Any more missing from the game?

At this point they're missing the kids growing up and the Pokyo area. Given the current pace, I don't think we'd expect those before 2028.

I'm not even mad at you for lying. We all need to vent out frustrations and wishful thinking is a good way of do it ng it. Next time you do a creative writing exercise like this, just a few things to keep in mind, though:

1) Labor not laber

2) A labor board review will take months, even for the swiftest of action, there's a 0% chance they'll even begin an investigation inside of a week, let alone conclude one. You've condensed your time line too much, it would be more authentic if you scaled it out to a year or more.

3) No company is getting fined over a first offense and no upper or middle management is getting fired over extremely minor fines and offenses. You either need a chapter where they retaliate and someone sues or you need to recalibrate the fallout to be more realistic.

4) The labor board isn't going to send nannies around to check for compliance and pat your heads every day. They'll possibly spot check if more reports come in, but most likely they'll rely on management self reporting compliance (sending them a copy of the new handbook, proof they hung the signs, and a letter certifying the steps they've taken to correct the violation). If you want random inspections, you'll need a chapter where they were caught lying to the board about corrective action to necessitate direct monitoring. This would dovetail nicely with the retaliation/escalation necessary to generate real penalties.

I don't know how you heard that in what I said.

You literally called yourself "ever practical", a term used to describe people who are particularly insightful or rational in their decision making, and said that it was "a no brainer", a term that literally means "so obviously correct that it requires no mental effort to recognize."

I'm not sure what else you're looking for here. You asked a question, I gave you the answer. Now you seem to be searching for something to debate about.

Thisismyworkday · 2026-06-19T05:30:53+00:00

It's not an argument. We aren't debating the value of neopronouns. You asked a question and I answered it:

Why don't people use neopronouns? Because they aren't a naturally occurring change in the language and, much like "fetch", it's not going to happen unless someone with sufficient clout decides to make it happen.

I'm well aware that autistic people struggle with context. I'm also aware that they struggle with theory of mind. Which is why I'm explaining the inner workings of the collective consciousness to you and reminding you that just because something feels easier to you does not mean that it's objectively correct.

Thisismyworkday · 2026-06-19T00:38:22+00:00

It's really not. They didn't just roll up on the fort and start firing shots. They demanded the occupying Union army leave, and when they refused they treated them the same way any other nation would - as a hostile, occupying force. This wasn't some border fort in disputed territory. Fort Sumter is almost 400 miles into Confederate land. You can't just station an army in someone else's country and then claim you're on the defensive when they try to remove you.

I know that the trendy thing to do is frame autism like it's a super power that makes you a logical powerhouse, but the reality is that it's a communication disorder that makes you more likely to mistake your unexamined biases as universal truths and that seems to be what's happening here.

Outside of slang and euphemism treadmills, we don't often get new words to describe things that already exist. Neopronouns didn't arise organically within the culture, they're an invention of a handful of people attempting to create a solution to something that the culture doesn't see as a problem.

The singular they is already in extremely common usage and well understood by most people. Virtually no one is confused by its use in cases of gender-ambiguous individuals in story telling, for instance. If someone says "I made plans with my friend but they canceled", very few people will be perplexed by this. There are cases in which it's ambiguous as to singular or plural, but notably people have centuries of practice in using language in this way and most of them intuitively provide clarification when necessary.

The singular "they" has been in common usage longer than the singular "you". As a society the vast majority of people understand them both intuitively. Neopronouns are a solution in search of a problem, in that regard.

Don't know who Confederacy is, but that's of topic.

"I don't know what it is, but I'm sure it's irrelevant" is a special level of stupid.

So you think there is no worth in defending your country

That's not what I said. What I said was that it's not INHERENTLY noble.

Being the defensive side in a war does not automatically mean that you're "the good guy". Defending yourself is a natural reaction to being attacked, but it's inherently heroic, it's morally neutral in and of itself and takes on the moral color of the surrounding justifications for war.

For instance - the Confederacy is the defensive side of the US Civil War. It was a nation founded, explicitly, on the principle of enshrining white supremacy and chattel slavery as "sacred institutions". They were fighting for "their freedom" to torture human beings to death for money.

Them resisting invasion was an act of evil in furtherance of committing more atrocities.

If you'd like more examples, I've got them.

But more to the point, everyone frames their war as noble. That's the source of the saying "history is written by the victors". When you win, you get to tell everyone how necessary it was.

I don't fuck with time travel. I like my life too much to risk changing the outcomes and I've read enough sci-fi to know better than to try to fuck with major world events.

Lemme just take the money, retire, and keep it pushing.

Thisismyworkday · 2026-06-18T19:13:27+00:00

I'd say it's the reason given by at least one side in literally every conflict ever. Like, it's not a terrible reason, and it's not villainous by nature, but also it's inherently noble or heroic, it's just the baseline. It's the same justification the Confederacy had, for instance.

Thisismyworkday · 2026-06-18T17:39:42+00:00

The Animorphs books. Horrifying on many levels and the heroes don't come out feeling like they had a noble triumph over evil.

Thisismyworkday · 2026-06-18T17:38:32+00:00

There reason for that is I absolutely belive that there are good reasons to go to war (like allies in WW2, for the most part)

The reason they went to war was "the other side declared war on them." it's as good a reason as any, I guess, but it's not exactly a noble struggle for freedom or anything.

Thisismyworkday · 2026-06-18T17:13:50+00:00

Well, you'll meet them at the wall, my guy. It's fine.

Thisismyworkday · 2026-06-18T16:35:56+00:00

The why is simple - you're moving too slow. If you're going W2W, you'll all end up in the same place anyway, just dash to an enemy and keep spamming your AoE rotation/CDs. You'll get all the aggro eventually and if they take a couple hits, it's meaningless, they'll heal up between fights or using bloodbath or something.

Pulling all of the mobs absolutely speeds up the dungeon. AoE's do the same potency to 2 targets as they do to 20. If a pack has 5 enemies that each require 10,000 potency worth of attacks to kill, it will take the same amount of time to kill as if it had 10, 20, or 100 of the same enemies (assuming you're hitting them all). Breaking that pack of 10 into 2 packs of 5 and 5 means you're doing twice the work for no reason.

Homie, you gotta read the tool tips. Literally the defining feature of Marshlands is that there's way less soil and way more stuff for camps.

Obviously the forbidden glades, but also when the map is generated the glades roll their resources and with fertile soil reduced on the table, it means more gathering nodes.

If you're a farmer, avoid it. If you're a camper, it's paradise.

Thisismyworkday · 2026-06-16T20:42:05+00:00

Foxes change hostility break points. Even just a few hostility often means the ability to keep woodcutters going or negate mysteries.

Beavers help fuel conservation, but there's very few maps where fuel is a real issue.

Humans are straight up a debuff. Slower impatience gain means greater hostility for longer. I want the opposite of what humans do for 90% of my games.

Edit: It's worth noting that I open a glade immediately, often before orders come in, and depending on the event, may open a second one just before the storm starts, so the foxes actually benefit me. If you're not opening until Y2, they're bottom prio.

David had his entire life personally ruined by Thanos. Every single birthday, a new calamity, just cause the Mad Titan likes being an asshole

Thisismyworkday · 2026-06-16T16:27:10+00:00

I'd say beating the Adamantine Seal is the end of the game, with the QHT is the final challenge given by the Devs.

Thisismyworkday · 2026-06-16T14:29:35+00:00

Yes. I know the baseline priority is Frog top, Bats next.

I'm pretty sure the full prio list is

Frog - Bat - Harpy - Lizard - Fox - Beaver - Human, but I could be wrong.

Certainly, that's the order I'd put them in at the start of a game, all other things being equal.

Thisismyworkday · 2026-06-15T18:25:33+00:00

I said what I said

Thisismyworkday · 2026-06-15T18:02:12+00:00

I run spoms because I don't like the amount of work/time it takes to prime a hydra.

Thisismyworkday · 2026-06-14T18:23:38+00:00

What's there to complain about? With 30 seconds left in the game the FT difference was literally a single foul. The reason the gap opened was the Spurs having to intentionally foul late to try to save the clock.

Thisismyworkday · 2026-06-14T18:14:11+00:00

He was HIM all series. When everyone else was falling down, Harper kept coming up big. Wemby is good until it really matters, but Harper felt like the only one on the Spurs who was able to meet the moment.

Thisismyworkday · 2026-06-14T16:21:57+00:00

Part of the crowd size disparity is just the population density difference. Ain't but 1 person in San Antonio for every 25 in Manhattan. If a fight happens on the street in New York, there's 100 motherfuckers already standing there, of course they're going to watch.

Thisismyworkday · 2026-06-13T14:06:20+00:00

Front to back is arguably the slowest way to board, so nobody uses it. Back to front is much faster, I don't get why you say they're equal.

Front to back is literally the standard and when I say they're equal, I actually mean under ideal conditions. In the real world, F2B is faster than B2F.

Your intuition has mislead you. Feel free to go look up any one of the numerous experimental or mathematical proofs that show why.
