I was going to get a turn post up tonight but my ass is kicked from assembling a new desk (and moving the old one to a co-worker's house).  Household Six has designated tomorrow night as grocery night, so I may not get the next turn up until Saturday.

I know that you are just giving the Lizard King a chance to respond, Teg.  So, good on ya, Mate!

What can I say?  I take care of my people.  For certain values of "my" and certain other values of "take care of."  ;)

Test test... this thing on?

Posting works, character sheet works... Thanks for getting me situated Teg :)

I'm just gonna leave this here:

http://fightersweep.com/1460/x-files-edition/

I will likely be offline until, realistically, Monday. If it'll be any longer, I'll try to post to that effect from my phone.

NP.  Hope all goes well with the move.

Well, we're in the new place, but it hasn't been easy. Two days of busting my ass, following by a day in bed with a nasty stomach virus, followed by two more days of busting my ass and we're still only 25% settled in. So far, this summer vacation has been anything but. After an insanely frustrating couple of days (scheduling issues complicated by Memorial Day), I finally got the internet to work. It's a long, boring-ass story so I won't trouble you with the details but, as a highlight, I did successfully- using nothing but a photo I took on my phone of a functional one- rewire a faulty phone jack so that I could get my desktop on to the net. It worked, obviously, but that was literally five minutes ago so...

It's going to take a while to catch up on everything and start posting again, but I'll try to put a dent in my PbP obligations tomorrow. Thanks for your patience.

Yeah, my week hasn't been as bad as Rae's, but my work schedule has been a little scattered and I'm running up against some deadlines on dealing with Dad's estate.  I will try to get turns posted for everyone tomorrow.  I hope my inadvertent hiatus hasn't quelled anyone's interest.

In reply to Tegyrius (msg # 49):

No worries mate...RT first and all that jazz...we'll still be here.

Cheers

Sorry to hear things have been rough for folks - I'm a pretty patient so, take your time, sort your stuff and get around when you get around :)

Re-engaging.  Again, I apologize for the delay.  Friday night turned into "prepare the house to receive inherited furniture," followed by yesterday's goat-rope of "load a bunch of disassembled hardwood antiques into a rental van with no damage" and today's thrilling recitation of "reassemble said antiques and shoehorn them into the house."

Make any final preparations and we'll slide ahead to the investigation at the OZ Minerals office.

Andrey, meanwhile, has his own lead to follow for now...

XCOM 2 trailer released today!!  WOOT!

New series of Strike Back starts this Wednesday...also WOOT!

Well, there goes all productivity for the month of December.

Also: hell, yeah, the return of the Snakemen!



Le sigh.  Season 3 still not available on iTunes.  I'm hoping it drops concurrently with the DVD release on August 4th.

The intel guys can get fake IDs to support cover identities, FYI.

Gonna be anther day or so before I can reply. I'm up for a new position at work and I could potentially double my salary but it's going to require a lot of extracurricular study for a few days.

Acknowledged. I'll drag your arc a little farther along... kinda feels like I left you without a significant decision point anyway.

Good luck on the upgrade!

And first episode has just aired...obviously I shall be spoiler free...but lookin' good...

(What season are you up to btw? I'm now on 5 here, but first season was (I think) a UK only production with Richard Armitage (Thorin in the Hobbit) and Andrew Lincoln (The Walking Dead) and didn't feature Sullivan Stapleton / Phillip Winchester)

The numbers are different here because Cinemax didn't pick up the Richard Armitage season.  So your "Season 2" - the first with Stapleton and Winchester - is our "Season 1."

Here, our Seasons 1 & 2 are available on DVD/iTunes; Season 3 aired on Cinemax last year and is about to be available on DVD.

OK, I'm now on the 4th Winchester / Stapleton series. Over here the Cinemax co productions get snappy titles - first one was Project Dawn, followed by Vengeance and Shadow Warfare. The new one is called Legacy.

And somewhat unusually Sky TV have released the first 4 episodes to their On Demand platform already (usually they only go to On Demand after they've aired on TV). So I need to decide whether to download all four and binge on them then wait until the end of June for episode 5 or ration myself to an episode a week.

It's not critical just yet, but did any of the PCs pick up weapons from Bannon's cache?

Seb definitely didn't.

Negative.  But only because none came back with our away team.  Michael will arm at the earliest opportunity, especially after signal detection.

Also, sorry Dave, I buggered up my last post and should have notified Sev of the signal.  Somehow I forgot he was still in the ops center.
