Hey Egan_BW. I see you added tokens for Gyromitra rescuers. While it is only fair they get 5 as well because Snapdragon got 5, did pw say they get 5? Because I have only seen him say 2 tokens.

RC asked him, and didn't get an answer either way. I would ask him myself, but he's not been on IRC and I'm greedy enough not to go out of my way to steal tokens from myself.

Can someone explain the category of 'Game' to me? It seems a little too all-encompassing (or ill-defined) to be meaningful, though I think I almost grok the idea behind it.

Furthermore, does the HMRC Pantheon belong to 'Background'? Sure, as cultural thing of the past, it is part of the background; but as a living faith of modern convicts, it feels more to the forefront of the story as player-driven thing - like, for example, Jim&Feyri's Medieval Tournament (which totally deserves a page of its own :P) or Notable Events. Maybe both 'Background' and some other category?

So..  PW says you get 2, you think you should have gotten 5, so you give yourself five.

Categories are little iffy currently. They need to be reworked, especially "Game" and "Background". Those two are kind of dump-categories where everything else not in armory, characters or missions go.

Personally I think they too deserve same payment as Snapdragon rescuers which is why I haven't done anything about it. But on the other hand 5 tokens is baseline mission payment again, and rescuers didn't get full level up, then Snapdragon rescue team shouldn't get 5 tokens but rather two like Gyromitra rescue team did. But Snapdragon set precedent for getting out earlier.

Plus, "Qui tacet consentit". To expand on that, he most likely had many chances to voice any concerns he had, unless he somehow missed all of the great many posts that referred to the matter. Therefore, if someone has a chance to object to something and doesn't, it's assumed they give at least grudging consent.

And about categories, we could start by editing the category pages and putting a description of what's supposed to be there.

So, that's three data points that agree with each other, then.  Two partial level ups, one partial payment.  There is one disagreement.  The disagreement is decided to be correct, and used to justify a wiki maintainer giving additional payment to his character.

Secondly, PW is busy with the mission changeover, and under these circumstances, I don't think him not saying something about what is at best, a tertiary priority for him can justify overriding what he has already said about the matter.

Not his character. Everyone with him.
I don't exactly agree with the course of action he chose, I would had kept posting actions until piecewise responded or stop posting actions and accept unfair payment because piecewise looked busy.
But I also won't take action that would result in essentially punishing the rescue team because their players did more and risked more for the mission.
And I feel that piecewise would agree with the fact they did more.
So unless he indicates he wants another solution to this  problem, there's not much I can do about it. It's a moral conflict where every choice has a good chance of being wrong, so the best choice is to do nothing and have everyone remain content with the current situation which doesn't seem to be bothering anyone.

Alright, give them 5. I'd actually prefer to just give the other team 2 instead, but their money is probably already spent.

Boom. That's how long it takes.

So, I thought I should ask here since this is the wiki thread, but can someone- assuming my new character is alright stat-wise, that is- make a new wiki page for my new character?

Please people, your enthusiasm is appreciated, but try not to edit the wiki at the same time and create multiple pages when only one is needed:
http://einsteinianroulette.wikia.com/wiki/Cthunkan
http://einsteinianroulette.wikia.com/wiki/Gestalt
EDIT: And also, I think Charisma is a physical stat? Since it's about how "cool" you are? You might want to ask piecewise about which of those are physical.
EDITEDIT: @Kriellya: Also, any idea about how you are planning to make the template work?

Charisma is a mental stat, I think, since it's also about knowing how to act and convince people of things. It's both Charisma and Speech from the old system.
