In good news though it does help the PC's when they are trying to sneak by guards who are busy looking down rifle barrels, hitting themselves with tasers, etc.

If the party has enough money, they can hire someone competent (80% is just under wiz kid). Do we really need to remind you of how the Bird situation arose? When we, following your advice to actually ask people to force you to think about it properly, talked to the *highly competent* infiltration guy MANY times and you failed/fumbled EVERY!! SINGLE!!! TIME!!!!

Remind me of the Bird situation? I don't recall that one.
(Was the Bird the Word?)
Now, very curious!

It started during... Time after Time? I think, the one based on 12.01am, with time repeating. We wanted to get into some research facility, and talked to KBCM (?) about how to. And the best advice we got was "pretend to be birds and claim it's in the way of our migration path."
And KBCM went downhill from there, until they finally flew the coop.

I have no idea what that means but it sounds hilarious. I couldn't find it under that name (looking on IA).

Looks like it was in August 08, and it didn't make the archive.

Good is relative. Did it have fun jokes it and do I remember my participation in it with fondness? Yes. I'll see what I can do about getting them uploaded.

Got evil plans for the future (hopefully in OCT?) and don't want to ask you for double the work for no reason.

*Cybertechnology - aka cybernetics see above.
Wow. Out of all those skills, this is the only one that made it through my mad ranting as a 'new matrix' skill.
There are certain types of plots which I can do, others - not so much. If you want a technothriller aka Clancy, I'm not the right guy for that.
Despite not a lot of new skills being absolutely required, if the PC's have some that sound good to my brain and fit into the situation great.
For example - I was writing a mod in which I referenced 'forensic accounting'. Regular accounting - yes, it would work but at a negative. FA at - well, in this case a lesser negative.
But as always, whatever write in skills - great.
The PC's will probably eventually accumulate tons of them since stuff starts at learn x1.
