As for Xel Naga and Hidden-Shadow, I sent them PMs and told them we needed to communicate further before they could play the game. If possible, I might work them into the plot, since the purpose was to help people learn the game and/or new character types and rules.
Does anyone want to do any actions between now and the meeting? Call any contacts, etc? If not, then I'll move us up to the Jack of all Spades. |

i actually know those 2 in real life.
Ive known Xel Naga for 5-6years and Hidden Shadow for about 4. Thier actually my friends in real life. The reason why i pmed you is becuase they dont own any rule books. All they have is the NSRCG. Shadowrun isnt like the d20 system becuase the d20 system has a srd you can download that gives all the core rules for free and i know these 2 people well enough that they will be too lazy to even get the quick start rules. I'm not saying that i dont want them to play but i didnt invite them or make them post in our game. They did that of thier own accord. |

I gave them until the 19th to send me a sheet. If they send me a sheet, I'll probably let them play -- if only because the purpose of the game is to help people learn the system. Hell -- maybe they'll buy the BBB if they like the game.

I've received sheets from Hidden-Shadow and Xel-Naga. I'll let them play, but I'm going with what Hidden-Shadow posted on the IC thread. They heard about the job by over hearing someone else mentioning it. They don't have an appoitment but they are going to see what they can learn first hand.
I would prefer, since they're new at this, that the old-timers (you know who you are) swallow some of that paranoia that would usually have caused my characters to take them out back and shoot them in the barrens some where for dropping in unanounced at a meet. We're all just trying to learn here :) |

Just a quick question here: exactly what would l=you like me to post OOC for "decking"? I know you said you would do all the rolling so do you want a "I log on and use [X] program to perform [Y function]" or "Please roll for me to Log On" ?
Oh, and "no shooting the newbs". Got it. :) This post has been edited by kevyn668: Feb 18 2004, 07:21 PM |

Sorry, Dash. I didn't read you're IC post before my own. I see how works now. Good set up, BTW. Is that yours or did you pick it up from someone?

I made it up at about <insert time of that ic post here>. I'm glad you like it. It's a modification of the way Grey ran his game Matrix Misfits. There, we all did our own ooc rolling and put it in spoiler tags on the IC thread ... made it easy to know what people were doing. So, I adapted that idea to posting the rolls for actions taken IC in our little learning experience here.
As for things you want to do, if you have a specific thing you want to do (i.e. browse for files or something) you can just post either on this thread or in spoiler tags on the IC thread. Then, I can either get hints from your IC post, or look hear for a description of what you want to do, and I'll post the rolls, TN's, etc. on the IC thread. That way we can all learn from what the others are doing, too. |

Yup -- I don't have a problem with that at all. I haven't really noticed anything yet that would indicate anything, but that's okay. I understand your need to keep me informed, and I appreciate it :)

I moved us forward -- things have seemed to slow as we run out of conversation to make, so I pushed us up to the meet.
Xel Naga, I haven't gotten a character approved from hidden-shadow yet. So, he's not yet ready to go. Since he's missed the deadline, but you didn't, would you still like to play or are you out as well? |

Also, Kevyn, If you want to do more on the matrix host, then let me know. We can keep that running as a sideline to the meet if necessary.

Okay. For all intents and purposes, let's just say that Xel Naga is another member of the team. He is contacted by Silent with the information just as Alelarith, Mallard and Hook were. That way we don't need to re-work the timeline and I don't have to insert him into the meet for some odd reason. He's been seperate from you guys up until this point but meets you all at the Jack of all Spades probably coming in about the same time as Mallard did. |

Alelarith and Silent seem to be getting along nicely.
Dont get the wrong idea alelarith is just a person that likes to be close to people that are important to her whether this is a good or bad thing is yet to be seen although she may or may not have feelings for silent. |

:oops: Riiiight.. it's all in character. I think Mana Child is trying to throw Jimmy off guard with Alelarith's actions and make him let something slip. |
