Just noticed new "commit a suicide option"

[NosgothKingdom]

Study economics, then turn on your TV.

That's so true I don't know whether I laugh or cry.

Once I read an "informative" article in one of our most popular magazines - more or less equivalent of what Time is in the USA - about "money" (inflation and shit). The only economists quoted were Smith and Ricardo (and maybe someone latter that century).

To sell this post as on-topic: you can just install PRGrep and search for all "add_trait = depression" instances in events/ folder, and then figure out which ones are easiest to manufacture.

Lol that's nothing. I watched yesterday a dude saying that we'll all starve without subsidies because noone will produce food without government incentives and everyone will just die of ensuing famine... :-\

just a tibidt on the search function, with vista and win7 (and 8?) you can search a folder, and click the search contents button that appears as well, and it will search all the text documents

A good way to get depressed is your wife dying and you staying unmarried for a longer time. You'll get an event and chose between lustfulness or depression

 

[Pyriel]

I confess to using this option once.

When my imbecille duke of swabia became depressed. I think I even cheered a littl.e

I havent tried this feature yet, but is there any other penalty to using this except loosing your ruler? I do believe to some extent suicide was also considered sinfull within the catholic church, because you still took a life, even though it was your own. A piety hit prior to the actual suicide could be a cool feature. Now I am ofcourse just thinking out loud.

A large piety cost would make a lot of sense, so that using this option cause be a hit to the final score for your dynasty (which would make sense).

And I tought they would deffend it based on income and jobs, *not* starving as if you couldn't just bring food over the border.
I wonder whether these people are just plain dumb or they expect the general population to be that dumb.

Edit: and I just remembered that in our last elections the socilist candidate suggested that the minimun wage should be *immediately* multiplied by 2 or 3. I was like: DAFUQ?

how to exploit this:

1) fall in love with ur wife/husband
2) kill your beloved wife/husband
3) become depressed
4) suicide your self
5)...
6) PROFIT!

Because the impoverished people living in the massive, sprawling shanty towns of your country couldn't use a minimum wage upgrade, right?

How can I get depression? I don't want to play an imbecile emperor. Somehow he's also a brilliant strategist, how that works I don't know.

He's the Rain Man of all things military.

Heavy cav, gotta attack with the heavy cav. on the flanks. with the heavy cav, heavy cav

 

[Gunnarr]

I have seen it to but I feel so dirty to use it... the ruler will be sent straight to hell!

Perhaps it should be disallowed on those with the zealous trait ;P

I am sure they would also love increase in princes from the increased labor cost.

Then again, there is no point in arguing about politics with someone with the communist flag ;P

I'm sure they could, but you can't make a huge increase on an immediate basis. If they were to announce that as of tomorrow minimum wage was doubled, I'm sure many of the people they'd like to help would just end up fired instead of getting more money.

Saw this earlier today. Unfortunately my quick, attractive son who is betrothed to a genius wasn't of age yet, otherwise I might have considered it.

Yes, most would get either fired or become informal workers (ignoring minimun wage) and we would risk another hyperinflation. So no, no sudden shocks.

This is absolutely not on topic, but fuck it: So true!
