Boxes? You mean the lines before and after numbers?

Hey, it works! Thanks a lot!

The boxes usually means your computer doesn't know the symbols. I don't have mIRC, is the /i think a mIRC command or is it a standard irc command? because when I type either /i you posted I press enter and nothing shows up in the chat box. The status window does put out:
[20:54] *** :Gigenet.IL.GameSurge.net 421 Kindol_Armand i :Unknown command

Well.. You first have to put the whole kid into the alias editor and then you have to be in a channel.. than you type /i message.. And where message is you put what you want..

Umm... huh?

I have never used irc so I don't know the terminology. I don't even know what the /i does.

What I'm looking at in my connection options is a server alias, the server address which irc.gamesurge... works with, nickname, user name, and user info. So what is the alias editor?

What are you talking about?

Well, whether or not you're able to read it, you should be able to input it by copying and pasting it, anyway, right?

Where do I put it?

I tried just copying the /i line right into the chat pane and I got the error I described above.

make a new line in the scripts editor.

ok, I got it to work in mIRC. I was hoping to be able to use trillian for everything but I can't find scripts anywhere in it. Oh well.

BTW, in light of reading what exactly certain items do is it to late to modify my starting equipment?

If I were more experienced I would probably be asking about the availability of various things from raygun's site, but I think I want to keep it simple for now. In a run or two I may seeing if I can mount a PTRS on my Comet though .

It's not too late.

Ya, sniper rifle assault cannons that do 20S and ignore soft armor completely... at least it is expensive to shoot. I do like his ammo varients and the greater variety of weapons and ammunition. Seems like it would keep players from looting all the ammo, even apds and ex-ex if they couldn't use most of it.

I am a firearms guy with a taste for the unusual so I am more likely to find his stuff fun than most.

I would like to try and stat out a long chamber breech load shotgun using modified .50 bmg cases (the body of a .50 bmg is the same as a 12 gauge) and loaded with 800 grain slugs or .50 bullets in a sabot. The idea may be stolen, but it sounds like fun in real life. Part of why I gave my guy armorer skill.

Hey.. If you guys have some of the newer pdf's of the rulebooks.. Please send me it.. Like, RUnner's Haven and Street Magic.. Those.

Admin:Guidelines are pretty clearly stated guys. Fortune shouldn't have to remind you. neither should I.

Indeed. Piracy, like shooting people in the face, is wrong, and is an activity that should be left to the imaginary realm of roleplaying.

Eh.. For the most part.

Heheh... face asplode.

I'm sorry, but tomorrow, I can't game. I'm really, really sorry. Time crunch and everything. :.(...

Eh, no biggie. There's always next week.

Oh, definitely.

Horse ass.. Alright more Counter-Strike tonight for me.

SORRY!!! :.(...

Kinda works for me, have dinner with family tomorrow evening.

Alright this sunday correct??

Oh, yeah.

So, you still looking for people?

Sorry guys, I won't be able to make the session this week. Massive final projects and all that.

I would accept more people, but I can't run this week. That gives you time to make your character, of course.

I would also like to join, in case you can accommodate another player

Cool. Eh.. what is the team missing right now? I'm pretty flexible on char types so I'm quite willing to shore up a lack of skills in one area or another kinda thing.

Do we have a new date, btw?

Next Sunday. I'm very sorry.

Hm, maybe Ill be at a birthday party then, but it's not fixed yet. If not, I would like to take part in your game.

We have a demolitions dude, and a hermetic mage. My buddy's trying to find some people for a meat game, so if you want to be a technomancer or a hacker, don't feel as if you're stepping on any toes.

My character hasnt made an appearance yet but he is basicly a face with longarms, a bit of driving, and armorer.

I forgot what I wanted to play. Hmmm... adept, maybe?

Hmm well if thats the case, I do belive I know what I'll make. I've an ork runner idea I've been wanting to fiddle with for a while now. I'll whip it up and send it on over to you and see what you think of it.

BTW Which program are you using for the game? It still AIM or you using somethign else?

mIRC. #shadowrun@irc.gamesurge.net

BTW Emo you get the email I sent with the charsheet?

Nope, it's shinobimaster@gmail.com.

K. I'll resend it when I get home from work today.

EDIT: Ok sent again, let me know if you dont get it for some reason.

Kesslan, i got your character.

And bad news and good news. The bad news is that I have finals coming up, so no games this week. The good news is that this won't happen again for several months.

So no game again, but a really good chance of game next week. What do you say about starting a forum side to the game in the mean time? At least to introduce the characters who havn't shown up.

Could it be on a different day than Sunday.. Because I work mornings now.. 9:00 - 4:30 PM.. Someday during the week.

Saturdays okay?

Saturdays would work for me depending on what time it starts. I work till 7AM EST Saturdays. So I'd be free any time after that most weekends, though depending on start times my coherency might be out the window
