dice fell into a singularity, causing mathematical principles to break down and a quick division by zero made zero from one.

But would that not in principle create another singularity and reverse the first one?

Let us not speak of that terrible demon again

Concurred, if we do it might hear us...

 

[Yoshiegg737]

Orders Locked. Update Pending.

 

[Jehoshua]

Concurred, if we do it might hear us...

It heard our invocation in the darkness, behold the update is nigh!

Today's Events​

Random Events
Today, Emmanuele Paolo was doing his farming on the farm like he always does. However, he discovered a small metal shard on his farm. Emmanuele did not know what this shard was for, but a merchant came around and offered him 200 gold for the shard. Well, it was more forced than offered as the money was shoved in Emmanuele's hand and the merchant ran away with the shard

Pieter Strijdens had just set up his brand new apothecary shop. Lot's of sick people are entering and exiting the shop, however, and I'm sure it's not every positive on Mr. Strijden's health. Thus, today, Pieter has caught a cold and was forced to eat some of his own stock to heal himself. Not the best way to make money, as he had no money to repay the stock. He is now in debt by 20 gold.

Spread the philosophy of Daedalism to the town folk.

proclaim that Stalin was a false god and that I am Allah (pointing to lightning as a proof), while also explaining fundamentals of the true teachings of Allah to the people so that they may clear their souls of the deceptions of Stalin.

6: They still feel confused, and still believe that the lightning was pure coincidence

I wish take command of the Russian Government

I humbly request to lead the nation from here

Even if it's just for a day, the entire tribe does not wish to waste any time with their leadership. With two people wishing to become leader, both Marks and Vitaliy Kamnev will have to fight each other due to the tribes current "chiefdom" style government. Of course, you both prefer to fight in a logical manner, and in the form of debate. Due to his significantly higher prestige, Vitaliy will gain 1.5x on all his rolls.

How this will work: There will be five rounds of RNG. The higher number will win the round. Win three rounds to become the chief.

R1
Marks:----4
Kamnev:--6(9)

R2
Marks:----19
Kamnev:--9(13)

R3
Marks:----19
Kamnev:--12(18)

R4
Marks:----6
Kamnev:--18(20)

It all comes down to this!

Spoiler :

Marks:----16
Kamnev:--10(15)

The citizens of Moscow have chosen! Marks is now the chief of Moscow! Marks's new plan for Russia shall be taken in effect next turn (But to help remind the GM, re-pasting the plan in your next order will be helpful )

Marks also gains 100 prestige for winning the battle for Chief

Spread Daedalism.

19: At last, you have gotten the message of Daedalism to the citizens of Moscow. They all are willing to accept your idea of Daedalism. Due to your perseverance, Mr. Smith has granted you the new job of "Preacher of Daedalism (+40 Prestige/Turn)". You are currently now in the job, but you may choose to reject it if you so wish. As your new job doesn't interfere much with your Stone Crafter job, Mr. Smith has allowed this one case for you to keep 2 jobs

Spend 30 to improve intellegence and 30 to improve sociability

Whoa there, big spender. Lessons are only 20 gold a pop

go to Paris to find out about the number

16: Upon arriving in Paris, you discover that you will have to travel to a forest east of Paris to retrieve your information. It's recommended to have a high strength when travelling in unknown territory. Oh, you also gain 20 prestige for completing the initial task of the "Number Quest"

Emmanuele farms grains and potatoes to distill more vodka

18: So much grains and potatoes! You could open a food stall at this rate! You are now allowed to sell your crops and make a store for the front page (See Strijder's Store for more information)

I go to a place near russia, but far from the capital, which has no population, create a farm and leave peacefully before the commies get real angry and execute me.

9: Good plan, but you are unable to find fertile soil. You make a nice tiny house, however (+1 for Defense Rolls)

I go to Moscow's market and chat with some citizens. I try to convince them with my social skill to come to my apothecary shop, winning money and their trust.

12: Well you receive enough trust from them in order to receive 20 gold for your money troubles

I go to cure my stupid concussion at Herb and Power Cures and let my wounded Belarussians get treated.

If I get another action:

I promote the Islamic-Brand of Navalism among the Belarussians.

Your concussion is cured! Due to your lack of money, the services of the apothecary is free due to Pieter's price system.

11: The Belarussians begin to accept the idea of Islamic-Brand Navalism

NinjaCow, feeling tired after defeating Stalin, goes and has a nap. I will wake up by the time I come back.

15: Yeah! Take that power nap! Did you know that naps are good for the mind? (+1 Intelligence)

Go to the remnants of Stalin's followers and introduce myself as Bahá'u'lláh, indoctrinate them into the Bahá'í faith to keep them from rioting.

3: They are confused at your strange new name and are tired from listening to more new faiths after the idea of Daedalism was already introduced.

Use my prestige to take control of the soon to be built Diamond Mine and convert to Baha'i (they got purty gardens)

15: Baha'i was never accepted, but you do get the Diamond Mine. Mr. Smith has unlocked a new job for you: Diamond Miner (30 gold/turn)! You could always set up a shop, but nobody is really interested in buying diamonds. They don't know what they are.

I apply for water carrier and give out water and a sheet (see below) to the villagers, as a vesture of goodwill.

13: Your hired! I'm sure you will make a great water carrier!

I turn the hidden grove, which is located to the east of the village, into a livable grove where I will live among the spirits of the forest becoming a wise man the Russians come to for advise and answers about life

10: You now live in a grove in the forest. Not much besides that, however. Although the people of Moscow think that somebody who wishes to live in the middle of a grove is probably a wise man.

So what would be the disadvantages of joining late?

You start at 0 prestige, but not much besides that. Of course, I could always give bonuses to Canadians, but that wouldn't be very fair

Go to the forest to find information on the numbers.

Buy rat repellant

I congradulate Marks on his victory and look forward to good days for our tribe under his rule

Yes, I accept the quest. For trade!

I relay the idea of having store owners allow citizens to apply to work at that store.

Yes, I accept the quest. For trade!
