Yeah, sorry, my fault. I should have checked the game thread!

In case my description didn't make much sense, it seems that the man was running from his transport because an explosive device was in it, set to go off. It exploded and has ripped a big hole in that part of the station, and wouldn't you know it, the Serendipity is docked at the other side!

I thought maybe we were all deadlocked, waiting for someone else to do something. :-p

Good point with the Cool Check, Flamiel; I had intended to get everyone to roll a Hard one and take Strain for each Failure (and get a boost on their next roll for each Success). Could everyone do that, and Flamiel do a Roll for the three Purple dice.

Sorry, what do you mean exactly? Which 3 purple dice am I rolling for? Or do you mean just add a single roll of 3 purples to my post?

Yeah, just add a roll of three purple. We can manually add it to your Cool Roll to see how it turns out.

Done

bigtucker; can you roll a Cool check too?

Okay, bigtucker can do his Roll when he gets back. For now Mayron takes two Strain.

We seem to really struggle on the weekends.

I'm standing by, ready to act, but I think maybe it's to Juse or ShowMeDaMoneh now.

I think it's pretty normal that the weekends are quieter around here. I suspect most people post at work (I know I do).

Okay, so Juse takes two Strain.

I'm hoping to get a decent post in some time in the next few hours, but I'm not sure if I'll get the chance. If not it will be some time tomorrow.

In the mean time, what are your plans here? Does my description of the scene make sense?

My plan is for G'Rehth to stick by Mayron as his only perceived ticket off station. My understanding is we have to take an alternate route to his ship, but not clear if my character should know the way or not.

Yeah, think it makes sense. Bad man ship blew up. We're running back to Mayron's ship, though I thought it was just back the way he came, not an alternative route.

Makes sense. We're running to a ship before the station disintegrates. I'm following the guy who knows how to get there.

It just occurs to me that Mayron, having just arrived, may not know how to get there, unless the station is a nice symmetrical arrangement. I'll go back and read the description. G'Rehth has been there a little while, being marooned, but I hadn't established just how long or if he knows the layout of the station.

Ok, just re-read it. The station is small and indeed symmetrical. So, it should just be a matter of running in the opposite direction?

That's how I understood it.

Exactly! The hab section of the station is a ring. You were all only about a quarter turn away from the ship, but the section between you and it just exploded and is now tearing away from the core of the station (a refinery). So, unless you want to try your luck with the hard vacuum and possible further explosions, working your way around the other direction seems like the best option.
