Impossible secondary task?
I'm on day six and got the secondary task "At least 2 humans aged 60 or older have to die" but only 1 of my people are over 60. The ages I have are 22, 23,27, 33,53,56, 57 and 70.

But it won't affect anything too much!

Yeah I got that too, just ignore it, pretty sure you get the bonus if you at least get one

it may just be an oversight, perhaps a bug to be fixed

Yeah, I had that, and I got a right bollocking from Fate for not completing it, even though I physically couldn't.

It ultimately didn't cause any problem. But I was trying to be a perfect little grim and my streak was ruined. XD

I had a similar case with another task - I think it was about not enough young people. One thing I noted when compared to the demo: in the demo there was no clear age limit for "young", in the full game we get a number. Thanks!

The other cases where the player has to keep guessing are frustrating enough. (Does "every other" mean just half or do are they counted in a row from the top left corner? Which ones are "last from the fax" - incoming or outgoing? What exactly constitutes "science"? I'm a philosopher of science by trade and boy, was that one annoying...)

Those are the ones where Fate is starting to lose it and they are there to get you to screw up ;)
