Yeah, banananor's plan sounds good.

An easy thing to miss is that doing the synergy skills with Cloud also increase relationship values. I got Red XIII and I'm certain that's the reason why I got him over anyone else.

Incredibly close results - we nearly got a tie for the entire Rushmore! Newton was able to score himself in first and Gutenberg second, but who gets the 3rd and 4th?

Pretty big mistake here! I don't think it affected it...and if it did, Sandman has another chance this coming Wednesday.

I messed up with the prompt here. It was more aimed to be about "runs", basically arcs in comics that are generally have a concept with a clear start and end point. It looks like the RNG pulled that for next week and, hey, it was an interesting discussion with a tie!

Yeah, that was his most egregious incident pre-2024, and it was definitely worthy of an episode all by itself.

Also the Joe Rogan interview where he smoked weed. Which I think happened around the same week as the submarine thing.

A pretty quiet Rushmore. The last spot was a bit contentious, but Candle Cove takes it. I never even heard of that one, but it apparently has a good TV series!

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/8/896dbf15.png

Silent Hill 2 was leading the entire time and earns its spot.

Sleep isnt a bad option but I like having spell slots available. Disadvantage on Heal makes me want to wait until we get out of these manacles.

D, frighten.

In my heart

Yeahon the other hand, if we neutralize Darius, then the fight is essentially over. Sleep is pretty good (though, it ends after a minutegood for a fight, not so good afterwards).

This was a very good Rushmore topic. Lots of really great choices with only Street Fighter feeling like a lock. 6 games being within 2 points of each for the last spot is wild, especially at at least 9 votes each.
