+This is my writeup for my game as the renegade in the US May Days Without Stife game.
+
+If you don't know what that is then see (TODO put some link here)
+
+## Day 1
+
+To start off I got 3 telegrams of note
+
+From the Arrows of Artemis
+
+> Head to Windheart, can talk?
+
+From Young Empire
+
+> 'Lo! Emily here! This + Comm
+
+with a trade offer to build a base in exchange for Leafburn which I started in/with
+
+Finally I got a trade request from Museborn for Leafburn in exchange for Electrum which after some negotiation I got 1.5 Electrum for which based on one person in the discord is comparatively a .5 electrum profit + really funny.

+
+
+In retrospect I should've negotiated a bit more for a commend but oh well.
+
+Also I'm not sure if I'm sending enough telegrams or not or if I should send longer ones, 30 might be enough for me to willy nilly send messages but it might also be barely enough for a full day

+Reading that title I expect roughly one of three responses.
+
+1. What's a Finite State machine
+2. Oh a post about something we talked about in the class that brought up Turing Machines in university, aren't these equivalent to Regex?
+3. Finite state machines are neat for (insert use case) I wonder what this guy has to say about them
+
+The third group maybe being subdivided between people whose use case seems niche and whose use case is clearly not niche.
