yeah well... money is money!
Rakshasa
DB's on a camping holiday till Sunday, so I've done a silly little infil for him and me.

Has the Lady Jane blown up yet?

Silverspur_2020
yeah.... I will add that in on this next IC post, nothing special, just letting you know that its happened
Rakshasa
Flip & Seeoh will do an IC putting the Team back on dry land later tonight. [Saturday]
Take it as an aftermath for any other activity - like Ace almost crashing or incoming stinger missiles etcetera. biggrin.gif
Rakshasa
We thought it best to fence what we got off Lady Jane before we met with Mr Kitao.

Wouldn't expect to get a much better price from our Principal and he just might not like our removing cargo anyway. :eek
Mysterio
I will be gone from Tuesday 24th to friday 27th, just to let you guys know
Silverspur_2020
Ooh.... going anywhere nice?!
Mysterio
to a friend's cottage way out in the middle of nowhere. Should be nice, me her and her sister.. biggrin.gif
Think pure thoughts... *L*
Silverspur_2020
lol.... well in that case I shall have the impure thoughts!!
Rakshasa
Seeoh negotiating with Barbarosa for the best price she can get. Bearing in mind Flip's strength we rekon around 10 kilos of assorted `happy pills', Uppers - you know the type we mean biggrin.gif , and a few designer cartons and various capsules.

Con. 6,5,2,2
Neg. 4,3

Getting ready to go back to college, will post this weekend.
Silverspur_2020
Fair enough.... I may not post this weekend as I am at my girlfriends.
Rakshasa
Again!?

BTW, Sildenafil is the pharma name for Viagra, for those who didn't know.
Mysterio
I have returned, time to check out IC
Silverspur_2020
I came back early as well.... I was offered overtime at double pay!!!
GunnerJ
I don't think Bluebird is on the couch, I think she's still in the Osprey.

And on that note...
Silverspur_2020
oops! my mistake... forget that post then!!
Mysterio
Guess that changes Codec as well
Drain Brain
ROTFLMAO @ Mysterio!

Bluebird on the couch... weird... she was wearing clothes... that never happened b..b..b..before!
Silverspur_2020
lol!!

I am fairly impressed (If I say so myself) by my first post in the other game!!!! just felt the need to say that!

oh, and that due to me working overnight last night I have had about 3 hours sleep in the last 30 hours!!
Drain Brain
Any news on the Barbarosa front?
Rakshasa
Thought it'd save time if we assumed a cel call to Codec.
Silverspur_2020
Sounds good to me!
Mysterio
Hello? game still on?
Rakshasa
Yep, think so. Flip & Seeoh busy but will advance plot tonight.

Would have done so yesterday but couldn't get into the Forums.
Silverspur_2020
Im ready when you guys are... but I have also had a hell of a time getting on the site.
GunnerJ
Sorry for being late to reply... and I hope my post doesn't seem like cheating. Ace already distrusts Kiteo, and didn't even want anyone to meet with them. He only told Bluebird about his concerns, and after that felt kind of an arse and couldn't work up the nerve to say anything more. [/handwaving explanation of my lack of participation]
Drain Brain
I feel so alone!


Listening to the depressing bits from the Platoon soundtrack and reading this at the same time is freaky - just having mental images of Ace's wagon going into the sunset and the rest going into the restaurant slo-mo. Music covers the dialogue and, as if in a dream state, the heavies pull out SMG's and gun us down in very action/drama ways, blood pooling, with Kitao looking on over the top, grimacing...

frown.gif
Rakshasa
The Boss wouldn't do that...............Would he????????????????? spin.gif
GunnerJ
Ace wouldn't just drive off. Probably he'd stick around to pick up any of the brave souls who turn tail and run in time to not be killed.
Silverspur_2020
As I havent looked in the IC thread yet... I havent got a clue what anybody is talking about!! guess I had better go look!
GunnerJ
Oh, snap.

I second that, I think it was Kitao sees the decker...
Drain Brain
I apologise in advance to anyone whose eyes begin to bleed in reading that bloody long post... I had the writing bug... spin.gif
GunnerJ
Oh snap.
Silverspur_2020
Sorry, I guess my brain was in neutral.... yes, I did mean Kiteo saw the decker!
Silverspur_2020
I can see this meet going one of two ways, there is the option of walking out with a mildly annoyed Kiteo.... or there is the run like frag while guns blaze option! but if a van comes through that front window (which would be EXTREAMLY cool!) would kinda limit your options!! grinbig.gif

The relationship with Kiteo is going to end either way now, You needed him and he needed you in the begining, but thats over now. You as team have enough money to set out on your own and he has his own people now.
GunnerJ
I was keeping the "3 tons of roaring enginemetal screaming through the teahouse front door" plan in reserve, in case Ace came back and found the team getting their asses handed to them.
Silverspur_2020
Nevermind, maybe next time!!

The wonderful thing is you still dont know WHY they are after you... so it should hopefully leave the paranoia thing intact!
Silverspur_2020
I was waiting for someone to post something... but my brain has died...

are you guys waiting for a responce from me now...

even my fingers are tired. (no comments please!!!)
Rakshasa
Coming soon to a Farm near you :-

a) Bad Guys after Ace and lots of fun.
or
b) Karmic awards and lots of fun.

Flip & Seeoh
Silverspur_2020
I think option B is much more likely... besides, I have a few things I would like to change if I end up running anther one.
Drain Brain
Like?
Silverspur_2020
Well for instance I (No offence Mysterio) I find it really difficult to run the Matrix parts of the run, so I think on the next one we may have to swap Mysterio for somebody else.

I want to have it more structured as well, I am a very good person when it comes to ideas for runs... but I struggle to have it laid out, so it ends up (like this last one) being very "free form". Next time I would like to do a really in depth run/campaign as well which will be a challenge to EVERY charecter, I would also like to get the charecters sent to me longer in advance so that I can plan around who I have there, not adapting what I have planned around the charecters. I also fancy running more of a corperate style adventure.
Drain Brain
Good plan!

Out of interest, though, without Codec... if Deuce turns up, Flip will probably twonk him one...

Wicked character, but to be "in keeping" with Flip... hmm... ohplease.gif

Aw, sod it! I know what I mean!

But what sort of thing would he be replaced with? Hmm....
Mysterio
whoa I think I'm being voted off the island here! *L* I do have more than 2 chars made...*sends up the white flag*
Anyways I am heading out of town for 2 nights, i will be back as of Sunday
Silverspur_2020
Well they are just thoughts for now... what I think im gonna do is ask for charecters to be sent to me once I have had a few weeks to think and relax from GMing and I will start toying with ideas then. Hopefully *Touches wood, but not the rude kind!!* the next one will run much smoother for me as a GM and you as players will notice a big difference.
Silverspur_2020
Ok... now the main bulk of this run is over, 3 points of karma to each of the players....

Just need to see now what Ace's reaction is once Codec speaks to him!!
Silverspur_2020
ooh! - cross words from our resident rigger!!!
