Oh, right, Chikage is from UCAS, not Seattle. We wouldn't know her. Guess the post stands. Sorry for peeping on you, miri, I thought you were the Johnson.

Chikage is from the UCAS proper, yes. DeeCee, and also Chicago, now in Seattle, though only recently. People who visit virtual clubs (like Tux's) would know her icon as a regular, and she appears in various clubs in Seattle on a regular basis. Also has ties with Yakuza.

Probably the most likely place Nitro and Chikage would cross paths at all, really.

So, in summary... I probably wasted a ton of money on buffing security for my commlink that you can make nigh invulnerable.  No worries, I guess, since the one actually linked to my stuff is skinlinked and with wifi totally switched off.

Eh.  Slaving consumes subscription slots - you don't generally want the rigger using all her subscriptions on slaving the team's links.

[Aryeonos]

Don't you have to be exceedingly close to something, or have a really long cable, to slave something?

[RHat]

Nope, standard subscription.

Awesome, now I feel justified in having a good commlink and a dummy public one. 

[Aryeonos]

Sichr, what colour code are you using? I can't tell if you're talking out loud or thinking to yourself, also, I made my calls through DNI so the only thing anyone heard from me after I got that call was when I said 'Quite'. Though, since we know each and I presume we know we're going to the same place it'd be easy to infer just what call that was. Anyway.

As long as your commlink has Skinlink added to it, it should be able to form a connection with its wireless turned off.

[Aryeonos]

I tend to make a lot of conversation through DNI matrix calls, so I feel it's important to differentiate speech on different levels.

[Aryeonos]

Like I said, I think we know we're acting together, and I did order you a cab, but all anyone saw me do is stare blankly and nod my head, I'll be more descriptive next tome.

[Aryeonos]

Wait, did you actually roll a dice for being Poirot? You realize now that your character must be voiced by David Suchet, and now I have to change my voice actor from Bill Nighy to Hugh Fraser.

That's what I was thinking, I just always keep forgetting if it has to be on and in hidden-mode or if it can be off.

If the GM rules the way you say, then I've definitely got the good one's wifi off.

I looked through the core book where I was sure it said how this worked, but while the core book says they can be set to default to skinlink unless that connection is broken, when it switches to wireless to maintain connection with the PAN. However, it doesn't say whether it can be set to "wireless off" or "wireless hidden", so I'd think that they can be set to either one the device is capable of using.

Does it normally take 3 days and 3 pages to get everyone to the meet with the Johnson?  I assumed the pace would be a bit faster, but that is admittedly an assumption based on nothing.

[mtfeeney = Baron]

Is this something we should post?  What gear we have and its wireless capability/status?

[RHat]

Well, getting a listing of non-hidden stuff doesn't even take a roll.

What is node level stealth?
