(IMG:style_emoticons/default/twirl.gif) (Time to upgrade my Response) Anyway, if anyone wanted it as a PDF until the official version is posted, here you go: http://rapidshare.com/files/211894337/sr-c...-21-2009_v1.pdf (140KB) |

HardSix--To be honest, I cheat. I update the log as the chat progresses and then it's a handful of keystrokes to have it here.

Hmmm. Looking like the Manhattan .pdf did not make it out today, as suggested. Bummer.

OK, first off, I put the Manhattan PDF in my wishlist for safekeeping. I'll grab it after I-CON 28.
Second, there's a FREE download of Everyone's Your Friend, the first muisson for the NYC campaign. I'm gonna have FUN reading this. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) And finally: DO NOT KILL OFF HARLEQUIN. Yes, he can be annoying, Macheavellian, charming, even downright helpful at times, but WHY get rid of such a great plot device? Leave him in the SR universe. He's a part of what makes SR, SR. You don't spoil the magician's act just because you don't like the act. |

This is a long running joke with me and the Shadowrun Dev's, going back to FASA and Mike Mulvihill. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) I don;t even have a plan or a story for it, I just someday want to be the guy that killed Harley. Probably hit him with a bus or something (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) |

Critter book is coming along. No one asked about it. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) a. Didn't ask because no matter what I do I can't get that stupid chat to refresh in any browser when devs start talking. b. I whine about it too much already and don't want to sound too needy. *smirk* |

Bull, you sadly wouldn't be the first team that hit an IE with a bus (or specifically an APC). Ask Jen about it sometime... Hehe. Nice (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) The Bus thing is also a long running joke. Back around the time YotC came out, we decided to do something a bit "different" with the Gen Con Tourney. It was a 3 round game, and in the first 2 rounds, the PCs had tracked down and then protected a SURGE victim. We thought it would be fun if in Round 3, one of the characters got replaced by the SURGE'd character. And we thought it would be an interesting cliffhanger if we ended the night by killing the one PC, and then giving them the SURGE character on round 3 as a replacement. Well, players being players, it's hard to ever get them to follow the plan, and one group just happened to be playing particularly clever, and they refused to put the character that was scheduled to die in harms way toward the end of the adventure, for one reason or another. They were playing very smart, and just were fouling up the couple ideas we'd given the GMs for how to kill them. So finally, one of the GMs got frustrated, and said "Ok, you're walking home after the run, you get hit by a bus and die. The End!" It was amusing, if a bit goofy. The player got extra credit for good roleplaying (It fit with the way he'd been playing the character the entire tourney), and we assured them it wasn't their fault and was simply part of the story... But "Hit by a bus" became a running joke with us for quite some time (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |

I am actually surprised that no-one asked about Holostreets, given the evidence that it is going to be available in the near future in the PDF of SR4A.

With a policy of we'll tell you when its ready and the fact that holostreets has been "in the works" for along time probably silences many questioners.

Speaking of chat stuff. A few chats ago there was mention of converting items from the German Arsenal to English. Even remember a list of items in question floating around on Dumpshock. Still gonna happen?
