In that case he would have been using Detect Hidden Nodes without the knowledge of the exact location of the node.

@MaxKojote: thanks for the reference, I didn’t remember that use of the action.

@Csjarrat:I think this case should be the first use of the action, as you have a pretty good idea where the nanites should be if they are there (in your body). Anyway, the threshold of the second use is 15+ and I think in this case, I would raise it, as it isn’t that easy to find something as small as nanites. Extended tests table suggests a threshold of at least 18 for hard tests, so I think around 18-20 in this case would be fitting.
My answer in IC doesn’t change anyways, you are not able to detect any wireless activity that suggests the presence of nanites.

@Gustovness: I remembered that you rolled another Cybertechnology test, this one was for a different reason. There was a new question, for which you needed this skill and the answer for which was not covered by the previous result.

@all: I’d like you to decide whether you want to do anything with the results of Leroy’s tests, then I’d like to go on with events. Things seem to slow down again (partly due to my extraordinarily busy weekend), and I’d like to bring them back to speed.

I don't think we can do much at the moment with the results, except maybe stay out in dead zones until the time has passed that they are active.  Just to be sure.

true, we can tell him, but at the moment we can't really follow up on it, as we don't know who build the nanites.  All 10 AAA's have the resources, as have a number of AA's (escpecially those in the nanite area), so there's no telling at this moment.

I kind of ran over what you just said here in IC.  Sorry, I always read IC before OOC.

I do think we should talk to Tweety about what's going on.  Even if he doesn't help us with finding out who did this to us, he might be able to help us get rid of any threat the invaders currently have inside our bodies.  Also, I think providing this info should be payment enough to Tweety.  Being a fixer, information is as good as cash and discovering the REAL cause of everyone getting wiped out at The Rider should be worth a fortune.

Maybe we should push our luck and see if it's valuable enough to even make a dent in our current debts? Leroy will share it across everyone's accounts if it works out in our favor.

Well, Matt is our face when it comes to Tweety.  He should know what tone to use and how to go about it.  I say go for it!

Joel would be me. :P Farothel would be Jade.

EDIT: Hey Ren, was I able to detect whether or not the nanites were still present?

@MaxKojote: no, as i wrote, you sensed only some residual signs of nanotechnology, but as it is hazy at best, you can't really be sure.

@Csjarrat: i'm not sure Farothel is against telling Tweety about the possibility of nanites, at least according to last IC post, suggests the same. So i say, go on with the notification IC, to move the story forward.

we can tell Tweety.  he might even have (or know someone who does have) equipment to confirm or deny the existence of nanites better then what we can do ourselves.
