Lots of things will be posted here*. However I will not be editing much if any; editing posts is where errors can sneak in. I will add new posts as things are done. Posts 3-5 are the initial tech draws for example.

*Translation: I'm not certain how this thread will work out and its use will evolve throughout the game. :blink:

Reminder: Actions/orders/etc must be at then end of the post, bolded, and include resources and upkeep.

Research Improved Hulls ($3, S0, M:3, upkeep 0)

You are encouraged to use your placeholders to keep track of this yourself. By placing that info in the turn updates à la mafia vote counts, we all benefit because all our eyes are looking and error rates should go down sharply. Since this is the only way I've come up with to keep track of that information accurately this is not a request.

Mistakes caught more than two full turns after the error was made will be resolved two ways:

Mistakes made by me will be resolved as fairly as I can.
Mistakes made by you due to not keeping accurate information on your own status will be resolved in favor of your fellow players. What do you mean oh ModGod? Glad you asked:
- If the mistake gained you something, you will lose it.
- If the mistake cost you something, it sticks. Period.
But what if somebody else saw it but didn't say anything about it until after it was discovered? Another good question that I'm glad you asked:
- If it comes to light that a player saw that another player made an error that was incorporated into the updates, then onto the board, and discovered after the two full turns grace period, the player who failed to inform their fellow players and the ever so Kindly* ModGod will be penalized an influence disc for the duration of the following round.

The alternative is we go back to CF's "post your actions in the placeholder on page 1". Nobody seemed to like that.
