Yasuki Taraka wrote: Thu Nov 20, 2025 2:27 pm Ok with deadline looming and wheeling and dealing, I *need* gm clarity on this:

The Clan with the most Bid Points will secure a lucrative merchant contract on the Tango Province Islands. .... This contract is approximately 3 Large Unique Holding and 10 Medium Unique Holding Gentries.

The Clan with the second most Bid Points will have a say in the planning and development of the Tango Provinces. ... This contract is worth approximately 1 Large Unique Holding and 5 Medium Unique Holding Gentries.

So, let's say the Tanuki clan pops in to existence and wins the most Bid points. Can they then say, "And Yasuki Taraka will get to be in charge of 1 of the Large Unique Holdings because she is oh so pretty and clever?" And I'll actually get that in my advantages?

I had read this as more of a flavor of just how important these contracts were, not things to actually be given out, but Tanuki-san is confusing me. Please help a confused Crab.
The GMs are still finalizing discussion of this.

But as it appears, these Holdings are more under the ownership of the Clans than of the individuals who are acquiring them for their Clans. But that doesn't mean that you can't arrange for some place for people! These can be used in the same way as spending 30 points for a Gentry, to represent some responsibility/ownership of the gentry.

Additionally, we are adding that each individual can only benefit from this once, whether the 30 point version or the above granted version.

Note, more and bigger Holdings are still better for your clan! Don't slack off just because you've got yours!

Awww, man Tanuki-san showed me a screenshot of something Boogie said somewhere secret and I thought that was enough. Tanuki-san misled me!

Ok, so I *can't* personally benefit from this more than once. To keep from having to renegotiate with Tanuki-san, can we say I get one and someone of my choosing gets one?

That seems reasonable, probably?

Maybe move this to your PF, so you can discuss it with the GMs and not keep shaming poor Tanuki-san?

Yes, it is the Bon Festival on the 28th of Dog!

Totally not expecting players to supply the Departed, to be clear. Just the Toasts!

I would like to request a scene with the governor or someone in charge of law enforcement in Nakahama for a business offer during D7 :D

Feels like a job for Kuni Junpei!

Ahhhh, Day 7 might be packed but if you're willing for a lower posted scene.

Now that you mention it, it would be for the Bon Festival! But my initial idea was to use it to promote Kanna's gentry business as a "hey, this could be coming to your neighbourhood possibly!"-advertisement. xD
For your business, it would have to fall under personal interests and out of pocket with the cost above!

To think this ad campaign spending would bankrupt most samurai and their starting kits in other games. :lol:
To easen your workload, since Sorato has informed Umiko of the local cult, I don't need Umiko on Day 7 after all. :) No need to add on more work when it's not needed!

Should I write the kicker post? If so, where?

No hurries with dealing with my scene, I just got a bit of hyper energy to go around ATM.

Please do and thank you. It is likely to start with a visit to the magistrate's office.

Honoka would be looking to report yesterday's happenings to Kuni Junpei, or a subordinate, sometime Day 7! I don't have any particular reason this moment needs to happen on-screen, so unless you feel there might be a good reason to put it on screen it can just be known to happen considering day 7 is reported to be busy!!

New session, new stuff!

EDIT: Kinda related, but is it possible to find out who donated points to who in the Bid Points? :) Kanna needs to know who to send gift-baskets to!

Hmm, I think it could happen entirely off-screen, if it's entirely the Kaito incident. Unless you have other things you wish to chat with the magistrate. Then it can be a scene!

If donors wish to make themselves known, then yes! Otherwise, the submission was likely filed through the city with paperwork and would require some snooping around to make known.

Nope, just the Kaito incident with their first proper introduction. So, if they ever meet we can make a mental note that they have now properly met!!
