"I'll take a blonde and a soybeef one."

Quote
"Maybe we should make this conversation a bit more private first though"

Sterling blinks a few times before an ARO pops in front of all of your visions

Mac (who obviously has no datajack and doesn't wear any trodes) seems a little puzzled. "Yeah, sure. I think if we just walk in the corner over there I guess we won't be overheard."

He briskly walks over to the indicated place, looking back for the rest of the team to follow.

Says on your sheet you have a pair of trodes :P

More importantly though you dont have an image link so can see my AROs anyway. Savages, savages i say!

He does have trodes, but that doesn't mean he's wearing them all the time. He's not computerophibic, but the idea of something constantly sending waves through his place is freaking him out. So no: He's not wearing probes, doesn't have an image link or any other means to see your trodes. He's all natural.


By the way: Wasn't this supposed to be the thread for those who said they would post at least once every second day? Some didn't post in ages...

yeah not sure whats going on. Raven said she would have trouble posting in the near future, but 8 bit is on every single day posting in several threads. Not sure what the deal with that is. Was hoping things would pick up after Christmas :(

Looks like its you and me against the world Volker! And by the  world i mean Tacoma based cartels...

*sigh* At least I like your char ;-)
Okay, let's just bounce back and forth. RR (who's actually a He) said that Dave is going to be passive, so I guess we'll just begin to talk, hope that 8-bit will hope on and eventually listen to what silent Dave thinks about this.
I'd prefer it more interactive, but I guss we won't finish our sandwiches before Easter if we just keep waiting.

Yeah, sorry about that. Got one up now, and I should be good on continuing posting now.

I check the threads every day, even if I can't always post something right away.  Right now, I'm just letting you guys do your thing.

Sure. I think the most important ones are 8-bit and Imveros, because RR already said that Dave wouldn't contribute that much.


Apart from that: Are Binary and Sterling following MacC, or do they remain where they stand?

I thought we were all sitting, but for Binary, no, he's not following yet. Maybe after a quick mental conversation with Imveros, he might.

yeah for some reason i thought we were all sitting while ordering. I just posted IC with the new thought that we were ordering at the kiosk and then heading to our seats :)

Some tests to perform.

Quote from: 8-bit
Current Grid: Seattle Emerald City

Attribute Array: Attack 3, Sleaze 5, Data Processing 6 (7), Firewall 5 (6)

Programs currently running: Rating 4 Agent, Browse, Virtual Machine (Toolbox, Firewall)

Performing a quick Matrix Search for General Information myself. Threshold 1; I applied the -2 penalty to Obscure information. If I'm working cross-grid, apply a -2 penalty.

Performing General Information Matrix Search (Computer 5 + Intuition 5 - Obscure 2): 8d6t5 2 [1, 6, 5, 4, 3, 3, 3, 3]

Search takes 15 seconds, comes up with any General Information I could get while searching. I'm assuming I'm using keywords like "drugs", "Tacoma", "cheap drugs" etc. Whatever would be relevant to the situation.

Getting Agent to perform a Matrix Search for Limited Interest information. Threshold 3; I applied the -2 penalty to Obscure information. If I'm working cross-grid, apply a -2 penalty.

Agent Performing Limited Interest Matrix Search Test: 8d6t5 0 [1, 4, 2, 2, 2, 4, 2, 1]

Well that didn't do anything. It takes it 15 minutes to run this test, with no information showing up.

Adding in the time it would take to adjust all of this; it would require 6 Combat Turns, which equates to 30 seconds. Meaning that the first one ends up taking 45 seconds, while the second one takes 15 minutes, 30 seconds.

Trying to contact my coyote contact Domino Walker (2 connection, 5 loyalty) 

I never gave you any back story on him so here i go:

He and Sterling were friends back in the Sioux nation and both left together at the same time. He was always a wiz driver and had a sixth sense for trouble. When they got to Seattle they attempted to hit the shadows together, but Domino was never good in a fight. Always wanted to cut and run. Emphasis on the run. He took up street racing but his heart was never in it. After winning his first race he was approached by a man with a proposition. A man of Domino's skills and ethnicity could make a lot of dough running items discreetly across the boarder into Salish-Shidhe lands. Best part was, he could even pick and choose his cargo.

Domino has spent the last few years running medical supplies, luxury goods, and consumer electronics into Council lands. Sterling told him he could be making bigger money running drugs and weapons, but Domino always insisted you couldn't put a price on a good nights sleep and the ability to look at yourself in the mirror

Volker:

There were no pictures.  Just names, addresses and commcodes
