Turn in ~30 hours. For real this time.
(I'm not opposed to extensions in principle, but we will not be having week-long turns like in RSL2  :-\)

I tried to play chess but two of my opponents were playing competitive checkers as a third person walked in with Game of Thrones in hand confused cause they thought this was the book club.

People are still forming alliances, so the auctions will not be done within 8 hours. Requesting an extension.
I need no further extension.

Explorators Union buys Dr Ally Reiff's indenture for 3₣
Dr. Fitz Envin's indenture is discounted.

You learn from the natives of a powerful precursor artifact called the Great Pearl of Charmark. Some legends say it is the ultimate weapon, others that it allows one to transcend this dimension. Sceptics say that it is a bauble of purely symbolic significance. One thing is clear: whoever finds it will secure a place in history as some of the greatest tomb raiders archeologists who ever lived, while all others will be forgotten. (finding GPC is now the win condition of the game)

About chests: During your expeditions you will sometimes find locked chests, boxes, cabinets and other containers. Locks can be picked and, if that proves impossible, broken. Generally the harder the lock is to open the more loot you will find. Lockpicking is a dexterity test that requires lockpicks, while breaking is a strength test that requires a crowbar.
