Hey Khell, my best friend and ally. How about we do a 1:1 commodity trade this round? In honour of our cease fire and all.

I won't have any commodities as I gave my Trade Agreement PN to the Mentak, I'm afraid.

Ah yes, the Mentak. The race that refuses to research the racial technology I want. It is shameful.

Hey now, that was your suggestion, and - I found - a mitigating gesture following what happened earlier in the round.

Do pds and space docks count toward this public agenda?


Yes

Given IH's Rider play, going to wait about another ~8-10 hours before checking for all votes, so everyone has a chance to react and re-negotiate/re-vote.

I'm not changing my position on the Wormhole vote - if Morgoth gets a tech, that's just the same as those of us who have ships on wormholes, so woopedy-do I guess.

I'd rather not give IH a free Space Dock, but them's the breaks.

So as it stands, I think we've got Tapper, myself, Gnaw, Khell all voting FOR the wormhole agenda?

Where do people stand on the Economic Initiative one?

Wait - IH has 3 space docks already built, that means he's out of Space Dock tokens, right? Doesn't that mean he can't build another one anyway?

Who's left that may change their mind? I think everyone except Twelve possibly will have seen the rider.

Huh, I had not realised that we had a limit on the number of each unit we could build but that makes total sense.

So yes I can't build another space dock. I guess I can't move it either?

I guess the rider is played now unless I can discard it instead of my regular discard Drek?

Chalk it up to the learning experience.

Yeah, it says somewhere in the rules that the only pieces you can have more of than what you have on your card are Infantry, and maybe Fighters?

Tatts is very AGAINST. He’d lose his flagship.

Blend - 6 votes
Khell - 12 votes
Morgoth - 11 votes
IH - 11 votes
Tapper - 12 votes
Tatts - 7 votes
Twelve - 17 votes (!)
Gnaw - 11 votes
Nico - 3 votes


-----

If myself, Gnaw and Tapper throw all our votes at FOR the wormhole agenda, that makes 6+12+11 = 29 votes
IH can't vote on it, so that leaves...
12+11+7+17+3 = 50 votes that could go otherwise...

So, Khell, Morgoth, Tatts, Twelve, Nico - what are your plans?

We do this every round...Morgoth can't vote!!!

And if he'd just let me take Arinam-Meer, I'd have more votes than Twelve, sigh.

Oh shit, yeah, I keep forgetting about Morgoth.

Well, that means that there is potential for 39 votes AGAINST then.

I know Tapper said he's holding one vote back so he has a tech pre-requisite, so we'd actually have 28 votes FOR on Wormhole.

I haven't made any deals for my Production Biomes next round as of yet. I'd be willing to buy some votes FOR the wormhole agenda.
