Sure, I was giving the others some time to do some of their own work, to build up clues. Investigation can take a bit of time - unless you have Fast Tasks or something like that? However, I'll find out how many successes you have, and then I can give you a piece of information in each post.

Research roll - last number is the mega ...1d10=5, 1d10=5) = 3 successes.

I'll feed you information in my next few posts about it. Sorry if it seemed like I forgot about you. frown

Everyone else:
This is a good place to ask: I have the original groups character sheets, but only piecemeal for the others. Even if you're not one of "my" players, would you please send me your character sheet via PM and copy Titan and Fox on it as well? That way, we all have it. If you know you've done this already, please don't worry about it.

If you got 5 sux on your activation roll and you have Q3 that would make your FF active at 13/13. With Stamina 5 mega 2 that gives you a base of 7/3 so I am guessing your Eufiber is at two dots for the base of 9/5. The reason I mention this is because a base of 9/5 added to a force field of 13/13 would give you a total soak of 22/18, not 18/14.

What it looks like to me is that you forgot that each success on a mega die is equal to two successes. If you counted the two successes from that as only one each you would have gotten the 18/14.

Hmmm...Looking further at your rolls it looks like you didn't specify that you used 1 of your mega die to bring the difficulty down to 6. As is your roll would be only 1 normal success and 1 mega die success. So yes that would be 18/14 and the error is it should say 1 success after the second roll.

However, if you DID use one mega die to reduce the difficulty to 6, you would still have 1 mega success but now you would have 4 normal successes. That would make your force field add a soak of 15/15 for a final total of 24/20.

So yeah there is definitely a mistake in there but Im not sure which one it is...

--------------------

MODLY NOTE:

Before anyone asks, I moved this thread. Sky, since this is the first time you did this, I'm going to assume that this was an error. Please check where you're posting more closely in the future. Thanks --- DAWN, OOC

Sky, Nope no mistakes on my part. I clearly show what I got in my rolls.

Base soak is 7B/3L w/ 2 eufiber

I got 1 sux from my regular dice,
(03:01:07) ChatBot: (katalyst) rolls 7d10 and gets 1,4,6,6,5,6,7. 1 sux

And two for rolling a 7 with my Mega.

(03:01:56) ChatBot: (katalyst) (Mega Dice)rolls 2d10 and gets 7,6. 2 sux

FF is (Quantum 3)+ 2/per sux 3 sux =6 for a total of nine.

9+9= 18 9+5= 14

Give me some credit, I can do basic math.
BTW you should have posted that response in this thread

Darned good question. I'd say that it is not common knowledge yet, but it is possible that in the testing process with the Aeon doctors some of you might have discovered it. Titan is the final say of course.

When the head GM kinda drops out of sight, so do the players. I've seen this before on board games, and with as good as this game is, most of us will still be here when he gets back. I would say that there has been some attrition though.

Or, in other words, I'm still here...

(Oh, and Titan, fix RL before you come back. We'll wait, no rush.)

Just being patient while Titan gets his new job and hectic situation sorted. I've no doubt he loves us and his game and has all sorts of ideas that shall be unleashed upon us as soon as he is able to sit back down at the computer.

Good posts btw Jaunt.

Titan and Fox are both out of commission...

Only Carver's keeping this thing afloat now. frown

It's a shame, because it was going so beautifully.

Yes, I am. I had been keeping up with just the folks in Chapter 2. Given how long it is, I could try to start up with everyone else, but... (and this is a big but) I have no idea where Titan was going with the future folks.

Speaking as having a PC in the future, I am ultimately OK you taking over Dawn. You have a good mind for stories, so I am sure you could come up with something based on where everyone has left off.

To me, the direction seemed to be getting us all to our home time eventually. Then again, there are unrevealed elements hinted at.

Of course, I hope Titan and Fox make it back, but RL is taking priority for them.

well, as far as the immediate, Joe was going to train (though I wouldn't necessarily be opposed to a description of the training and how well he did). As for where he was going after that, or even if he was going to be allowed to finish... beats me.

I haven't re-read them recently, but from what I can remember Gwyn was still talking to the Chief Justice - Renee Byrnes.

I thought that the future Slider was grabbing some rest or something, then would be trying to get us all back together in one place?

No offense to Dawn whatsoever but I am willing to wait until Titan remembers he loves us and comes back to finish the stories he had in mind. Having said that, If Renee comes back, she and I can finish our fiction in the present time.

Agreed... and while Dawn is great it'd be unfair and unrealistic to expect her to replace two other ST's. That'd be tripling her work.

I'm really in two minds about your offer, Dawn. I really appreciate it and would love to move on with Fahrenheit. Things were getting really interesting there.

It would be really nice to hear from Titan - even if it's only a short notice. I can wait, that's not the problem - it is just a pity that this great game has slowed down like this. I hope Titan comes back eventually and we can pick it up from where we left.

So in that case I was waiting on Nathan and the other to react to Jay, but other than that he was going to head over to the sub.

Hey, quick heads up. I know, I know, and I'm as frustrated as anyone. As most of you know, I am selling advertising in my area. Right now, and for the last couple of months, we have been canvassing Dover, DE for the phone book there. That is an hour and forty five minutes from where I live. That means that I get up at 5:30 to get ready and be there by 8. I get off at 7, and am home around 9:30/9:45. I get half-Saturday and all-Sunday off, but I have been spending that time with my family and running errands and whatnot. We were supposed to end the canvas on September 16, so I wasn't that worried about missing a lot of time on here, but since then it has been "Next Monday...Wednesday for sure...By the first, absolutely...one more week..." It's ridiculous. Gas is killing me, the time away from my family sucks, and last (and least, let's be honest), I have completely ignored the game. But now, for sure, we have ended the canvas, and will be starting a new canvas in Ocean City on Monday. Ocean City is
