Probably, but I'd prefer to wait until we get to a section that isn't a metal box suspended fifteen stories above ground, with cameras. I figure we'll get to the basement, you can deck this place, and we'll walk into the server rooms. Make one of the temp gauges malfunction or something simple like that.

you can build a jackpoint out of most anything that's connected to the mainline hardware with a B/R electronics 4 test.

there is a camera, but you happen to know that most systems are monitered automoniously.

Alright- if no one is watching (they might watch us, because we're a work crew, or because we're not all japanese, or just because security might be a little bit higher this week) then we can go for it.

The computer system might notice if we're screwing around with a jackpoint in the elevator, and notify a security decker, though...

Um Slow it only taken you a year to get to it lol.  Honestly I have no idea I am seeing signs of common sense then i see signs of big booboos.  Honestly seems like a balanced run.  Considering my characters generally have teammates whose idea of subtle is just using a pound of c4 or a force 4 powerball to blow off that door insead of 4 lbs or force 6.  That saying something when I see booboos.

Well the most obvious one is the lack of disguising your identities for a run.  I admit that this is a nitpic but the way our runs always went off we always tried to get as much information as we could on who we were impersonating.  That way we had there fingerprints mannerisms even their voice at times.  This made it easier for us to infiltrate the place and get access to what we wanted.  We were also big fans of invisibility spells enabling us to bypass certain securities.  As I said it just a nitpic.  The other goof I saw was the fact that you guys didn't went to more trouble disguising the most wanted of you.  A disguise kit even applied by an amateur still works.  Or you could go with the old classic pummel him until his face's shape is nowhere near its old one.  Another I observed was during the chopper raid you actually concerned yourselves with the safety of others.  Admiriable to say nothing of heroic toward the end but honestly a waste of time and resources.  I know that sounds cold and heartless but you are runners you can have that golden streak of good in you but in that situation it wasn't a good thing.  My character once instigated the second night of rage just to cover an extraction of a high level criminal boss.   It worked so good that everyone thought he died in the rioting.  Now I admit I wasn't aiming for that end result I just wanted a riot in the area not the city.  But honestly my character doesn't feel too bad about it because it led to a different outcome for Seattle than what is in the cannon 4th edition now.  Another goof I noticed was the Shiawase escape you did good avoiiding surveillance on the ground but considering the fact that you probably bought your car from them did it not occur to you that they might have it lowjacked and alll your regular contacts under a little surveillance?  

As I said nitpics and what not trust me everybody has major goofs I once blew up a mall to prevent lonestar to get a hold of a drone that traced back to me.  Unfortunately the mall while in a bad part of town was full of squatters.  Four hundred and seventeen killed and one of my friends managed to get LoneStar blamed but it was still my mistake.  I am truly enoying the game guys have fun.
