Spacepunk OOC

This is the OOC thread for this game. Any not-IC discussions or questions can go here. I'm fine with some small OOC questions attached to an IC post but full OOC posts should only go here to keep the IC threads looking nicer.

If you use the minus one option on a skill, does that get you XP?
Because Lain gets minus 1 if aided by a human.
I can add up to plus 4 if I have that level and spend a fatigue point.
We can get some xp for Lain.

Yes, if you use the -1 option, you get to mark the skill you used, which is the closest thing to XP in this game

How much cash do we have? I guess we will need to stay somewhere and checking in this hotel could be an easy way to discreetly access the bodyguards:)

Thoughts... we can probably identify ourselves when dealing with the. Bodyguards but maybe we should do a background check on the merc "dead man" was meeting 🤔 also, so re-read a bit and we may be interested in checking his ship that is still docked. Eventually, hacking the hotel cameras may be needed :D

We're not super strict with money but I'd say this hotel is above your price range. But I'll say you could afford one of the cheapest rooms for all of you to share for a night or two.
Just for sleeping, you could also find a cheaper place to stay or sleep on the ship

We could identify ourselves to the bodyguards, there is a chance they are involved, but if they are still around, probably not.
Hacking security cams is an option. Also, just talking to wait staff and cleaning staff, drop a couple of bucks and say we are looking for him to collect a poker debt. See if anything pops up.

collecting a debt sound like a good excuse :D

Should we check in for a night (since we can) so we find the bodyguards discreetly by "accident"? we'd leave next day for something cheaper

Maybe we can split actually. Half of us asks around for the son, "collecting the debt" and the other half, is just unrelatedly checking in to the hotel. If we don't get the info, we have hackers on the inside that are not related to the debt collectors (as far as the staff can tell).

Carlos being a negotiator he looks like the guy to ask questions around. Lain can partner with her "toy" android to get into the system I suppose... not sure what and infiltrator can do... but maybe find the merc we're looking for?

So it looks like Lain is checking in. If the check-in team wants to do the hacking as well, then ANDREW should probably join Lain.
That would mean Carlos and Nemo make up the debt-team.

Up to you, of course, just a suggestion

Nemo would be the sneaky guy for the casino job 👌

I started at the bar. Nemo can join me or work the dealers or wait staff.

bump into Lain for some girly rivalry ;)

Do we have any kind of comms?

I would say yes, like phones so you'd have to call each other. And it would only work locally, so let's say as long as your on the same planet

One feature that's unfortunately missing on GP is some way to mark posts as read. I'll move individual players ahead from time to time even if not everyone has posted yet, especially if characters aren't in the same place or if someone is just performing a minor action that can be resolved immediately. But generally, I'll wait for everyone to post before going forward so nobody gets left behind. However, I know the feeling as a player when I don't have anything to say at the moment and am just waiting for an update to give me something to do again.
If at any point you've read up on the full thread and don't think you have anything to add at the moment, just let me know in the OOC or on discord or wherever so I know I should move forward :)

Hey @Mach, haven't heard from you in a while. Are you still there?

Yep. Just took a back seat a bit in this encounter. Others were handling it well. I will post though, it was rude to go quiet.
