It's complete madness in the streets. A series of decoy signals have lead the C.O.U.R.I.E.R. Agents on a wild goosechase all day. Eventually they manage to track down the tower broadcasting the signal, but by the time they stop it the violence has spread across the Pacific Northwest. Scientists manage to determine that the signal was carrying a memetic virus that attacked the brain and quickly develop an antidote, but by the time the crisis is resolved, the damage has been done. W.A.S.T.E. has moved one step closer towards plunging the world into chaos. Challenge #1 has failed. The day continues. Seattle, 23:00 The streets are calm tonight. Most of the immediate damage from the earlier incident has been fixed, after the C.O.U.R.I.E.R. agents quickly deciphered the signal's location and destroyed the radio tower. There's no telling how bad it could have been without their timely intervention. For now, C.O.U.R.I.E.R. stands triumphant, although there's no telling when W.A.S.T.E. will make it's next move. Challenge #1 has passed! The day continues.

What interests me is that the point requirements are high enough to require maximum or near-maximum point expenditures from multiple specialists in that skill in order to have a shot at passing.

6 also isn't enough. If everyone contributed 6, we still wouldn't have passed it. Why did you volunteer?

Rarity posted:That's dumb, scum wouldn't want the challenge to succeed anyway. Not necessarily. Have you ever played The Resistance: Avalon? It can be advantageous to pass the first one as scum just so they have one or two people that end up trusted. Giving up some town advantages for town cred might be worth enough.

Giving up some town advantages for town cred might be worth enough. On the other hand you could make a case to skip the entire first check and see if town can simply fail it on their own to gauge what town might be packing. You could go either way with that one I think.

Rascyc posted:5 was just shy of being 1/4th of the total needed, I figured people who snap volunteered could contribute more than 5 (because I know what my highest point value is and I figured people immediately jumping would be on the upper end of the spectrum and could carry a bit). Firstly, 5 is nowhere near 1/4 of 27. Now you saying that you assumed people could contribute enough to make up for it doesn't vibe with this at all. Rascyc posted:Because that's what I had and 5 was pretty good judging by the rest of my scores. I figured it was worth volunteering and contributing that. If you had an 8/9, which is what you'd need to have to think you could get away with submitting 5, then you wouldn't think of 5 as 'pretty good'.

I decided to join because I wanted to be one of the four. I know I'm town and I knew I submitted what I submitted so if there was a failure id be able to at least have some view into the points and only have three different people to check out to see if I believe them.
