Time for a fourth poll to decide which Oro we want~

[piecewise]

4-color theorem.

look at region 53. It's bordered by 4 different things. I would need at least 5 colors. I want a map that can kill people.

I'm not really complaining, it looks great. But could've been done more tastefully.

So are those biomes, territories, or what?

Territories.

If you just use as few as possible, it'll work.

But then it won't hurt your eyes and brain!

Time for a fourth poll to decide which Oro we want~

Yep

AND IT WILL BE AN ALMOST 50/50 TIE AGAIN BECAUSE FUCK ME

[Egan_BW]

Started a poll on IRC. Go here and type "#Vote Oro ER" or "#Vote Oro notER".

This is going to get increasingly granular, isn't it?
"So, do you want an Orobopolis with no connection to ER, a 21-symbol name cap, and 21 points to spend on stats or only 20?"

Yeah, region 53 might have multiple neighbors, but if you're only trying to differentiate between adjacent territories four is fine.  You can't have a territory adjacent to four territories which are all also adjacent to each other, so two of the neighboring territories can share a color and be visibly distinct because they don't share borders.

Also, I'm still feeling like there may be tampering with the polls.  Constant 50/50 split?  I remember when we made a poll to decide the assaultsuit's name, there was a constant four-way split.  Presumably, whoever did that is still around.

Lastly, thank you Egan.

Oooor people just don't change their minds, syv.

Could always just have people vote in the OOC to avoid abuse.  One username, one vote.

[Yoink]

Ahah! Ahah! My sleeper army of alt accounts is finally going to come in handy!

Speaking of preventing abuse, do you get a Fate bonus if you're a cripple? Because several people are being absolute cock wollops in an unfunny way.

Nah. We haven't even left the origional question yet. i mean, "ER lore, no er lore, whic hgame do you like?" Was the start of the question to begin with.

But would that work if you tried it across all of them? I feel like with so many small pieces and 4, 5 pieces touching each other all the time that eventually you're gonna hit a point where two pieces of the same color touch.

Or is this one of those interminable math things where they never will?

If you really think we have a voter fraud incident going on, we can find someplace more secure, but people could change IPs or use sock puppets

Nope. The only state that seems to grant a bonus is being Lars.

Fate only governs certain NPC actions. At least usually.

Have you tried praying to some of lars' gods? Prayers of mercy might be boring but prayers of murder? Those might be heard.

If I wasn't busy getting pizza, I'd do the sensible thing and hire some of the muggers to help coerce the other civvies through the portal.
