Okay. I'm in then.

Here we go. Hope you all can read the word document! If not, well, sorry.

Big things happened. I tried a heist that nearly succeeded, but we need a bank manager to let us past the third door. Jacob acts as the lockpick, and Richard Hutchinson/Any Other Cyber Squad as hacker. Seduction with Paige is possible, but most dates fail. It's better to kidnap.

Oh, and we have a few hostages left untended to. Might wanna get on that. Especially the Radio Personality.

Sorry everyone about missing my turn :( I had internet issues after moving into my new place plus I couldn't figure out who the last player was playing as either way, so the next person in line should take their turn and I can hopefully just be put at the end of the queue.

Ok. Looking at the gamelog now. Can I get confirmation that we're running LCS V4.07.0?

Guys...sorry, but I think I'm going to have to pass. The current same game is a disorganized mess. I've spent way too much time even just sorting through our various members trying to figure out who is doing what and why they're scattered over six different squads. You would think that the clear labels like "crime squad" "music squad" "literature squad" etc. would be indicative, but no...we have people with disguise and security skills and/or assault/terrorism/murder charges sitting around fixing clothing and selling artwork. 11/25 of our members are laying low from a crazy mass of crimes, all of our high-ranking members to whom recruits have been assigned (even our founder) is a highly wanted criminal, we have two conservative hostages that so far as I can tell haven't been tended to in 5 days, on the very first day day of my turn the newspaper reports them as kidnapped, every single one of our safehouses has people generating heat, and on my first playthough the police surrounded our primary safehouse and killed half our members in the first week.

Recovering from this is going to be a major headache.

I'm going to pass and let somebody else take this.

I'm disappointed by this. Yes, it is a mess, but dang it, we should play through here and see where we get. A succession game usually doesn't meet with success, but that's where the !!FUN!! lies... working out the problems of previous turns while setting up your own agenda.

Seriously, skipping because your turn wasn't the greatest is a terrible decision. You just take the blow and see if you can recover.

Anyways, it still remains your decision to skip. I'm just stating what I think is a reasonable objection to you making that choice.

If you've decided to be an elf I'm willing to take the turn.

I actually am going to agree with Lord Bucket, the state of the game as he and I saw it is a absolute mess. I mean as I mentioned I had no idea who I was even supposed to play as previous players didn't name their characters with their profile names. Furthermore I think that due to the lack of organization anyone trying to do anything with their turn is really gonna have to sorta do a complete logistics overhaul. Even the greenest of Crime Squad leaders knows that you gotta label your squads or how are you gonna remember who is doing what where. It is even more important when other people gotta play with your dang saves  :P
Honestly besides my internet failure that is what kept me from having a go at it.
Might be easier if next succession game we play with a special rule where we only recruit 1 member for each turn played and name their accordingly, would at least help lessen the organizational confusion and crazy huge LCS chaos that gets caused.

Also kinda disappointed we don't have a liberal death squad yet, at this point in the game you should have at least one elite core of murders and a back up team of second rate thugs in training.
Either way hope we can sort these issues out  8)

Well, I started by completely renaming and reorganizing our squads in a logical manner.


I then had a very boring two months, selling most of our stuff and avoiding risky raids. I recruited a few people and finished interrogating the two conservatives (though it took long enough that they were flagged and couldn't be turned into sleepers). The firemen came to one of our safehouses and destroyed the printing press, but no one was hurt.
