Huh, now I'm especially confused - for the assassination attempts I escaped, I don't recall there being any indication of who sent them or any option to remove someone after. Am I supposed to be speaking to security right after one?? I can't think of anything else that would start an investigation so I could denounce the right person. I'm not revealing the rot13 just in case.
My assumption so far has been that if i try too hard to ignore any specific group, they will also try to murk me, but now I'm considering doing it purposely to get rid of people i dont want to focus on if I can figure out how to identify assassins.
I considered working on media but yeah, i think specific numbers would really just make me overthink things. Hilariously the runs where i ignored interaction/empathy and guessed elector's positions on vibes have gone just as well as runs where I am getting those skills. Trying to figure out how to win specific votes has definitely been my strategy currently, but I've been running into too many assassins to get enough information. I've been trying to figure out which electors' quests use the same or similar skill checks to hopefully optimize where I'm spending time.
Thank you for the advice! I might be terminally stupid but dang it i want that ending!
