  1. Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    I suppose she could just turn them all into fillies and hide them away.

  2. Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    Honest question. When were we told that and how does that imply it’s a good thing. Just seems like it’s more likely to attract Worms. And Velvet hijacking’s Harmony seems just as likely as everything turning more like Canon MLP.

  3. Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    I mean the Master’s interpretation seems much more likely, but it’s possible. I just push back against the idea it’s all sunshine and happiness. It could be Velvet becoming an Alicorn and killing the others to keep it hiddenn.

  4. Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    It’s all potentially a scale though. A Velvet ascending as perhaps the first new hour with a few friendly Names and Alicorns following is more hopeful than one who ascends with no one behind her. Of course there’s always the chance we’re all wrong, but I’m mostly just speculating.

  5. Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    I know, I was more arguing against the idea that the Harmony ending is the most inherently “good” ending. I don’t know for sure, but all the ending feel like scale of Velvet’s in fluency for good or bad. The Wolf is just turn out the lights. The Moon seems to be reinstate the old order for good...

  6. Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    Fair enough, I don’t remember for sure, though I don’t know that it doesn’t amount to something similar. It may not make it “weaker” but it also doesn’t necessarily mean it’s better. I think it’s more about forming a connection with Harmony versus the ending being Harmonious. We don’t know for...

  7. Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    From what I remember Ourladyofwires saying, I don’t think it’s as positive as you think it is. It sounded more like a dimming of the lights. Right now Harmony shines brightly attracting the Worms. Velvet needs to find a way to make it stop doing that, whether it’s getting Harmony to do less or...

  8. Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    I agree with spiderhellion and in fairness the votes to social Filthy Rich haven’t gained a lot of traction. I get how it seems like people are arguing over minor details, but in fairness this turn is relatively tame. There’s no major immediate threats as of yet, there’s a list of stuff that...

  9. Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    Then I think you’ll be disappointed by what you get out of it. You personally might not be cause I think I remember you being also interested in befriending the pony’s of Ponyville in general, but I think those just focused on the bits will be.

  10. Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    And even with that it likely would have taken us much longer to reach income where we are now which is why easy expeditions and free Mansus ones could have filled some of those gaps. I stand by my point you are overestimating our potential return on investment for time spent. If we had acted on...

  11. Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    Some of that is self inflicted. We have tendency to throw bits at the problem to mitigate risk. Besides what do you actually think you'll get out of this. Most of what I've seen boils down to 1. Social Filthy Rich 2. ??? 3. Profit I’m not trying to be dismissive, but I think people are...

  12. Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    This is what I’m talking about though. I do understand, but between Velvet’s base salary and Rarity’s work we have a solid base. We would spend less on the other options if we had more resources to start with. Considering the amount of effort needed to set up income streams we’re better off...

  13. Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    Definitely a risk, but I will say with a lot of the plans, we should still have most, if not all our re rolls. Mine with Sacrament is a little riskier, but I think worth the shot and gives us an influence going in. The rolls last time we went in were a bit of everything so any could help.

  14. Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    You’re making a lot of assumptions about how easy it’ll be with Filthy Rich. He’s a friend, not a close friend which means he’s still 2 steps from being a Confidant/minion. Even with the leash we’re potentially talking about multiple actions. I doubt anyone is willing to vote for the moth...

    One thing I noticed about the Betterer Biedde plan is it creates a SH1 reagent. I assume it’s for Jade to use in the scrying ritual, but it doesn’t actually assign it to her.

    I think my main concern with summoning Biedde this turn is it sets his timer to keep summoned on the same turn as Axe, which gives us less wiggle room in preventing any Name from being desummoned. Now his overall usefulness counteracts some of that, but it could be minimized by summoning a Mare...

  18. Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    Sure, but we have a decent base right now. I’m less interested in focusing on spending time with other characters to come up with money making ventures. I’d rather focus on expeditions and exploring the Mansus to get resources like we are this turn. We’ve not been willing to break the law for...

  19. Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    I mean we don’t necessarily need more bits, so much as more resources. The bits help for direct costs, but having more reagents/artifacts, better followers, and a higher lore score helps reduce our dependency on paying to win. If I remember right we’ve generally had a higher bit level because of...

  20. Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    For me it’s because while there’s no guarantee it ends that way, it is at least starting as the first quiet turn we’ve had in a while. It’s a chance to cover our bases. Despite all of Velvet’s strengths we keep running into issues because of her weaknesses. Whether it’s threats like the Master...
