I like your style. +1.
My oracular senses tell me that if this action passes through, then this will be the exact moment the insanity penalty will roll over. +1.

Can we be sane for a moment and stop trying to game the system in stupid ways, and instead game the system in ways the system was intented to be exploited?

Thinking about this, with how encounters work (we see what we are up against before violence begins) and our very limited inventory and comparatively massive storage, it's pretty clear we are meant to amass a collection of specialty weaponry (elemental et al) and kit out to fight the enemy we're about to face.  We have a brief start of that (Ice spear haft, Polaris sword) but we need to continue with that.

HMR stands for Hazardous Materials Requisition, not Horrible Massive Ruination, though I can understand how one could get confused.

God help us if we have to agree on pizza toppings at some point. There will be no survivors.

Go ahead. You have the floor. Tell me how to game the system. Come on. Make my day. I know you have a genius plan just waiting there but of course you have to tell us our methods are wrong without giving an alternative because you are that superior. I’ll have you know I graduated top of my class in the Blorble Academy, and I’ve been involved in numerous secret shenanigans in DL4, and I have over 300 confirmed ruses. I am trained in deception warfare and I’m the top rigger in the entire Warrens. You are nothing to me but just another system to game. I will manuever the fuck out of you with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this DL, mark my words.

Aw come on. This is not a computer game. We have complete freedom and a mod not averse to occasional insanity and constant shenanigans. Doing this methodically is just boring. Now let's resume worsening the insanity penalty.

Just cause you can tell something is wrong doesn't mean you can make something better.

I have this terrible as hell desk, and I can tell that it's terrible, that doesn't mean I know how to improve it.

Talkin' ain't doin' crap, and I know that theres a better plan. I just don't know what it is.

Knowing Belgium, everyone will vote for themselves out of mistrust for anyone else, and some kind of weird direct democracy coalition will need to be formed from 11 million or so individuals.

...If we do this, would changing our accolade to Dwarven aid or hinder this action?

I'm thinking of temporarily using the new style just so that the Wisps are either debuffed by the jarring change or make them unable to recognize us so that we can start negotiations once more.

Why? I know it doesn't look right but I can't figure out what exactly is wrong with it. Regardless, it would have ruined the mega man joke, so I'm probably not gonna do it :P
