OOC: Emerald City Nights, We're not in Kansas anymore... Options

[Sedna]

Most likely the keys then -- it's a prank, not intended seriously or to harm as such, Steve knows from (annoyed) experience that the item will be returned when it's missed. We can probably work this out ourselves, see if the theft is noticed: opposed roll Perception vs. Stealth, nothing to lower TN on my side?

[ Spoiler ]

Stealth: 13, 3, 2 (!)
Cheating: 10, 3, 1 (probably not sufficient for an extra success)
Your choice as to whether we add in the spirit's Concealment power to the Perception TN, considering they're acting as a tag-team.

(And we wonder why I gave Kai a minor "Bad Reputation" (thief) :grinbig: )

[Slipshade]

Good news real life is allowing me a little more time and seeing that this game moves along at a bit of a slower pace I will be able to join again if everyone thinks that would be ok. Let me know how you guys feel about it.

OK, if I understand the rules correctly (maybe) I roll three die for Steve's Intelligence, against a base TN of 4. I also would give a +2 for being distracted. (swarmed)
Unmodified die rolls:
1, 1, 4.
Gak, one of my 'death dice' from that other game.
I guess Kai gets the keys.
BUT NOT MY PERMISSION TO DRIVE!!! :eek:

[Sedna]

He doesn't even know where you parked your car! (Let's hope this gets all the bad rolls out of the way before it gets serious.)

(Slipshade, I'm okay with it, if you don't mind a little chaos :) )

[Thomas]

Not to worry, THAT die is now back with its oddly-shaped brethern, in the former Crown Royal bag. I've borrowed one from the backgammon set - not the white ones, those are best reserved for Acey-Deucey. ;)
FYI - IC post - car is two blocks west, green Honda-GM 3220 Turbo, Kai's seen it before.

@Slipshade
Please do join us if you can. Steve will need someone to hold Kai down. :evil:

[Sedna]

Besides, what would he want with your car? He's got a very reliable and probably expensive skateboard -- and he's off towards your restaurant, just as soon as he can get the word to the others clear of The Suit 8)

Come to think of it, your signature is suddenly very (uncomfortably) apt.

[Thomas]

Then you should know that one of MY favorite lines from “Heavy Metal” is:

[ Spoiler ]

…Hangin’s too GOOD for ‘em…Burnin’s too GOOD for ‘em – He should be torn into little, itsy-bitsy pieces, and BURIED ALIVE…

But that’s just me, and in fun – Steve’s not me, and I’ll try to play him the way he is. (But, I don’t carry anything in my back pants pockets either)

[Sedna]

Now that we've both clarified that this is just in fun, I guess we're just waiting for Viper and Johnson, and we can start planning this thing :)

(Huh -- I just discovered that I had one more die I could have rolled. Forgot to add in a physad power. Future reference, for the important stuff.)

[Thomas]

I hope DH will give us the 411 on the job, everything the charming and eloquent Mr. J could squeeze out of the contact, in one lump sum.
I'll post a flavor message tomorrow, but nobody needs to wait on me.
The kitchen and tables at Seoul Food are a public secret. It's not licenced by the board of health.
Unless DH wants to take over Seoul Food I'll play it - you guys can cue off of me. It's dingy-looking, smells funny to westerners, and Korean is the primary language. Unless your char can read Hangul don't ask for a menu.

[Slipshade]

I'll wait for a reply from DH before I start posting again.

Slip

[Slipshade]

Just re-read through the OOC thread fully, so I won't wait for DH to answer. I will post something on Monday to get me back into the team. If he wants me out later DH can kill me off. :D

[Thomas]

@Slip
I hope Johnson's got call waiting/forwarding/voicemail on that thing. ;)

@Bastard
Come on, pick up... (ring, ring)

[Slipshade]

Heh, true, though my call can come in at anytime before or after yours. :)

Or I can get the answering machine and leave a nasty message for him. :D


Slip

[Slipshade]

I thought you were done with the negotiations Bastard.

Glide would have dialed someone else if she thought the meet was still on.

[Bastard]

oh well..

Im just waiting on mr. johnson to say youre hired

[Slipshade]

We'll work around it. :)

[Bastard]

thats what im doin
:D

[Slipshade]

I will be on vacation from May 30-June 6. I am not sure how much internet time I will have.

Slip

[Thomas]

@Slip
I hope you have a great time, enjoy.
I'm sure that with DH being at sea and the game moving slowly there should be no problems. I'd guess that you'd want to make the planning session at Seoul Food?
(Assuming that the others even want to?) I nominate Sedna to write you in during your absence. (Kai could use a friend :evil: )

Any one else have opinions/options?

[Bastard]

That works for me...but does my opinion matter? :|

[Thomas]

[Thomas]

Ring, ring
Hello, is your refrigerator running? ... Well you'd better go catch it! <click> :rotfl:
Bastard?

[Bastard]

Sorry Thomas...I didnt see your ring ring too. :(

As for my refrigerator, I will have to check...

oh yes it is, as is my dishwasher as well, and my AC.

[Sedna]

Groan :D :grinbig: :D

I'm okay with the choices made. I'm a bit sporadic myself, these days until mid-June (every two or three days), but on this thread it doesn't seem to show.

I'd thought you were done with the negotiations too, Bastard. Oh well, just figure that Kai wouldn't have approached him until after he's clear of the negotiations, work it from there. We seem to be flexible, and DH will hopefully give us all the details in a single major post when he's next at an on-line computer.

[Slipshade]

No Sedna, I trust ya. Post for Glide if you think it is needed when I am gone next week. Besides I think Kai and Glide probably have a lot in common. She is starting to think of him as the little brother she never had. :)
