I gotta be missing something here...with only the cookies option left, Susan is at 39 Ambition, which keeps me from the Titan account, internship, etc. But Brittney, Jill, and Ann don't have anything that causes her ambition to go down further.
If I do cookies, it lets me take over internship, etc, but that plus the posters and management style only get me to 27. So there has to be something missing here. That said, I tried the poison pill option, just to test, and while it gets her down to 0 ambition, nothing triggers with Tracey to take over consulting.
Thanks for the detailed write up though, I feel like its the correct steps, but I'm just missing something obvious. I did cheat money and ego, but thats it.
I'll try it again in more detail. By day, no cheats.
