Guys, I have created these since I seem to be the first of our group to be here... so off we go! Sorry silver...

T

Thats ok, im just trying to get my head around this new format!!! The old format was like a comfy old pair of slippers....just have to learn to wear this one in now!!

ok, problem is I cant remember what just happened!!! people will each have to put a post up as to what they have just done, and what they are about to do...and I will work around that....so Drain Brain, let me know what Flip is up to!!

Just a reminder, tomorrow I'm leaving for vacation, and Internat access will probably not be an option until Thursday. Feel free to NPC Ace for this time period if necessary. I did make a post in the Old Forums, haggling for two vehichles.

Thats no problem.... In that case as of tomorrow (english time) I will take control of your charecter and do the deal!

I am getting the feeling that Legion has dropped out... if this is the case do you guys feel that we should get some more charecters in? ask for say two street sams or something?

I'm finally here. Wow nice forums!

Silver I will wait for you to post IC for codec because I am not sure what your plans are based upon our e-mails

Thats simple...I am carrying out what you said you wanted to do!

Just sorted out Codec's smash and grab.... you started out pretty well, but the IC got the initive, your lucky you have a high armor rating...it saved your skin! and your deck!

*Back

I'd also like to note how well I-- and, incidentally, Ace-- thought the negotiations went. Ace would not feel cheated, as he wasn't too keen on the idea of a second vehichle anyway, and cash is a good thing. Seriosuly, he would have settled for just the Roadmaster.

But it doesn't matter much. I'll wait till someone answers the question in Silver's post before posting again.

Well the reason why I put that was because I was expecting Flip to try and get more money...which is why the money they offered was fairly lowball....but nevermind! Ace has his toy now! and the runners have transport!

And cash. Bling bling.

yeah but dont forget, you need to do some shopping for the Roadmaster and Codec will need the feedback loop for the run you have comming up! trust me....you will spend it quicker then you earn it!

I don't want this to sound like a cop out, but just to note - Flip is from the kind of background where gangs are lower scale - more kids than serious muscle like in UCAS. That being the case, he wouldn't have thought to ask for more cash - not to mention the fact that the majority of his gang life was based around the favour trade - it's better to keep these guys friendly for the future, and having this over their heads might be useful - "Hey, that first time we helped you out we didn't push for the whole cut you know we were entitled to - you owe us..."

Anyhoo... back to the IC thread...

Actually thats a really good point!!

And its all gone strangely quiet!!!!....



(Sorry about the last few days guys, work has been snowed under with stuff to do.)

*beep*





















What was that noise? Whoa... the silence is overwhelming!!!!!

I'm waiting for someone else to give their input, really... Flip's kinda stumped by her admission!

I don't even understand what she means. She's insurance? Of what? Of us? Why not just tell us not to take any risks? Why not tell us?

Is she insurance that the job will get done? We're not even on the job, and even then, why not just hire her to do it?

I'm just confused about what she meant.

Yeah, I'm puzzled too - I would think that she's insurance against us betraying Mr Kitao... but that doesn't explain why she was shooting at us and, for that matter, how she got to the school before US, when we didn't know where we were going - surely she should have been tailing us if she were insurance!

Maybe you should ask her?

Ok, just to clear a few things up...

she never actually shot at you, if you remember what happened you saw a flash come from the window which she was sat at.....it could easily have been light reflecting off her sniper scope as she sat and watched what was going on.

Also, you were sat just down the street from the school for a little while working out who was doing what...bearing in mind that you had met up with a rival gang I don't think it would have been to much of an assumption as to what you would be up to

and yes, by insurance... she did mean to make sure the job was done, after all...Mr Kitao has hired some new and unknown runners to do this for him, and he would look very foolish if you double crossed him! after all, reputation is one of the most important things for the japanese to have!

hehehe...looks like im on top form today! I had it all planned out since you were first at the school...

Mysterio-a fence would probably be a better bet for getting rid of this stuff...after all, they are more likely to have the contacts needed.

I'm looking for Frog, a contact of mine (he's on my character sheet).

Ooops a little lost poster in the IC thread *L*

There is no easy way to say this, but I feel that this run has collapsed in on itself... so I am going to call it a day. but I have learnt from the mistakes that I made and will hopefully be able to make the next mission a success!

If any of you are interested in doing the new mission or GMing one yourself, feel free... Mysterio, are you interested in trying a new mission? after all, you have seen a successful one of mine and know what its like

The next mission is going to be a normal level one...so no more scratching around for eqipment and straight into the run itself...

I will still be watching these forums to get your feedback before I do anything...

That's too bad. I was still interested, and I just had to finnish getting settled into college. But I'm interested in any other projects you start.

As was I, but I'm "game" for the next one, if you'll excuse the pun...

T

I'm equally open to suggestions, although I won't pretend to understand the rules of the Matrix! If there's a specific role you want me to play, then let me know!

T

Maybe there is still a little more interest then I thought... The reason why I thought people had lost interest was it didnt seem to be flowing as smoothly as previous missions I ran have done. If all three of you are interested in keeping this one going, then I will happily do so... and we can advertise (for lack of a better word) for someone else to join, but what I think I may do (and mysterio is familier with me doing this) is to bring in a charecter which will be run by me...that way I can try and guide the way this works a bit better!

Let me know what you guys intend doing next in the run, because you only have to question Bluebird now, you havent said what you wanna do after that.

Sorry if im messing anyone around (guess its GM insecurity!!!)

Jeez, this place is freakin' me out - I replied to this already!

I seem to recall writing a nice long message but I can't be bothered to dredge it up from my (awful) memory, so here's the gist:

Yes, interested, was gonna leave ACE to play Bad Cop while I call Kitao to verify the story.

Once that's sorted, I was intending to go to our "target" and try to sign up as a sec. guard - even if they say no, it'll be an interesting experience, nes pas?

T

ok, well I get what you want to do... I shall write it out for you up until the after the phone call, and then its up to you after that to let me know what your doing as a team, by the way, I cant help but feel someone may wanna ring and check on your decker just to let him know whats happening. Because nobody has told him IC!

Sorry about my three posts IC....I thought my firewall was blocking the messages so I tried three times to work around it before finding it was working fine!

its gone quiet again.... I get nervous when it goes quiet....

are you guys waiting for me to post something?!

I'm waiting to see how much Codec is going to get for his info

I was waiting for some kinda response to my proposal... and I can't drive, so it's kinda up to Ace to take us to get Codec!

Gunner?

I know Codec got 6000 but only used 5000 in the IC thread Codec has a little plan, nothing spectacular but he's going to try and get the most for his money

Ok....sounds good to me, after all...what is a decker if not cunning?!


Drain Brain-as gunner isnt really replying...assume he said yes to going to see codec, and roleplay the next part as you see fit (within reason!!)

Hey, I'm still here! DON'T LEAVE WITHOUT MEEEE! ;_;

I've been very busy recently, but I think things should even out. Sorry for the delay.

thats ok! just wanted to keep things progressing!

Okay I have one quick question. I remember back on the old forums that somebody in our group wanted Codec to do some research for them but I don't remember anything more as in who etc. Can someone refresh my memory? Believe me I feel silly for asking.

It was Ace. He wanted you to do a search in the security node for references to a person named Frank von Miller. They (Ace and Codec) never worked out a price.

just so that you all know, im not gonna reply to anything immediatly.... that way you have a chance to chat as a small group and decide your next move, after that I will give Bluebirds responce to what Flip said.

Just so you know, I'm planning on asking Codec (if he's got time) to look up Bluebird on Shadowland or something - see if there's any information on her. That will give us a little information we can check against what she tells us. Although it wont be difinitive, it should let us know if what she tells us is at least almost true!

Sure...thats no problem! Thats what Deckers are for!

Just so that we're clear, Ace's request was for Codec to poke around while in the security facility.

Oh did Codec find anything in the department regarding Ace's search? I'd just like to know before I meet the other guys.

Codec will never find anything in the obvious places, hes going to need to be inventive and resourceful (and have luck on his side!)...Without wanting to give anything away, the name you are searching for with Ace will be a long term project for Ace and the entire team!! -think of it like the X-files, I was thinking about giving you a sneek peek at where the name might lead in the next mission... if you are still interested at that time!
