Gah, don't negate my -1 dumbass Dx
Again, -1 * +1 = -1, which means that, by giving a +1 to your -1, Great also gave a -1 to the same thing you gave -1 to.
I love maths.

I HATE ALL OF YOU RIGHT NOW
Yessss. Your hatred nourishes me, completes me.

There's a thread for that.

I care about getting stuff done...
And aren't social experiments more effective when they aren't obstructed by the medium?

The entire point of the experiment is the medium getting obstructed. And I support the Anarchy setup. All the best parts of the game have been when they've been up against major challenge and overcome it through sweat tears and blood. I would type more but I don't want to derail, this should go over to the main thread.

Before FFS gets out the quality dial I would like to state for the record that I recall him saying that Cherish doesn't like Al that way and she just flirts to make him uncomfortable
+1, I remember this as well.
That's a relief then.  Also:
Hey, I almost forgot, we should probably Save before leaving.
.
Just had an idea.
Save at checkpoint. Ciro give hat to Cherish, restore at checkpoint. Cherish drinks water, refilling SP to new total. Save at checkpoint again. Cherish gives hat to Al. Repeat. Al gives hat to Goombess. Repeat. Goombess gives hat to Slog. Repeat. Hat then goes to whoever.
End result - everyone at 5SP above maximum.
Also, Check Slog's Rubric.

That's a cheesy abuse of game mechanics which will probably end badly for everyone involved.  I can't +1 this enough.
For the reasoning above, +1
+1 for abusing the game mechanics in logical rational ways.

-1 because this will take time and we need to leave right now.

I'm all for being prepared, but we need to go.

We should still have plenty of time after doing that, so long as we actually teleport to DL3 and don't spend ages fiddling about on DL2 looking for a way down that has most likely closed/moved.

It should take a single image, as per when we party-healed at the SP drinking fountain.

+1 and note This requires we take a side trip to DL2 before heading back into DL3, for access to save point. Depending on whether or not Save Point or fountain have moved, may require several trips between DL2 and Underside. Regardless, do this.

Only for a brief moment or three. The end result is far more desirable than going to DL3 unprepared. Once we get to DL3, we can then go straight for changing the key and going to the boss room.

Pardon the double post, but I need to get this anouncement out.
I was idly clicking my TWoOtA Tips bookmark, hoping to get some inspiration, when I found this:

I immediately checked my list of tips, and nope, it wasn't in there.
Someone (THE GM, FFS, WHO ELSE) has snuck some new ones in.
I will be attempting to find them and document them, too.
That is all for now.

Edit Somewhat unrelated google image link. That name seems familiar, although a bit malformed. A relative, perhaps?

Edit 2: A reminder - She says every star does... so no star doesn't. But she doesn't say anything about, if a star has a tertiary use. Not every star does, but some might. Everybody who hasn't yet, try to Third Shift.

Okay, I may have forgotten that the save point is on DL2

So on one hand... we apparently need to get to Cain right now because oh nooooo being late in a video game.

On the other hand, we've got LITERALLY hundreds of commands that don't directly help with that and could easily be done afterwards.

I think the crowd needs to find out what it wants.
