Macduff fished some small change out of a pocket and hustled over to the nearest pay phone to call Miss Wright, to summon her with all urgency back.


Or even hotel phone if there's one available for guest use.

Excellent news!

Is all well, are you OK?

Myself, I caught the damn COVID for the second time about 2 weeks ago. Still unpleasant is the news.

Re: Statement 5: The Road to Hell

I did have a similar reaction. Read my first Debrief post from 11/05/24 and the GM's reply. Basically, Leo tried to fireball Mrs Evans but she transformed into the gate (in a rather Dr Who sounding special effect) so the fireball continued on and hit / winged / singed - the until then not seen - Sh...

Re: The Incident Room: General Chat

Irrelevant observation: I was delighted to see in the grim but (I thought) excellent film "Civil War", the young wannabe war photo-journalist Jessie was using a Nikon FE2, a very close contemporary of Skipper's F3. And Jessie was using pre-digital film tech due to the unreliability of the ...

Re: The Incident Room: General Chat

Cool. I thought perhaps Leo had been asked to make a POW roll to see something the rest of us couldn't.

So really, Short was just in the wrong place. What a shame.

Re: The Incident Room: General Chat

Can I just check what happened? Leo made a POW roll instead of CON, or was that just a typo and it was the CON roll? And then Leo fireballed Mrs Evans but hit the unloved Councillor Short instead? Where did Short come from? Or was he something only the two magic coppers can see? Just wanted to be cl...
