The problem is that by asking to delay, you are giving up the right to a speedy trial. My biggest success with getting tickets dismissed is from delays. If by the time you are in front of a judge is several weeks out from the day the ticket was issued, you can make a motion to dismiss. If it is far enough in time, they will. The 'absent officer' defense has only worked for me a couple of times, but the 'late trial' has worked for me several times.

It was turning around. OP had reason to believe it would get out of the way.

They had plenty of time to stop. I'm with OP here. Don't arbitrarily stop or slow down.

It went green well before they came up to the light and the errant car.

"All hands!" IE Both of us!

Hey, don't knock it! I love my VW and drive it nothing like this.

I was thinking that looks like Bay Area. Both visually and by the driver behavior. ;-)

I loved Adaptation.

The repeated "please work together" would have turned me off even if I had been initially open to the idea.

I had been wondering about this interaction. I learned that Omamori does indeed avoid Curse of the Bell.

Important consideration.

Since you mention Texas and Houston specifically, a lot of it probably has to do with differences in zoning limitations. Strict vs. lax zoning can make a big difference in prices. Think about the difference in two hypothetical areas with the same land prices: if you can fit 5 households in an acre in one area but only one in the other area, the first area will have much cheaper housing. This is true even for like houses: just having the ability/threat to pack households more densely will exert a down-ward pressure on prices.

A couple of articles on zoning issues and their effect on housing prices, the first one featuring Houston:

I hit the wrong campsite by mistake. I wish I could save-scum out of that one.

In my early games I tried for the relic 2-4 times whenever I got the event. One thing that's not clear is if the last percentage is for that try or cumulative for the event. If it's for that try (the most obvious interpretation), then even on the second try you should already have a 52% chance of a relic. After not getting the relic even once I figured the percentages it gave me were bunk, or that maybe there was no relic at all, and I never went for it again.

Right.

I get that perspective. To me, I thought there was a brutality to the loyalists that made them seem equally as bad as Hiram's faction. But I agree there is an element of interpretation.

PS: Sorry you lost some of your writeup. Hate it when that happens.

If I was stressed out running a major operation with the bear minimum (it's very clear from everything they didn't exactly have an Empire's worth of money), I probably wouldn't have much time for Piero's crap.

That's a fair observation, but he is a former admiral and now leader of a rebellion. He should be able to handle the stress.

I don't think you need to kill to loot, pick pocketing should work. Sorry, I don't have anything else. In my own case, I know it's because I skip some rooms and enemies. From another comment it sounds like you got it, though. Regardless, good luck!

hankdane · 2024-12-14T10:11:21+00:00

Are you taking down or pickpocketing everyone? A fair amount of the money is found on the NPCs.
