No problems getting in.  What do you want to know/do in the system.

IC/databombs/users presence
user lists and last logins/operations -> when it was last accessed
register of music/trid files edited -> hoping for some paydata here like unreleased pieces of trid, or Holland's private porn sessions
hardware peripherals slaved -> hoping for identification of some pieces of the equipment that i could use, maybe some sensor to boost Doberman capabilities with better image/sound  or tridmapping abiliity
peripherals linked -> hoping there are some trid cameras set over the building there are somehow connected to the set and provide the view in those rooms
programs lists -> hoping for some advanced edit programs that I could convert and use for myself

I Climb. Whee. Seacrest Out.

Burnin' Some Edge: http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/3043442/

I figured falling horribly to my death 80 floors down would put a hamper on things for Jack.

0 hits just means that you didn't move anywhere for a combat turn.  No need to burn edge unless you glitched.

Besides, this is assisted climbing, which gives you two more dice. 
2d6.hits(5) → [5,6] = (2)  there goes.
So, with 8 dice, you could just buy two hits per turn and get up the shaft without incident.

If you want to keep rolling, it's a threshold of 21 on the extended test and you're two hits in..

Nothing too sophisticated as far as security.  From what you can tell, this box is on a closed circuit.  This whole station is just for sound from the stage.  Raw sound is mixed down and loaded onto chips to be edited together somewhere else.  There is some audio in memory though.  It seems like the sound was left on during the primary infestation.  There's about a month full of raw audio, all ready to be loaded on a chip or ten and taken out of there.  There are a lot of microphone channels hooked into the machine, but those mics are all down on the set.  There's also an outbound channel for speaking to the set below.  The edit software is archaic and overly specialized, a relic from a period of proprietary software for proprietary devices.  You could code your own easier than trying to convert this to a modern operating system.

Two things, I thought the elevator shafts were blocked off too?  I know Digger warned them about the goo and trash, was that enough to get them around it?  If so, cool beans.

Second, can Codemonkey find out how to shut down the security grid on the outside?  Might save us a long trudge back down.  Might even we can get a ride somehow.

Banking my Karma again, still can't really think of anything at the moment, but I figure a Charisma bump may be in order.

Uncouth is a bitch to buy off, but not terrible to just pay 20 karma for the group so you're no longer set to fail any social test.

The current terminal Code is on is cut off from the greater network, but you're moving into the parts of the tower that have power again.  All the glass doubles as solar collection.  The lower floors by the fire are coated black with cooled plasteel fumes from the blaze.  The upper floors will have automated... systems...

In case you're wondering, Holland is busy singing "Jesse" by Scott Walker to make himself depressed. 

Elvis Presley had a twin brother who died at birth, called Jesse. He would apparently often talk to his twin like he was there by his side and felt a lot of guilt that he'd survived while Jesse had died.

The riff in the background is supposedly a distorted, skewed version of Jailhouse Rock and the line "I'm the only one left alive" is actually an Elvis quote as well as a pretty good idea of the sentiment about Jesse the song is trying to put out.

Pretty depressing I wot.

Nothing I am aware of.

Since i got some paracritter related knowledge skills i took the liberty of assuming that Machete knows how astral sight works and all that.  Hope that's ok.  Let me know.

Jack doesn't trust just anyone. Taking an action to be "prepared" in case Gardi decides we skip out and someone wants to stop us. Nothin' personal..

N/P I consider most things from the base book to be general knowledge aka 1 hit.

If you're headed up, you can assume bought hits or make rolls.  It's all by the book.  Extended test = meters if you want to figure out how long it will take to climb up.  If you want to explore the upper floors, just let me know how you're going about it.
If you want to head straight for the top, or if you want to try busting into some of the rooms to see what kind of stuff you can find, either option is up to you.

I'm trying to make this a setting where you decide where to go and how you get there.  The closer you look, the more detail there will be.

I'm totally cool with buying hits for Gardener unless it's a situation where time is important. He's not planning on treasure-hunting floors unless a good reason presents itself... signs of an invae hive supercede monetary gain.

[Crossbow]

I am actually really curious about that footage that Code found, but I am not sure if he shared it with Digger.  Baring that the only things I am interested in at this point is some kind of control room for the security grid and the wine.

Feel free to write yourself to the top.  The important thing is what you want to do when you get up with the rest of the crew.  If you want to continue upward, that's another option.

Anything happening on our floor? I am following the scouting party. If there is nothing of note there let's move higher.
