We have a three-way tie between I'll do it, I'll do it but I'd need to ask permission, and Affronted by the very notion. Next new or changed vote takes it.

quote:"Wonderful, wonderful!" Figs says. "That's the feudal spirit! I knew you had it in you! You won't regret this, Butler, not for a moment. Allow me to stow it with your luggage in the baggage car. It's the very least I can do. And you'll put it up on the wall right when you get there. Wonderful!" quote:At long last, with a deafening metallic screech and the interminable ringing of bells, the train comes to a halt at Brooks Crossing, a small village immediately before your own stop. Here, the train will load and offload packages; in twenty minutes, quite promptly, it will depart again. Here, passengers are encouraged to stretch their legs, enjoy the well-known La Bonbonnière et Château du Café, an adorable café known for its currant scones. quote:You enter Ye Olde Gifte Shoppe, eager to make your purchase of the peridot hairstick, already anticipating the joy it will bring Aunt Primrose, and the relief on Rory's face when he sees that you have managed to provide him with an acceptable gift for her this year.

Being Aggressive is likely to end in a smashed china shop, me thinks. Also, word will get back to Primrose, since I bet that he's going to her party too.

grab it - Colonels are too low-ranking to be really important but too high-ranking to fight well.

quote:Striking like a coiled cobra, if that is indeed the snake that coils and then strikes, you lunge for the hairstick. quote:They say that even people who chose not to exit the train at the station heard the crash and believed an electrical storm had begun. It does not strain credulity, as here at the epicenter, you found it positively deafening, a state of affairs only exacerbated by the screams of the salesclerk. quote:"All aboard!" comes a cry from across the station, and you are shaken from your thoughts. You look up at the station clock, which you now realize must be slow, as your train is beginning to depart! The strikethrough isn't showing up too clearly on my monitor, so just in case - I'm including the Col. Firesnuff option for completeness sake, but please note that it is greyed out and we can't actually select it. Also, for the curious, this is the choice where the demo version of the game ends.

Wait a minute... You get relationship boost if you try to fight over the hairpiece??

# ? Jan 23, 2018 21:25 |

I know it doesn't sound like it from the text, but yep, we got a relationship boost for trying to fight over the hairpiece. Can confirm from both my phone and the code. I think the intended takeaway is that he genuinely enjoyed our "invigorating" scrap.

I know of several Colonels from history and popular culture who would contradict this. Theodore Roosevelt comes to mind most easily, as does Frank Slade on the fictional front. Google ‘Colonel Badass’ for more examples. Firesnuff sounds like another one. Jump for the train!

We are tied between making a leap and having Figs open the door. Next new or changed vote takes it.

So, something weird just happened. The game updated today, and since the update said it was just for some typo fixes, I went ahead and downloaded it. I knew there were some bugs in the code, but it wasn't mentioned as a bugfix update. However, when I opened the game again, I found myself bumped back to the beginning of Chapter 2, with the same stats. So, just to try and ensure integrity, I went ahead and started over - I have a pretty good memory for what your guys' choices were, and I've copied the stat block enough that I know where Reg's stats should be at any given time, to ensure that I'm not zoning out and choosing wrong. I just made the choice about grabbing for the hairstick again, but it looks like the stat barrier for that was lowered since the last update I downloaded, because this time we actually managed to get away clean. I swear to you guys that I have checked and rechecked what's currently displaying on my phone as our stats (Bold 54%, Culture 25%, Intellect 37%, Persuade 42%, Skullduggery 19%, Soothing/Abrasive 34%/66%) and what's here in the thread, and they are identical - except for, now, our Suspicion, Renown, Readies, and Col. Firesnuff relationship stats, since we now qualified for a full instead of a partial success. What I'm saying here is that time and space rewrote themselves to give Reginald Butler a win. Allow me to take you back in time just a tick or so. quote:Striking like a coiled cobra, if that is indeed the snake that coils and then strikes, you lunge for the hairstick. quote:"All aboard!" comes a cry from across the station, and you are shaken from your thoughts. You look up at the station clock, which you now realize must be slow, as your train is beginning to depart! Notably, we can now choose to have Firesnuff open the door for us. As such, I'll leave the vote open for a few more hours in case anyone wants to change theirs'.
