2009 was a very positive year.

Talking about politics, I always thought LCS needs a real act title generator. So instead of "End Undue Union Influence", it'd say "H.R. 337: Job Creator* Rights Expansion Act of 20XX" or something like that. Or, when prisons go from C+ to C, "H.R. 314: Repeal the Prison Labor Act of (whenever prisons became C+)".

The Supreme Court would instead list "this case would [declare the Prison Labor Act unconstitutional]" or something similar.

I think the seduction skill could be looked at. Ive been trailing along a Deathsquad Officer for over two years, and since then the police regulation and death penalty laws have become C, so they don't even exist anymore.

Yeah, seduction is a little off in general. Regular people are incredibly easy to seduce, even Police Officers aren't that bad. But high level Conservatives? Forget it. I recently spent about 3 in-game months trying to get a CCS sleeper, had to go through about 12 different guys to finally get one with my 20 CHA and 17 seduction founder with 3+ business/science and a bit of religion, plus some of the common skills like driving and such that the CCS guys tend to have (so I get better rolls on the dates), all while spending money on every date. A large portion of the time, they would drop me on the first date. With 17 seduction. Some of these formulae really need some changing, maybe rebalancing like making it easier to seduce but it costs more money/takes more time.

You should also cross-train into persuasion and psych. Also, get your founder up to 1000 juice, and max out seduction.

Persuasion was at least 13, Psych probably 1-2 points. Was at... I think 500 juice. But still, the point is here that you can have ridiculously high seduction-related stats and still have a hell of a time seducing. I suppose it might make the game too easy if it wasn't as hard, but it's such a big grind as it is now...

Seduction is a great way to kidnap conservatives.

I think seducing high-level conservatives SHOULD be insanely difficult. It gives you a powerful sleeper with high heart and the ability to recruit more members. If you want semi-reliable results in a reasonable amount of time, you have to kidnap and brainwash. Or use a guitar squad. Nothing can stand before the power of ROCK.

Hey, just wanted to point to my own suggestions (I made a new thread, I actually wasn't aware of the suggestions being placed here)

It involves adding some improvements to the prison system, so it's a little more interactive.

Thanks for all the support to this little gem (Or horrible POS, depending), I'm glad I found out about it

I think I've found a bug, as one of my liberals cannot bring seduced people to dates. The seduction itself works, but only the leader gets to the date menu at the end of the day. Here's the save, in case it helps: http://www.sendspace.com/file/d1kcxt

Also, when I move wanted liberals away from a safehouse before a siege while leaving innocent liberals there, I get sieged "for finding a bug".

How do you move all of your items into one base?  I've done it twice accidentally but both times into the wrong place

e: It seems that exclamation mark moves everything to base 1 while hash key moves everything to base 3.  Can't find the key for base 2.

e2: Ah, it's ~.  Should have known.

Could someone help me out with a future DFBT bit? I was thinking of recording the LCS 'breaking into' my recording and commandeering it, but my voice isn't good for that.. Would anyone like to volunteer?
*Waves AA-12 Shotgun*
Speaking of which, are AA shotguns the new M249? The almost-unobtainable superweapon? 'Cause right now, my army of Child Laborers with ceramic armor and M249s can decimate anything. Maybe they need a nerf.
Which brings me to my next point: Fundraising is too easy. We need either taxes and tax exempt status, possibly including Conservatives doing what Real Life Liberals are doing right now (using the IRS to withhold tax exempt status from opposing groups), or an option at the start to nerf fundraising.

Kinda important bug on 4.07.2, you can't put up a business front.
