I didn't really have any plans on there being a mess hall.... But the building is large enough, they have enough workers to warrant one, and they do have the finances, so I guess there's one now!

Oh yeah, somebody. One of the clerks, or interns are going to be going around with a paper with the character's names on it. Basicly it's a list for your characters to listdown whatever groceries you want delivered to you. (Jack can't order booze though, per Erin.) The cost of the groceries will be deducted from your pay.... Just thought it would be something they would offer to 'ease the burden of getting groceries' AKA LOKI being about to keep a very close eye on you, and deter assassination attempts while your at market.


*Facepalm*

Finally got the point across we had a problem.

[RogueSpear]

The facepalm was at the assassination plots...that you brought up...from nowhere...which has now become canon...

[guardian wolf]

You always refer to yourself in the 3rd person? Ummm... yeah.

Just a quick reminder, Heather currently has a big ugly bruise across the left side of her face from where she hit the concrete in the mech space back on the 16th. That's probably a leettle noticable while you're having your casual chat...

[Thom Frankfurt]

Thanks for the reminder, you've just opened up a whole bunch of RPing doors.

[RogueSpear]

Don't worry, Jack shall swiftly nip things in the bud before DeMarkus defenestrates Bertie!
I've a couple half baked plans for the next couple of days IC with Jack/Heather. Jack's never hung around kids in the Periphery, and he never expected to - so running into one all of a sudden while hanging around a hero, even one traditionally an enemy, has him a little jumbled up.

EDIT: The censored word was 600|<, should've expected racial slurs. I know DeMarkus is Russian, but the CCAF is predominantly of Chinese decent, and Jack doesn't seem the type to let little things like the accuracy of an insult stop him from using it.
Can't believe I had to resort to 1337speak to get that past the censor...

You're Lyran, I'm Capellan... We don't really share a border (Thank you Free Worlds League.) so it's kinda of hard to say our respective nations are traditional enemies... at least IMO anyways. Now the two of us and the Free Worlds League... that's a different situation entirely.

[RogueSpear]

Well they don't tend to play nice when they do run into each other, and do share a border near the Chaos March - or will after the FedCom comes about. My knowledge of the BT maps is a bit sketchy at best. Which is why I decided to go with traditionally - anytime they come into direct contact, they knock some holes in each other, then b*gger off.
Plus, Jack has been a pirate - traditionally, everyone is an enemy!

[Thom Frankfurt]

That's usually how it is when your a pirate...

hey how do you post youtube vids like how you and Azman do? All I can manage is the stupid link.

[RogueSpear]

Ummm...Truth be told, I think I just link it normally. I can't remember now that I've been asked...but I do know there's a button in the quick reply section at least labelled 'Special BBCode'. Third from the left, top row. If you select media, I imagine that would work.

As a test (Worth watching, even funnier as my real name is Tony):


EDIT: Yep, I just copypasta'd the URL, and it automatically added [ media ] [ /media ] tags, without the spaces.

Some kids get picture books that teach them what cows, sheep and horses look like. Heather had an AFFS quick reference guide to Capellan BattleMechs.

[Thom Frankfurt]

Ah to Hell with it... I feel ultra tech retarded right now....

Yeah.. DeMarkus knows all about League and Fed Sun designs. If you see him or pay attention to some of my post, you'll see him checking out DC and LC mechs. He has read some data on the very basic ones but still checks them out when he encounters one...

[RogueSpear]

Did it not work?

Jack looked up at DeMarkus again. "DeMarkus, you know what in the 6 Houses Captain Zed is?"

Captain Zed and the Justice Strikeforce is a non-canon FedSuns kids vidshow I made up. It centres around the main character, Captain Sir Zed Tremenar, and his team of noble and plucky MechWarriors who work together to defeat the evil Baron Lo, learning about friendship and cooperation along the way. It also has some vague Arthurian-legend overtones, as well as faint anti-Draconis overtones (in much the same way that 1980's shows often portrayed Communists and Russians as the bad guys). It's also loosely based on folk stories from the Bryceland/Milligan/Kilbourne PDZs in the FedSuns dating back about a hundred years, in which Sir Tremenar in his Commando beats Baron Lo in his Atlas.

Think G.I. Joe or M.A.S.K., but with BattleMechs. Or Victor Steiner-Davion, for that matter.

Other than that, feel free to make stuff up.

nope.

[RogueSpear]

Weird, works for me :/
@Sparks, I figured it was something like that - but Jack doesn't watch much TV, and he's been out on the periphery. So I figured the safest bet would be to feign ignorance.
