Re: (GMB) OOC
Ok, in no particular order...
Welcome aboard WinstonP, welcome back to the Captain and I am good with having Llewellyn back on board.
I think based on your descriptions Harwood is more likely to have document analysis, given his...extralegal proclivities in the book sphere. I shall swop out textual analysis now.
I will get on wrap up and posting re the night/morning.

Welcome aboard, Justin!
In other news,Seon has clarified with me that s/he has exams for the next two weeks and asked me to NPC Laura until then. Let us assume that Laura was last seen following the mysterious Spaniard in the direction of the west end, and has not been seen since...

A good (well, I thought so) article on London's history and curiosities (including bookshops) in today's New York Times, here.

Re: (GMB) OOC
I'm sure that Grant’s Military Bookshop has the volume Curlew wants in stock, but is he important enough to the plot that I should have a squiz volume in stock? How much should I butter him up?
Re: (GMB) OOC
Just like the royal mail, neither rain nor snow nor gloom of night shall stop the plot getting through eventually, but don't ask about the hairy green things with teeth.AndrewTBP wrote:I'm sure that Grant’s Military Bookshop has the volume Curlew wants in stock, but is he important enough to the plot that I should have a squiz volume in stock?

Curlew is a published author in his own right, with a newspaper column, well connected among Fullerites. Does that answer your question? You don't think that I'd just fling random npcs at you until something resembling a plot emerged out of the chaotic, primordial soup, do you? (shifty look)
Seriously, like all things in ToC, whether it's important to the plot partly depends on whether you decide it's worth spending points on - that is to say, if Curlew represents the sort of angle you wish to approach on. if you want a squiz, how about an edition signed by Goring, bound in red morocco embossed with the rods and axe motif?
Re: (GMB) OOC
My vote is that, as a shop, we spend points and give him the squizziest version going. We are a military bookshop after all.

Promises, promises, promises. Sorry guys, I was hoping to get back into it a week ago but got waylaid with work. Am now endeavouring to catch up! - Andy
Re: (GMB) OOC
Anyone waiting on others, feel free to put in your Saturday night/Sunday morning, add details to the bookshop, etcetera.
Re: (GMB) OOC
Ok. I have been waiting for people to post on the Sunday thread so I could make something happen, but I get the feeling that people are waiting for something to happen before they post. So I will make things happen and assume you are all (except Laura) there to see them.
Re: (GMB) OOC
Nothing to do with the game, but I feel like boasting, because I just won the Delta Green list's annual competition for short modern Cthulhu scenarios. You can read all the scenarios here: http://fairfieldproject.wikidot.com/dgm ... arios-2012 Mine is "Agent Purple's Green Box Blues".

Re: (GMB) OOC
Dah, IC is still screwing with my continual attempts to join up with their merry band. I think I managed to roll this as a guest, let me know if this goes wrong somewhere and I will try again.
(Adding 1 point) http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/search/1025318/
I should really start trusting my stability apparently.

Re: (GMB) OOC
Actually, I think it would make more sense if rolls were in the other topic, as that way they stay linked to the incident in question. You can set them off from in-character text with italics or the Spoiler button.WinstonP wrote:Do we make our rolls here or in the other topic?
I'd also appreciate it if people would describe their reaction after making (or failing) the roll.
e.g.
Grant stands, blinking in puzzlement. "Well, that was... odd"
