[Titan]

Well Mulcarn, hopefully you aren't also behind one of the Puma 6 afflicted modems, the SurfBoard 6190 being the one most talked about (the one I am suffering through). Mine started really acting up after my ISP did some work in the area, so here's to wishing you a better situation than me.

As for the IC thread, I am going to have to respectfully ignore your latest response to what Titan sees. Unless the Chicago winds are strong enough to blow the Fly Spy back in time (IMG:style_emoticons/default/nyahnyah.gif) there is still time for the other characters to change the situation. Hell, for all I know Jaws may eat one or two. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

[Titan]

I PMed Gilga (Jaws) and Bastard (Karmakaze) and asked them to come back to the game.

I told them the same thing I'll mention here:
If nothing changes by 12:01am EST (4:01am GMT) Monday the 31st, I will continue posting as if time passed without them.

[Titan]

Sorry for the length of the IC post. This is what happens when I have too much time to write a post. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/nyahnyah.gif)

I deliberately ignored the Elf woman standing up against cover with a Salavette Guardian drawn filming the snow fall on knocked out ghouls. I'm hoping she went inside before the FlySpy flew over.

[Bastard]

Sorry... busy this weekend at work and my wife is sick so I have been taking care of the kid when I get home.

[Titan]

No problem. Life happens.

Besides, it looks as if Mulcarn is AWOP again... I wonder if this is going to be a weekly thing for a while? Anyway, it looks like the rocky start will continue.

piloting ground craft to meet.

http://orokos.com/roll/537710#

[Mulcarn]

Good news, I'm still alive. Bad news, I'm still alive.

[Titan]

Good to see you again.

I wrote a post last night that I was going to put up today, but I'll hold on to it for a day or two to see how things shake out so I can modify it as needed.

[Titan]

Looks like Mulcarn did the weekly surface, ping, dive deep, run silent routine again.

Well, with Bastard painting the rest of the group into a corner moving game time up to the meet time, I went ahead and modified my post I wrote Thursday to get us all into the same physical space (roughly) and time index (roughly) so we can all kick back and wait for the GM to pick up the threads together.

Speaking of which, @Mulcarn, there are a bunch of rolls in my posts. Do not feel obligated to respond to each roll. Only do so if there is something important or off from what would be expected. Example: The perception checks on the outside of Chicago's Own. I don't need to know details, but if I call up that info later I can say I took the time to get it.

Finally, @Saytr: I'm surprised no one mentioned this before, but your character is a different edition than everyone elses. If you and Mulcarn are okay with it, I don't have any issue. But, for the most part, your dice pools will be smaller than the rest of us. You might want to check with Mulcarn on the next surfacing. And let me know if my assumption of 5e is wrong. I would want to adjust to 4e if that is what the game is. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

[Derfmancher]

My character is 5e as well.. is this not a 5e game? If so, I will have no idea whats going on, or what the differences are.

[Jack_Spade]

Nope, 5e all the way.
Hadn't peeked at Satyr's chara before - maybe Mulcarn should add the appropriate tag to the thread to avoid further confusion.

[Bastard]

Well, with Bastard painting the rest of the group into a corner moving game time up to the meet time, I went ahead and modified my post I wrote Thursday to get us all into the same physical space (roughly) and time index (roughly) so we can all kick back and wait for the GM to pick up the threads together

My time stamps have been continuous. (#24, #31) Didn't mean to paint you into a corner. If you would have asked I could have modified my posts. Or if others time stamped as well, we could have been consistent. No need for the passive aggressive call out.

[Titan]

Well, you didn't paint me into a corner. Like I said, you painted everyone else into a corner, cutting off any further character interaction until Mulcarn could respond.

And, nothing passive aggressive about it. I called you out plain and simple. Perhaps you saw passive aggressive only because that is your style?

[Bastard]

You simply could have asked me to edit my time stamps for more time. When I bumped up to 2325, GM was back and looking to move us forward.

[Titan]

This may be hard for you to believe, but your timestamps don't mean a thing to me. That is because my characters actions weren't tied to anyone else. I could have continued my plan to post one, or maybe two more times, but instead I voluntarily crunched all of that into a single post after your incredibly dick move of cock blocking four other players.

Even if you did the right thing after I called you on your douchebaggery, and moved back your time stamps for the other players, it wouldn't change a thing with my posts. Other than moving it up a week or two in real time, everything else would work out almost the same for Titan.

[Mulcarn]

Alright I guess I better intervene here before things deteriorate even more. Let me try to answer your questions and correct any misunderstandings in order as I see them.

@Titan - I've taken note of your Piloting and Perceptions rolls. I'm in the middle of compiling details of what he sees and the threshold for your Piloting tests weren't very high at all so you passed with ease. Matrix Perception is going to be a different bag of tricks all together but i'll let you know what you've gotten so far in my next IC post.

@Satyr/All - This is indeed a 5e game only. Meaning all characters, PCs and NPCs will be made using 5e. I may take on inspiration from 4e but I won't be actually using anything from it. Cause then it'd be a house rule at that point. When you have the time could you please remake Split using 5e chargen.

@Jack - Hmmmm, duly noted. I'll see if I can tag this as 5e later.

@Bastard/Titan - PCs who want to time stamp their posts for a sense of temporal consistency is all fine in my book. But I don't consider it to be a mandate nor do I desire it to be one. Lets also not resort to childish name calling shall we. This game is very much in it's infancy and i'm still feeling everyone and everything out and constructing my plans based on those feelings.

@All - For clarification, it's currently 11:25 PM right now with you all gathered inside waiting for the soon-to-arrive Johnson.

[Bastard]

@Bastard/Titan - PCs who want to time stamp their posts for a sense of temporal consistency is all fine in my book. But I don't consider it to be a mandate nor do I desire it to be one. Lets also not resort to childish name calling shall we. This game is very much in it's infancy and i'm still feeling everyone and everything out and constructing my plans based on those feelings.

Again, I apologize. I did not mean to destroy the space-time continuum with my timestamps. I misunderstood where everyone was and simply trying to catch my character up to everyone else. I meant no disrespect to anyone, nor was I intentionally trying to fuck up anyone's game play.

It isn't uncommon for there to be miscommunication PbP games, but it can easily be rectified. If there are any problems with any of my future posts, just ask me directly to clarify or edit.

[Titan]

While passing the time:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aXhjp85UNJI

I figure I'll start editing my old IC posts and moving the rolls to OOC posts and cross link them. I think that will clean up my posts a bit and make it more readable. So consider this a heads up that I'll likely be adding a few posts to this OOC thread, without any new content really.

[Derfmancher]

I would be posting a response to the 4000 value, however, I appear to have only saved the password to my dice roller at work >.<

[Titan]

But that would mean you are gaming from work... And that couldn't be happening, right? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/nyahnyah.gif)

Titan closed the commcall and sighed.

"Northside..." he thought, "that is on the other side of Chicago from here. Normally I could make the drive in about a half hour, but with this weather all the ‘grid huggers’ vehicles will be going extra slow. And my normal driving will draw far too much attention… Now it will take closer to an hour and a half than half an hour."

The Dwarf stretched and yawned. He then accessed his PAN.

Titan shifted his attention to his PAN again.

I goofed on the roll, it should be Intuition not Logic, but in Titans' case they are the same value.

I’ll take all information I can get, but I am looking for the following in this order:
1) Location / Address / Coordinates – if I do not already have them.
2) Business hours – are they even open at 11:30pm? Or is this going to be a parking lot meet?
If they are open, then the following:
2a) What is the appropriate attire? I (the player) guess it is ‘dress down’ but it might be Demolition Man Taco Bell style here.
2b) All I can find on the building layout. Exits, primarily.
2c) The best food to order.
2d) Then the following as well, if possible

3) Area Security: Responders, and expected response times.

Let me know if I need to do additional extended test rolls.

Titan called up the AR controls for his SUV. He made sure the four wheel drive was engaged and eased out onto the street.

Driving test: http://orokos.com/roll/532678 12d6t5: 4

Assuming off road handling of 3, +1 for driving via AR.

"That's... Odd," Titan mused as he climbed up to the front seat. "There is almost no social media on Chicago's Own..."

Titan programmed the address into the autopilot, and let it plot the course.

"No reviews, good or bad. No MeFeed wannabe food critics stating how the food should be... At least it will be near closing time. No need to change into better clothes."

He tried the search again to make sure it wasn't just a Matrix glitch.

A deep crease formed on the Dwarfs’ forehead when the so-called results came back. He mentally “tapped” the AR display and caused it to flutter, but it failed to reveal less foolish results.

"Bah! I’ll have to run diagnostics later. For now, the highway calls." Titan pulled the Universal Connector Cord from the base of his skull and plugged it in to the center console. "Ghouls, heh." he smirked as his pulse altered slightly to keep time with the rhythm of the pistons. His toes and feet tingled as if he was walking barefoot in a pristine wheat field. He felt a warm breeze on his face, even though it was bitter cold outside. He had slid into the machine.

[ Spoiler ]

Even though page 452 of the Core book states that the Control Rig adds its’ rating to a vehicles speed, I’m going to assume that is just for Limits. I find it hard to believe a vehicle can travel 4 times faster when Titan is jumped into it (although, I consider that a fault of the Speed chart, not the rule).

With that said, Jumped In, Hot and increasing speed to approximately 50 mph.

The semi conscience Dwarf grinned as the music played inside his head, and he felt the vehicle claw its’ way along the road.

Titan reluctantly climbed out into the real world as he switched back to AR and parked the SUV a block or three away. He mentally ran a pre-flight check on the small wasp like drone in the back. When it all checked out, he throttled up and it leapt a few inches off the floor of the car and hovered. He set an alarm on his commlink to text his Control Rig 'Ware at 11:15pm, then lowered the drivers' side rear window and piloted the drone out of the SUV. He quickly closed the window once it was clear.

Once again his eyes glazed over, and his facial muscles went slack as he slid into the drone.

The drone fluttered off into the night to begin the first of several sweeps around the Pizzeria scoping it out

I couldn't find anything about wind affecting aircraft piloting rolls, but I am going to assume that it causes difficulties anyway. I may be shortchanging Titan a bit. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/nyahnyah.gif)

Titan grunted as the little drone was battered, and perhaps a bit bruised, by the cold Chicago winds blowing outside.

The odd sight of six robed figures slowly being buried by snow in the lot causes Titan to momentarily forget why he was even piloting a drone in the area.

~/ispy_flyspy $ record –still –count 5 ispy_flyspy.camera /ispy_flyspy/storage

[ Spoiler ]

Take some stills of the ghouls sleeping in the snow.

"Gotta be some partiers passed out. Naw. Someone would have called the city on them by now, judging by the snow covering them. Must be some art exhibition…"

Titan shook off the mental cobwebs the strange image cast about his mind, and got back to work. The drone whisked off to the left and began circling the pizzeria in a wide pattern.

[ Spoiler ]

Let us try this again…
Assuming 1 point of Noise due to range for circling Chicago’s Own.

Jumped In, Hot
Pilot Aircraft (Remote Operation): 6d6t5: 2
Perception: 8d6t5: 2
Memory: 10d6t5: 3 !!REDO!! I rolled the wrong dice (d5’s instead of 6’s) on the previous roll: FUBAR roll

"This ain’t no pizzeria. It is a frakkin’ jail!" Titan snapped a few more stills of the building as he circled. "A delivery truck? This late at night?"

Note: Titans’ former life didn’t have delivery trucks arriving at night. I (the player) am aware that food delivery can happen late at night, more usually ungodly early in the morning… But Titan is unaware.

~/ispy_flyspy $ record stop

Titan checked the chrono. "Time for one more pass." He swung the drone around for another circle.

[ Spoiler ]

One last pilot roll to get home. No noise for this one.

Pilot Aircraft (Remote Operation): 7d6t5: 2

As the FlySpy came into range of the Sidewinder, Titan shifted to AR and called up the SUV controls as well. With a few mental commands, the window lowered for the drone to fly in and the window closed again.

The Dwarf climbed in back as he landed the drone. He attached a datachip (Gray Platinum Crocodile) to the drone, and downloaded the photos and video he recorded.

"Time to get ready for the meet."

Titan rebooted everything to shake off any digital leeches he may have picked up, then proceeded to prep his gear.

Assuming 1 point of Noise due to range for circling Chicago’s Own.

Jumped In, Hot
Pilot Aircraft (Remote Operation): 6d6t5: 2
Perception: 8d6t5: 2
Memory: 10d6t5: 3 !!REDO!! I rolled the wrong dice (d5’s instead of 6’s) on the previous roll: FUBAR roll



Take some detailed video of the truck, trying to focus on company name, truck id, and the driver – if possible.

Note: Titans’ former life didn’t have delivery trucks arriving at night. I (the player) am aware that food delivery can happen late at night, more usually ungodly early in the morning… But Titan is unaware.



Continuing 1 point of Noise due to range for circling Chicago’s Own.
