Ok lets set some rules so that we all don't become real life
enemies.

I'm in favor of Flute getting a little snubbed. Jonesy can take the
brunt of Frypp's new IC.

I won't be around this weekend very much so that's why I'd like to wait to
Monday or Tuesday.

Let me know

It is gettin' kinda ugly, kinda fast, but this is what Freddy lives
for. Whenever he got into this kinda stuff with the Whistler, Freddy
actually appreciated that somebody had the fortitude to stand up to
him.

Works for me. GP, that work for you (since I'm guessing you'll want
to write it up)?

Ok, well, Chris is defending his honor here. She will probably be good enough
(I don't know how awesome she is) to get through most of the FryppSec stuff,
but Chris'll be lurking around the system himself, and if she runs into him,
she's gonna get -trounced-.

On the basis of experience alone, if nothing else!

Include Basilisk in the defending team. He's a pretty good decker,
and has a bunch of European programs that Flute would certainly have
never seen before. GP, I can send you a detailed description of Bas
and his programs if you want it. Bas is also getting fed up with Flute's
posing, and wouldn't mind showing her that ability without experience
can get you in a lot of trouble.

Just to make things a little more interesting, Mercury will be around, lurking
but not taking an active part in anything. He'll disappear if attacked and
seems only to be watching, waiting, and analyzing. His icon is similar to the
T2 bad terminator, but instead of taking on other forms, he is silver,
reflective, and has no facial or bodily features beyond the basic human shape.

Firts: THE Nex is flute's guardian but Zac has control until nex
gets out of lala land.

Second: Zac and Jonesy are on Flutes side.

Third: Let's say that Flute and Tarleton don't meet.

What did OS^2's poem mean.

Finaly I'll mail a descrip of My sides decks and progs plus icons
to everybody.

I would like if possible to again let Jonesy take the blunt of
hits, Zac is better than average deck, and Flute is the best of
the three.

'Poem'? *laughs* That's the way that the 'decker' part of OS^2
really talks. And if you want to know, have a character ask, online.

Buzz knows Nex VERY WELL...If Flute gets hurt in any way and Nex finds
out...the person(s) responsible will most likely die. Buzz will probably
step in and dump Flute, especially if she is in trouble.

It's gonna be real, real hard to avoid Chris, because he'll be sitting there
watching Flute's every move. If she steps too far out of line *wham*.

You're gonna kill Chris for giving Flute a bloody nose through biofeedback?

My ass! If some annoying prick kid comes along and starts insulting Chris's
*honor* (which is what he thinks is on the line here), he's going to play fair,
but at the same time, play to win. Thoroughly.

I'll let Jonesy get hits. Flute can get hit a little. Jonesy is running
point. Zac is running diversion and Harlequin and Flute are gonna
make the real steal.

But, just a second ago you said that Flute runs point and Jonesy is there
for assistance. I give up. I just dont understand or want to.

*urp* Harlequin is going to help make the steal?
Harlie is worried something might happen to her,
as he recognises a large array of deckers steeped
in talent. He's worried that some thing/one will
go to far, go wrong, etc. He figures also that
Freddie has enough talent arrayed against her that
he could give her some ideas/pointers both before and
during the run. He could be asked to do the steal, but
as he told Mr. Frypp, there's going to be deckers crawling
every where after the announcement of this challenge.
He feels that this would be bending his word (its allowed
to bend, not break...Flute has to ask for him to do this,
other wise he will preform exactly as a second in a duel would,
unless things get too far out of hand).

I don't feel there anything to compromise on. Flute shot her mouth
off that FryppSec's system was weenie. Why does she need three or
four others?
