Getting To The Robotics Club For Complete Airheads

I'm dropping this here because I don't know where to put it, but here's a mini guide to getting that selfless reputation you need to access the club. Perhaps it's redundant because there's a list in the reputation talk page, but this is for the folk who like things...simple.

In order to get into the Robotics Club, you have to be on the community end of the (solitary/community) scale. The way this works (well, as close as I can get with a theory):

• There's a hidden "meter" in the game that keeps track of what kind of reputation you're leaning towards with certain choices in some non-combat adventures. It'll only remember the last several choices you made, so at a certain point past choices are completely forgotten in the grand scheme of things.
• You have to pick the same type of response consistently, or else the game will clear out the meter, and you'll have to start building up to a reputation shift again.
• The meter won't grow unless you use different adventures. Encountering the same adventure repeatedly won't do you any good.

Since you want community, pick these choices:

• In "Intermission" (Cube Theater), pick the more worn path to signal your support for the community, which is to the right.
• In "Dilemma of the Horns" (streets of Downtown Twilight), solve the gridlock because the other choice is more personal, and we're trying to move away from that. More importantly, the people of Twilight need you!
• In "Pick Yer Poison" (City of Lost Robots), go with the Gingerette Black, because going along with the crowd means going along with the community.

Remember to "cycle" through these adventures. As soon as you hit one and make the choice, go to another area to look for the adventure there. Then go to the third area after that. And then return to the first. It'll happen in no time.

After you've gotten Virtuous/Altruist/Watchdog, you'll be able to access the Robotics Club from the University. There, you can buy unlimited (untradeble) robotics kits that you can weld to different metals. Try infernium. Heck, even cybertronium works.

On the other hand, we all know what happens when you fuse one to an infernal pinata....

Feel free to point out any glaring flaws in this guide.
