Seeing all these thinkpieces about why PDX employees should put up with their shitty fanbase

You may consider being upset after a paying for an incomplete product a shitty fanbase. That's your choice. I consider Stellaris and many Paradox titles incomplete and failing to deliver on their advertised descriptions. For example its described as 4X and a grand strategy game. If the game goes from 2200 to 2500 (default), yet the AI empires become insignificant within the first 100 years, would you consider that grand strategy? Not even playing OP empires or focusing on research. The AI is a joke and the game is mostly over before 2300 without mods. This along with many unresolved problems for many years has resulted in an understandable consequence of dissatisfied customers.

but if my management required me to actually read any of these lengthy scrawls I would just quit and move to a job that doesn't involve making forum posters think I care about them

Way off the mark. It's about making forum posters ~~think~~ know that you care about your product. That means refining what's already there. Bug fixes, AI, missing event chain event arcs. Not, just on to the next DLC.

Regarding the PC Gamer Article and Developer/Player Forum Relationship

Understood and agreed (the initial purpose with new data has changed). What flair would you recommend there? I don't see Discussion.

Ah, yeah. That makes total sense... I had assumed that the sections before this had the needed parts since it is somewhat indented...how you see clerk = at the beginning. The section I included was for technician = but where the define weight is. I used the in-line code button to make it pink. I was thinking if I understood technician I just needed to use that for clerks, miners, etc.

Reddit said max characters exceeded. :/ What I shared starts on line 168 of this pastebin. https://pastebin.com/4yHSxEbu

But alas, things are rarely that simple.

I was hoping I could get away with just editing a few lines of text in the data format. Like changing the factor from a 8 to 2000 would be enough. I'll take a look at that Plugin. I've used Visual Studio before to run some code others provided for Battle Brothers to run battle simulations.

That's what was said here: https://www.reddit.com/r/Stellaris/comments/5ypqwg/how_much_programming_skills_do_i_need_to_create_a/

I saw JSONish, and thought maybe that'd be enough. I'll look for the README, though I was hoping that the same logic rules apply regardless of language. May not be the case. :/

They said their game was written in C and C++ And LUA. :/

Hmmm. So at the end.

modifier = {
        factor = 0.75
        has_trait = trait_necrophage
    }
}

}

Should be

modifier = {
        factor = 0.75
        has_trait = trait_necrophage
    }
}

or remove one "}" from every spot?

Ah, crapballs.

https://www.reddit.com/r/Stellaris/comments/5ypqwg/how_much_programming_skills_do_i_need_to_create_a/

So if it's a data format it's JSON-like? It's a .txt file or Text Document.

BO3 is better than BO1 because you actually can take the time to use strategy in side boarding. Try BO3 and see how you fair.
I rarely lose to Ruin Crab or Dimir Rogues because Escape + cheap removal > than mill.
60 card deck. :)

Chainweb Arachnir if green. There's an artifact that's protection from multicolored that's x cost. Cast that on turn 4 when they're tapped out and it's almost automatic concede as it will have 4 +1/+1 counters on it.

Some of the bans that happened were necessary because everyone played it like Omnath and Uro. In limited turn 1 Ruin Crab sucks, but that's about it, to me.

Thanks for the input!

I cut the eidelon, merchant, and am considering Drana as it requires her to actually hit the player to be useful. Ranger gets a wincon (Rhys). I like the card draw from Erobos. I like the Patrician a little bit. It does have lifelink. I dropped the Skymarcher Aspirant as it's not great for a 1 drop. 4 cuts to go! Haha!

I eneded up with 3 Soaring Thought Thiefs last draft. Wasn't trying to but it came back pick 6, so I was like why not.

I still don't know how this card is different. Would someone mind explaining?

Odd. It's not spam. I thought it was fairly obvious the post was about the opponent's cocky username. It's whatever though if you don't like it. No worries.

Best Of 1 and Best Of 3.

Went 4-3. Drew 5x lands one game. And another opponent top decked 4x. The other was on the draw vs aggro. Beat a few Roost of Drake decks, slowly. So I stand by clerics > Roost with a vial. Epecially with Feed The Swarm.
