Shasn Game Aquarius
Welcome to Shasn! You will be deciding The Future of Humanity. Or at least, you'll be trying to get elected to do so.
The players are, in randomized order:
the zoomies
Khaos
seathesee
Ashenai
There's a lore card. Let me give you what it says.
The Future of Humanity
Earth 2040
Immigration
As rising seas flood coastal areas, inland cities face a flood of climate refugees.
Unemployment
With AI in every industry, many skilled and unskilled human jobs become redundant.
We Are Cyborgs
The prevalence of gene editing, cloning, and implants raise new ethical questions.
Race to Space
Nations race to conquer Mars, as space becomes the final frontier for capitalism.
National Economies
Cryptocurrencies are the new norm, while MNCs become more valuable than nations.
Remote Control
Drones and nanobots transform industries, but their use in war is a bitter debate.
New Identities
Children seek suffrage while #IAmAlien activists redefine norms around human bodies.
~The future is a strange place indeed. Welcome to the future.~
Each player must choose starting currency before any vote cards are dealt.
the zoomies get 1 currency of any type (Funds, Clout, Media, or Trust)
Khaos gets 2 currency of any type or types
seathesee gets 3 currency of any types
Ashenai gets 4 currency of any types
the zoomies are first.

Re: Shasn Game Aquarius
Is it better if the players are different colors, or if the currency is different colors
Or both? In the physical game, the player colors are black, pink, purple, gold, and cyan

Re: Shasn Game Aquarius
Very good, and as you see, no one quite has the resources to buy any votes just yet. Oh let me know if you can't read that PNG, because I can make it a lot larger.
Our first question is for the_zoomies
Should large MNCs be granted sovereign status as countries?
Yes. That way they can focus on prosperity without worrying about local compliance.
No. Nations are based on heritage, not revenue. We can't have countries within our own.

Re: Shasn Game Aquarius
Game Action: Vote Object moved. Starting Position: Null. Ending Position: Yes
Re: Shasn Game Aquarius
Your yes answer earns you 2 Funds and 1 Media, and you now have one level of Capitalist.
This is still not quite enough to let you purchase any votes, unless you trade.
If you are done trading, you must pass the turn to Khaos.

Re: Shasn Game Aquarius
No trades thank you. I pass to Khaos.

Khaos:
Should data auctioneers have access to government data?
Yes. In our open-source world, anything that belongs to the government belongs to the people.
No. Putting up government secrets for sale will endanger our troops and national interests.

Re: Shasn Game Aquarius
No.
fuck google

Re: Shasn Game Aquarius
maybe put up the new question and answers in spoilers until i decide to not trade? will that make things run faster?
Re: Shasn Game Aquarius
Your no answer gives you 2 Clout, 1 Media, and you have one level of Supremo.
I figure what I would do to keep the game moving is simply give you a time limit for your turn. Is 24 hours too many?

Re: Shasn Game Aquarius
You currently do not have enough resources to purchase any votes. You could spend all your resources on a Conspiracy card, but that's definitely not recommended this early in the game!
Of course trade makes anything possible

Re: Shasn Game Aquarius
i assume no-one wants my (1) clout for their (1) funds. if anyone does, just say as much, otherwise, let's move to sea

Antitechnology militants could start a civil war. Should we send them to re-education camps?
Yes. Looks like their primitive brains need a software update.
No. Technology is good for business, but war is better.

I like the mix of dystopian questions and dystopian answers
Re: Shasn Game Aquarius
is it a good idea to allow trading at any time? just, in parallel with the rest of the game so we never need to stop for it? sheep for wood anyone?Doug wrote:I figure what I would do to keep the game moving is simply give you a time limit for your turn. Is 24 hours too many?
