Hold A Discussion Wrote:You open with a question or a declaration.
Starting with you and going clockwise, everyone
gets to weigh in once, sharing a single argument
comprised of 1-2 sentences. If you opened with a
question, you get to weigh in last. If you opened with
a declaration, that’s it for you.

A discussion never results in a decision or summation
process. Everyone weighs in, and then it’s over. This
is how conversations work in communities: they are
untidy and inconclusive affairs.

Each discussion should be tied to a situation on the
map. When a discussion ends, mark the situation it is
attached to with a small dot.

It’s important that we stay concise. If any of us feel
like we have more to say on a topic, we can always
hold another discussion about it at a later point.

Working on Projects Wrote:Unless your card specifically told you otherwise (in
bold text), the next step is to reduce each project die
on the map by 1. If a project reaches 0, the die gets
removed and the project is completed. Whoever
started the project gets to tell everyone how it turns
out, and update the map to reflect its completion.

If a project finishes early (because a card says that “a
project finishes early” in bold text), it is instead the
responsibility of the active player to tell everyone how
it turns out and to update the map.

If your card’s bold text had you place a project die on
the map just a moment ago, that die doesn’t reduce
during this week. It’s just now getting under way.
When a project gets completed, it is assumed that it
went successfully and is beneficial to the community.

In some cases, it might make sense to have an
investigative project end with a hope dispelled. Even
in these cases, the completion of a project should
always feel like a step forward, not backward. This
doesn’t always mean that the whole community is
happy with the results, though.
