Compounded Phase 3, Claim Placements

[Cabd]

I'm gonna be attempting to run this board game for fun art the suggestion of antihero.

This is a five player game. There is one winner, but your place in the endgame is important, not just one winner 4 losers. I will take signups for now, and players can go ahead and read the rulebook as well.

1. Antihero
2. Mykonian
3. BPC
4. ZZZX
5. Mitilos

Rulebook is there. Elements will be done via mod's dice roll. All elements of the game are public.

I dieded (bad typo intended)

[Mitillos]

Argh, this filled up way too fast!

[Cabd]

(Penguin might be running a second one if there's tons of interest)

[Mitillos]

I have tons of interest by myself!

[mykonian]

read the rules, think I get the majority, will have to experience some.

timezones are going to be interesting.

(Penguin might be rigging the whole draw bag with hydrogen-only in retribution for being left out) (Penguin wonders if Cabd will be eating anything chemist-Penguin cooks for him this next week or if he's smarter than that)

I heard there were cheap ways of increasing someone's nitric oxide blood levels dangerously high, which could easily be swallowed. I'd go with that.

Spoiler:

Discovery is how many elements you draw at the start of each turn. Extras not able to fit in your lab are discarded after phase 1 ends. It is upgraded by Blue chemicals.
Study is how many claim tokens you may have active on the game board at any time. It is upgraded by Orange chemicals.
Research is how many elements you MUST place on the game board each turn, if able. It is upgraded by Green Chemicals.
Lab is how many elements you may have in your inventory at any given time. It is upgraded by any type of chemical, although scoring in lab forgoes scoring the chemical in its respective color.
Tools are earned through upgrading Study twice, or by completing certain chemicals as noted on the board. Each tool will be explained once seen or obtained.

Spoiler: Legend of Symbols

{elements-in-chemical, points, color of upgrade}

+ denotes that scoring this chemical requires you to upgrade another player's board by one

M denotes that upon scoring this chemical, you may, during the scoring phase, move your claim token immediately to another chemical.

P denotes that this chemical is poison and will lower an opponent's score instead of aiding yours, when completed.

F denotes a single flame token. Chemicals that have all their flame tokens used explode.

A chemical is either Orange (O), Green (G), or Blue (B). Some chemicals can be more than one, but you have to choose which one it'll be to score it.

Bipolcar Chemist, as he has the rarest element of anyone (except antihero who got screwed on a coin flip) is hereby given the lab manager's key and the first turn!

We are currently in phase 2: Study. Each player, in order (From top to bottom as listed in the OP, looping around, starting with BPC this round) may use any claim token held to claim a chemical formula on the game board. The chemical claimed will be changed to your color to denote this. Each player has 12 hours to make their play in this phase. Please indicate your desired spot on the game board by using (x, y) publicly.

I'll assume that all trading and talking has to be done in this thread?

[Cabd]

Yes, although phase 1 is skipped on round one, so no trading yet.

[mykonian]

That's a shame.

zzzx, can we have a friendly conversation?

[mykonian]

I guess editing would be rather silly as well.

Maybe it's better to see what anti does first.

[ZZZX]

And yea dure. But after a few hours I just wake up lol
