Success

Precision

The numbers are tabulated, ordered, summed, analysed. The raw fodder of data, digested.

• Watchful is increasing…
•  You've lost 1 x Unexpected Result
•  You've gained 8 + (2 × Equipment level) x Laboratory Research

Rare Success

Ghosts in the equations

The numbers are tabulated, ordered, summed, analysed. And from that analysis, something emerges – a conclusion that she undoubtedly saw, but did not call your attention to. Out of modesty? Or perhaps fear?

Failure

Too precise

Your Meticulous Student gets caught in a snag – a part of the dataset she feels she absolutely must model and integrate before handing the work on to you. It causes a considerable delay, but she will not be dissuaded from making her analysis perfect.
