I would just like to echo the sentiments so far. Superb job Taavi, really enjoying banging my head against strange cults and stranger personal theories. I certainly could give neither the time nor the proper knowledge of the system to bring this to a conclusion, and I certainly don't just want to be given the answers. I need to realise them in a sanity blasting moment of horror which ends my ability to function as a rational human being. In the game, obviously...

Happy to wait till August, and will be ready and raring to pick it up on the other side. Hope your life calms down a little without our demanding natures in it.

Thank you everybody for your kind words! Allow me to apologise again for bringing things to a screeching halt, but I'm rather out of hours in the day. August it is then. Hey, it's only half as long as the wait for the next Hobbit movie...

August is fine by me too. Work hard in Paris, James, and be successful!

I'm happy to wait until August as well. My upcoming wedding in late March will have me pretty busy and somewhat off-line until mid-April anyhow.

Hi all,

Just letting you know I have now returned to Australia, still plan on restarting in August - I hope you'll all still be on board!

James

Hurrah old chap. Still here

Still here!

I totally missed this. HERE!

So you are fluent in French now? . . .

I wouldn't say fluent. More conversational than I was, perhaps.

You should have said: "Parfait, monsieur."

Hi Guys, sorry, typically I got sidetracked at exactly the wrong moment. Will try to start posting tomorrow. - Andy

Yes, sorry. Went on holiday to perhaps the only house I know in the UK (well Wales...) without internet, and then onto a place with internet but no computer access. Will get on my next moves now.

Hey all. Sorry for the slow updates - I just returned to full-time work last week and am feeling exhausted, but as I get back into the rhythm, the spice will flow.

Is there a seven dials day 3 thread or shall i/we post in the day 2 thread that was last posted in, in December?

Long John is hopping over to Seven Dials, too.

I have made a new thread for the journey to Seven Dials, day 3 - "Down these labyrinthine streets".
Sorry (again!) for slow start. Apparently I need new reading glasses which is why computer work has been tiring me out so much.

I had the same thing about two year ago - anything over 30-45 minutes in front of the screen and I was getting splitting headaches. Readers helped, but my eyes are different, and now my prescription glasses have different lenses for each eye. Long distance in one and short in the other - can't remember which is which off the top of my head. Makes contacts interesting if you get them mixed up

Hi Taavi,

I'm trying to tabulate all of the pts Jory has spent so far. This is what I've come up with:


Day 1:
2 pts Evidence Collection on a certain piece of paper.
1 pt Streetwise at the Palace Tavern.
2pts Bookshop Stock.


Day 2:
1 pt Stability (Wellington)
1 pt Bureaucracy (Kings College Hosp)
1 pt Evidence Collection (Bermondsey Sq)
1 pt Evidence Collection (Wellington)
1 pt The Knowledge (Kings College Hosp)
1 pt Oral History (Smith, Sabini's goon)
1 pt Stability (Bull & Bear)
2 pts Stealth (Bull & Bear)
2 pts Sense Trouble (Bull & Bear)
2 pts Stability (Bull & Bear)


Jory will be able to refresh his Stealth overnight but I don't think any of the others can be refreshed in mid adventure?


Taavi or team, please tell me if I've used up a pt I shouldn't have or have missed something!


BTW, Jory will use his 4 XP to get Library Use 2, Textual Analysis 1, Filch 1, if that's OK.


Andy

Taavi: Does Jory think the Brit Library would be the best place to do some trawling through newspaper back issues? Or is there a better option?

(Now that Jory has rediscovered his long forgotten University skills, he's keen to start spending those Lib Use pts!)
