I saw the outcome of the last option and was like “CWA, what happened to your wit?” and then read the option and it’s now one of the best I’ve ever seen :rofl:

My opinions do not represent any NS governments I may happen to be in (yeah right), any RL governments I may happen to be in (yeah right), the CIA, the NSA, the FBI. the Freemasons, the Illuminati, Opus Dei, the Knights Templar, the Organization for the Advancement of Cultural Marxism, Opus Dei, or any other organization. Unless I say they do, in which case, there is a nonzero chance.

Thanks! It's a type of punchline we haven't much used yet, just deadpan statement of the obvious juxtaposed against prolonged denial of the obvious. Done a lot in webcomics, not often used in NS.

I think the phrase "complains the rotund patrician, taking a seat on the back of a wincing arthritic slave who has knelt down for this purpose." is written strangely. Perhaps something like "complains the rotund patrician, taking a seat on a wincing arthritic slave's back who knelt down to accommodate his master." Just a suggestion. Good issue overall, and I think it's almost ready, if not ready, to be submitted.
"Nobody here on NSG is sane, including me."



Just in case, often when I discuss something, it's under the pretense of the Socratic Method or the devil's advocate, so just know that I don't always advocate for what I'm saying. Thank you.

Also, I have a habit of editing posts soon after they're made to correct minor errors. Please be aware of that.

Eh, I've got five other drafts that have been in GI for longer. I tend to submit them in batches. Cheers for the vote of confidence though.

Will submit this one and the five before it now.
