[X] My Assistant

[Bastard]

Sorry everyone, didnt see that thread...and then I got blitzed at work. Had to stab a few people.

[Tanka]

Stabbing people is always fun.

[Bastard]

yeah...unfortunately it was only in the arm

[BishopMcQ]

Please keep sigs and OOC comments out of the IC Thread.

[HeySparky]

Sorry to post in the middle of your conversation McQ and Bastard, wanted to get a post in for today though.

[BishopMcQ]

No worries...I try to put a header on each of my posts so people know who I'm talking to...

[Kremlin KOA]

Bastard, go and rewatch the first few scenes of Troy, then reread my post.

[BishopMcQ]

History is active...basically just a cut and paste from the IC commentary you guys put here. If anyone wants to add additional background, just let me know and I will put it in.

Also, the file.

[HeySparky]

Hey, Herne should get paid too! :)

[Bastard]

Kane too!


McQ---Dr McCoy--haha lmfao

[HeySparky]

Yeah, Kane too!

:)

I think I assumed that Gonzales sent the file to me and after rereading it doesn't look like he did, to me or Tiny. If that's the case assume the search was done after any agreement to join up. Cool?

[BishopMcQ]

Roll your computer:Search operations. If defaulting to Intelligence, throw that and let me know.

[HeySparky]

Oh boy... an earlier incarnation of Edana had Computer: Search Operations...

Defaulting to INT (6):

[toturi]

Bast, give me the meet location so I can meet up with the rest of the group.

[Bastard]

I sent you a message...included in the team

[BishopMcQ]

Sparky--Do you want the immediately obvious or are you perceiving in detail? If the latter, throw them bones...

[HeySparky]

Nothing exhaustive, the magic version of scanning the room, you know, sussing out the place. Things she would consider worthy of note - any spirits (other than Herne) to greet or keep an eye on; any patrons/proprietors with unusual auras.

[BishopMcQ]

Sparky--Most detail about auras comes from assensing them, otherwise I just tell you the obvious stuff, like astral perception etc. Let me know if you need more detail on something specific.

Team--As most of you have not been in my other forum games, I thought I'd go over a few basics that I left out before.

--Karma--Let's face it, your characters need it...so I hand out one point of karma to each person every Monday. When you hit 10/20 it rolls over to your karma pool, same as usual. I will also award extra karma to individuals who make me laugh, cry, or experience other strong emotions due to their posts or for exceptional RPing. Cash for Karma (and vice versa) is not available without arranging something with me.

--Improvement--Due to the nature of PbP games, I throw the training rules out the window. When you have accumulated enough karma, let me know that you are spending it on improving X skill. I will do my best to keep your sheets updated as a common reference point, so remind me if I forget to adjust your skill ratings.

--Feedback--Let me know how you are feeling, what you like and dislike, I won't mind if you say, "Dude, your game sucks!" as long as you tell me where/how you want me to change something. If you don't say anything, I will presume you are loving the game and don't want anything to change.

Questions, comments? Let me know.

Improvements - I don't know how you like the idea being the training type.
I use the following system when some one wants to imporve a skill or attrib.

Increase pistols from 4 to 5. Role you 4 dice for pistols at a target number of 5 if you get a success you get the skill at 5 once you have spent the karma you have set a side. No successes yields not improvement and you don't lose the Karma.

The person improving the skill would have had to use the skill in order to get the improvement. Its like ahnds on training, learning by your mistakes. Only down time yield training improvements.

[Johnson]

I would like to appologise to all the players as I didn't inform you or the GM that I don't spend time on the internet on the weekends. I have advisede McQ to take controll of Tiny on the weekends. Some saturdays I can reply and add posts.

Hope fully I will be able to post in the near future when I get a Telephone line. But that is under discussion with my wife.

Again my appologes, for inconviencing your PBP time.

[BishopMcQ]

Johnson:
No worries about the weekend posting, I only asked for M-F. In regards to training, I use it for my tabletop games, but because the pace of PbP is so much slower, I've decided to abandon the concept so that characters can actually have some growth over time.

[toturi]

Can JT or Gonzales brief the rest of the team in? Let's get this show on the road.

[Johnson]

They have been waiting for my response.

I finish up in 40 minutes of this post time. I will be back online for those 40 minutes and then tomorrow.

[Ecclesiastes]

Sorry for taking to long to post guys, I don't get much time online durring the weekends. Heh, at least it made for a cool enterance from me. ;)

[Bastard]

my next ic post will do that...busy at work right now though
