Swamp Rimworld 2021: New Poll

rass · Post by **rass** » Sun Aug 29, 2021 6:23 am

In some cultures the cassowary wattle will be dried, ground and snorted to provide extra-sensory inspiration to mystics and artists.

New poll up to select the biome for our next colony. After that we'll vote on a pet.

Still taking suggestions for the different facets of our ideology as shown on the previous page.

I want to give us more of a chance. Temperate forest. Also ups possibilities of hilarious encounters w/ animals.

Temperate all the way. Ideologue is hard enough depending on the memes (that is what each part of your ideologue is called). I would suggest not doing tree lovers or vegetarians (very difficult to not starve or build shit in the beginning).

Any idea what story teller? I would suggest Phoebe or Randy. And edit the Rituals to bring in additional people to join (although that increases sizes of raids).

I always use Randy since the randomness is sort of the point of what makes the game fun.

And yes, will do the new joiners as ritual rewards.

So here's how the ideology is shaping up. I'd recommend dropping the "high life" thing since having your colonists stoned all the time can make things difficult believe it or not. That can be an attribute of one of the other factions.

Still taking suggestions, especially on the festivals and relics.

Testing some of the mechanics for the Swamp ideology and this is something that can happen:

We need to make this into our village's motto somehow.

Like "Salma And a Llama" or some such.

Can we replace "Seal Fisting Day" with "Swampcrash Tournament" or anything else that's a little less... Joyce-ian?

mister d · Post by **mister d** » Tue Aug 31, 2021 10:04 am

Swampcrash? I don't think I even remember what that is but it sounds like a really fun game I'd love to play again soon.

P.D.X. · Post by **P.D.X.** » Tue Aug 31, 2021 10:15 am

Also I vote for fungus and insect meat as a +

Will do.

P.D.X. wrote: ↑Tue Aug 17, 2021 9:53 am Also we need to approve of skullspike.

To be clear, this is putting the skulls of our enemies on spikes as a warning to others, not walking around with spikes sticking out of our own heads.

I can turn on insect meat but to like fungus we have to be weird tunnel people and it changes a lot of the game mechanics.

Johnny Carwash · Post by **Johnny Carwash** » Tue Aug 31, 2021 10:47 am

Looks like Temperate Forest is running away with the vote, so I'll put a poll up tomorrow for the pet.

Also every time I say the same thing about Ice Sheet, and one person votes for it just to be a dick (I'm guessing AB or mister d).

I'm still mad from previous raids that fucked our previous worlds. Time to stop being nice.

Johnny Carwash · Post by **Johnny Carwash** » Thu Sep 02, 2021 7:53 am

Temperate Forest pulled away with the vote and will be the location of our next colony.

New poll up for the colony pet. All of those on the list can be trained to attack people with the exception of the cassowary (which I included for Sabo).

Can we get a pet bee and name it Bee Arthur

EnochRoot · Post by **EnochRoot** » Thu Sep 02, 2021 8:36 am

The Tapir should be our pet. He brings the level of bravado the colony will need to survive in these modest, temperate climates.

Still looking for one more relic and one more festival.

Currently have as relics:

The Front Page
The Glass in Jerloma's Foot

And as festivals:

The Airing of the Grievances
Swampcrash

Pruitt · Post by **Pruitt** » Thu Sep 02, 2021 11:41 am

What about a beer fest?

really like Front page of Sportsfrog.com
A certain speedskater's mom's lawsuit (won't mention it because she may have an alert)

fesitvals
The remembrance of when the swamp had a gamblin' problem

Perhaps a festival called "The Cabbage Soup Memorial".

Looks like red panda will edge out several others to be our colony pet, unless there's a last minute swing of the vote.

Still taking suggestions on relics/festivals.

Also, the world map is generated by a random "seed" corresponding to a word, so ideas for that word are welcome as well.
