Sure it can rain. It will be hot and humid when it rains, just as it is when it doesnt. The temp will drop a few degrees though, while the mugginess gives way to the coolness of the warm rain.
Post your itinerary OoC first though. |

Up river till about 16:00 local time. Sugar and Duster can drive the skiff during the day, up and up Kourou-river. Then make camp some 100-200 m from the rivers shore preferably on some high ground (this is the rain season afterall). Kliko and Bubba haul the skiff some 10-20 meters inland tieing it to a trunk and covering it up with part of the camo-netting we brought along.
Kliko is somewhat concerned about the state of some of their high-tech electronics in this humidity, but hopefully the plastic seals hold. By 18:00 Kliko will make a last round to check teammies' hammock, musquito nets and tarp(against the rain) setups, doing the briefing they "check your boots and clothing for scorpions and centipedes when you get up" briefing. Sugar and Duster take first watch, Kliko and Ludi second, Bubba and Hausmann third. Four hour watches, 7:00 we leave our camp site and move further up river. Repeat until day 3 which is a resting day. From day 4 onwards we'll be moving down river again so we can release Hausmann at the morning of day 5. -EDIT- We better have arranged a troll modified hammock for Bubba (IMG:style_emoticons/default/embarrassed.gif) |

Thought I should mention a few things concerning Ludi's actions. I'll write an actual post soon, but I wanted to get everything jotted down OOC first.
So, first things first: as soon as they hit their cache, Ludi will ran Hausmann over with her with her R5 Bug Scanner. While they're in the jungle, she'll link her radio scanner to her datajack and keep it running. She'll also keep her jammer in her combat load vest, just in case they get jumped by anyone. She'll also keep tabs on her own vitals by strapping her biomonitor to her forearm. Since she's pretty new to the jungle, she's probably not used to loosing so much water... and hopefully, the biomonitor will prevent her from forgetting to drink (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) |

-EDIT- We better have arranged a troll modified hammock for Bubba (IMG:style_emoticons/default/embarrassed.gif) Yeah, its called the jungle floor! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rotfl.gif) The humidity should not ruin your electronics. I had no problem with mine while I was in the Philippines jungles, in March. As long as they are not submerged or left out to be rained on for extended periods. For your IC posts, Hausmann is going to be rather confused. He is not going to have a clear memory of what is going on or who he is. It is there, but it is more like a dream than actual memories to him. So when you NPC him, keep that in mind. You guys are all going to constantly be warm, and covered in sweat, which I will explain below. You guys are going to always be thirsty, so remembering to drink enough water wont be as important as having enough water. ... From your pre-mission studies of French Guiana you remember a few things: One of the biggest problems with a high humidity climate is that sweat does not evaporate, thus not cooling the body as it should. You have to be aware of how much water and salts you are losing due to your body over sweating to try and over compensate. Salt, in the form of sports drinks is best, as salt tablets tend to be too much for a short stay and often make users sick, and have the reverse than desired effect of dehydrating the user. Bugs, with their stings, poisons and carried diseases, are not the only threat. There are also large predators, some of them who do not know man enough to fear him. ... I look forward to your posts. |

Man, you'd figure by 2062 they'd invent something to IV salt solutions through your auto-injector (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cyber.gif) . I'm glad Kliko brought a towel on his packing list.
I'll wait for Ludi and/or Bastard before posting. I don't know whether the Bastard has more suprises up his sleave or whether we'll have an easy ride. Best keep those machetes close in case some jungle cougar or puma thinks we're breakfast. |

I have nothing to post IC until I get an OoC list of what you guys have planned for the week.
From there I will let you know how far ahead you can post your IC. |

Can you specify what kind of info you're looking for? |

I will check. My main com is still down (I think I put a wire in the wrong place), so I was going off of memory. I had thought I had Kliko hire the team through Jaxx, but you could be correct, and thus I may have to do some major editing to my previous IC. If you are correct, I sincerely apologize, and I will do my best to not let that happen again. However, if you are wrong, you will be destroyed. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/vegm.gif)

Like I was telling Kliko earlier; the fact that it was Jaxx calling was either:
A) OMG WTF BASTARD IS HUMAN B) OMG WTF WE HAVE BEEN SET UP THE BOMB MAKE YOUR TIME Ok, I didn't actually SAY that, but that was pretty much the feeling I was going for. Yea... ok.... I'll shut up. |
