Yeah, the others are buying motorcycles back on Tuesday, but you may feel free to post anyway, and I will do what needs doing to get you integrated into the team.

Whoops! Edited the timestamps of my posts.

As for re-painting... I have been trying to figure out how much that could cost...

The only thing I found is "Pimped Ride I" in Arsenal, which includes a lot more than just a fairly standard paint job.

That would cost 300¥, so I guess 100¥ should be ok.

I would have 15¥ left then (including the other stuff that I am buying), so I'm not exaggerating.

Heh. Don't worry, the next couple days will go by faster.

You lot thinking of starting a go-gang of your own?

That would be humorous, as their "leader" - the main face - drives a Jackrabbit...

So much for the money. I'm totally broke now.

Well, if every mission gets you enough to buy a bike, at the end of the season you can retire and open a dealership

Once I join the team and get some money, I wouldn't mind if my thaumaturgist bought a bike. Maybe even get a "RIDE4JESUS" vanity plate.

(Not that it matters, but even though my char is a catholic priest, I'm not at all religious. I just thought it would be badass to have a priest who can probe minds and wield a pistol )

Going to make one more downtime post tomorrow, which will cover getting the various items that have been rolled for already and so on.

Afterwars I should be good to move on.

JP, Rick will probably still be looking for a place to live.. 2 days just isn't enough to find what he wants. Especially since he doesn't have another fake SiN to work with.

That's fine. You've paid for a certain level of lifestyle, so you can continue to live it as long as you need do.

Just threw up the kickstart post in IC for the next mission, and to get the four of you and Von's characters together in the same place, and hopefully on the same team.

Please feel free to backdate/time any posts you need to, to get things right for the start of the next scenario.

Faraday fix your time stamp
you're 4 days in the past

This is what I get for posting at 4 in the morning.

Just a reminder, as the meet is in the CAS, if you choose to write up actually going there, remember to roll Etiquette + CHA (2) for any border crossings.

I thought it was Etiquette + Charisma + SIN Rating (2). Is that correct?

Absolutely so, sorry to have missed that part.

No roll for using your real sin? >.>

Not if you also have a real license for your restricted or forbidden gear and cyberware, no. And it's not a criminal SIN. And you took SINner as a quality so that you have a real SIN.

Feel free to describe your arrival with the appropriate timestamp.

You guys need to give Rick a nickname and soon

Rick, you might want to edit that text to Pedro so it goes to Pedro. Who's Von?

P^l/)

*cough* timestamp *cough*

BTW, do we see Lyle somewhere? Because he didn't tell us where the meet is exactly.

You can't miss my Jackrabbit, it's the only car in the parking lot

*facepalms* really did you guys not read JP's post? We're standing in the open totally hard to miss. AND my Jackrabbit is the only car in the parking lot. I'm not sure why you're having a hard time finding me .. I'm not very far from my car.

When I made my first post, there were some people standing somewhere, but noone that I know.

Now it might be different.

Took the liberty of "arriving" Cruiser.

Yeah, check my time-stamp.. I took care of that

Thanks for adding Cruiser into the scene. I forgot to post my boder crossing rolls, which Cruiser failed by the way, so discounting 300 for a bribe

Border Crossing ==> Etiquette 1 + Charisma 2 + SIN 3 = 6 dice ==> 6d6.hits(5) → [4,1,1,4,2,3] = (0)

At least it wasn't a glitch. Will write myself into the scene next.

Sometimes running the shadows in Denver can be a harsh mistress.

What's the abbreviation for the Sioux Sector?

Rick is going to have to use a firm pimp hand with Cruiser and Ghost

I can just tell.

I dunno if there's an official one. Just use 'Sioux' if you would like.

SiouxSec?

I thought that Negotiations would wait until after we know more about what we are up to.

But, admittedly, it sounded a bit different.

Seriously, though, why would you negotiate over a price without knowing what you are actually negotiating about?

I meant like PCC is the abbrev. for the Pueblo Corporate Council, or CAS / UCAS, something along those lines.

I found something online... NCS (which stands for Sioux non-contiguous sector), but it seems a bit strange.

Bye
Thanee

because you alraedy agreed for us to do it

Yep.

To me the steps are as follows...

J gives a very general description and what he is willing to offer
R agrees to be generally interested
J gives the specifics about the job
R negotiates for a higher price, based on the specifics

No?

if you don't negotiate at all before you agree to take it, you can't back out if the money is way too low for the risk.

I know what you mean... it just makes no sense to me.

It just seems stupid to negotiate over something before knowing what that something is.

"We don't know yet what you are going to tell us soon, so we have to assume that you must pay us more money for it."

I see your point. Part of it how these modules are written. I think I'll start tweaking them more as we go along - giving you more opportunities to play things out in terms of negotiations.

Well, we're negotiating on a kidnap victim retrieval.

We actually have enough to negotiate ON.. the middling details aren't all that important.

Anyways, 7k is a lot for Ghost right now. So, I'm in.

Bye
Thanee

for Rick too.

I'm actually just chuckling at Rick's frustration.. first Cruiser just kinda blurts out really badly.

Then Ghost gets all "course we can do it" before he even gets to say a thing

Yeah I know Cruiser made an ass of himself. I just had to RP it that way. The problem of having a low charisma combat character in a place like Denver

And that sort of RP is worth extra Karma, in my book. Play your character as not being perfect at everything once in a while. I'm having a good time doing that in the Post or Die game where, out of nowhere, my character turned into a real control freak. It's fun!

I have been looking for a cool picture for Ghost's bike... Evo Pegasus
