Cool Ingo.   Thanks for checking on that.

How about now?

Nope.  Only the option to "quote" my own posts.   

Thought I can edit this one.  Seems I'm still in that "window" of opportunity for this post.

Moving to private messages to troubleshoot...

KV:

My 'standard suite' of programs is as follows:

Analyze
Armor
Attack
Command
Exploit
Reality Filter

My Reality Filter pool (Reality Filter 6 + Response 6) is 12.  The rule is an opposed test as soon as you enter the node vs their pool (System + Response).  Success means I get +1 Response while in that node, failure means -1 Response.

[kv]

I'm pretty sure you're going to get that response bonus- and I don't need a knockdown roll for you (already prone), so you should be good.

I still need Body tests for Ruski and Bull. If you haven't updated by tomorrow night, I'll roll and post the results and update this schwarma.

Kid did you need another Initiative roll like Bullet did?   Or will we just be using the ones we made before?  From your post it doesn't seem like it but I wanted to ask. 

[Ruski]

I'm not going to get a chance to put up a post from anything more than my phone. you are welcome to figure out the rolls for me.

Sorry I have been laid out with a bad stomach flu.  This is the first time since the fifth that I feel well enough to read.  So if you had to post for me that is fine.  I don't know if I am going to be feeling up to posting for a little while to come.  Just letting you know what is going on.

[kv]

Bull, sorry to hear you're feeling sick. That's not fun at all- feel better, and come back to us soon.

Ruski, I'll throw up a post right now, so don't worry about it- I know you have limited connectivity on the weekends.

Yogi, no I don't need a new initiative; we'll just use the existing one.

Posted my thing.

 Yogi, I noticed I have two 'first round' actions listed for you- the perception test for earlier, and the machine-gunning. Which would you prefer take place on the first initiative pass?

I guess it would be the attack.  I'm a bit confused though.  The perception check was done before the wall was blown in and the combat actually started before initiative started.   If my perception is wrong let me know. 

[kv]

During the 'first round,' you were each limited to 'one action,' a nebulous term that caused some confusion. Ruski thought it meant on initiative pass worth of actions, while Ingo and Bull followed more with my idea that it was a little movement and one action.

Yogi, I took your one action as readying the weapon, and pushed the perception check into the first round, like I was planning with the rest of Sly's sprint. But then you posted an attack, which is what caused my confusion.

In the future, I'll try and stick to the typical rules instead of mashing up like I would at the table. Sorry for the confusion.

Rastire was always going to die at the start of combat. I rolled, to be fair, and it ended up being a 15dv with four successes versus a girl with almost no armor and a very low body. This was just using a shock-and-awe tactic, timing the power hit with the entry of the drone. The real group will be here in a couple rounds.

Again, sorry for the confusion. If you have other questions, let me know.

[Yogi]

Gotcha.   Confusion cleared.  Let's rock 'n roll.

[Bullet Sponge]

I've been wondering what would have happened if I had tackled her to the floor using my body as a meat shield instead of offering the limited protection of my jacket and trying to stay mobile. Would the drone have then turned and targeted us in the corner....?

Anyway, sorry if I caused confusion by rolling Init again. KV said "start the real initiative order" and I took that to mean (like I've seen a few GMs do in the past) that the dramatic explosion and entry of the drone sort of rocked everyone's socks off and we all had to regain our wits and gets moving after a momentary mental stumble (aka roll init again).

Also, I'll be fleshing out the details (and adding a little color commentary) of my actions once we start describing what we want for the full round.

About the modifying of my previous posts that Yogi was having issues with I've noticed that the only time I get that option is if nobody else has posted since my last. This part of my comment is being done as a modify from a post an hour ago, but I was the last 1.

Ingo and I figured it out, well mostly Ingo.   There was a 15 minute timer that started when a post was made.   Anytime within that 15 minutes editing the post was fair game.  After that the boards protocols took the ability away. 

Ingo disabled that 15 minute timer Friday evening.
