You might want to wait till I post my new post as it will be nothing like what I posted before. I'm just waiting on Brom to approve it. Just a head's up.

Okay, will do

Well, the proverbial fat lady hasn't sung yet, so I'm interested in seeing how this all plays out. I've had PMs with several of you and believe that everything is salvageable. 

Thanks for the roll, Nomad. 

Okay... I set the DC to 26 to convince Blossom to stick around (she's waaaaaay done). 

Echo's Persuasion/Fast-Talk roll 1: 11

Ghlahn's Persuasion/Fast-Talk roll 1: 17

Fixer's Persuasion/Fast-Talk roll 1: 14

Creative Currency: You can use these points to effect the storyline by altering rolls, events, etc. in the following manner:

• Add a bonus to your die roll: On Creative Currency (CC) per +1 modifier.
• Change Minor Storyline Element: This is the equivalent of changing a barely consequential detail (final say as to the consequence is reserved for the GM) – 3CC
• Change a Major Storyline Element – 6CC
• Change a life-altering Storyline Element – 9CC

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Getting Blossom to Stay cannot be a storyline element. There's just too much conflict amongst the group these past couple of days for her to settle easily. That means that each character needs to spend the CC to reroll (3 CC) and then add bonuses. For every success, I'll add a +2 to the highest die roll.

Ghlahn has 10 CC to play with, Fixer has 6, and Echo has 10.

Ghlahn: 10 - 3 (reroll) - 7 (+7 bonus to die roll) = 0 CC left

Fixer: 6 - 3 (reroll) - 3 (+3 bonus to die roll) = 0 CC left

Echo: 10 - 3 (reroll) - 7 (+7 bonus to die roll) = 0 CC left

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Echo's Persuasion/Fast-Talk roll 2: 24

Ghlahn's Persuasion/Fast-Talk roll 2: 28 (Success)

Fixer's Persuasion/Fast-Talk roll 2: 10

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

So, Blossom will be convinced to stay but CTP wants to introduce her new character... I see no problem with you having two netrunners, especially since one will be able to help in the real world more than the other.

If everyone is okay with this, then I'll write up a follow-up post once Tann and Espatier post. Please remember, no godmoding. No one at this time knows that Ghlahn succeeded. In fact, once it does happen, none of the characters will know who was the most persuasive unless Blossom reveals it.

Score one for the emotionless sniper's persuasion.  I mean , maybe it was him but who knows. 

Awesome job Metal Cee!

Ok Brom gave me the go ahead and I edited my post as such.

CTP I guess you can rewrite hitting me with that bottle of Grey Goose like you said you might and maybe instead share a drink with him

Again my apologies for a really s***ty post

Ok my new post pretty much changes your post in relation to the aftermath of my first post.  So no power play on my part. Can we continue as co-leaders or would you prefer I step back?

Bloodbank is drinking alone for now, but no vodka will be wasted on Casino's head.

I deleted my post, but have a copy saved in case you want me to put it back up, Brom. Based on Casino's new post, however, I don't feel bottle-smashing is the appropriate response from BB, but I can change it up if this makes me swapping characters that much harder on you.

Espatier, please adjust your post to reflect the events as follows:

1. Casino and Espatier get into it again.
2. Blossom throws down and exits.
3. Ghlahn follows on her heels.
4. Echo follows on Ghlahn's heels.
5. Bloodbank has his say and moves to the bar.
6. Fixer has his say but stays at the table.
7. Casino makes his statement as posted anew...

I hope that helps. To clarify, Casino isn't making a power play. Quite to the contrary, he's lying on his back like a puppy and baring his soft, pink underbelly. The whole conversation about the agents never happened and neither did his suggestion that Charlie goes off on his own.

Thank you! We'll get this all cleaned up right quick.

just got back in. I'll re-read the post, edit then post that I did the post

 Quite to the contrary, he's lying on his back like a puppy and baring his soft, pink underbelly. 

Wow I did not see that coming.............................. Now Espatier will treat me like a puppy with a pee problem. Well just remember the puppy still has an Assault Rifle/Grenade launcher combo, so you better rub me in my favorite spots. 

edited and posted. 

Bwhahaha

rub you the right way, *. 

I would like to see you deal with the combat (look in the rulebook ) and let me do the rest as agreed before back in May 

Find things that will help you kill faster and make you even more of a threat, then talk to @nomad about getting things installed or upgraded.. you and others might want to start looking in your life paths, I'm pulling things in for the opportunity to earn more CC and exps. Clean up those debts, in the life path it happens a lot, let help each other in dealing with our weakness and seeing if someone in the group can help and or assist with cleaning things. 

We need to have a quiet dinner at the apartment, talk about our backstories and help each other as we plan things and do some recruitment 

so no stepping back, let move forward as a team. you handle the combat and I'll do the rest. Charlie has posted to an altcult (Edgerunners) BBS and posted an ad for the group, let see who will answer his post!. 

All of that sounds good and I can't wait for upgrades.... However I guess you missed this line "So yeah I just can’t walk away from trying to help him and confirm if he is dead or alive."

Until we find him alive and rescued or we find him dead and some type of payback administered, Casino will take no other jobs.

If that causes my character to leave the game because the rest of the party votes that the risk to themselves to go rescue him is too great, it's all good. 

Another question, you spoke about Giri with Akagi, he does not know who saved him at the hospital, maybe from news reports he has some idea, but at the time of the gunfight he was out cold on seditives. He never saw me and the only ones who did are dead. Some of the hostages might recall me but I'd think that be a long shot right Brom? So how would that work as far as Giri/Favors owed.

Also Brom the CC that were used, will Keeper, Mischief and Nomad get them back at 10 at the start of this next phase. And will that change my 8 back to a full 10?  Reason I ask is I might want to use my 8 +2 before we leave the bar if I'm going to get a new 10.

Still not 100% clear how that all works.
