That may be worth keeping in mind when considering his suggestion that the player who currently has the most power should be the one to pay 2.
Trust me, I'm aware of this.

OK, here's my revised thoughts: if I can spare 1, I could also spare 2. But somebody has to give me a good reason why we need to stop Crawling Chaos getting this power first.

It's not necessarily that I don't want Crawling Chaos to get 5 power. East Africa, as it stands, is very vulnerable to a Dreams attack, and I'd rather not let Cthulhu have the power to steal yet another gate.

Eh, if he does, he gets captured right away.

Oh, that's true, I guess. Forgot about that. Hmm.

Well...you raise a good point. Sure, Nyarls, take the power.

You don't like it? You and periodical are welcome to contribute the 5 power between the two of you.

Heh, nah. MrChris can go for it. I mainly just realized I've been missing opportunities to post Zoidberg gifs.

Not necessarily; I could always Devolve the Cultist into a Deep Spawn to deprive Black Goat of the gate, then summon a Cultist there later.

Well, it's been 22.5 hours at this point, and periodical hasn't weighed in but doesn't have enough power to lose 5 alone, so I'm calling it. Crawling Chaos gets 5 power, and play moves to Windwalker.

Fair.

Windwalker, Turn 3

Power: 5
Doom: 2

Action: Make a Gate in the Arctic Ocean.



Power: 2
Doom: 2

As a note, when you make a new Gate layer, guys, please name the layer based on where it is. (also please don't stack like four/five gates all together but i'm pretty sure those are accidents so okay)

I did this initially so there'd be one go-to spot for new gates in the early going.

Ah. Whoops, they're gone now.

Everyone knows how to duplicate a layer, right?

I'm kind of busy tonight and tomorrow so it may take me a little to get my turn up. Hopefully it'll be soon, but at least by Sat night.

All right. If you decide what you want to do but don't have time to deal with the files, you can always post and I'll update the map.

North Atlantic? Nope, go about your business. If you meant the North Pacific, then maybe.

My dropbox is out of space, so I can't upload the new one. I'll work on a fix.

You can't upload the file to my dropbox? Shouldn't it just use up my capacity?

Nope. Ithaqua's Ferox passive prevents you from capturing any of my cultists with a monster, regardless of if the cultist has friends in the Area or not.

Try again.

I just tried again. I think it counts as part of mine since it's shared with me. I can start a new account and get that going moving forward; this account has a bunch of work files in it.

Sorry for the inconvenience.
