Something came up and I might be a few minutes late. I'll go ahead and get in IRC so I can read back through real quick if I miss anything; just assume that:

1. I do not accept any experimental gear.
2. I deny involvement in everything.
3. I deny being a traitor, commie, mutant, &c.
4. I follow the group loosely but avoid situations which are clearly detrimental to my clone count.

Is it possible to run out of clones, or is the clone count just a symbol of all the character's hardships?

you get like 6 clone. minimissions are self-contained and don't influence further missions. mainmissions do.

If you read the subsection labelled Clones on page 1 or 2, it says each Troubleshooter starts with a six pack of clones free, due to the Computer's generosity and wish for all his loyal Troubleshooters to be successful.

((If you run out of clones, that's it. Roll character gen. If there's a standby character he'll replace you for duration of the mission, otherwise we end the session so you can gen another character. The value of your first six clones is 2400cr. You can buy a 6-pack of clones at PLC for 4000+cr, and the price jumps for each new set (citizens who die a lot are not useful to the Computer), but people die in Alpha Complex every day and prices can vary by sector. The Computer must grant you permission to buy new backups, so pray you've been particularly loyal to him during your life.))

Well it's not started yet, it'll begin once the five players who confirmed are all here and are ready. Also, if one other person shows up to fill the sixth player slot that'd be awesome.

Session 1 log. I lost a bit from the front, but it's not exactly golden material.  :P

Just finished our first session. Took us 4 hours to get to PLC.

Lessons:
Grenades have clearances, too.
Only push people if they make too many jokes.
Hygiene officer is AWESOME.

I should've made a log of my PMs that don't exist.

For Log:
Dan is Tomato
Matrian is Dice
I am Doronic (Crazy guy.)
Syvarris is who you think he is.
I have no clue who the last two are.

Good night.

Thanks a lot Dice! I should've made you recording officer! I'll tuck that in the OP.

---

From now on, no OOC of any kind during missions. That first session was quite hectic, and I had a really hard time sorting through the stupid guff and other shit some people were saying. Also, when I asked for silence during the briefing, some people wouldn't shut up. There's a zero tolerance policy from now on. If I ask the chat to be quiet, be quiet, or we won't be playing this again. Everyone said they had a lot of fun when we were done but it took us four hours to get to PLC, we haven't even started the mission yet, which is disastrous. It's also really hard trying to find sheets and make notes and know where everything is if everyone's constantly chatting in OOC and doing actions at the same time.

From now on we also take turns doing actions. I'll establish a turn order at the start of each session. Only the person I'm addressing should be saying anything.

That said, I still had a blast, but I'm feeling drained. I would've had more of a blast if I could've kept track of everything. I know I've already forgotten a few things. My head feels like it's going to burst.

Well, goodnight everyone. I'd like to continue tomorrow.

I wholly support this measure. Though perhaps we could set up a second channel for pure OOC?
