Well, I see your point, but it is also way cheaper than any other authors Patreon, so it somehow balances out? At least to me, it does.

2023-12-08 13:55:14 +0000 UTCI still want a Stat list of various bronze and silver classes

2023-12-06 01:17:11 +0000 UTCno be fair, we never had that much delving do begin with

2023-12-03 00:25:52 +0000 UTCI love the content so much. I just have to cancel my subscription because so little material to justify paying this sadly.

Cirvante
2023-11-27 03:43:57 +0000 UTCI couldn't agree more! I was worried we'd have to wait for dedicated grannybrain chapters to get more of our grouchy gamgams.
JC Silver
2023-11-26 23:10:26 +0000 UTCIs this story going to shift back towards delving at some point? I personally find the business building chapters less exciting.

2023-11-26 17:10:57 +0000 UTCSo my bad, reading to fast and not paying much attention on these details on the Bank system thingy i guess

2023-11-26 16:38:44 +0000 UTCThose were board members presidents are below them on the hierarchy there are thousands of presidents
Kain
2023-11-26 16:09:21 +0000 UTCNo. Those are the board members. The presidents are different and i believe they are like brach owners.
Christian Basso
2023-11-26 16:01:54 +0000 UTCKeep in mind that we've already seen that two out of the three Plats were dying of old age at an age less than 250. So even if every member of the Board is Gold, they are unlikely to be immortal and will die of old age eventually. That will create a slow turn over on it's own, even assuming they allow hereditary transfer.
MagusZanin
2023-11-26 15:52:15 +0000 UTCThink of it as a kind of corporate feudalism. The Presidents are the individual Barons that pay tribute to the Dukes (the Board) and then you have the Kings at the top. Then you have the Enforcers as nonlanded Knights to enforce the governing body's will.
MagusZanin
2023-11-26 15:48:04 +0000 UTCPresidents and the Board are not the same ranks. Every member of the 10 Slot Board has multiple "Presidents" under them that run various enterprises.
MagusZanin
2023-11-26 15:45:17 +0000 UTC" I’m not about to list out every President, so don’t ask." Huhu, did she not do that exactly each time for the different 'type' of them when explained them?
Zarik0
2023-11-26 15:08:38 +0000 UTCI feel like she's probably not there quite yet, but I imagine her getting there extremely quickly 🤣

2023-11-26 14:41:48 +0000 UTCRain still very naive in realpolitick. Don't let your new puppet in on your goals/values, its just another handle on you for them to grasp hold of.

2023-11-26 11:10:10 +0000 UTCFixed, thanks!

2023-11-26 10:40:58 +0000 UTCI enjoyed how Reece sits on the couch and gives real time comments. Like a couch warrior only that she actually knows stuff. Or maybe a movie night with friends with actual political implications? Fun contrast. Especially if I imagine her with snacks and a huge cup with a drinking straw yelling at the tv.

2023-11-26 10:33:20 +0000 UTCUplift didn't really start until they brought in the airship, which seems a bit on the nose. ;)

2023-11-26 09:30:42 +0000 UTCShhhhh! They'd have to "Delve" to do that. I don't see it happening.
Eidetic Eidolon
2023-11-26 08:48:59 +0000 UTCThere are people not in the top 10 who apparently control more assets than 3 goldships. It functions, amusingly enough, as a deterrent to the grow, grow, grow philosophy of capitalism. Which as we've seen tends to lead to monopolies.

2023-11-26 08:48:03 +0000 UTCThanks for the chapter, always a pleasure.
Doodlyboy15
2023-11-26 07:32:51 +0000 UTCPutting the ability to control more than one major asset behind already being in the top ten is a transparent attempt to keep the positions at the top. Any change in the board is probably bloody.

2023-11-26 07:03:49 +0000 UTCLuna is a greedy banker but the fact he was able to make it to 4 and maintain that means he is competent. Though anyone with a rank is to one degree or another. But he is also in a weak position where he is most likely to listen. As long as he gets filthy rich, he should be able to tolerate Rain’s idealism. Even if he plans some shady stuff, Ascension just needs to grow enough where they cannot be stomped. Getting 8 gold plates (a full team) would be a nice start.

ZCochraine!%
2023-11-26 06:16:11 +0000 UTC"Board Investors", in the first recap/definition of who the major players are, should be "Board Exploiters". Also, while I love the world building and exposition that the info dumps give us, I hope they won't supercede the new content that actual chapters give us
Gardor
2023-11-26 06:15:43 +0000 UTCBoard Investors: Jien ... i think these are exploiters but reece said the ideas were similar
