Mind-bogglingly popular game series that you follow from early on and cannot stop, waiting for new installment like a drooling addict.

Long-runner soap opera you're too invested into to just stop watching it.

A fun little comic strip in the daily newspaper that's been around forever.

3/6

Who said it's fun? I didn't for sure.

I'm just waiting here for it to die horribly already so it will stop showing on my Unread Posts list.

[Culise]

Idk been like that since this morning... havent been able to check on it on a pc yet.

Photobucket went pay-to-play: you now need to buy a premium account in order to embed your images on external sites.  If you host there like a lot of us did, I'm afraid you may need to find a new provider.  I may still be a mite bit annoyed by them.

B, as our soldiers are a touch busy right now. Plus, like Void notes, we may be able to swing a deal on the mine assay.

A They are unlikely to offer this again since this is the first time in the three SPAMKINGDOM games I've seen the Dwarves offer something like this. So let's not risk it.

I'm not sure about this one. I'm very sure we can give something other than money to the dwarves, although we can guard their roads fine enough, they might not give us this chance again.
I'm gonna say we risk it. B

[Criptfeind]

They have in fact offered something like this before, in the first game. It didn't turn out super well. People didn't like dwarves. Dwarves didn't like people. Dwarves constantly pushed for more privileges and anatomy within the realm and were in general a destabilizing influence for little to no gain.

And now they want us to pay for this generous offer AND we get to act as their body guards? Sorry, but no. A flat yearly tribute... That's an absolutely huge amount of money, it'll really stack up over time. dwarven knowledge seems good, but it's not worth literally infinite money.  Keep in mind that the thing that actually ended the first (and greatest) spam kingdom was that we ended up ending owing a bunch of people yearly tributes... After we lost a major war, sure, but I'm not sure why we'd sign into something that took a war to force us into before.

We can, as always, negotiate. But I think we're going to have to reject this one.

We are paying them tribute, but they said they want to hire us as guards, which means they are paying us too. It should even out.
And who knows? Maybe the dwarves are a bit more amicable nowadays.

"Hire as guards" sounds more like our troop points go over and never come back for no pay.

[Baffler]

B. We should at least know what they want in tribute before we decide whether or not to make a deal.

Suggestion: use Imgur, it may not last as long and may be full of Memes, but hey, its free!
Also, +1.

[Haspen]

You try to negotiate the deal.

5*

"Our Duke told us not to negotiate the terms, but if you insist, I believe he can be persuaded to forego the first year's tribute."

A) "Nah, let's just concentrate on the mining business."
B) "Alrighty, that sounds a bit more reasonable. We have a deal."

[Kashyyk]

Having our people learn the skills of the dwarves would be super nice, but Criptfeind makes several good points.

There are just too many downsides to this. A

[crazyabe]

B.
Dwarves are useful, and since we will be having them live among us they will likely send at least slight help if we are caught off guard while we are defending THEIR trade routes.

[Harry Baldman]

A

The yearly tribute in addition to military assistance makes this an impossibly shitty deal. And what's more, it's a permanent deal that they will be doing their utmost to screw us on as much as they can.
