Athena L.M.I'm so good at #GalaxyPrincessZorana
I think I'm going to make a spreadsheet. Or maybe a database. I'm definitely going to need some planning and analysis to know what skills to get when.
A new record for votes pledged set in playthough #5, "Zorana's Groundhog Day Has Only Begun": 2 (two) votes.
Alright, Zorana's Groundhog Day Has Only Begun was my most successful playthrough by far, with 3 votes achieved (two gimmes and one quest that requires minimal skills) before being abruptly assassinated. And I've been taking notes, so I'm getting a much better idea of what skills I should pick up when. Next playthrough… will still die almost certainly, but I might be able to solidify my notes to the point that in playthrough #7 I might have some kind of chance? It's gonna depend at least somewhat on the luck of the draw when it comes to assassination attempts though.
Following playthrough #6, "Zorana's Brain Is Starting to Work," I feel I have nearly enough information to make a viable plan. I am sure the game will throw curveballs at me, though, so I will probably still lose.

TreeTime
TreeTime# Linked Trees for Notes, Tasks, and Structured Data# TreeTime is a tool for keeping, organizing and analyzing information using separate cross-linked hierarchies. Unlike flat lists, spread sheets, or single-view apps, the same data item can appear in multiple trees at the same time — giving you flexible, multi-perspective sorting, categorising, and calculation. Python Package Download / Windows Download / Linux Documentation Source Code Report Issues What is TreeTime?# TreeTime is a light-weight data manager that arranges your data in trees — units and sub-units. Each data object can belong to several trees at the same time, allowing nested mathematical operations and exports to different graphic formats. → Read an explanation: What is a Tree?
@jkanev I don't think a hierarchical or linear data model would be ideal for the problem. What I need to know is a bunch of information along the lines of "Empathy 30 by turn 3," "Spirituality 40 before talking to X," "Be in sector A on turn 24," "Reflexes 50 before going to sector B." And then from that I need to work out a rough order of skill picks, places to go, and people to talk to. I think a spreadsheet or database is the right model here.
@jkanev Oh and I'm going to need a lot of ancillary information such as the Enemies List too, so I think a database makes sense…
@alilly Thanks for having a look. I wasn't quite serious : ) (That said, although it's hierarchical, you can have any number of trees (acting like DB tables), with 1-to-1 relationships between them, or if you use parent-child links or child-child-links, 1-to-many or many-to-many relationships.)

@jkanev Yeah, the multi-tree thing is definitely useful, but for this case I think tabular works better. It's neat software and I think there are definitely many cases where it would be handy.
