Done.

Add me to por favor.. clegz00

Done.

Roll call for AIM names!

<-

Underlines, dashes, anything?

No, sir.

Alright.. So yeah, is this the first chapter thing or whatever you want to call it? For this sake we will refer to it as the first day we are playing? Also, what the hell is midwestern standard time?

If pacific time is gmt-8 then midwest (central) is gmt-6. Central Europe (france, germany) is gmt+1, eastern Australia is gmt+10, and China is gmt+8.

BTW, I have never heard it called midwestern standard time before now, I've always known it as central time.

Alright so, I'm in Phoenix, Get on at 11.

Yes, you'll get on at 11.

I think we're gaming this Sunday. Submit your character sheets before then, please.

Also, I forgot to mention, every BP will buy you 7500 .

Oh, and another thing, you'll get karma for writing fiction regarding your characters.

Oh, and here are some new rules regarding TM cyberware. If you buy pre-crash cyberware at chargen, you won't get resonance reduction. The caveat is that pre-crash cyberware costs twice as much money.

Does precrash cyberware cost twice as much if you bought it precrash or does the price increase after the crash?

Also, my sheet in in excel format. That isn't very friendly to simple text posting. Do you have an example of a forum posted sheet for me to convert mine too?

Here's an example of a forum-posted character, courtesy of McQuillan over at the Welcome to the Shadows board. Just click on the spoiler tag. Hope that helps.

Precrash cyberware costs twice as much if you bought it precrash. And if you change it at all, you lose resonance.

Precrash means pre december 2059, right? That means I'll have to put a couple more bp into equipment.

edi: and yes, that link helps.

Thanks for your character sheets, dudes.

And Yoippari, AIM name?

Thought you had it from my previous post. kindolarmand .

Oh, yeah.

Also, I hope you can receive voice in your AIM. If not, download the latest version here.

Oh, and here are my rules for aspected magicians:

10 BP.

Free initiation grade at chargen.

Can't use summoning, or can't use spellcasting. Choose one.

Is this gonna get started or what? It's 10:52 AM my time right now.. I don't see anyone..

Okay.. THere they are.

Well, that was a fun session. We should totally do it again.

Yeah.

I liked how it brought out my storytelling capacity.

I thought your friend was a little gay.

Crap, I missed the session. By the time I was awake and got my caffine the game should have been well underway. It sounds like it was fun. Should I assume there is another session next sunday and that there will be an appropriate time to add another character?

Yeah.. Especially if your good with Longarms.. Hot damn that would be so useful..

Longarms 6 specialty shotguns. I guess I could use something like a rifle or... whatever the other long gun is. I'm gonna go check on that.

Since this is my first shadowrun character and it is using varient char gen rules I'm not sure if that 6 points is really amazing (like RAW) or if it is just so-so with an absolute max of 12 points.

BTW, what is the policy of asking about character/gear stats when in theory the other players shouldn't know your exact capabilities?

Score! He has longarms!

In the short term, that's the highest you can go without Aptitude. In the long run, it's so-so compared to Annie Oakley.

The level you're at is Marines sniper, so you're good to go until you fight the Red Samurai.

So... what should I change about how I handled things last night, besides the AIM clusterfuck? Was I too slow? Anything I could do better?

I did the skills with the idea that a 9 is the new 6 (this doesn't mean I put 6 in every skill I have). Emo, if you have any comments on my character stats to fit with plausability or character background I'd like to hear them.

Bah, plausibility?

Ah, ok, one of those kind of games.

Dude, where the fuck have you been? Of course it's one of those games. It's one of MY games!!!

I've not been here. As in I found this site something like a week and a half ago.

Now I'm curious, what was the problem with your character when it is one of "those" games?

...? Well let's hope that we can actually have more than three people on this time.. Still using mIRC?

Definitely. And a friend from college is coming on, too, if the spirits are willing.

This sunday? Which time here in germany?

For you, Grinder, it's 7:00 p.m. Log on to #shadowrun@irc.gamesurge.net with mIRC. If you give me your AIM name, I can walk you through the process before the game.

And clegrady, could you make the room maybe 30 minutes early? I don't know how to do it.

I'll install AIM the next days.
I don't know if I can make it at 7pm, I'll have an Iron Kingdoms game at sunday. But I'll see what I can do.

What if we move it to Saturday? Does that mesh with everybody?

Yes! Yeah and I got the channel registered..

I don't know yet, sorry. I'll have an Eberron game on that game. Sorry that I make it so complicated, but my timetable is usually very tight.
But if I can join saturday a little later, like 8.30 pm here, it should work.
