Honestly, if it's not poison immune, an oozemancer can pretty much just write it off as a threat. Mucus alone does some ludicrous amounts of damage (and a.splash spreads it freaking everywhere), and poison spores approach Impending Doom level damage throughput. And that's just three talents out of a lot >_>

It's pretty great. Don't underestimate call of the ooze, either. Massively jacked up melee attack vs. pretty much everything in sight is delicious, especially when you've got psiblades and maxed out will/cun.

It'll be interesting to see which of its orifices gets violated by the nerf bat.

It's snowing here. It's fucking spring. It shouldn't be fucking snowing. I want temperatures that don't freeze my face off.

No. No. Shut up. Quiet. Nature seems to not quite cottoned on to the whole spring thing yet. STFU and let it be clueless. You can fix face freezing with a mask or hat or something.

Face melting you just fucking face melt. Jack all you can do about that. It's not into happy happy joy joy triple digit Fahrenheit avec 90+% humidity for weeks on end land yet. For the love of all that's holy and not, don't bugger the sleeping dragon! That makes the dragon randy and then no one is safe from flaming dragon  *record scratch*

Just... leave the dragon alone. Let it sleep for a little while longer.

Madre de dios... alex, to that first one, I'm guessing you mean in conceptual space? Because we have plenty of examples of folks gunning for and getting leadership positions in the states and otherwise explicitly to do stuff even they recognize is morally bankrupt and/or illegal. We definitely have people in power trying to do bad per se. And that's not even considering the ones that are simply giving the short shift to anyone not of their own in-group!

Decent one'll last a few years if it's built alright and well taken care of, easy. I've had laptops with shit maintenance and almost constant uptime last a half decade, with a couple of years working with non-functioning cooling (it still turns on, four or five years later since I've switched computers, actually, though it barely runs.) -- and remember, the point isn't necessarily for it to last forever, just for it last long enough to transfer <more information than you could store on paper> over to a hardier medium. Something actually built to be rugged and taken care of should last at least as long, possibly longer. Might just build it to directly link to the generator instead of via a cord intermediary or something, I'unno. Be an interesting engineering project.

I call it netbook, but honestly you'd be getting something custom built for reliability, portability, shelf life, and storage capacity. It'd basically be a hardened kindle with an expanded hard drive or something along those lines. E: And push comes to shove, they're almost certainly going to be more compact than a paper medium would have been. Bring a few of spares along, you'd still be looking at a net gain in space.

Not sure how long a crank generator would last, but from what I recall they lean toward fairly tough.

Interesting thing is that SG didn't necessarily say that the agenda the people in question have is bad... just that they have one, and because of that aren't going to be primarily representing the will of the people. Even if the axe they seek to grind is overall beneficial, they've still got that as a primary goal instead of what they're ostensibly supposed to be doing. That's not really democracy, perhaps. Representative democracy at best, but that's a notably different beast compared to direct.

It's actually a bit of a viewpoint I hadn't thought of before, that corruption doesn't necessarily entail "negative corruption", if you will. Just that the power in question is being used for reasons beyond serving the people (organizing and enacting their will).

Yeek oozemancer completely melts the starting island. Slime spit (with a couple points in it... I've been stopping at 4, so far) three-shots the queen (and rolls over the ritch packs beforehand), and after that acid splash just walks the joint. Total non-issue, more or less.

Winnie the poo(s)h, man. All the cats? Tigger.

Insofar as I'm aware, that's the reference. Though I could be wrong, there. Try asking on T4's forums, DG'd probably answer.

Heart of poosh is an activatable artifact. Forget exactly what it does. Something to do with reducing equilibrium? Kelad's just a dude, far as I know.
