the rare times I get purple first are the best

yeah totally fair, I think what you described is what makes the purples frustrating for everyone, we all just have different lines for what's acceptable and what's ridiculous haha. I definitely would have put Hockey Stick on there instead of Can Opener, but that might be the Canadian in me lol

yeah they're pretty sweet if you do get them, I'll agree. What examples would you pick for the category today if you had to? (Not saying you're wrong, just curious because I didn't necessarily think of them as bad examples)

"words that rhyme with president surnames" the other day had me doing backflips (derogatory)

It feels like a 7/10 on the "written to be intentionally enraging" scale

It was great, very cool to start with the emotional pull and then reveal the first big "plot" beat at the end. Loving what seems like (to me) will be a focus on the worms and possibly having some of the lingering questions around the Hive answered

you suck Ian, there's nothing to gain by entertaining the rhetoric of fascists and almost literally everything to lose

have you played Disco Elysium? I've recently become re-obsessed with it and it gives me the same desire. It's so good

Spain's opening narrative event. Obviously we're taking culture, gotta expand!
comment in response to
post
We are now Spain! None of the choices synergized all that well with Catherine, so we're going to try to use Spain's Expansionist abilities to find more Tundra to settle in

The End of Antiquity! The plague subsides and the Greek people wonder what is next for them and their civilization.

The plague gets even worse. Our settlements seem to have been spared the worst of it, but there could definitely be more to come

The plague gets worse! Hope Trung Trac and Xerxes are doing okay with the plague. We're not engaged in any wars, so reduced healing shouldn't be a problem

The people get unruly, leading to taxes on wine, Knosos gets the plague and Aristotle is born (although he'll have to wait for an Academy to be built before his knowledge can bear fruit)

Another wonder complete in Athenai, this time it's the Colossus!

Our first crisis! Heavy rains bring strange plants, which bring rats, mice and illness! It's going to cost us some money to weather it, but on the bright side, we'll make some important discoveries along the way

In Athenai, construction has been completed on the Weiyang Palace!

The war has ended. With heavy losses on the Mauryan side and none on the Greek side, I think we can call this one a win!

Far to the north of Thebai on a picturesque lake (with a Navigable River that runs out to the sea!), the town of Chalkis is founded!

As Greece expands, its historians write about how it expanded. As a result, Catherine is inspired to strengthen Greece's existing alliances

Another busy turn, where the tactics of war are debated, a bountiful harvest occurs and our first Logios (literally Plato) is born!

yeah I'm really taking my time because there's so much to learn and adjust to, but I'm loving it. congrats on your win!

A playwright shocks the populace and Trung Trac declares war, all on the same turn! We support the arts in Greece, but that's too much Happiness to turn down. Trung Trac is upset that we denounced her military along our borders
