Interesting banner ad, looks like- hoo boy, it's another Diogines CYOA. I wonder if it's going to be any less of a trainwreck than the last- oh no, it's set in the same hosed-up setting, RIP :cripes:



Well, good luck, readers. You'll need it.

Really? Came in just to poo poo up a thread?
If you don't like Diog's style, don't read, plenty of other things you can spend energy on.

You guys realize we're 5 years old, correct? Just making sure. F is hilarious to me in that context. Not complaining about wrong votes, just amused.

Nothing in F or H is outside the potential of a 5 year old. Hell, my 3yo has done this with his cousins more or less.

These childhood votes are more about laying out character traits and how we generally will act as a child, imo. Don't worry too much about how likely poo poo is to work.

The correct course of action in this new thread is to do whatever Enkidel didn't do.

In other words, the correct choice will always be to poo poo ourselves.

I'm guessing these kids are princes from the cities which attacked Tadmor previously, brought in as hostages to learn proper kinging from the only real king around.

Just because we're not king, doesn't mean we can't rebuild Tadmor. Spend a few years in Batiel learning architecture, come home, beat up some guys for money, use the money to fund rebuilding projects.

No. Not at all.

I'm not even the slightest bit interested in spending another three years building the Kavodel 2.0 only to have a tide of demons fade us to black.

Personal power is everything. If we were stronger the demons wouldn't have eaten us.

I want to find out about the world. Aren't you guys even a little curious about the Horse people? Or Seir? Or literally anything?

So we rebuild the donut, ok. Then what? What's our end goal?

The difference here is that Enkidel always had a limit to the amount of temporal power he was going to be allowed to have in Ur, and that's combined with his other boundaries. Being king of just Zepath and Kavodel, and never being allowed to engage with other cities? That would have been dull. Judah has the chance to become the king of one of Ur's more powerful cities, and freedom to wield the power and authority that comes with it far more decisively. Once we have a real kingdom going we can still have adventures, they'll just take the form of military campaigns against corrupt kings of the Donut and demons.

well if you thought kavodel was boring (there was a period where I was getting impatient with it for sure), it's actually dropping that for an adventure that got us to game over there. In addition to, you know, a bunch of poor decisions following that.

Remember how grandad broke the opposing army pretty much singlehandedly? And without him the city would have fallen? Imagine if he'd been beating up people a few days sprint away?

We will be granddad, or Tuydia. If we leave the city our enemies will crush it unless it's a very quick strike and return. We learnt this in Mad God, We learnt this from Tuydia, we will learn it again and again.

If we become the defender of a city we will be stapled to defending it. Why bother in the first place?

That's why uniting Ur is so important. The petty kings and their endless, pointless wars are weakening Ur immeasurably as time goes on. If we can stop this from happening, install loyal allies and governors in the other cities, and build a defensive network, Mankind will be able to mount the first real offense against demons since Labaras and Zepa. But you do raise a good point here, and effectively garrisoning Tadmor may be a problem.

Hmm. Do we have any cousins, ah, born around the same time we were?
