BlogNomic: The First Dynasty of Desertfrog

I think that the Alpha Universe is in crisis.

Scientist Brendan-Alpha has twice bought and sacrificed Orthomatter. On 8 March, 12,025 Orthomatter was bought, decreasing the Crisis from 512,000 to just under 500,000. The crisis was then doubled to 999,950, at which point a further 120,890 Orthomatter was bought and sacrificed.

Unfortunately, I think that Brendan-Alpha can’t buy or sacrifice Orthomatter, as Brendan-Alpha is Prime-oriented.

(Brendan-Alpha’s Polarity is minus four; “Any Scientist with a Polarity that is negative is considered to be Prime-Oriented, while any Scientist with a Polarity that is positive is considered to be Alpha-Oriented.” Note also “At any time, an Alpha-oriented Scientist who controls a Self in the Alpha Universe may buy Orthomatter… or sacrifice Orthomatter”.)

The Alpha Universe is therefore in crisis. I have updated gamestate to reflect this and refunded Brendan-Alpha his money but would welcome a sense-check to ensure that I haven’t got something wrong.
