Very sad to see you go Scawire.  It's been a pleasure man.  I wish you all the best.  You will be missed sir.

As I said in Kindred Bond, it's been a pleasure.  Sorry our characters never actually met, the story you lumen and csjarrat made is what enticed me to submit a character for this game.  And honestly Mams is my favorite character so far.  Thanks so much for that!

I think its mid-week lol. think we're on weds/thurs?
anyways feel free to wrap up the drinking scene as you see fit and move on to the next day.
Staying out with the boys and heading to a club will give +1 loyalty with Ralphy but will impose -2 to your actions tomorrow due to hangover

Oops!  That'll make the run ... Interesting. Will he refresh his ant point of edge, or will the drinking prohibit that?

you'll get the edge back mate, no worries.
You're not forced into staying out, feel free to make your excuses and head home if you'd rather not. just thought i'd dangle that carrot lol.

Oi, decisions decisions!  I'm headed into work, I'll post up this afternoon and think about it.  I like the idea of grabbing another point of loyalty, but a full day of -2 is a reasonable, but still costly, price. Mostly I need to better figure out how Taylor would hand it rather than me.  He *is* a mamma's boy after all, but being out with the boys every now and then is important!

To be fair, it would drop to -1 by late afternoon and 0 by 5pm

Oh!  Even better.
Here's the crunch side of that IC:
Matrix Search on deli (Int 5 + Computer 6 - hungover 2 = 9): 9d6t5 3 (limit 6)
Matrix Search on Westminster Arms (Int 5 + Computer 6 - hungover 2 = 9): 9d6t5 3 (limit 6)
The parts about the security he'll actually wait to properly inspect once he's on location.  Though he's got the signal scrub, he could go VR and do that.  But I'll hold off.

Did Mams find any feeds he would be able to hack so he can keep an eye out for his Mark?

The cameras around the streets there are directly connected to hosts and aren't publicly broadcasting. There is a small security camera behind the deli bar but noise penalties are at -4 (Inclusive of spam and distance)

Hrm... Okay.  I'll have him head down to the deli and snag a feed from the camera.  Once he's got that, he'll head over to Westminster Arms and keep an eye out there for his Mark.
When he gets there he's going to look to see if there are any places it looks like he can physically touch a camera looking to the street so he can keep an eye out for when his guy goes out for a smoke.
IC up in a bit, but here's some rolls you may want from him:
Once I get to the deli:
Matrix Perception on deli camera (Int 5 + Comp 6 + MP spec 2 + techno 2 = 15): 15d6t5 6 (limit 6)
6 questions:
1. Device rating
2. Firewall rating
3. Wether the video stream is protected or not
4. If it is, what rating is the protection
5. ...
6. ...

Once those questions are answered, I'll get rolls for him hacking it (or not if it seems improbable).
Then he'll look for a street camera:
Perception to find a camera (INT 5 + Percp 4 + VE 2 + Specifically Looking 3 = 14): 14d6t5 5 (limit 8)

Device rating 2, stock camera.
 Firewall 3.
encryption rating 2.
Hope that helps! You guess that it records to a holo terminal somewhere on premises as it's not linked to a host

Forgot my -2 from the hangover for all of this :(  I'll re-do it after work.  IC coming to get me to the deli.

Okay, I'm going with static viel on myself to keep my OS from going up over time:
Static Veil level 2 threshold 2 (Res 6 + Software 6 = 12): 12d6t5 6 (limit 2)
Soak fade 2 (Will 5 + Res 6 = 11): 11d6t5 4 (no damage)

NOTE: didn't include noise here due to my signal scrub.  Assumed removing the distance would reduce the total noise to 2 or less.  Sorry if I'm wrong about that :(
Need 1 mark to both crack the file and "edit" the file (just going to be reading it, not actually editing it):
HotF deli camera (Log 6 + Hacking 6 = 12): 12d6t5 3 (limit 5) urgh, it's got 5 dice, small chance, but it might at least tie there.  Goint to assume it doesn't and give you more rolls anyway.
Cracking the file:
Cracking video feed file (Log 6 + Hacking 6 = 12): 12d6t5 5 (limit 5) That should do the trick, only 4 dice to defend with so...
Editing the file to have it display in an AR feed for me:
Edit File copy feed to AR window (Log 6 + Comp 6 = 12): 12d6t5 4 (limit 5) again, should be good, only 5 dice to defend with.

Wishing for a babymonitor here ;)
Check Overwatch Score (EW 6 + Logic 6 = 12): 12d6t5 3 (limit 5) Here's hopin' for less than 3 hits on 6 dice ;)

Then on to seeing about a camera outside I can get my mitts on.
