I just set up this for OOC chatter so we can keep in touch and try to find ways to keep the game going, we seem to have hit a lull.
Trigg- is RL still rough right now? Maybe Ethan can pick up the questioning until you get more time?
-
Another idea is that we have contacts character get you all on the visitors list to see the apartment or at least run that scene in the future so it can happen now while we wait.
-
I'll do the hacking for sure. Just let me know where you want me to start.
-
Definately need to get into that apartment. It seems the only sure way of getting a lead on Kiku's location is to follow the trail by magical means; the Yaks certainly won't touch that option with a 20 foot pole.
Reno's dirt shows interesting possibilities for what may be happening behind the scenes. Nice setup, Red. ;)
-
Im in for the visit, it seems that Reno will cooperate, so we should play that this way.
-
You guys have a line of questioning Nadir should follow? Reno's surprisingly cooperative, and yes good stuff Red. Wasn't expecting such an intimate convo in the washroom.
-
As far as hacking the apartment complex node is concerned, you would know that most of these style of establishments have a list of authorized visitors, people that don't get harrased on the way up the elevator and if you where on that list you could get in and up to her door where slip can perform her magic. :)
-
crap, looks like i'm late to this party. :-[ yeah, as soon as we're done with Reno I'm down for figuring out a way into Kiku's place. since we've got a full layout thanks to nina, and with B.B. on our side we shouldn't have to many issues. I'm thinking to keep the evidence of our entry and search to a miniumium only myself korbin (if he's still availible?) and maybe Nadir should physically go. More than that would be suspicious to security and it would save time since not everyone would be posting and the others could push in another direction depending on what else we learn from Mr Reno.
-
Just a head's up fellas, I'll be undergoing carpal tunnel surgery on the 20th so I may not be able to type for a while. I think this bar scene has gone on long enough, so feel free to take Nadir over as you guys continue.
-
I'm finally going to get a break from unexpected long work shifts for today, tomorrow, and Thursday. (How does 10-1, 5-8 mutate into an 11 hour ordeal?)
I should be able to have Operator pick up the talking with Shade relatively soon.
-
(How does 10-1, 5-8 mutate into an 11 hour ordeal?)
quite easily, believe me, bro :)
-
This looks like a good time as any to figure out how to split our team.
One group will be going to the apartment for certain, and it appears the second group can do legwork on Reno/Shade's reveals and follow up on that. The million nuyen question is, who exactly should be going where?
-
I would say that Operator should head at least one end of the search.Slip might be required to bypass the security at Kiku's building, so she might be best tasked there, but since she also knows Seattle so well she could be useful in finding where kiku is in town and getting to her quietly. I'd say she's good either way, with a preference to get into the apartment. Korbin (If he's still with us?) he should go where ever there will be a physical search required since he's got such large dice pools for perception. and I'm sure he'll be able to catch things that we might not. Knowing B.B. from RTR I'm sure he will be useful anyway we include him. Nadir having spells that are good for social influance as well as stealth and combat, as well as a good perception dice pool will make him useful to either group. Nina with her background in medical work as well as scouting might be more helpful to the legwork team if things go wrong for them, they'll have a medic on hand as well as a long range shooter to fend off threats from distance. but that's all just my opinions. anyone else wanna weigh in? (BTW sichr is gone till next weekend on business if no one else knew.)
-
My first pass at the teams would consist of the following. Not a final decision by any means, as we need more input. :)
Highrise: B.B., Korbin, Slip
Legwork: Nadir, Nina, Operator
-

Highrise: B.B., Korbin, Slip
Legwork: Nadir, Nina, Operator
I am personally inclined to agree with your assessment. both teams can handle a fight, and seem well suited to the assignment. also, I'm pretty sure B.B. can watch both teams backs unless we get attacked.
-
OK. back in town. If the team is splitting, Im comfortable be in any team. my UWB would be of more use inside the building,
also te medical background should help me better understand Kiku habits and needs, on the other side legwork team would be placed in more risk situations whem moving around the city so this
is also a good place for me. So ill go with whoever gives me the ride :)
-
Going to 'borrow' Nadir for a moment so we can push the story forward.
Would Shade expect to get both Nadir and Operator's commcodes to call in that favor at a later time?
-
Since no one is ghosting there coms she can just get their Access ID to make a call latter.
-
Ill be of for the hollidays for next 5-7 days, completely disconnected :)
Good luck till then and dont get yourselves killed. Nina will be back ;)
-
Have a good week!
In the meantime, I don't know whether I should play for Nadir during the penthouse sweep.
-

That's a good question, what do we want to do about 1/2 our team being either quiet, or gone? I'm not inclined to wait for risk of the game dying out again, but with this many people gone, it doesn't seem fair to ask Redwulfe to handle their actions as well as GM. What do we want to do here guys?
-
Red's been a bit quiet too. Do we need to write ourselves to our destinations?
-
i figure we give him till tonight, if not, we can write ourselves there. Also, kontact, would B.B. want to get a small make-over so he looks like someone not himself for any people watching us enter the apartment, or would you prefer to let hacking cover our tracks?
-
Disguise is an option, but it's hard to make a 3-foot tall guy in a repairman's jumpsuit look like anything else without masking.
Doing his face up different isn't a bad call though.
-
Sorry guys, we have been really busy at work of late but I'm back. I mainly like to wait for you guys to write yourselves leaving to go to location, before writing the description of what the location is or waiting for an OOC post.
On hacking I am use to people perceiving the node to find out info before hacking in. On PBP most of this could be done in this thread with descriptions being posted in the IC thread.
As far as people being quite, I have heard from most but Trigg. trig if you are still on and playing let me know, if not we will open back up for another player soon.
Red
-
for the hacking attempt just let me know how you want to proceed the node is not hard to find as it has public access. if you wish to check out its states before making an attempt then give me a computer plus analyze, if you wish to hack on the fly then give me a hacking + exploit.
-
Speaking of locations, it's hard to put Operator (and Nina) at any one point other than "Seattle streets." He's going to follow the trail on Yu Jin as best as he can. Usually a bike is good for that, but if it kicks us out further than Seattle, things will get.. interesting.
-
I dislike the idea of having to analyze each icon individually to determine what it is, because that just leads to the mosh pit defense.
Say someone hacks into my commlink. I say that I sculpted my node such that it has 1,000,000 icons, which I, as the creator, can instantly separate as wheat and chaff based on access #s I have memorized. The intruder, however, needs to roll potentially 1,000,000 analyze tests to find whatever he's looking for. That's really ugly.
I prefer to play where an analyze test is done on the whole node, showing where various systems are located, and any stealthed icons get to roll opposed with +2 (or against the original roll -2) to represent the searcher being distracted by cataloging the rest of the node.
There are plenty of places where Matrix RAW is borked, and matrix perception is one of them.
-
Agreed that perception in the matrix is winked when a situation like that comes up but I don't try to ever do that it defeat the purpose of colaburation and good story. Let's take the hotel sculpting for instance. You get four success on the perception test you could ask for your fist question which of these icons are background noise? And I would tell all the people in the bar are either outside icons with an access ID that puts it as either a data query or an outside user with a guest account except for the bartender one patron at the bar the doorman and the receptionist. You could then ask the function of two of those and find out that one of them is a inert security IC and a peripheral device for room service. You then take your last question to ask if there are other node attached to this one and see that the door behind the front desk is a Entry point for the connected node. As you see it will take about two to three good rolls to know the entire system. I don't try to make you analyze each icon and ask all of questions on just that node you can split up your queries and I don't try to mess with a play by making him make unneccesarry rolls. It is not productive to the story that I wish to tell.
Now for icons that are running stealth or who have had stealth ran on them, if you try to identify or see a stealthed icon several outcomes are possible. If the icon is trying to not be seen at all such as a hacker or IC, I would roll it's stealth and as long as I get more success than your test it will be grouped as a background proccess. If the icon is trying to look like something else when you ask for it's function I would roll again and the same thing if I get more hits than your perception then it give you the false data. I've been using these methods for years and it does work reall well. The reason it is important is in some highly secured systems they have IC that is interrogating the node constantly and we need to know how often I roll. Usually you will find everything you need to know in two to three rolls for you that's one IP so I would only get one roll to try and find you on the system.
Example questions you can ask are list in the book in the section of matrix perception. If for some reason you feel that I am being unfair or you feel that it is taking too many rolls we can look at alternate systems, but for now I would like to stile as close to the book as possible, just so you guys know what rules are being used to make you descitions on.
Is that OK? If not let me know.
-
@ redwulfe While BB is hacking I'm going to apply nano paste to alter my facial features, (enough to look similar, to any picture assocated with my sin, but different enough that visual records of me won't match my actual face. so if i get asked questions I can claim ID theift, or something of the sort...) what kind of test to you want to use for me to do to express this? I was thinking that it'd be disguise plus intuition, (total of 7 dice) and since I'm not on a time limit I'm wondering what kind of threshold I'm aiming for and how long each test might take.
@ Kontact, I'm going to wait until you're done to use nano paste to alter your facial features.
-
You program it with computer plus edit roll and then you also add the rating of the nano paste to the disguise roll as well.
-
So, basically, one analyze test would tell me what's an icon of interest (this is the find stealthed icons roll,) and then other hits/tests will tell me more about those icons? Does that sound right?
And do I need to do multiple hack tests to add multiple IDs to Kiko's approved guest registry or whatever?
-
You program it with computer plus edit roll and then you also add the rating of the nano paste to the disguise roll as well.
I'm looking at page 338 SR4A where nano paste is listed, I see the part were you talk about the rating adding to the roll, but i don't see anything about what the ratings are, and they aren't listed anywhere I'm looking right now. Is there a default rating for it? is the rating the edit program? what's up?
-
There's two options for preparing a mask or nanopaste disguise.
1) Program: Computer + Edit test, and the total hits you get equal the mask/nanopaste rating. They are capped by your Disguise skill.
2) Biometric scan: The scanner's rating is used for the disguise rating.
-
If you need an edit test, I've got enough dice to score 3 hits, which is my disguise skill rating.
Alternately, we could skip that and I could just crash and burn their security recordings. Radar will tell me if we pass anyone with cybereyes.
-

that might just be easier, as it seems I'm lacking in the necessary gear to make that nano paste work to our advantage. (I don't really have the skills necessary to operate the first option and I don't have a bio scanner... gonna have to work on that.)
Anyway kontact, just let me know when you're done hacking and we'll be ready to be walking.
-
I can hack and walk. :)
-
Kontact you got it, and only one edit test to edit the file however you want. Threshold changes to accommodate the complexity of the edit. Yours is the basic two plus the security level modifier for not having the proper level of access.
Slip yes the programining test sets the rating, if you don't have that I will let you have it programed at the store and that gives you a rating 3, but you won't be able to change it unless someone else does it or you go back to the Halloween shop you bout it from and for a small fee have them reprogram it for you.
-
Not sure what threshold you're looking for on the edit test to put the crew on the guest list, but here's a roll. 11d6.hits(5) → [5,3,5,6,4,1,3,4,3,6,3] = (4) (http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/3138013/)
If the threshold is higher, I'll throw edge for the reroll. 7d6.hits(5) → [5,3,6,1,6,1,5] = (4) (http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/3138017/) For a total of 8 hits.
-
Hey folks, I can kinda type now. Thanks for stepping in an handling that stuff, where do you need Nadir?
-
hey omae` good to have to back on deck! :D You're with slip and B.B. we're going to scope out kiku's apartment. want some nano paste to adjust your looks for the cameras? if so I'll roll for you.
-
Kontact you needed threshold three, so your good
-
are we waiting for something specific?
-
I guess we need to write ourselves over to the door to her apt? Might even open for us..
-

Alright, I'm willing to write us there, did you want to cause problems somewhere else for building security/maintenance to chase down before I do?
-
For the UWB perception you usualy use UWB rating instead of Visual enhancement rating IMO. Id roll two different rolls: Visual and Radar.
-
Nah, the radar's rating only matters for how much material it can get through. Since it uses ultrasound rules, it's just basic perception. And since ultrasound is a visual enhancement, it's up in the air whether it benefits from the vision enhancement, um, vision enhancement. IF it doesn't, does that mean that lowlight and thermal don't benefit from it either? It's a weird rules conundrum. Honestly, it's a little thin, rules-wise. In fact, Radar cyberware doesn't even require an image link... :o
-
Yes, it didnt require Image link because IMO it is 360° degree field of vision radar placed inside your head as completely new sense. It even isn`t part of cybereye implant, it is piece of headware...but its not my call in this game to solve this...
-
I'm looking forward to seeing what's inside of Kiku's apartment. If Brian's guess is on target and there are dead bodies stashed inside, one has to wonder whose bodies they were.
-
Well, we're soon to find out. Hey, kontact could BB scan for nodes inside the apartment as well? I'm guessing there's an armed drone inside. I'll use my B&E tools to try and crack in.
-
I'm looking forward to seeing what's inside of Kiku's apartment. If Brian's guess is on target and there are dead bodies stashed inside, one has to wonder whose bodies they were.
So do I.
And maybe it reveals more about Kiku`s nature also...:)
Really interesting :)
-
I only worry that I inadvertently took Nina and Op out of the action too early. A full party of five (one being a Salish ork) would have raised some eyebrows from the staff.
I anticipate that the bodies belong to.. gentlemen with irezumi.
-
No problem for Nina, I hope that we will be able to confirm/falsify her leaving the city. I would also suggest we check her father, and Op is the only one able to do it...Nina will try to cover him if we do this. Id really want to know if he is still alive...
-
Hopefully I don't disappoint.
-
damn, that place is a wreck and half! I'm not even sure what to look for at this point. we've got serious evidence of a struggle/fight between the shot up fridge, and the char marks all over indicate to me (metagaming) that fire and water i'm guessing from a spirits has been used inside. that leaves a few paths for things that could have gone down. possibility 1: If it was yaks my guess is they where the ones with the big guns. came in through the balcony windows and kicked off the party. They wouldn't bring in magic users so my bet is the spirits are from someone else. possibility 2: A mixed team of shadow runners, got called in to frag her, mix heavy weapons (assault cannon) and at least one magic user with offensive spells or spirits to come in and take her out. Possibility 3: This place is a well staged distraction and it's a bunch of bad leads. :possibility 4: Something I haven't thought of. where do you guys think we should start?
-
Wish Im there, autopsy of the body should reveal a lot, but we can possibly done it via AR bridge if someone would look and touch for me..(damn I dont have simrig, that would be perfect for this situation IMO
There must be lot of evidence, if the atack was Magical...traces of the spirits you mentioned is IMO good gues, also look for things that meay have been used for ritual spellcasting or something like that. Balcony ETC...exit/enter points are broken? I didnt recall that fact...possible more traces? And IMO that lock youve been passing gave up quite easy...
Complex hacking atack, CHN seems to be down...
no more bodies?
Just my 2cents
-
I agree, it feels like there is a lot missing to this aftermath... I can't imagine that someone would bother to drag that body up stairs and set it up with a rose after getting attacked, and I can't see a team of runners leaving anyone that could be traced to them behind either. That body means something, but what? the rose could mean they were a lover, dear friend, family even. I'm now more suspicious of her old fixer/boyfriend than i was before. i think he still knows something but that's me leaping at straws. what about the little details? The way the dining area was set up, two plates and silverware ready to go with the table set up for a (romantic?) dinner. the CHN being completely offline and the building staff not knowing about it. I'm going to check out the windows and see if I can find anything leading to where they started from. If it's possible for the apartment to be cut off from the network like this in one spot it's possible anywhere in the building. At least thats my guess. I'll wait to get started till after Kontact and Ethan throw in on what they make of this mess.
-
Hmm..a little brainstorming of my own...
Wall in the shower...hit by the fire(ball, bolt or some kind of other fire attack or heavy weapon (well no further damage? Just the fridge)? What was the atackers position?)
Is it possible that someone tried to extinguish fire on something/someone using the shower for this purpose?
Fridge - possible cover? Again - position of the atacker? Defender? Doors used as an improvised cover?
Milk...how long it is spilled? IMO when this all happens? If U dont know exactly, take some samples, Ill make anylysis in my chemistry lab. In fact...take any samples you thnk are interesting or important, Ill run analysis for all of them...
That part about drone I didnt understand well, my english...what is "busy body drone"? And about that camera...does it mean that there are sparks still, or that sparks ignited something...or sparks ignite is the phrase that says that there are ocasional electric sparks (really srry:)
Char means ash?
Is it possible to recognize what was the menu from remains on the dishes?
That candle...IDN...
Broken glass from the Balcony: does it mean external balcony or internal balcony on the top of that glass stairway to the bedroom?
Where the fire begins?Alarms off, CHN down...no, this doesnt look like an accident, even if the victim is Kiku father who was suffering from illnesses of the high age and such people may be dangerous to themselves...but we still dont know whom the body belongs to...
Does the water came from rain? Or were there really two materialized spirits engaged in the combat? (very low level of other damage, furniture is just wet, not torn apart...??)
Does that robot have a memory?
-
A couple of answers,
Yes char means ash.
The balcony on the second floor was glass and was shattered as if something went though it and fell into the living room from the bedroom. Not the outside balcony which seems to be intact.
The camera is sparking sporadically showing that it has been damaged.
The busy buddy drone came from runners companion under advanced lifestyles and is a standard house cleaning drone. It seems to be malfunctioning.
Dishes where rinsed off but are still in the sink waiting to be cleaned as if someone did a quick cleanup after dinner but did not wash the dishes.
Yes there was no alarm the CHN is down and the security in the building doesn't seem to know it.
-
THX :)
-
My assumption is that the rose was from the dinner. Probably and empty vase down there. So, it's not an assassin's signature or something like that... probably. The body being male or female should be easy enough to suss out. Could scan the body with the radar and send the images back to Nina. Angle of the pelvis should make it obvious. I'm assuming now that it's a gent since that was her preference.
Probably a spirit attacked each one of them, the guy got toasted, she carried him upstairs and placed him on the bed with the rose on his chest.
So, someone tried to off Kiko, and now we're looking for her. This isn't going to turn out well.
-
Well we are still assuming that there was some kind of assault.
We will need some biological samples to get info on the victim. Also the easiest way is to check the visitors log on the reception or do it by the legwork. We need to be sure that the body is not her father.
The nature of damage in the kitchen should reveal some facts about what happened here...
Ill post the medical roll for guiding the examination of the body, we shall see if there is more to be discovered...did he died by the electriciřty or by the fire? Age? Health state and level of care (wellness, regular medical examinations, healing processess in the past, injuries etc...) before he died...
There is an option that Kiku turned off the security system on her own to hide this event...or that it has been shut down before this happened...
Since there is a trace of electrical damage, that would mean Air spirit...and since there is very high background count in the apartement, it wasnt easy to summon spirit powerfull enought to do this.
So there are three possible elemental effects in use: Air, Water, Fire...
IMI IDN :)
-
Ethan as you are looking into the astral please give me an assensing test to learn more about the magic of the apartment.
-
While tracing the ID of Kiku's cab and getting answers from the driver might not be worth the time, it serves as additional evidence to support any claims of Kiku bailing out of town. I get the feeling we will have to pursue her to Denver, but there is at least one more trail to follow - the magical presence.
Red, did Mr. Johnson explicitly forbid the runners from going to Kiku's penthouse? Or did he only mention that they (Yakuza) could not provide access by reason of avoiding all signs/appearances of involvement?
-
They could not provide access.
-
Hell, Next time Ill take my time and create my contacts more viable right on the character creation, at least some names etc, I like the way Operator has it done, it is much nicer when you adress someone by the name, not simply Contact (Sorry Kontact, I didnt mean to ...ah...forget it :) )
At least I wont need to create part of the background story every time new contact comes to play...
-
And what about the Kikus apartement. Do you want me to call that KE guy, or would we just leave it for locals? The probably would not want to alarm police for the rotting corpse and would clean the place in silence...even when the dead man wasnt their customer...
-
Let them find the body on their own. Additionally, I'm under the impression that the contact that Nina just received was her coyote.
I feel like I'm dragging my feet somewhere in the game. :-[
-

you and me both.
-
hopefully its not me I was just waiting on actions from the party to react to. I will post an answer to Ops question and then wait. Just let me know what you guys want to do.
thanks,
Red
-
So, should I roll perception to see if there's anyone in the hall, or can I just assume that there isn't and we can clear out? My thought was move on out of the apartment quickly and get the kit together to jump to Denver.
-
Oh it was me, yes there is no one out in the hall.
-
Then let's all punch out of the apartment then. We've got the info we came for, and have a fresh lead to find kiku. Once Redwulfe moves us out of the area I'll need to write something to get Slip ready for the trip (as I'm sure most of us will) and then we can get on to denver.
-
Kontact, could you have BB trace that cabbie's ID? That's the last errand Operator needs to handle before he's ready to leave to Denver.
-

His pirated Track program has degraded to 0, so that's not looking too hot. How about hacking in and checking his GPS history?
-
Snooping on his GPS history is perfectly acceptable.
-
Browsing grid guide is also an option.
-
Do we recognize the men waiting for us? is the man at the door's comm code open? I would like to judge the intentions of all 3 and pull a perception check as well.
-
You don't recognize them. You can get the code with a matrix perception test. They seem to want you to get in the car and if you don't you think they will get violent. Yes you may make a perception test.
-
Ethan they are not magical at all, but they are cybered a bit.
-
Yes you may make a perception test.
Done.
-
Yes you may make a perception test.
Done.
for me as well, 3 hits in the IC.
-
you both notice that the three Japanese individuals seem a bit jerky in there movements, as if they are wired. they are all carrying pistols of some sort under their coats and they are wearing form fitting armor. You also notice that there is someone sitting in the cars back seat.
-
Millimeter wave radar is a cyberware scanner. It should not only list any standard grade cyberware and weapons, it should give their model numbers.
Anyway, this older Japanese man, would I be able to pull up a picture of the Sotozumi Gumi and compare it to the man in front of us? I wouldn't want to tell this man anything if he isn't who he says he is, and if he is who he says he is, then this would not be what I expect.
-
wired reflexes Lvl 3, skill wires Lvl 3, smart links, skinlinks, and cybereyes all Delta. the man sitting before you is in fact Oyabun Hanzo Shotozumi
-
I say we flat out lie our asses off to him. Con him saying we were previous associates in the business his daughter had been in. worked once together, but parted afterward. we'd heard that she was in trouble and came looking, found nothing good and don't plan on getting further involved because we don't need the trouble if she's already gone. Just looking to confirm rumors. we can pull a team work test all our social pools thrown together and hopefully bluff our way out of this shit storm. what do you say guys?
-
I would approve of that approach. There's no evidence suggesting that Shotozumi would let us off the hook by being completely honest, and it would embarrass Kanaga.
-
Talking about hook, I hope we werent just a bait to get Shotozumi somewhere with enought strangers around him that would be easz to blame them...even if thez manage to survive the ambush. Just hope that there is no sniper/rocket ambush squad on surrounding rooftops...
-

don't you know it's bad luck to say stuff like that?! :P
-
just a little...paranoid...sorry for that :)
-
well if we're going to lie our collective asses off, I'd like to ask the Sub team to roll their con skill if they have any or defaulting charisma score so i know how many dice to add to my pool. I've got a base of 7 dice to start I know Nadir has 6, but I can't tell if BB has 2 or 10 charisma.
-
I think lying to this man would be suicide.
BB has 2 charisma, the 10 was the BP spent on it.
-
Maybe telling him that that Fixer was worried about his friend and asked for help would be better, imo if their relationship was close (I mean Kiku and her father) he would know better than us any of her previous companions...and that would be lethal cause we had literally keine anung about Kiku and her previous life...
EDIT: Ive read IC right now. Kontact: Brilliant :)

The prospect of an internal war in the Yakuza ranks is way too good for B.B. to pass up.

Good thing you didn't drink from the cup good sir. The problem now becomes, who makes a better ally? A failing Shotozumi, or Sato Kanagan. that's a very important thing to consider since that all just went free fall on us. our promise to Sato of silence is gone, and while the shotozumi might spare our lives for this, but we now have no choice but to ride out what looks like an over throw attempt. Even if we acted as if nothing had happened and left for denver, if any of sato's followers are alive, assuming his side hasn't been destroyed by the Shotozumi he's going to kill us if we have kiku or not when we get back into town. I'm glad i have laes with me so we can make this like it never happened... but we should probably figure this out now before stepping in more shit that will get us killed as is.

You can't bullshit a man like that, and 4 guys with delta-ware wires III will kill us dead in a second. Spirits have to materialize and spells take time to cast. A deltaware ninja will win on the surprise test and ventilate us in a heartbeat.
Besides, a guy like Shotozumi is subtle. You don't become the head of the largest Yakuza ring by being ham-fisted.

best scenario is they will kill each other. But lets not make assumptions before we hear his answer...first, there is a river to be found...;)

Just to let everyone know the hurricane has left me with no power, so posting may be spotty.

A few more days or weeks and this would be like a dream.
We`ll wait
strange, till this moment I didnt realized that Irene should hae hit some of my fellow runners, since Im quite far away from US east coast. Hold on...

thread death isn't my fault this time. :P

That's why I moved to Oregon after Katrina. So long as the volcano doesn't erupt, I'm pretty much safe and stable.
-
I'm still lurking on the coast after Katrina.
Not in New Orleans, mind you; I'm east of that messy waterbin.
-
I live inside of the AOE of the largest known volcano in the world, so I'm safe from just about everything except if it comes from above or below. :P

all right gentlemen Ive been mailing with redwulfe today and here the response:
Things are looking up we got power back and hot water, the tropical storm that came through after didn't help but it wasn't too horrible. Work on the otter hand suffered from major setbacks and since we work on tight deadlines it has put us behind severely. I spend my days away from the office and hope to be back soon. Hope all is well with you guys, and I will see you all back on the boards within a week.
Thanks for the email. At least my phone is working so I could respond.

I'll keep my fingers crossed, as I was enjoying the tension invoked solely from our Johnson's affiliations. Good to know that he's still doing well.

Bump to confuse people.
Also to wish Redwulfe well, wherever he may be. 8)
