I liked the idea of the politicians having pet cogs. Unrelated, but I think around when Necrothreat V begins, since the 2016 election won't be topical anymore then, I'll update the politicians' caste list.

I feel like every time the Forumechs get mentioned, the thread instantly derails.

I understand what you mean, however it beats radio silence until Sprin posts and is relevant enough to the discussion.


Three cheers for a possible loyalty cascade!

One would even call it a... loyalty spiral.



All said though, how dead are we, Sprin?

Yes, but three people have tried to post story stuff recently, one of which is trying to get his (new) character established.

...I can tell that there's a joke here, but I'm not sure what it is.

Glass is, as usual, correct.
Yep, as ever, I bestow upon Glass the expected +1
I'm gonna say we go with whatever Glass's idea is.

In the game there exists a thing called a tantrum spiral. It's when one dwarf forumites in the presence of others and they also start tantruming, ending with everybody being absolutely useless and angry, grinding progress to a halt. Happens when they're at a very low emotional level and just one tantrum will flip them off the edge.

I was playing off of that, but with loyalty doing the same.

Ah. Well, the wiki calls it a Loyalty Cascade.

EDIT: I already knew what a tantrum spiral was. I may not play DF, but I've been reading these forums for a decently long while.

Finally! I was beginning to think only Glass could see my posts.

So what polititians can I expect other then the Orange God Emperor and Lady Voldemort?

Sprin, what is happening in the fort? Don't come on here to post about little nothings when we're all waiting to hear what's going on in the game.

Someone doesn't know suspense

also I'm taking notes on what is happening and getting a friend to help me write it into something more flavorful so it's not shit like all my other entries.

Mitt Romney and George Bush, too.

It might be intersting for them to be able to worship such gods as George Washington and Thomas Jefferson.

Also: are the Politicians the humans or the goblins? I don't remember.

Any chance of Sprin having to fight Zombie Andrew Jackson and his duel pistols, or is it only recent politicians?

Other than them, there's Obama, Sanders, every Republican primary candidate from 2016, Gary Johnson, Jill Stein, and Ed McMullin. I think that's all.
You forgot the Clintons and the entirity of the DNC.

That list I gave is all the ones I have now. I only did 2016 canidates+Obama.

The politician civ is based on goblins, with altered equipment.

Romney and the Bushes would be both a good idea for the next update, and an interesting band.

It's easy to make politicians, I just can't really update the one in the save we're using I think. Next time I'd like to have some non-American characters, like Putin, Merkel, and Rob Ford.
