The fuckers want 12,000
??? Are you kidding?
Any chance to figure out if this the usual amount of bribe?

It's
1000 a month, so not unusual. It's clear that the KE cops in this area are working their own protection racket. Whether you pay or not is up to you, however you have the added advantage of knowing just what they'll do if you don't. You used to be on the other side of the line, remember? You may have never done this, but you did do your own shady dealing.

He knows you just paid a bribe and he knows his co-worker just accepted it but there's nothing he can do about it, cause he's on the take as well. If he talks he'll go down right along with the other guys. He's guilty but he feels bad.
Does that make more sense?
Grinder
Apr 30 2007, 09:38 AM
Much more. I wasn't sure if he's on the bribe side or not. Thanks for clarification.
Lady Door
Apr 30 2007, 09:47 AM
@ Grinder: So, where did you get the bribe money from? Was it the resteraunt safe or your own pocket?
Grinder
Apr 30 2007, 09:48 AM
Sunny's own pocket. Guess he's without any money now and needs a job.

No thankfully, that freeway is farther south. Thank God. We used to drive that freeway quite a bit when we lived in the Bay Area and I would not want to be any one of those commuters trying to get into the city. It's going to be a nightmare.

Si in game ,I'm ready for the meet.
I think Grinder is just about there.
Haven't hear anything from Fastball after his intro.
Callidus, hope you're gonna get some posting in and cattching up soon.
Tasio, are you about in the spot for the meet?
Meriss, where are you at in terms of 'arriving for the meet'?
Meriss
Apr 30 2007, 05:47 PM
I'm hoping that the meet/job will be on the shadowland node, if it isn't I just need to wrap up my job and My fixer will call me or something. In other words I need to post my char sheet.

As far as I know:
Charlie - need to roll Data Search for Shadowland search
Neit - having dinner w/Felix. Waiting for your response.
Tony - a@ your apartment and waiting to leave for the meet.
Grinder - @ the restaraunt. Waiting for your response.
Shell - @ Twiggy's Girls Galore: waiting for your response

Well My brother is moving tommorrow so I'm for bed. Fist don't blow a gasket looking for the gear prices.
Just anything in the sheet that doesn't have a price next to it. Also don't worry about the cyber I'm fairly sure my character generator has the prices.

FYI, I won't be at home from May 7h to 11th and I don't know if I'll have the time for longer internet sessions. I'll be on vacation with four of the people I'm working with, visiting lovely Dresden. So please be patient if the game slows down a bit in that time.

I went in and edited the first posts for the IC and OOC threads, putting in links to each other, to make jumping over easier.

May 1 2007, 10:08 PM
Cool.
What about posting all characters in the first OOC post too?
fistandantilus4.0
May 1 2007, 10:37 PM
I could move copies over there.
You couldn't alter them though. Remember that glitch , ,where it drops everything after the first spoiler?
What we could do, is I or Plan B could post all the characters under one spoiler, than any char updates would be sent to PLan B who would update it there.
Thoughts?
Grinder
May 1 2007, 11:33 PM
PMing or posting the char updates here and you update the first post is fine for me. And yeah, I remember the glitch
Can't you insert some new posts after the first one? Like one post for every character? I mean, is it possible for you as a mod?
fistandantilus4.0
May 2 2007, 01:03 AM
Unfortunately shuffling order and inserting new posts is one of the things I'm not able to do. I can edit another posters posts, or delete one if necessary. I can also move them to another thread, but they'll also automatically go in to chronological order.
