It's too obvious to be the reader himself.

Come on. These are SR fans you're talking to.


You know...if it was not for the fact that the books are also done by Shadowrun fans, I might agree with that idea.

Come on, though...these are SR Fans writing it..do you honestly think they would do something THAT simple? No, no...it is someone...we just do not know who yet. It should be figurable, though...

Darn it, now we're going to have to start figuring it out ourselves!

To help shed some light on this, the jackpointer is me. Really... I convinced the devs long ago to write all the pages from my perspective.

I also have a bridge near Manhattan that's for sale.

Uh-huh..yeah, right wink.gif Sorry for not immediately believing you on that, Tiger Eyes, but...well, honestly, you folks DO have a bit of tendency for obfuscation. So, how can we really trust that this is not some part of the return of Metaplot, and that you just do not want to reveal yet who it is, or that you know who it is, but have not figured out where he/she fits into the upcoming metaplot..

Of course, even if they didn't know, we wouldn't believe them.

The devs are stuck telling Cassandra's truth.

I don't know, I just think it's awesome that they made my favorite character from unofficial shadowrun fiction (winterhawk) a shadowtalker.


Well, Winterhgawk's author was an Assistant Developer for Shadowrun for a while, so it makes some sense smile.gif

The sad part is that I've met people who really do think that way.

Hardcore SR players/fans scare me.

As if this forum doesn't get watched by the security agency of the world. Nukes, homemade explosives, plans to raid banks, bio-weapons and how best to make one and other such pot holes like terrorism pop up almost weekly on here. Oh and smuggling of weapons plus hacking. This list just goes on.

If that's the case, they could at least register and share their experience with us. frown.gif

Prostetic Cyber/Bio-ware? Improvements in the medical field? Improvement in the civilian applications of the nanotechnologies? Come on, I'm not asking for the schematics of a nuke, just some info on the developing fields.

What? You think that would not be considered as something under interests of National Security?

No way, you know the US government doesn't care about medical problems!

At least conspiracy theorists are interesting.

Heh, I'd think by now (20 years?, c'mon...) that we're at least up to Son of Metaplot if not Metaplot IV: The Neo-Plotting


Edit:Corrected math.

An interesting conundrum, and a reason to continue purchasing sourcebooks despite my campaign having gone into Hiatus.
