OOC: General Discussion.

A chance occurrence in London's Heathrow Airport leads to a desperate search to find answers to terrible lost knowledge.

I didn't ask for a solicitor until after seeing the CCTV footage (which in my case wasn't actually incriminating), and it wasn't because of that.

Oh I'm not saying it was wrong in anyway, it is eminently sensible. It was more the fact the GB players all dociley accepted things as were and allowed themselves to be rather roughly interrogated, under circumstances where any solicitor would have, I believe laughed at the police.

For the record, I offered to wave the council if they'd include me in on the investigation ... and they denied me. Bastards. I hope my representation brings them hell.

Library Use

Gents as I suspect this is going to come up frequently. Here is how I generally handle Library Use

1) Library rolls will always involve a time element from hours to days.
2) The more generalised a search the longer it will take before you get a Library Use roll to see if you come up with something useful.
3) Even a very specific search will take an hour or so, while a more generalised search may take several days or more.
4) More thorough searches will increase the chances of success but also increase time.
5) Less thorough searches will decrease the time but never below a specific threshold and will always make the chance of success more difficult.
6) Multiple people working together on the same research still only get 1x Library Use roll but can either decrease the overall search time or make the search more thorough.

fyi - for the next 2-3 weeks I'll be quite busy at work... and that might mean less posting for me. If I'm holding anything up, please feel free to NPC me as necessary.

Gents,

Feel free to post (or not) any research discoveries you make to the news forum, it'll save time when it comes to bringing one another up to speed.

And I was thinking that the post of Jacob eating bacon was weird. It was supposed to be Jason and Clay and not Jacob and Greg.

Hello guys, I´m retiring from my games and want to say thanks for the time lapsed with you.
Have fun and stay alive. The darkness is out there.

Bye Syrinx.

On another note I haven't heard from either Impintraining or BentheRat or for some time, I'll give them a couple more days then I'll move matters along without them.
