I am devastated that the Offer Vote won and thus ended Silky's slow Subversion of Biedde. She would have gotten so much Lore Diplomacy practice too!
Also damn it Axe, you better not have thrown us some random jaywalker or something; this is why I wanted us to be specific about what sort of...
Using Leash to Moth Sac was stated to be extremely cruel by the QM. I imagine it's only worse for someone who has the Leash filling up more of their psyche than most Leashed targets.
Wow that's evil.
Anyways, if Selene is going to drop a plan on us for how to deal with Celestia, then I would prioritize that over any Moth Sacrament. Mareinette could keep befriending Spoiled in the background as we seek a more lasting solution to our Celestial Doom Clock, and we get to not be...
I'll be real, I'd rather have Mareinette up Spoiled to Confidante and Velvet social Mayor Mare in such a case, simply to avoid the fact that Leash into Moth Sacrament is an "especially cruel" combination per Word of QM. And it really would just be Mareinette making a friend at that point and...

How could you think this was more narratively engaging when it means no competition between Biedde and Smiles over Silky?
Onto other matters, I've been pondering which four Names are Change Names and which four are Order Names. Smiles is Change and Biedde is Order, obviously, but the rest...
30 vs 20 (SH) + 12 (Intrigue) means Velvet is in fact better at finding things, but I was more thinking of Smiles vs Tapestry Ritual in terms of finding things. Since that's our go-to search tool for this plane of existence.
Amusing, though it is identical to the Mothy Way Forward Plan.
Now then, onto the debate between Out vs Offer. I have seen people say that summoning Smiles is too expensive in terms of AP and upkeep, but I will note that our total AP per turn stays the same regardless of our choice! If we take...

Alright, with some tabulations I have found that there are:
22 Votes for Stealing Bits, 10 for Not Stealing
19 for Leaving the Prisoner, 12 for Taking the Prisoner
18 for Taking the Map, 13 for Bureau Map, 2 for Destroying Map
17 for Killing the Flower, 15 for Capturing the Flower, and 3...

Here we can see that Maximum Name Hotel and Maximum Hostility are incredibly close, practically neck and neck. The loot plans are in a state of confusion, I need to count things to try and coordinate that mess.
So yeah, if you are voting for Smiles to save Steppes, this is QM confirmation it won't. Also huzzah for Selene, our best Summoner of all things violent! As @ses proved with math, my idea for summoning via Selene is the best idea. Only 105 Bits and 1 Selene AP for a 99.2% chance of success!
I struggle with how people are able to both think that the flower is too dangerous and that making an Enemy of a Name is not too dangerous. Seriously, Eclipse pokes it and what? Gets some non-Lantern Lore? Good! Mono-focusing is unhealthy! Get some Grail or Moth into those hooves before your...
If his contingencies take travel time to reach us then they'll be too slow to stop All-In. If the contingencies are rituals that have somehow been kept primed but unused then we break some Wrong Keys and proceed with All-In. It's not like he would have Names to drop on top of us, Neighnia is off...
Honestly the biggest thing that worries me is that Biedde is Edge and Moth, which to me screams stealth ambushes of critical assets, and we only have one big Lantern gal to spot any such murderers with three locales to defend (Jade's residence with the music ponies, Rarity's home, our home).
