Why would you come here? You know we don't do that stuff.
Seriously, though, we don't have a queue. But that's chaos!Not really.
Doesn't that mean you'll have people building over each other ALL THE TIME?? Isn't that bad for Kush?
Well, you can still use some basic courtesy. But it's a choice. If you're a jerk, someone's likely to be a jerk to you. If you're polite, you're more likely to have people be polite to you. But there's no formal system. No one's running the show. It's up to you to decide how deferential you want to be, and up to you to deal with the social consequences (for better or worse) of your choices.
Okay, so if I want to be a jerk, I can just build whatever obelisk I want, whenever I want, and there won't be any consequences?
No - read above. You'll probably tick people off, and then they'll probably be a jerk to you. That's for you to deal with, if you go that route.
So, how would I go about making sure I'm NOT seen as a jerk?
Well, the first thing to do would be to meditate on obelisks and figure out if the tallest that has been seen by the Kush is currently waiting to pass. There are a few ways you could do this:
- run out to the obelisk, see who built it, and message the person to see if they've passed yet
- check Kush Discord #obelisk channel to see if anyone's posted the very obelisk that you're meditating on, and whether they posted that it passed
If it's already passed, then you build. It's that simple!
How can I reduce the chances that someone else will overbuild ME?
The more people know that you've built, the less likely you are to be overbuilt. You could:
- Announce that you've built in Kush faction chat
- Post your obelisk size, location, time of build and projected time of passing in Kush Discord #obelisk channel.
Ugh, I hate Discord, do I have to use it?
Nope. No one's requiring you to do anything. But it may be the easiest/best place for you to 1) get information on who's built recently and 2) post your build to reduce the likelihood of someone overbuilding you by accident.
What if two people both want to build 'next' after the current obelisk passes? Who gets to?
There are no rules for this. No one gets to 'claim' the next build spot in advance. You either come to an amicable agreement....or it's a race. (And if the loser of the race wants to be a jerk, it could turn into a war, if you let it.)
