Isabel Mendoza Posted November 8, 2006 Share Posted November 8, 2006 I'm just posting here so you guys know I'm not totally MIA, but I've had a really terrible RL weekened, which has made me really busy this week as collateral damage. If Isabel really needs to make a contribution, I'll find time to post, but between the character not really being very talkative and that I haven't really been thinking about the game, I don't have anything much to add. Or much time to add it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Fox Posted November 11, 2006 Author Share Posted November 11, 2006 You guys have gotten the meet and great over with. What further would you like to do before moving on? I'm kinda at a loss for posting an update, because no one has really taken any actions. Possible actions at this point.1) Seems to be that Raina needs a computer and some astronomy references books/software to determine a date on the caves system's age.2) Carter needs some lab equipment to test the light fixtures or you guys need to take one to a lab somewhere.3) No one has initiated any investigations outside the current setting.I'm good with letting you guys continue to chat, but time is about to progress unless you guys want to take any of the actions listed above or anything else. Though you guys brought some food with you, this many novas have quite an appetite. Also, unless he returns I will begin running Jimmy's character Morgan (with a little bit of a re-write of his abilities) as an NPC since he hasn't been heard from in 3 weeks, it will also help move along the plot. So I'll give you guys till Monday evening and if I haven't heard anything I'll post a big update then.Any questions or thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Murphy Posted November 11, 2006 Share Posted November 11, 2006 Well Randall can be assumed to thouroughly search the place and take waht he can for later analysis in a lab. I've been waiting for somebody to respond before posting again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The White Rat Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 I had Omar investigate the dig team's campsite, and the light fixtures already. I will have him follow the Randall and help him remove (via Mega Strength) any fixures, if necessary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lyn 'Indigo' Ross Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 Guys,I'm withdrawing from the game due to time constraints. Raina is welcome to become an NPC.Sorry,pof Raina Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Fox Posted November 12, 2006 Author Share Posted November 12, 2006 Sorry to see you go Raina. We have at least 3 people that seem committed to posting regularly, I am good with proceeding with the game having only 3 if you guys want. I would welcome other players if you guys know of anyone that wants to join. I will run an NPC to help fill things out until we get some more folks.If you guys decide you'd rather not continue I can deal with that too. I would like to see anyone that is in the game try to post at least once a day though so things don't slow down(weekends excepted). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isabel Mendoza Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 I want you to know I'm still here. Although I've mostly retired from the other sections of the board, I'm doing my best to check up on the game once a day, and I would like to continue with it.

Mr Fox Posted November 13, 2006 Author Share Posted November 13, 2006 Cool. Glad you are still around. That makes 4 regulars then. Post any actions you guys plan to take by tomorrow afternoon. I'll make an update tomorrow night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Murphy Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 Randall is still in, he'll survey the remainder of the complex and photograph/viedograph what he can and if possible take one of the fixtures for further analysis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Fox Posted November 14, 2006 Author Share Posted November 14, 2006 I’ll give everyone 5 xp so far. You may spend the xp now or save it up.This isn’t really the place I’d planned to end this chapter, but with a couple folks leaving I’ve decided to go ahead and award some xp now, and move the plot along a little. I am making some assumptions on what people are going to be doing here and will be splitting the party up temporarily as you gather supplies and such. I hope you don't mind if I 'assume' what your character is doing, but since I didn't get too much specific input this is what I figured everyone would do.

Medianoche Posted November 14, 2006 Share Posted November 14, 2006 stumbles alongStill creeping about. I'll bank the xp for now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The White Rat Posted November 14, 2006 Share Posted November 14, 2006 Since Omar has 5 resources, I had him hire security for his own home. Also, he sent his dependent to Kurdistan to protect him. I hope these are viable options. I already had Omar pick up food and cash. Because Omar has cash, his movements will be more difficult to follow, so warping anywhere for more foodstuffs will be easy, and untraceable.I was thinking of giving Omar a few extra arms, but after reflection, I decided to save the XP for something else.

Mr Fox Posted November 15, 2006 Author Share Posted November 15, 2006 I was figuring that since the others didn't really take food that you probalby shared your food with them earlier, using up most of what you took along. This trip is a serious shopping trip to stock up for a few days or even weeks, depending on what you want. Sending your dependant to Kurdistan for safty is fine. Omar you have no problem setting up security for your place. They take one look at the condition of your place and decide to send out some of their biggest best armed guys.

Andrew Murphy Posted November 15, 2006 Share Posted November 15, 2006 OK SO who's apartment was ransacked? I got a PM about it so assumed it was my apartment and that is why it didn't go into the public part of the forum yet.I'll edit my last post as needed but can you clarify what is going on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Fox Posted November 15, 2006 Author Share Posted November 15, 2006 The warp to Houston was to Isabel and Estaban's apartment. Their apartment was the one you saw ransacked. Everyone else's but yours was also ransacked which they discover once they return to their homes. Morgan's was not ransacked either, but he doesn't know that since he is back at the cave (he's got cipher so they don't know about him). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Fox Posted November 23, 2006 Author Share Posted November 23, 2006 Looks like things are going pretty slow here for Thanksgiving week. I'll post an update in the next couple days, but won't get too antsy for replies till next week. Happy Turkey Day!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Fox Posted December 5, 2006 Author Share Posted December 5, 2006 Ok, guys, there are several hints/leads out there, but no one has said they are doing anything about them. I can't post an update if no one takes action. Possible leadsInvestigate other caves systemsSet up trap for bad guys claiming to have more technologyInvestigate the explosion at the laband possibily others that I'm not thinking of at the moment.You guys need to post saying what leads you are actually pursuing and how you are going about it so I can update. Keep in mind that I'm not the kind of ST that forces people along a predefined path. I tend to go with what the players choose to do and use that to get the plot to where it needs to be. But if you don't do anything, I can't get you to where you need to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The White Rat Posted December 5, 2006 Share Posted December 5, 2006 Omar has a contact at Baghdad University, who teaches history. Omar will see if he knows anything. Omar won't give up any specifics, just ask him, if he or his colleagues, have heard about strange caves or recently discovered historical sites of interest.

Mr Fox Posted December 13, 2006 Author Share Posted December 13, 2006 I need some input guys. Give me a detailed plan on the ambush please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omar Posted December 13, 2006 Share Posted December 13, 2006 I was waiting for the others to respond. Also, I thought we were going to start the investigation of the other explosions before the trap.If no-one posts by tomorrow, I'll atart a post into the investigations.

Mr Fox Posted December 13, 2006 Author Share Posted December 13, 2006 Either way is fine. I just need to know how you plan to go about what you are doing before I can post any updates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Murphy Posted December 15, 2006 Share Posted December 15, 2006 Randall will use his contacts to try and find a hacker for hire or if possible a clairvoyant with the skills needed to help them with thier investigation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thoranon Posted December 15, 2006 Share Posted December 15, 2006 Marcus will do the same thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omar Posted December 15, 2006 Share Posted December 15, 2006 If the others can't find a hacker or clarivoyant, Omar will use his considerable resources to contract NovaCom to get the information. Information wanted: educational backgrounds, known associations, business contacts, and any correspondences between them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Fox Posted December 21, 2006 Author Share Posted December 21, 2006 Sad news. Estaban will no longer be an active player. He will be missed. That leaves us with 3 regular posters and one semi-regular. That's certainly enough to warrant continuing the game, heck I'd continue it even if we only had 2 regulars.However, I'd really love to fill out our ranks a bit more. I'll post on the site asking for more players, but if you guys know of anyone that would like to join please send em our way. I could handle as many as 8 regulars without difficulty.Also, we are about to start a new chapter and award exp for this one. So now would be a great time if someone wanted to join the game.

Omar Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 Omar will shift his eufiber into the form of a one piece body suit. He will jump through the warp when Morgan opens it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omar Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 I'm not sure if he can run and alter his size, because it says N/A for Multiple Actions with Growth, and not yes or no.Also, he has Irresistable Force. Omar will expend an additional point of quantum for a +2 to the opponents difficulty to resist knockdown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Fox Posted December 22, 2006 Author Share Posted December 22, 2006 You can basically give me two actions to take. You had the highest initative so go ahead and take one action at the end of round two and the first action of Round 3.Hmm... I'll have to check the rules to see how that works, and whether you can't do multiple globes at one time. If not then I'll assume you attempt to do one guy then another, since you have two actions back to back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jameson (ST) Posted December 22, 2006 Share Posted December 22, 2006 Ouch 2 lvls of leathal?!? I'm glad I've got some hefty eufiber or I'd be on the next warp to a hospital! Ok, no more Mr. Nice guy, Carter will drop and roll up behind the soldier and try to cut his throat... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
