>>5686047
I'm giving up /v/ to play for /sci/, because /v/ doesn't need more people, and they might not be smart about coordination.

We need to be smart from the get-go, have a solid plan. The best thing I can think of is to build as much resources as possible from the start, as they will become a valuable commodity once other islands start using them up. We also need to be smart about who we make friends with. Under no circumstances can we be buddy-buddy with /b/, because they are the board with the least intelligence, or /mlp/ because we would be targeted by association. /o/ and /ck/ are primary friendlies, but to be honest I'm not sure how /fit/ feels about us.

We should also try our hand at building some aesthetic structures, maybe work on a town hall, university, etc.
