It might be the settings. But Dumpshock works much better on chrome the IE.

I use Firefox. Mixed bag, but pretty good right now.

The IPS Driver errors have been savage. I get through when I can.
Yes, Paul would love to sniff out nodes and not only provide Angel with a list, but if there were any identifiable markers or network identifiers, see whether he could figure out whether it was a coherent network or several ones.

Lately it just seems to either let me in clean (on Chrome) or not work at all, not so many of the IPS for some reason. Lately very clean here, and on my phone too. That probably makes it hard to keep track of stuff. I might just have Paul do a lot.

Yes, Bongo ensures that the apartment is secured before the team moves to another floor.

Do we want to speed up the pawn shop encounter, or are we happy to roll some dice? Either way works for me.

Well, rolling dice is how one can speed up an encounter by abstracting it.
But if thinking about it slows you down, just engaging in dialogue would be fine (though I suppose that can and probably should involve more dice rolls. That's always a tricky thing to balance. At a minimum, I do the thing where dice rolls can be used to prevent your characters from messing up.
You can also use a dice roll for ideas, which sometimes I've used to feed a char a tidbit they can work with. Anybody ever watch "Burn Notice" Most of his "face" stuff as I recall hinged on noticing details he could work with.
Also I'm somewhat struck with how limited Sprites are compared to agents. They undoubtedly can far exceed any agents capabilities and without a few of the agent's drawbacks. But they deplete so rapidly. Maybe I'm being too narrow with what a "remote task" can be scoped to. I guess there isn't anything actually preventing a Technomancer from buying agents like anybody else, though. So Sprits would be for when you need to pull out the big guns in the matrix. So maybe they should also get the -2 per active registered Sprite like magicians do for spirits.

Ah, Burn Notice. So many good ideas for SR. I wish I could get the episodes here to watch it all again.

It's on a few streaming services. They probably should have gone for a movie instead of the last few seasons.
But it does have some decent face work.

While there are time considerations, you could also help out in the clinic. That's a new of the advantages of this format over a video game.
