I'm not sure Copy and Sharing is actually going to work that way with the TacNet software. Unless PF allows TacNet software to be able to have that happen it was explaining that it's difficult to copy and share the software itself and it requires time to do so with protected software.

Considering that this is the version he got from his Mercurial backers, back when he was still working for the, I just assumed that copy protection had been broken already.

As for the rest, fine. Everybody, do what you want. Pirates are free. YOU ARE PIRATES.

Shall we start the actual mission? Everyone announce their intentions and leave/set up operations?

You know, I would hate it if this died before we could get into a proper fight.

Seriously, I'll have Ellen kick Spectre in the balls if that's what it takes.

Overcast · 06-13-2010, 02:33 PM

Be calm now, we're all just waiting for PF to get back. It has been a while since she has done anything around the forum and while we can get pretty far by ourselves we do need direction else we end up waxing idiotic the whole way through. Just chill, saving something terrible this should pick up once she returns.

Aerozord · 06-13-2010, 06:07 PM

plus doubt she'd be looking forward to 5 pages of posts

Krylo · 06-15-2010, 08:57 PM

Guys, PF sends her deepest and most heart felt apologies for the delay. Her family decided to haul her off on an unscheduled vacation to a very interesting place given current world events.

She has access to neither her books nor any real privacy to make posts for us at this time.

She'll be back, PROBABLY on Sunday, so be expecting a post sometime early next week.

Keep yourselves busy/interested in the meantime. Read through the fluff again, make some characters just for fun.

Because if you guys let this die while she has been hauled off I will personally murder all of you.

Overcast · 06-15-2010, 09:48 PM

Like I haven't been doing that already. Revamped Daniel the persuader but changed him into Div the philosophical master of disguise. Made a(incredibly inefficient) character who uses three synths, skinlink, three particle beam rifles and a swarmanoid to participate in beam spam on his opponents. And for amusement I even game them all modular design so when all else fails they can mighty morph their asses into one terribly large superbot. All while personally roleplaying random actions and backstories for each with only myself and my infinite imagination to spur me on.

I'm more amped about continuing on this thing than I have been about any RP for a long while.

Geminex · 06-15-2010, 11:06 PM

And speaking of continuing the RP, since when is it my turn to post? I had completely missed that. You people need to tell me about these things. Or alternately, I have to check the RP board as well as the RP-discussion board, but that'd take actual effort, so fuck that.

Anyway, posting.

Hey, sorry about my delay... Agh, you know how it goes, you're in bed and you wake up, and your mom comes in and goes "Hey Ashley, we're going on a trip to the gulf!"

And you groggily slap your head agaisnt your hand and, recalling the gulf is a freaking mess, go "Right, have fun." and then freeze in TERROR as she responds "What do you mean, you're coming with us!

" wearing a rape face.

Right.

Riiight. Because vacation to the gulf is so cheap right now when everyone else is cancelling their reservations on account of the largest natural catastrophe in the history of... Well, gulftastrophes. Whatever.

Anyway, I'm back, and I'm going to clench my teeth together and read everything again.

EDIT: I don't think I have enough LSD to keep this all straight. Someone, a list of what everyone's trying to do, please?

Overcast · 06-23-2010, 07:27 PM

Since the last post...

Situational questions included whether or not Spectre could just start handing out his tactical software. Also for me if there was a communication area that Daniel could entangle his farcaster.

Nobody seems confident in anybody being the leader of the outfit when they aren't in proxy control. We discussed the law background to public nanfabber use, the possibility of making a sting for whoever might be trying to buy mental implants, the asking about of the scumborn, Daniel has convinced himself that his mesh usage might have made him noted by the enemy and so he is going to try to get himself targeted all by himself, and keep trying to get in contact with his buddy. Ellen and Spectre are going to head off to that contact that isn't reporting about abductions.

I'm a bit flighty mentally right now but I think that is what is happening.

Arhra · 06-24-2010, 09:17 AM

To summarise the critical dice rollings/equipment reshuffling:

Ellen's muse, Butler, is Researching Security AI's and Ghostrider modules.
Ellen instructed Butler to do a background check on her teammates.
Daniel's muse, Anthony, is trying to get in touch with Dr Syren to arrange a meeting.
Lind's muse, Riza, is Researching the station's exact laws concerning the CM.
Lind's still working on upgrading firewall and exploit programs. (not important in this time frame)
Spectre's muse, Kerrigan, is sending copies of the tactical network software around.
Tyrfing is Researching info on the missing biomorphs.
Tyrfing's muse, Helvor, is doing a preliminary search on traffic patterns (see if activity surge can be linked to a small number of ID's or a physical location).

Information we might already have that needs more detail:
- The two news articles
- Anything Henric already knows about the nanofabricator.

ACTION PLAAAAN
Ellen: Seeing her friend, Milo. Will help with body language analysis in case missing biomorphs are in different bodies.
Spectre: Stalking Ellen, hiding nearby to monitor.
Lind: Walking around asking about any strangeness on the barge, researching traffic spike and missing biomorphs (including spime database) on mesh.
Tyrfing (Alpha): RESEARCH EVERYTHING. First priorities are anything on missing biomorphs and traffic spike.
Tyrfing (Beta): Hanging around to provide implant technobabble for Daniel with her relevant degrees.
Henric: Contacting friend about missing nanofabricator.
Daniel: Contacting Dr Syren about blacklisted guy. Showing off his shiny Remade body as bait.
Desmond: ???
Damian: ???

I have a partially done more complete thing, but it is late and I need sleep.
