@Nigel I want you to know that any action you take right now will succeed.
The least you can get is an 8, which is already 2 above 6.
At this point just learn to imitate specific human voices, get the nuclear launch codes, and then launch the nukes.
So is TO’s mission now changing to “kill all humans”?
Oh no it’s still to build the tallest tower, we just don’t want those troublesome humans to get in the way.
How close do they need to be to “our way” for them to be “troublesome”?
Potentially in our way.
A possibility is a liability.
I think domin is up to something more than just building the tower…
that’s why i’m making us evolve democratic violence
so that unless the majority of players want to do violence, inherently violent actions fail
rather than just only failing if the majority of players really don’t want to do violence, or a 1 is rolled
Yeah, still I don’t think people (in the fg) will like what’s already been done…
Action 1: Learn how to near-perfectly Imitate human voices
Action 2: do research on nuclear launch codes
Action 3 (the most important one): Make tower taller
Uh oh, I have a bad feeling about this…
we’re just gonna make em think the other humans did it, so while theyre focused on warring eachother, we can build tower
You sure they won’t suspect anything?
how could they
With a bad roll, who knows what would happen?
but ill roll good
I suppose so with cent’s votes helping too…
Edit: @CatSquared @Trappist-1e
Actions:
- More investigations into corruption within the government/police
- Decrease military spending (to seem less violent)
- Spend the money that would have gone to the military on better law enforcement
I wonder what will domin resort to after violence vote “rules” are changed…

Round 49 - 6:00, May 8th, 2000
Round Summary
It appears that the strangely hostile actions of TO towards people as seen in the night preceding this dawn have ceased… for now at least.
The Organism Report
Having already mastered the ways of preventing total researcg failure, the ant has now changed it’s focus to making extraordinarily good research possible. A small mutation in it’s ganglia allowed this will to shape into a semi-physical form that is there to stay (research rolls of 7 possible). This revelation in outstanding experimentation efforts has also brought about some changes in the way TO shapes it’s mutation - it appears now acts openly hostile towards humans, whenever occurring inside this arthropod or all across the planet, need multiple checks before being brought to life. It could be that the massacre committed just a couple hours ago was not planned at all (violence voting for).
In a residual puddle that laid still at the outskirts of the main nest, TO spotted something green. But it was no algae - in fact, the ant has recently researched a certain organism and knows it will find it there. Green sulfur bacteria has been acquired, and so have been some yeast samples from the storageroom of foods deep benath the tower area…
After hiding the two microbe samples in the safe chamber already filled wall to wall with much food, TO started to practice human speech capabilities of it’s, standing ontop the pile of food inside which many corpses of people from this night’s massacre lie. Despite the grim surrounding, the voice would soon be perfected, with a high mimicking ability too; Internet, even though primitive still, must have helped a lot (Voice Mimic Ability)…
TO also would do some research on nuclear launch codes, and even though there wasn’t much available online, by using certain questionable methods TO managed to acquire all the necessary information to master it’s knowledge on this subject in a matter of a few dozen minutes (Ultimate NLC knowledge). And of course, time came to build the tower even further up, though this time around the large amount of things done seem to have exhausted the ant a bit, causing it’s progress this time of this day to be rather pathetic (+25 Tower Meters).
This failure at building the tower high enough however also caused TO to seek new ways of propelling itself more efficiently. As it turned out, more improvements to the spiracles are around, one of them being fuel efficiency (+125 MH, @Trappist-1e please submit a mutation related to the spiracle-jets). Using this new fuel, TO got to the top of the tower, watching the slow brightening of the sky. It could see various small dots of light moving quickly across the heavens. Knowing they could be useful to the ant ilk in the future, the ant decided to try and track their orbits and precise locations, however of these two none was finalized yet by dawn. Maybe next time around the internet will help TO understand how these flying boxes of metal and circuit work (Basic Satellite Knowledge)?
Despite the earlier mutation which was to prevent violent behavior, some parts of the ant’s many ganglions still seem to be acting as if that was not the case. Their plans have been locked currently, but it is not impossible the gates to possibility will still be opened to them in sometime…
Influence Report
Knowing that without any visible actions the new union is soon to crumble, TO sent orders to eliminate all corruption from the official bodies recently merged to create the institutions of the Formic State, and though the most painful sources of moneydrain were neutralized, many others remain. Knowing what it’s capable of, especially alongside it’s many children, TO also decided to cut off most military spending and redirect it elsewhere, particularly to law enforcement which has been struggling to reorganize in this rapidly evolving region, with promises being made that this cut doesn’t decrease the security level of the rather unrecognized state entity. (+3 FU stability)
