I...don't understand. Again.

Just count me out for this one, I guess I'll observe :/
Enyalida2012-02-06 16:56:03
What don't you understand?
Arsalil2012-02-06 16:59:48
Don't quit, Eri!

Also, I took the Team Leader position for Team 1.

@Eritheyl if it's jobs and you haven't picked one yet, see if 'equipment guy' is open. Notice you have a really high score in everything... equipmenty: Mechanical engineering, bot maintenance, electronic engineering, and so on.

You'll also need to come up with some sort of name. It dosn't really matter that much, but generally people try for some sort of pun. Your clearance is 'R'. Your sector is something you just make the heck up, it's three letter/numbers, usually used to complete the pun.

You also need to fill out 'Tics'. These are amusing identifiers you limit your charcter with. One example in the book is compulsive sniffing. As a result, if we were playing in person you'd get penalized for not snuffling a lot, and rewarded for really working it into what you were doing as a player. I imagine the same will come out in the forum game! You can also just have various character quirks written down there, but hopefully nothing that's incriminating or that will get you into too much trouble!
Arsalil2012-02-06 17:15:50
I had trouble coming up with tics, so I downloaded this tic wheel, to help me come up with ideas. Super helpful!

Tic Generator Wheel

I promise I downloaded it and there were no viruses or anything.

It's fine, I'll just wallflower this one. My availability may be subject to drastic change around the end of this week, so it's prrrobably for the best anyways :P
Enyalida2012-02-06 17:39:35
If you wanted to quit, you should have just said so...
Do we have another player waiting in the wings who can/is willing to take the character up? We need six players to form a full troubleshooting team?
Eritheyl2012-02-06 17:42:41
...I did say so. Note my comments about not understanding, and possible availability changes. Hence, stepping out.
Casilu2012-02-06 19:31:34
If you want, I'll try and get you a replacement.


Or we can make you have multiple personalities and you can share!

You should give it try, should be fun -because- half of us have only vague ideas what we're doing.

Also, Team 2 now has a Hygiene Officer. Numorr-R-BLD at Friend Computer's Service.
Eritheyl2012-02-06 21:03:38
Now I'm all torn and conflicted and junk. But this still hinges on whether or not I will have internet access at the end of this week!
Riluna2012-02-06 21:20:58
So try it out, and if you don't like it, or lose your internet or whatever, we'll figure something out. Who knows, it might be fun! Let's start this game.

Okay, I'll take that!

Also, thanks to Arsalil's nifty little linkage, I found two of those I sort of like!
Arsalil2012-02-07 00:19:59
Yay! Honestly, Eri, you're not the only one that is completely confused. I'm justing hoping I pick it up well enough as we go along to not be crippling to my team. :)
Eritheyl2012-02-07 00:42:36
casilu:

Alright, you both should have editing rights on those. Add your 100 plasticreds, 25 perversity points, red laser barrel, red reflec armor, and laser gun.

I suppose the first two are put in the aptly-named boxes, and the last three are tossed in under Assigned Equipment?

/paranoid, ironically
Ssaliss2012-02-07 00:49:01
I just tossed it all under Assigned. No clue if that's right though, heh.
Riluna2012-02-07 01:08:30
As long as it's on your sheet, that's good enough. Just so you have a record of what you have, if it becomes important at some point.

What are you talking about? I like my meatshield combat specialized team leader to not know any better! Remember: as long as you are first through the door, we all have a higher chance of survival.

Oh, come now! There are no irrational fears in Paranoia!

I'm glad I will be of use to you, then. :P
