Probably not. I've been far too busy putting .308s in every raider, Legionnaire and rampaging tribal in the Mojave Wasteland to actually finish the character.


I'm not going to lie: I've been spending a fair amount of time toppling the government of a small island nation. But I'm still here....

You aren't trying to roll a hacker and an AI that is a first for both playstyles.

And Jagged Alliance 2 is a fantastic game.

While I too love Jagged Alliance 2 especially with the v1.13 mod, I think he might be talking about Just Cause 1 or 2. Same exact plot, different ways of approaching it.

To save you time in researching, JC2 involves fewer characters but more explosions and gunplay.

Rastus is correct, I'm playing Just Cause 2. It is absurd how much fun it is.

Any players need a game? I run my section of the 2072 game in my own thread to minimize confusion in posting since we did have two fairly active groups. Right now I have one person I'm running for and wouldn't mind another one or two if anyone is interested.

I'd be interested (as Silk or another PC depending on timelines) but I haven't been keeping up with your seperate thread...would you start something new in the 2072 thread or are you thinking of a continuation of yours?

The only reason I branched to another thread is there was a period of time where a couple of people were quoting off my story posts for other plot-lines. As for storylines, I'm in between jobs at the moment with the other player; they are meeting a Johnson. So it would be no real problem to integrate anyone in. I try and run things in a modular fashion that way people can step in and out of the story and pursue other ventures with other Game Masters of the 2072 world. I do have an overarching plot for all of it. Just the people that stick with it are going to be the ones that get to explore the whole story rather than just dealing with what's known up to that point.

The Doctor, SSS, and I are kind of...well, nothing's going on in our adventure. Unsound has kind of left us for the moment.

You know I probably could mesh it together and work something out for the lot of you for my next segment.

What players from Unsound's story thread are still present and interested in exploring their characters? I'll probably just shelf Scar for the time being then.

I know The Doctor just posted in the IC thread. I'm still interested, and I'll talk to SSS tonight. I haven't seen anyone else posting for a while.

Count Silk in then...Abs isn't able to GM for her at the moment.

Also; I don't particularly want to overstep my bounds as some guy that half-knows the game and decided to run it to help make it better. But I'm of the opinion that since unsound has been awol for going on 2 months; someone should probably take over the management of characters and distribution of karma/resources and so forth so that players can actually advance their characters instead of having them sit in a void. Which is not at all fun.

I'm volunteering to do it as I like the way this game is organized to allow flexibility for participants; but I want to make sure that no one else will have a huge problem with it before I try and get everything updated.

Anyone who would have a beef with that, Grimm, has been incognito for at least two months. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/nyahnyah.gif)

As long as you can actually keep up with it--and I mean that in the, "My life has no particularly surprising things coming up which will distract me from such administrative duties," way--then I would welcome it.

I would recommend, however, that everytime you DO update the logs, you append a little
"Updated -- dd/mm/yy"
thing so if unsound ever comes back--or if you ever get distracted--it'll be easier for someone else to piece together how far along we are.

But otherwise, yes: A GM in the hand is worth two in the bush.

UPDATE

I'm currently working on getting the game updated and moved to a new thread, which I've pretty much done. My next goal is to retroactively award active players since Unsound went AWOL. Since I don't know when the last time he updated the thread was, I'm going to use the last day he was present as the cut off date for back awards. So that will mean the last seven weeks. I am also going to start sliding inactive players off the character list to a new post so they are not cluttering things up.

I am going to attempt to have a post up Mondayish to start another plotline moving forward for the people that were interested.

If I file you under MIA and you're not. Let me know. Remember, I'm looking through a crapload of information to try and organize it.

Thanks!

Another note. I'm going to award all active players 4 Karma + 10000 Nuyen for the run up to that period. I realize that while Unsound might have been here, it doesn't appear that awards were given out appropriately. So everyone will get at least 4 + 10K to represent what should have been awarded prior to Sept 19th.

This is my final count. Everyone should receive 4 karma/10k nuyen at minimum. So add four to the number below when doing your figuring.

I have posts for the last seven weeks counted as follows:

Abs: 0
Aria: 5
AtomicCommunist: 1
Astarshipforants: 3
Combat Mage: 1
Grimm: 6
Karoline: 0
NotsoevilDM: 7
Red_Cap: 0
Solon: 0
SuicidalStreetSamurai: 1
TheDoctor: 3
DaedalusK71: 3

If there is any conflicts or errors, please let me know. Once again, add 4 to the number listed next to your name for the total reward.

Alright. I think I'm done with organization crap for now. I slid the people off who are MIA to their own section. I added DaedalusK71's character to the list. Karma and Nuyen are awarded.

Oh one final thing, I removed the PVP flag thing. If unsound wants to reinstitute that when he gets back; that's up to him. But I honestly don't see how PVP interactions will work out in the slightest in this type of format with the wide range of experience of players that we have.

If I missed anything or anything looks off to you, drop me a PM or leave a message.

Nice work Grimm!

If I've got it right I have an extra 11 karma and 10k nuyen on top of the 2 points and 5k that were awarded by unsound.

@Notsoevildm: It wouldn't be 10k Nuyen. For every one karma awarded there is 2500 nuyen awarded. So 11 x 2500 = 27500. Then that should be in addition to the 2 and 5000 already awarded by unsound.

@All: Thanks for the replies so far. I'm going to sit down and figure out what to do with the current plot today.
