Great to hear everyone is doing well.  No worries on the posts, I've obviously been struggling a little myself.  Zeib is making look bad with all his awesome rp :P.   

I'll work on a IP and some rolls.

Sorry it took so long on the rolls.  I edited my IP last night and tried to roll but IC has 503'd again.  So I hit up the one zweiblumen uses.

Con 2 + Charisma 2 = 4d6[5]. Con-ing Orks: 4d6h5 0  :(  Oh well had to try.  I guess we'll see if they jump first or I get a chance at intimate.

ok, lumen, intimidate checks at -1 for being outnumbered if you're going that route or initiative if you prefer, chuck in the rolls for your combat actions too to speed things up.
zwei, you're good to go so hit me with your rolls :-)
in terms of matrix perception,
He's carrying an R2 commlink (public) which is broadcasting in pubic mode and shows his SiN, a few music files and some other miscellaneous shit you're not interested in.
Assuming you're going to do a proper scan, he's running a higher rating commlink in silent running mode

I'm making the assumption that I'm down to a -1 for all of my rolls now.  With his target in view, Taylor will head to the restroom and VR this.
Matrix Perception on deli cameraMark (Int 5 + Comp 6 + MP spec 2 + techno 2 + VR 2 - Hangover 1 = 16): 16d6t5 6 (limit 6) w00t!
Questions in order:
1. Rating of silent commlink?
2. Firewall rating for silent commlink?
3. Commcode for silent commlink?
4. Last action run on silent commlink?
Guessing it'll get at least on hit... if I have any hits left over:
5. Last action run on public commlink?
6. Comcode for the public commlink?

Compiling Level 6 DataCourier Sprite (Res 6 + Comp 6 = 12): 12d6t5 5 (limit 6) (opps, should have only be 11 dice, drop the last?  if so, still 5 hits)
Sprite resist compiling (level 6 = 6): 6d6t5 2 (3 tasks)
Soaking Compliation Fade 4dv (Resonance 6 + Will 5 = 11): 11d6t5 3 (1 point of stun)
Static Veil threshold 2 (Res 6 + Software 6 - hungover 1 = 11): 11d6t5 3 (datacourier sprite isn't generating timed OS)
Soak fade 2 (Will 5 + Res 6 = 11): 11d6t5 4 (no damage)

Task 1: cookie on the Mark
Task 2: Trace device
Task 3:

The cookie power works on a persona, not a device but that doesn't make much sense.  The fluff/rules aren't specific as to when that persona uses different devices to do different things.  If we are following persona, then no distiction needed, if following the device I'll have the sprite put a cookie on the silent device:
Courier Sprite attaching cookie (Hacking 6 + Level 6 = 12): 12d6t5 8 (limit 11) (that's a lotta hits :P)

For Task2 I'll need to roll initiative to see if it can get everything done in 1 task, otherwise It'll be 2.
courier sprit initiative (13 + 4d6): 4d6+13 25 (3 should be enough)
Courier sprite HotF silent device (Hacking 6 + Level 6 = 12): 12d6t5 3 (limit 9) (ugh, can I use edge for the sprite?  do sprites have edge like spirits do?)
Courier sprite HotF silent device (Hacking 6 + Level 6 = 12): 12d6t5 5 (limit 9) (better)
Assuming 2 marks
Courier sprite trace silent device (Hacking 6 + Level 6 = 12): 12d6t5 3 (limit 7) (ugh again!)


*sigh* Machine sprites can't get their own marks.  So instead of having the courier sprite do all of that work, I'm tossing that and I'm gonna risk the fade and puppeeter the silent device to have it invite 3 marks from Winston.  Invite Marks is a Simple action so I need net hits.  We've gotten to the point that it matters what the devices pool is, so I'm gonna wait for the results of the Matrix perception.

Rating 4 commlink, dp and firewall of 4.
Last action is open a voice call channel.
Public commlink downloaded software updates as last action.
You manage to grab the commcode for the public without any issue

Resistance rolls to come tomorrow, after sleepy time! Babies are tiring lol!
for me, cookie can go on a persona or a device as appropriate.
God i can't wait for data trails to come out!!

ok, assuming you're in the restroom of the westminster arms?
here's the resistance roll:
: 8d6t5 3 so you easily get your cookie in place

Free Action: Talkin Shit.
Simple Action 1: Take Aim
Simple Action 2: Fire Taser.  Pistols (Taser) 7 + Agility 7 + Smartlink 1 (Wireless) + Aim 1 [Accuracy 7+1] = 16d6. 16d6.hits(5)=5

Let's hope I don't get womped since I didn't save any initiative for parrying.

We are using Run&Gun RG4: Alternative Initiative then?  I'm fine with that, but it'll take Mams out of the picture in the meat almost completly (encouraging more VR time, but that causes other problems).

And yes, I'm *so* looking forward to DataTrails.  Thanks for allowing the options once it's actually out!  I'm sure I'll spend a few days pouring over that book.

And Ouch... looks like I'll need to go with a Level 6 puppeteer (10dv to soak, but it's still stun so he'll just have a bloody nose and be wobbly).  Probably end up spending edge to push the hits.  Here goes nothin!
Puppeteer on silent device (Software 6 + Resonance 6 - Hungover 1 = 11): 11d6t5 3
Yeah, definitely doing second chance on that... Re rolling those 9 misses:
re-roll misses 9: 9d6t5 4
Much better!  Hit the limit of 6 with total hits, I need 2 net hits so here's hoping it doesn't roll more than 4 hits on 8 dice... now to soak that 10dv :(
Soak fade 10 (Will 5 + Res 6 = 11): 11d6t5 6
Booyah!!! only took 4 stun... takes me to 5 (at -1 now... definitely goona sleep well tonight)

Okay, so that was to have it invite 3 marks from Winston.  With 6 hits, I'm gonna make the rolls assuming the success (just wasted orokos time if he failed)
Should be one task as he's guarenteed at least two actions per IC
Winston Trace Icon on silent comm (Computer 6 + Level 6 + VR 2 = 14): 14d6t5 3 (limit 9)
Winston Snooping Silent Device (EW 6 + Level 6 + VR 2 = 14): 14d6t5 4 (limit 6)
Man, low rolls... those might not succeed, but here's hoping! :)  Just need 1 net hit on each of those.

Lemme know if the puppeteer was successfull and I'll get an IC post up!
