Well this is my question
Who are you guys planning on having reveal the Wyrms and Solarials
locations - I voluntier Circuit Breaker since she has nothing else better to
do. In fact she has been working every so often on breaking those inconvenent
little encrypts (free info for a free world).

Dimitri is a fine begining decker with a beautiful deck, but CB has 5 years of
experience and is basically one of the best deckers in Seattle (ask Brian he
has seen what she is like - Oh, and Brian - she has gotten better).

CB can truthfully deck most if not all of the Tir matrix, though Spirit is a
little better at it then her - there is only so big you can make a C^2 deck.

Dan.

Actually..... I'm intending on doing a bit of plotting myself. Right now,
offhand, either your candidate (who was it?) or else Solitaire (but ONLY if
she dedicates all of her energy to tracking him down) are the only two with
enough time/energy/insanity to go hunting the drekker down. Between
them and Ganz' Goonz, well -- somebody's going to find him, right?

Heh. Heh heh heh. Yeah, .right.

Wyrm,
don't forget Buzz, MY decker. What I posted to the net is true,
except for the bit about saving the world from the Schism in the UCAS CIA,
he happens to be working on it right now in the game I'm running him in.
I know people don't want to hear stats, but I'll tell you 2 of his skills in
game terms. English 12, Comp.(decking) 10. Plus he can hold his own OUTSIDE
the Matrix. Oh, and by the way those are his original skill scores. I
haven't changed them from when I started running him. :)
He has time and money. :) He also designed HIS C^2 deck. I'm actually having
him, his brother and sister, as well as the rest of my team: Shadow,
Bloodtooth, and Dragon come waltzing into the Tir. C'est la vie.
Buzz will try tracing Solarial, because Buzz doesn't want a shadow war.
Something else i forgot to mention...I have Gabriel Solarion, Gwailin
Arthedain, and Dr. Veggie Table in the Tir already...They are all of Ducal
Rank, although i'm thinking about having Gabriel promoted to Royal rank.
Since he is a performer (Rocker to be exact.).
Avoir,
Tom Craig

Hmmm. Indeed. Well, we've all got similar grand experiences, TC -- Wyrm's
done some rather nasty things, and his Comp (software (decking)) is something
even more disgusting than yours, 'in game terms'. Doesn't really matter --
the Wyrm is (effectively) an NPC, even in my games. (Especially in my games.)
I mean, let's face it -- everybody knows somebody who's gotten over 5k karma
in his past history....

But where you fit Buzz in is up to you -- I'm under the impression, though,
that Solitaire and CB (or whomever) are no use .outside. the Matrix, so to them
falls the main task of finding Ouro -- and keeping him busy while the physical
team penetrates whatever defenses he has up.

Again, some of us have that, some have other things. Ouro doesn't need money
any more, or so he says -- and yes, he's designed and built all his stuff.

Folks, PLEASE listen -- Ouro is .telling. you to concentrate on him. Asking,
pleading, begging, whatever. He's got his reasons, you might be wise to listen
to him.
