Technically some of our employees have already committed arson, got their steak charred, and got jumped in a back alley. But if you mean the next turn, then yes.

Yeah I would think that turns are workdays.

Time is about 4 hours, up to 12 hours if it's night- AKA, there are a couple turns for day, and 1 for night.

I recommend that we all try to be patient. GMing is hard work, I know that for a fact as I'm running 5 games simultaneously right now. Plus, there's often times that you have to get in the mood to GM, and that can strike whenever. I'm sure Coolrune is just trying to figure out how he's going to enact all of our actions in the best way possible.

Because trying to stuff Fate/Whatever's engrish and the title of a 17th century book on statecraft into Pokemon syntax tends to make the content incomprehensible.

You're exactly right. I'm also figuring out the easiest way to do statuses.

FTFY

I'm joking, I'm joking. Take your time, Coolrune, I'm still very interested in what you have for us.

Mark hides a trail of clues and riddles around the city, with the final one giving a discount at the store.
If there is time after finding weapons or he can't find any Dave will help.
3: You find a box of rusty nails and a board of plank. No time to help, though.

Scree goes and shouts  in a highway "go buy the very cool 50 cent fiddle things just over there! and we have the best stuff around!
2: You run onto the highway, screaming at the top of your lungs. Some guy swerves to avoid you, and slams into the curb. You plant a flier near his body so the police can find some $0.50 stuff.

nailed it, boss

ACQUIRE ADDITIONAL CUSTOMERS
5: Using masterful diplomacy, you explain to all the people staring in complete fear at the burning building, that if it was an $0.50 store, it would not have exploded. They take this to heart, even though it's complete jibberish, and run off to the store.

Hmmm. That's not enough.

John Doe checks what the newspaper charges for advertising. If it's more then 50 dollars, he goes back to making posters.
2: You call up, and it turns out to be $500. Uh oh.

All he ever wanted was some steak. And some good ol' fashioned cola. At least he wasn't on charges for arson. It would be a shame for the descendant of a transport conglomerate to have a criminal record first day on the job.

Claim insurance on the barbecue.
6: The court case is quick and decisive. You walk out with a case of money containing $100, and a new barbecue.

"Do you want to work here or not? I'm not having defensive/hostile employees."

Business stuff:

Buy a business newspaper. See what demographics spend the most money in this city, (demographics on gender, race, age, etc.). After finding the most important demographics, see what sort of products they want the most. Also check on the prediction for how well the national economy is doing at the moment, and how well it should do in the near future.

Check our inventory to see what kind of things we're actually selling.

Normalize the prices of everything, as $.50 is too low for some stuff, despite the name. However, to keep things in the 50 Cent spirit, instead of ending prices in $X.00, or $X.99, make sure everything is $X.50. (Ex.; Hotdogs cost $1.50)

See how much I, and each of my employees, have in our private bank accounts.

Check out any abandoned lots or stores going out of business that we could potentially move into.

*Snip*
1: You can't find out anything, as you suddenly start spazzing out. No one knows what's going on, but after a couple minutes you stop, with no recollection of your life. It takes a few hours for it to trickle back to you.



CORPORATE FUNDS: 3+25 from employee+8 from sales = 36$! Employees or Boss can donate to as they wish.

YOU FORGOT MY XENO SUIT.

Also

Go buy some Ten Knives, as sharp as they can be, then attach Claws to my hands, so that way I have xeno Claws!

What?
Also master plan suggest we get the computer, recording software and hacking tools. Then we record an original music video with $0.50's raps, my techno-babble, and Lily's acrobatics promoting Fifty Shades of Fiddy. After that I hack a video store to play it on constant loop for a day.
