A Time For Secrets OOC

Are you suggesting that I punish you by NOT giving you the Karma bonus above?

Nope, I just suggest that nothing comes for free, even if life gives you karma it's in a package with a Critical Glitch.

Ugh.... Why did you have to go and roll a critical glitch?! I'm too tired to be properly creative today!

I can roll once more tomorrow, and just ignore this one, but I think this is not the appropriate conduct.

Nope, not appropriate. I will dredge deep within my Creativity Wells, and pull out the "Bottom Of The Barrel" bits; the "Seed Corn" as it were, in order to come up with, and post, a proper Critical Glitch on something so trivial as a Stealth Check in a game. This is like rolling 100% Successes on a perception test to find your keys on your way to your car...

@Gala: Okay, since you edit the rules, can I change my first action a little bit.

On re-read, I suppose you'll need to.

@Sly: Why light Signature did you run toward? Just give me a "First" or "Second".

first

You can just hold the light behind your head, the eyes will adjust that way too as you will not see the light nowhere, just keeping it pointing up and over your eye level, that should work too.

Okay,

Before I start writing, can I using the screen from my commlink as a small light source by increasing the brightness of the screen. Also the energy won't last very long, would it be seen bei others?

@Laz: It will give you less illumination than the chances that it will be spotted. But, yes, you can use it. The light source is likely easier to control than the flashlight, from a "protection" standpoint. But I don't know why you would need it; we are not in "Full Dark" conditions, just late evening, or twilight. You can see, just not well.

I thought more as a decoy

Not a bad idea at all. People will see it if they have unimpeded line of sight, but it won't be bright enough to see from any distance unless they have nothing in the way.

[EDIT] It's not likely that anyone would think it was a flashlight, but it's entirely possible that the character might interpret it as a flashlight beam shining on something. Particularly if their perception test was low.

I edit my first post, so Greifer don't puts the flashlight away, now he use his commlink instead.

Also, id Greifer makes a perception test and don't see anybody and then use his flashlight (because he get bored very easily) are that two actions? Also Are we playing with improved init passes based on cyberware? If so, when do I have to write/do the actions?

Just one pass.
but it's already CT 2 so it's your pass again.

Can only one person readying his action per round?

If so, I only want to know if on of the lights is running in Greifers direction. Since Sieg has made his running action first Greifer should see if he's running to him or not.

Now is it Greifer's turn or Kap's?

EDIT: I edit my message and add both rolls depending on the result from the first perception.

It should be Kap's turn now.

lol ten years ago huh? ok sweet got something ill post up the ride back or something idk soon k lata

Thank you for the rolls there Greifer. I will let you know what your character did (based on those rolls) during the turn-end recap.

Specter: you're up.

Also note: Despite that I have just discovered that I've been mis-using the Dodge rules during combat (using Dodge requires a readied action), for the duration of this game, the characters will all be allowed to use Dodge or Gymnastics, as though they had a readied action, for each attack directed at them.

Im guessing you mean the Laser Tag game not the entire campaign right?..just claryfing

Yes; just for the remainder of the lazer-tag game. This is not becoming a "House Rule" for the campaign.

Sooo, not getting any responses then?

Ahh, thanks for the reminder. You posted some questions, and Ashe wouldn't have ignored them. Sorry for that. I've edited.
