@All: Who's Negotiating? Goat? Okay, see if we can get Mr. J. up to 20K and permission to loot the AA.

Jonhson wants it gone, we can prolly get a fair bit of junk out of the place. Sell the junk we steal, find the ownership of the phyiscal stuff and sell that. Heck find a way into the property ownership and we can rake some money outta that too.

Steal anything that isn't nail down and anything I can pry up isn't nailed down. It certainly does have an appeal. Getting the money to 20k would be nice, but the loot is were you make the big money.

We will need to liquidate it, but we certainly could make quiet a large amount. We could also raid the personal accounts of the people we plan on killing if it can be done discretely.

Mister Juan:


And, now, I think the Johnsons have been fighting long enough.

@Jeremiah

I need to know if this is a reasonable fee for what these guys are asking for in your gameworld.

My Shadowrun sense is tingling and shouting warnings like 'low pay' and 'personally involved Johnson,' but I don't know if Goat (or the rest of the team) would be thinking that.

Also, I'll get you a negotiate roll when I get to my dice.

@Toras: right *Pragma' Goat, *sigh* don't worry about me I'll get everyone straight. (eventually)

@pragma: Invisable Castle

@Jeremiah: In my mind "destroy" something means there is nothing left. So Mr. J will be able to walk around to the site of the AA sometime after we're finished and there will be an empty lot, preferablly with three bodies buried under ten feet of concrete

@Jeremiah:

Geez Pragma nice negotiating! I can get behind 27K (when I understand how much we're getting)

Hopefully, everyone had a good Halloween.

Well, let's get kicking!

I agree, and I really hope we get that advance. As expenses suck.

Just so I'm clear, is anybody still watching the dancers?

Me. The tags thing was a bit a slang that I've used in SR before. Reference id'ed targets, drawn partly from clothing tags and partly from toe tags.

They aren't targets, they aren't enemies (maybe), they are just faces and names. Hence tags.

Sorry about not having responded quicker - been busy this week.

@Jeremiah

Mister Juan

@All
Ok - so who all is in the van?

Hey guys, sorry I've been slow with an IC post. One is en route, but I'm going to be very busy until Wednesday.

Goat plans to leave the club, get in the van a few blocks away and ask where the drop box is in order to see if our employers have forwarded intel.

I will be entering the van discretely.

I'm driving And it's a Bulldog so I've got room for 5-6 folks.

Well let's get everyone loaded and start our legwork... Shall we?

Sounds like a plan.

Just so I know, is anybody still interested in this?

*raises hand*
With whoever is still here.

Still here, Mandy's a card I've been trying to play for a while and she's fun so I'm in it to win it!

Still here.

Still in.

Rock & Roll. Let's move forward. Shall we begin discussing the legwork? Anyone use IM? Meriss and I communicate on MSN, but I also use ICQ/AIM and Yahoo...

I have an Aim

DarnelWarwing

Don't use the others.

As for legwork, I can imagine that we are going to start by pulling up some basic corporate history, hitting the local governmental planning sites for building plans and the other sorts of things that they would have to keep in public record.

Most of this is going to come from our Matrix based associate. Fortunately, if I remember things correctly, this level of corporation doesn't have the (I'm my own nation) level pull of the bigger Mega's. Add to that China is less likely to simply roll over for the Corp, but rather force a fairly elaborate system of bribes to manage and get their peace.

They may have been communist, but Greed is alive and well and so is Confucious.

Beyond that, some meat space/astral surveys would probably help as well, give us a good idea of what kinds of defenses they would be using. Also, checking what security firm they use and what level of response we can expect is also a good idea.

From there we can form some responses.

Just wanted to drop by a little something to say that I'm still in.
I'll try to get a post up as soon as I can.

OK everyone, unless there's something you wanna do at or near the club, let's get this show on the road.

Starting with: corerect me if I'm wrong, but does Scope still have the credstick?

I think so. And I'm ready when you are.

Yes, Scope grabbed up the credsticks.. If she pulls a powder this may become a run just about tracking her down...

As Thanksgiving week is winding down, I imagine we all should be about ready to get back into the game.

I've added Toras to IM (but have not had time when he is online to strike up a conversation yet). Any chance of getting the GM on IM as well? A conversation in IM runs much faster than via PM or OOC post for working out a details sometimes. (If not, we can continue via OOC.)

Sorry about disappearing - I had a hectic couple of weeks with school projects coming knocking. That and also the topic reply notification e-mail apparently decided it wasn't going to send anything to me anymore.

I'll try and catch up quickly.

-Scope

My AIM is jackendavoxgsf

Scope is going to head to her apartment just long enough to ditch her 'legit' weapon (the Hammerli), holster her silenced Fichetti, put on her hardhat and grab her "surveyor's" kit, then head to meet the van. She wanted to have her gear without compromising the location of her safehouse by having to give directions.

- Scope

EDIT:

Here are some rolls:

Everyone gets out of the club uneventfully.

Scope:

This week is kind of touch and go for me -- couple of big projects coming to a head. I'll throw up an IC if I get a chance -- otherwise, Goat's planning to rendezvous with the van and will chip in whatever he knows about the local goings on.

@Jeremiah

Redjack:



Also, it is now 11 pm, and you all just left the club. Most of you are in the van. What are you doing now?

As I said, I'm making my way to my apartment to get my stuff before meeting up with the others at midnight, so unless somebody contacts me via comm, I'm going to refrain from posting until everyone else catches up with me time-wise.

Scope did imply in her comm-messages that she was retrieving her gear I believe.

Well, it looks like interest has died off, so it's time to declare the game dead.

Maybe next time.

I think you still have at least four players. The holidays are probably affecting our post rates at the moment. I know it is for me.

I'm still here, I was just waiting for you to advance the time so I could get back into the action

You do. I think we can safely assume we are driving.
