Post updated!  Bartja will free Hammer first if the science-bots aren't actively trying to stop him - then they'll make a dash for it!

Wow, rough time to jump in!  You guys all got cyber implants and all I got was a busted internal laser.  :D

Any chance they *added in something good* rather than just busting my darned zapper?

Hammer just tried to persuade a bunch of dumb viral bots!
I gotta be an optimist!!   :)

Just wanted to let you know that I will be in Pennsylvania for the next three days and I'm not yet sure of how often I'll be posting.  If you need to NPC to move the story on, please do.  I will be posting regularily Monday night.

Another attempt at 'con'-ing the Matrix.
:)

Red pill?  Or blue pill...?

"I don't need to take a pill."

"He doesn't need to take a pill."

FYI, I'll be on vacation until Monday.

Please post all of your first moves by the time I get back.  This robot is hostile and dangerous.

When he says "this robot", he doesn't mean Hammer.
Hammer is actually a fearful science nerd, not a combat type.
BUT he can learn...?  (If we live.)

LOL, not a bad idea!

She's got a MAX of [5] shots with the laser rifle set at 10SEU so we better hope we get damn luck and do something.  Might not be a bad idea to start moving towards the escape bays and I was thinking about a shot at one of the windows to depressurize the area but didn't want to take the chance.

Depressurize = bad for life, not bad for big-bad-robot

I think Desi has the skills to pick an ant off that thing...

In reply to Bartja Nemuco (msg #76):

Skills yes, ammo to do it, not so much...

will try & post tonight

FYI, if I don't post much until Monday, it's because I have to go out of town again tomorrow.

In reply to GM Heath (msg #79):

Have a good trip!!!

Um, been wondering if Hammer is infected w/virus?  Same question goes for all the players that got cyber implants.  Are we all 'carriers'?

Hmmmmmm...

TRICKY

I wonder if the leaping Vrusk buzz as the beetle-like winglets on their backs beat their vestigial hearts out.

No, you're not infected...that you know of.  :)

That's what SHE said...

LOL. Guess I walked right into that one...


I have been thinking a lot about the next adventure.  Rather than cause too many delays running through my adventure, we're going to do a hybrid.  In other words, we will start with my adventure on the space station, and it will then overlap with the next major adventure.  I'm hoping this will add extra dimensions to it while at the same time giving me freedom to make the published adventure more interesting.  And without causing too many delays.  For example, I thought the escaping the Pegasus part would play out in about 2-3 weeks of real time, but things never work out that fast.

Im here for the fun in whatever form it comes.

In reply to Kri'lik (msg #85):

I'll second that!  Loving the game so far and want more of it!

For the escape Pod computer - Bartja is willing to try it after the real computer experts.  I'm just waiting to see if he made it into the pod yet...

Well Im no expert! ZERO computer skills...

Well im no good at riddles...im just a doctor!

We may have to take two shuttles, if we can figure out riddles!

Despite being a robot, Hammer has no computer skills.
Seems like Mechanons should have some default abilities, but they don't!
Dangit.

I think we're held up by fear of getting the riddle wrong.  Let's try it - the worst that can happen is we're wrong and have to duke it out until we get the riddle right...
