I was off somewhere where I expected to have wifi coverage but due to the floods earlier in the year it wasn’t working anymore. I just got back in town this evening, so I’ll get caught up and have something up tomorrow.

No, it looks like they are still watching, just haven't replied for a day or so. Maybe ping them again?

That's no reasonable excuse for my silence (doctors and students are better for that, as far as it goes), but... basically I have some vaguely defined way to get us physically close to the house without being exposed. That's it. Doesn't cover Matrix or Astral stuff, though.

Bean
player, 85 posts Nuyen is my favorite language. Let's chat. Sun 8 Sep 2019 at 23:10 | Re: OOC Thread #2And I'm sorry for that. (And also sorry that I didn't get that more explicit apology into the previous post, for what it's worth).
Based on log-ins, we're looking at the following people still active:
Bean (probably ;) )
Bester
Chromium
Iris
Keys
Oberon (probably)
Rasputin
Sleight
That's a pretty reasonably sized team.
How do we want to handle planning, though? This is where SR and investigative games always seem to die online, because it gets too easy to just wait for somebody else, and delays push the problem farther and farther out of mind.
Keys has done some astral surveillance (and so has Sleight), and Chromium at least a bit of grounds surveillance. That leaves a Matrix sweep, and then we go in.
Do we want to run with the smash-and-grab during a cigarette break? It's efficient, uncomplicated, and would get us moving again.

Sleight
player, 121 posts Elvin Shaman Sun 8 Sep 2019 at 23:55 | Re: OOC Thread #2I think if the GM could make things move forward by giving feedback to those that have already done some 'legwork'. Matrix and Astral stuff happens much faster than actually walking around, as it were, but often facilitates the actual physical legwork by showing us where our gaps are and letting the matrix/astral people communicate to the rest of the team to make decisions on.
Once the GM gets back to us, we 'plan' over the radio, get the special ammo people, and then go for it when the time is right.

player, 125 posts Elvin Shaman Sat 21 Sep 2019 at 00:40 | Re: OOC Thread #2Been a bit busy with work and family stuff the last several days. I had hoped last night to put together a 'plan'....HAH! I would say I could get it done this weekend, but I know that is not going to happen either.
I think we need Big D to let Keys and Sleight (and anybody else doing leg work) the final pieces of information. Then we need Keys to tell us if he can Banish the Earth Elemental in the back yard. Sleight can help, but Sleight doesn't as big a dice pool as Keys...but some.
Once we decide how we want to go at them...cause I think the 3 regular guys are in excess to the mage whom has not poked his head out yet.
Any other suggestions?

Sleight
player, 129 posts Elvin Shaman Sun 13 Oct 2019 at 14:43 | Re: OOC Thread #2Just so the other players know, summoning doesn't take much time. Binding takes a lot of time (1 hour per force point or 6 hours in this case) and a lot of resources that neither mage has on them. Carrying around 300 rocks, chunks of glass, moss, etc for a Lv6 spirit binding is impractical.
Sleight gave the 10 drams worth of reagents to Keys to help him banish the elemental if he wanted it or summon a big spirit for the day without taking physical damage.
He has more 40 more drams on him.

I am game if the GM is game to just go with what we already have put together and move forward.
