Finally, after farming holy rats and god points to buy some god stuff, a god-king is me. Rat to business.
ETA: and 22 minutes later, I am Rattus.
I still had bee brews in reserve, even with what I think is bad RNG with "make a billion rat" and "throw the dice" cards. I also could have just bought some billrats for godpoints, of course, but I am packratting those.
But even one ratscending in one sitting is a bit tiring, I don’t foresee doing several of those every day.
Also, fanciness=ostentatious - another milestone. edited by xKiv on 8/19/2013
ETA2: oh, and the -ratiation on godly something in combination with "you can’t have more than 50 ratiation" (which is in effect in rat storage) is probably unintentionally preventing ratiation to do anything to me in there. I had 50 unbuffed, but only 30 effective, so nothing bad happened, and it didn’t go over 50 because the cap is on the unbuffed quantity. edited by xKiv on 8/19/2013
ETA3: well okay, just this once: avarat 10: rattus rattus

ETA4: The one true rat god! The one true rat god! Is a true rat god at 11 and is still a true rat god at 13!

Now that my Heart Cooldown is FINALLY gone, several days late, I can do some wishing! One wish confuses me though… in order to wish for better augmentation, you need exactly 5 circuitry, but have to be exactly a Tyrant king. I thought you had to be a Clockwork King in order to get any circuitry?
I added a little tooltip to the Unrepentant quality to explain where you get it! It’s a separate quality to being a king (but being a Clockwork Rat King is a prerequisite to get it)
Also the Heart not cooling down was because of a Storynexus bug that just got fixed this morning. edited by Spacemarine9 on 8/20/2013
In the meantime, I wish to record that I am now through 4 levels of There-are-no-words-Tier God, and that 600=garnished and 700=frilly.
This is dangerously addictive.
So it’s probably a bug that you can lose rats from choosing not to commit crimes. At the very least it’s certainly a bug that the flavor text still tells you about how not committing crimes gives you holy rats. I’m gaining more often than I’m losing, but it seems odd that I’m losing any at all.
Oh whoops! I did a dumb thing with the numbers on that one and I’m surprised I didn’t notice sooner.
(namely i made it ten times as good as it was supposed to be and added a superfluous random number effect that could cause the reward to be negative)
Should be better now!
Errr. I probably shouldn’t be able to increase my circuitry to 8 from the “use rat circuitry” page, should I? Methinks you missed adding a requirement.
Oh, damn. That should only have gone as far as 3, but I must have forgotten to set that requirement.
I don’t know what your circuitry level was beforehand but it’s at 7 now! Also have some free gold, I guess.
Interesting. The "Someone else?" card in the Rat Storage Zone doesn’t have the proper requirements set on the social actions. I can send a message or rats to anyone through it, despite the fact that it should be limited to people in the Rat Storage Zone.
Additionally, I have no clue what the requirements for brewstorming someone else is. They’re probably arcane and complex, though. I mean, usually.
EDIT: Oh, right, I had other bugs to report. For example, I can’t progress in the seeking. I found the well, send the 777777 rats, and made the brew in that order, and I think that broke something. Was the sending supposed to have a requirement slightly higher than it does?
Also I can’t read books anymore, but I’m assuming that’s caused by my tyrant quality rather than a bug. I mean, it’s not caused by my circuitry. I tested.
EDITEDIT: Whoops, just forgetful today it seems. Busting out of Jail Zone by being above the law resets debt, but not crime. Also, almost every card in the Rat Storage zone, as well as Anonymous Donation in the God Zone require an action to play.

Fixed! I used the wrong messaging social act, so it could send messages to people in the default instance (i.e. the rat zone) instead of people in the same instance.
They need to have a Chef Hat. I don’t know why I set that as the requirement, but there you go. Chefs only.
You can get the candle and then make a Hellacious Brew out of it, which sends you to Hell Zone. Except I guess the Brew has a slightly higher requirement than the Candle. So that doesn’t make a whole lot of sense, might as well fix that.
Normally you go to the well, get candle, go to the Rat Book, go back to the well, do stuff with other opp cards, go back to the well again, and then go to Hell Zone. And then you can finish up the quest by going back to the well a bunch more times.
If you have a chef hat, you can get eggs from the books. But not books from an egg, because that’d be silly. Maybe I should add a few extra requirement-free books, though.
I had the two Bust Out options the wrong way round. Welp! Fixed those.
And well, they say they cost an action, but they… don’t. It’s just an awkward bug that comes about from me creating stuff as Always cards first and then moving them into the deck rather than putting them in the deck at first. I’ll try and get rid of any of those superfluous action requirements I find, though. edited by Spacemarine9 on 8/22/2013

So I am a new rat-sender, and oh, wow. this is strangely addicting. Many thanks to NiteBrite, who gave me many rats and fished me out of the Hell Zone because really, people warn you about stranger danger but never about well danger.
(And if there were warning regarding the unwiseness of listening to wells, well, who reads well signs?)
Uh. So I’m in the Jail Zone. I can’t… get out of it, even though I’m a Rat King and have already reduced my crime level to 0. Pretty much all the options but the Rat King one and the “send a hundred rats” one have disappeared.

After playing this game, essentially in isolation, I’ve found myself in Hell. I suppose I had that coming. Any help forthcoming from my local ratking would be appreciate it![li]
EDIT: Glory be to xKiv. edited by rykarmalkus on 10/21/2013
How do you progress after getting the first candle? The only thing I could find to do was yell at the well, which… well, now I need 777,777 rats again. Facepalm moment. But yeah, not sure what to do after that point.
