Search Results: the first step

I think it's pretty common knowledge that most girls dislike indirectness and indecisiveness. I feel like most guys feel the same way but I just want to take a poll to see how accurate this is.

Indirectness/indecisive examples:

You want the air conditioner off but instead of stating that, you say, "It's freezing."

You're hungry. Instead of stating that you want to eat, you ask, "Are you hungry?" or "Did you eat?"

You're attracted to someone at a bar but instead of stating that, you say, "Your drink looks cool. What drink is that?"

Please be honest. I believe that if you have been indecisive or indirect, acknowledging is the first step to change this. Of course, if people don't think it's a bad habit or you really just don't care about other people, then you can do as you wish.

The following core card game mechanics are copyright material of Wade Daniel Smith.

Player Bonus Life:
Players start with 10 Bonus Life. When a player takes damage or pays or loses life, if they have bonus life, the bonus life is lost first. If they do not have enough bonus life, then they exile cards from the top of their Main Deck equal to the difference. Players lose the game when they have zero cards in their Main Deck. If a player gains Life they gain Bonus Life.

Workers:
Workers are REQUIRED to deploy new structures. Workers also provide the ability to augment healing of certain units and structures, and provide an additional source of resources. the "Focus" Ability cannot target Workers. All workers are Units, but Units are not Workers unless they say so. You may have more than 4 workers of the same name in a deck.

Structures:
Provide powerful effects which differ drastically by faction.

Main:
You MUST have a level 1 Main Structure to play the game, and the Main Structure begins on the Battlefield.

Unit Stats explanation:
P = Power
L = Life
A = Armor
U = Upkeep (if Zero this is not displayed)
