Vote: 1E. It seemed like Da wanted something from that lady, maybe if you gave her a nail she would give it to you. It sounded like she wanted more money. 2B. You offer to talk to people for her! Your sister seems nervous and maybe you can help by asking herbalists or travelling merchants about fantastic things to learn and do out there in the world! 3: C. You explore the markets where there's always someone new. You try and find interesting people like merchants or travellers. D. You sneak out of town into the hills north of town. You don't go far, but you love dust-free air and it's much quieter H. You always have fun playing with Kel, you ask him to join you on your adventures this month.

Vote: C. Look around a little bit more and see if you can find anything, such as tea herbs or flowers or some such before heading back. If you’ve judged the time correctly you’ll just make it home in time. E. Intrigued! You wonder what other animals are around here. You wonder if they taste good. Maybe you could find some wild animals and make stew from them some day

Vote: C. Promise you’ll never bring home any more herbs. You really enjoyed getting away though, so you want to keep ranging well past the city walls and finding things. You just won’t bring them back! Simple! B. You’re happy overall with how Jeffrey spends his time, but don’t want to timeskip, you want to live out the individual time and are in no rush to reach Duty. What's the rush? Let's enjoy this story.

busb posted:1. Should you buy the permit? "Hey Mister, how about you give me the permit now, and I give you the money I make every month selling the kills, plus, I give you the best kill of the week, until I make up all 12 coppers?" "Hey Mister, why is everyone so obsessed with money around here anyways?" "Hey Mister, What's going to happen to all those farmers that lost their farms?" "Hey Mister, are you going to do something about them brigands?" "Hey Mister, what's a quota?"

She reaches inside your tunic and pins it inside your breast. Whelp. That's Mom, deader than a doornail then. Vote: B. You want to do as much as you can to help out financially. Our family doesn't need us getting into trouble with reckless heroics right now.

busb posted:Vote 1 - The great outdoors Vote: A. You show her your sling and ask for tips! D. You walk on in silence, but try and contact the Ruby somehow (what do you try?) Think really hard into our chest scar tissue / metal sub-dermal implant for help; our family is about to collapse, if He wants us to help in the future, we need His help in the present E. You ask her if she knows anyone you should speak to in Vise, or anything to watch out for F. You think you may have disappointed her earlier, maybe you spend some time talking about helping her or how you can help the family’s fortunes in the future? busb posted:Vote 2 - Loot your lot G. You happily agree. Your mother knows what is customary and will deal with it. You’ll probably end up giving them about 1 knuckle each. Maybe we can make a deal with the farmer for a loan? Ia. Spend a day trying to find and follow the pack mule’s tracks. Your mother isn’t a hunter or tracker though, and the trail is days old. Still, you might get lucky? - Spend 2 days looking!

I'm happy to skip forward to the next cycle and phase in Jeffrey's life at this stage and if people are bored with the slow pace. You keep asking, and honestly, I for one really like the slow and measured progression. Unless you're in a hurry to skip through the rest of 'character creation'?

busb posted:. . . but like all writers i crave feedback and am looking at how to improve and it's a way of seeing if pacing is an issue for some people. No worries! Your world building is awesome, really digging' this proto-psuedo caste and religious fundamentalism dictatorial feudal setting (as a story, would be a horrible way to live). Which is why I'm happy to take a 'slow burn' approach to Chapter 0: Character Creation. Anytime you'd like some feedback, just let us know!

You think about all the things your family has done for you. You are thankful for their love and support.

Natural 20 posted:gently caress it, we're going full economist. I want to be told about regressions and I want to be told about them now. Soup to nuts, I'm 100% certain that these Vise Quantologists are 'doin' it wrong'. Correlation does not equate causation, and running 'equations' in the hundreds of variables range sounds exactly like regression analysis, which is pointless when trying to forecast future 'unknown' events. You can't hand crank out the sheer numbers involved in predicting things like the weather, and mathematical modeling actually uses very few variables, its just recalculated a billion billion times over a finite grid space.
