Good job keeping the game going, btw. If you have any clarification or questions, just ask. I'm monitoring, just didn't think my input was necessary just yet.

OK. Let me know when you have a chance to respond to the email I sent to you on Sept 22 about my character and let me know what you think.

Just in case you didn't notice, WinterRat, I've posted on the Shadowland thread as part of my search in Salvation. I hope that's all right by you.

No, that's awesome, that's what it's there for! I'll post a response to you there (not tonight, must sleep) but you can find a response there. Great job using it! :)

Sedna, will get that contact sheet to you ASAP. It's my bad, I should have it to you by now. Actually, character will get done tonight. Sybersnake and Dragon are actually very close (Lv. 2 contact). Below is a copy of their primary interaction from The Warehouse Job (pg. 5) if you're interested. You did a great job, this is definitely not a criticism. If anything, it's my fault for not giving you anything to work with earlier about what they're like. Anyway, here's something you can examine and see, and I'll have details for you later this evening. Feel free to edit (or not) your post as you feel appropriate. Whether you do or not, I'll write in a way that responds and portrays their relationship as appropriate.

QUOTE
Dragon nods. "Good point. All right, I'll see you guys back here at 11 then. If anyone wants me to ask my friend anymore questions, let me know. See you all later."

Dragon exits the warehouse and heads home to one of his safehouses, making sure that he is not being followed.

En route, he calls up his decker friend, Sybersnake. An attractive Latina with a dark tan and long black hair popped up in his image link. She gave a wide smile when she saw who it was.

"Hey Syber, what's up? I was wondering if you had time to do me a little favor? I'm doing a little research on this company, and I was wondering if you could grab some of their files for me?"

Her smile turned playful, and she pretended to examine her nails while ignoring him for a few seconds. "Hmm...well I'm pretty busy right now, but I might be able to squeeze you into my agenda. How much time you think it'll take?"

"Not too long, I just need some blueprints, building layouts, nothing too heavy."

Sybersnake paused for a moment, and pretended to think. Then she playfully rolled her eyes and replied, "Shouldn't be too bad. OK, give me specifics."

Dragon grinned. "Thanks chummer, I appreciate it." He gives her the name of the company and the address of the warehouse, then continues, "I don't need much, what I'm looking for are mainly blueprints of the building, layouts of the property. In particular, any details on the security system, especially whether or not they have an active rigger on site or if they are running CCSS. Also, any non-standard access points, such as sewer, electrical, ventilation, you get the idea. Any other security protocols or security services or providers would be useful as well. You don't have to look for it, but if you can find it, anything on who this company belongs to would be a plus. You catch all that?"

"Null sheen. I got it. When do you need it back by?"

"I'm meeting my team in about eight hours, so any time before that is good. Can you do it?"

Looking appropriately indignant, she pretended to be exasperated as she replied, "Can I do it? Of course I can do it. Duh."

"OK OK. Will you do it?"

"Weeeeeellll..." Before she could get into her weaseling tone of voice she got when she wanted something and was just playing with him, he interrupted, "Yes yes, same thing. Dinner at your choice of location and menu."

She arched an eyebrow at him. "And I'll dress up." She continued to arch her eyebrow at him without moving it. He always wondered how she did that. With a exaggerated pained grimace, he added, "In a suit."

"Yay!" Sybersnake laughed and clapped her hands and tossed her hair back delightfully. "I love how you always play these little games with me. You're so patient."

Giving her a smile, he replied, "You're worth it. So you'll do it then?"

"Of course. All right, give me a few. I'll see you later. And your suit better be clean!" She pretended to admonish him with her finger.Laughing, Dragon answered, "Don't worry, it will be. Thanks a lot for this. I appreciate it."

"You better." She grinned at him.

"I do," he smiled back. "I'll see you later. Take care."

"Catch you in a few," she replied as she hung up. Breaking the connection, Dragon continued home.

Thanks, very helpful! Maybe just some slight editing then, to bring more of her personality across: but the essence of the info will remain the same. I still leave it up to you (in your next post, perhaps) whether or not they have ever meat-body met, whether that's appropriate ... or whether this is to be the first time?

Edit: Done. Better? :)

I've finally gotten everything in order and am back posting here. . . many apologies for my lacking participation. Also just as a forewarning I will be out of town from Friday evening until Sunday morning attending the wedding of two friends.

Sorry, guys, but the computer ate the original post in its entirety [/pain], so I had to recreate it from scratch. That's about half of it, all I could get done in today's time. Other half tomorrow.

Paul, my bad man, I totally apologize for the lateness of that post. I got a little caught up in catching up with my own posts and somehow on my list of things to do, the response got lost in the shuffle. If I am delaying on a post or whatever, by all means, please give me a bump, especially if it looks like I forgot. I certainly wasn't ignoring you. Again, I apologize. Hope no hard feelings. :)

As a general rule of thumb, I allow/request players to write the introductory post to a new situation unless it is specifically requested that I write it. So in this particular context, Shev and Paul, I'd like you guys to write the introductory post introducing yourselves to the locales you intend on going to.

It gives me an idea of not only what you're doing, but how, and saves me asking questions like, "Are you doing any surveillance? What time do you want to get there? What are you dressed like? What are you carrying with you? What do you look for? Are you giving the guy the password?" And so on. If there are any issues with that, please let me know.

In general, this thread is based on the idea of player participation, so I am deliberately holding off on GM intervention and allowing all of you to control the flow of the activities in which your characters are involved to a large extent. Did that all make sense?

A GENERAL CALL FOR RESPONSE
Would you all like to see more, less, or about the same level of GM interaction and involvement on my part? I am starting to feel like I have not posted enough, but you all were in a meet, carrying the action very well, and there wasn't much need for me to say or do anything.

So if you would like me to post more or involve myself more in the lives of your characters, please tell me. As you can see from my own posts, I'm hardly adverse to long or frequent posting, I just was uncertain how much you all expected/wanted additional complications (read: life) on the part of your characters.

I think it's fine. I'm quite enjoying myself, and the player/player interaction is quite interesting.

I'm good. I wasn't sure how you wanted to do the club. How much description do you want us to post? I'm not sure the kind of image you have in mind for the bar. If you can PM us a rundown of what the place is like if we have to go there, that's be great. I think that in a situation like this, it's generally safe to assume that the character will sniff around the place a bit for anything really suspicious.

Shev, seeing as how you played the game, I trust you to have a reasonably accurate view of it in mind. alternatively, you can just post showing up and checking it out, and I'll take it from there. It takes a little longer, but in this situation either is fine, it really doesn't matter.

Which I unfortunately do not have. Blame the accursed slow distribution process. Just try to describe it as best you can, and send me any relevant details you feel are necessary to be included.
