Your wait is FINALLY over!

Welcome to the Tango Down! OOC game thread. Here's some notes about this this game.

#1 This is a closed game. All the character positions are filled. I will not be taking any submissions.

#2 When posting in the IC thread, put quotes around what your character actually says, and put in italics his/her thoughts.

#3 Please disable your sig while posting in this game.

#4 Everyone needs to list the languages they speak on THIS thread so the rest of the characters will know. If your character wishes to say something in a lanuage other than English and not translate it for everyone else, you must PM myself and others who speak said language exactly what you said. If you want to translate it into english simply tag your text like this: "Thanks for the help, [russian]you cheating slitch.[/russian]"

#5 I will be doing a lot of the dice rolling. Not because I don't trust you, but because I feel that a lot of roll results need to be secret from the player. More often than not, this keeps you from blowing a roll at a critical time.

#6 Whenever I call for a roll, go ahead and remind me about any special modifiers you have to the TN from things like aptitude or smartlinks. I'll try to take everything into account, but I'll miss some things on occasion.

#7 I HATE open tests. They just don't reflect a persons skill level, IMO. So I replace all open tests with opposed tests vs. TN 4. For example, when making a stealth check, you roll your Stealth skill vs. TN 4 (+/- mods), and the opponent rolls his Perception vs. TN 4 (+/- mods). Whomever generates more successes wins the test.

As usual, any questions or comments can be posted here in this thread. Those of you who haven't sent me your final character draft, please do so ASAP.
