Set room number to 574 and password to ******

Hit Exit again if the room move after that, then message Steve as before and head to the briefing room.
Observe the majesty of the briefing room. Go through any data I still have from the god computer while I wait.

(( I can message you a password if you feel it matters :P ))

Alright, I've started working on the new character page. It's ~half done in terms of information transfer, the formatting could use work. (in particular, I'd like to figure out how to get the table to 'stick' to the margins, so that all the tables look consistent.)

One thing I notice is that with the new organization, the 'status' field is redundant. Any suggestions for a replacement field, a new utility, or should I just remove the column altogether?

For the Dead section, I'm thinking I'll remove the 'appearance' and 'status' columns, and add in a 'cause of death' column, like the missionless dead table below it. May remove the profession as well, but I feel like there is still some use in that when the character had been on a mission.

@Unholy_Pariah
Well, I'd suggest picking two extra -1s to some skills (or designating one as "-2" dump stat) and adding an extra +1 to Aux. Now, getting to +3 would require 15 points instead of 10, so you could take 5 points out of Handi and put those in Aux.

Alternatively you could take those 10 bonus points (I see they're spent on stats, which is cool, but YMMV) and the same 5 points from Handi and put the 15 points into Aux, bringing it from +2 to +3.
changed my exo from -1 to -2 and tacked a -1 onto G.knowledge then moved my+5 handi over to Aux, that works right?

If the wiki says it's +3, then yeah, it works :P

Phoebe tries to get a laptop from the Armory for reasons.

(( Should I change your characters User name to Cinder? I remember seeing you talk about getting the name change on IRC.
This character also needs a stat-update into our new system, I think? We may have missed it, team Wiki gnome is busy. ))

@Cheesecake, minor error in your current stats. We no longer have a speech skill, it got rolled into charisma. I need to know where to put the extra -1.

The wiki is going to have it as -1 in gen knowledge, just so there's a -1 somewhere, but we can change that to whatever you'd like.

EDIT: WAIT, 2 errors. You only need -4 for the +'s you have (+2 +1), so we can remove to -1's from stats. Where would you like them to come from? (I will be removing them from str and... I don't know, endurance? until you tell me otherwise. Again, same deal, I'm just making the sheet internally consistent for the wiki, we can change it however you'd like.

Huh... looks like we finally got some renovations. Looks like a good place to think in peace... Well, better go get cleared by Steve before the missions start imploding.
Skylar gets dressed, collects his tablet and any of the data he still has from the heist.

Then he messages Steve that he'd like to talk about the Heist in the briefing room when possible, hits the exit button, and heads there.
Take a look at the new briefing room, then look over the data I still have about the god computer.

I like the side-by-side Attributes, it works especially well for the Cheat-Sheet, and looks pretty good on the main sheet as well. I feel the gap between them should be a bit smaller.

I personally like Aoshi's inventory sorting, it will make it easier to find the immediately relevant Items. But I don't know if the template needs to have that setup encoded into it.

((I've been approved for a mission already? Sweet. Which one though? I don't see my name in the wiki.))

Nah, the missions were already overflowing with people when you signed up. You'll have to wake up in the ship as normal and wait for the next batch.
Oh, no problem. Will I be given like a rundown of what this is all about IC, or do I assume he was told everything on his way here?

Your choice. If you would like to roleplay it, you are welcome to do so (as long as PW is in the mood).
This is actually a great time to do this. We just switched over to a new Sword layout, so even the Vets are exploring IC and not fully aware of the new layout.

Yo, Tavik, you have some extra points from the boarding, timeskip, and mission 9.
A total of 30 stat, 30 skill, and 10 wildcard.

Here's a new sheet with increased conventional and auxiliary.

Is this okay?
Alright, I missed that he'd been on the double-mission and the ship assault due to formatting issues. Yay. Wiki reformatting incoming sometime this week...

I would say that, in keeping with the original build, it should be +5 in every stat, and +10 in con instead of +15. Up to Tavik, though.

*snipsnip*
Like Kri's one better.

Alright, it has been updated to the wiki. Thanks for catching my mistake, NAV.

I'll agree with this.

I'd been wondering about how to setup something like that myself, but I wasn't sure how to 'automate' the linking. Cause wikicode.

Just got an idea in regards to missions' length. I remember someone doing the wonderful effort of measuring and charting time lengths of each ER mission, but what if for metrics we used the number of PW's posts instead? Sure these days missions are really long, unlike earlier, but in the very beginning ER mission thread got updated much more more often, sometimes three times a day; and then about a year later it was still updated more or less consistently twice a day. I understand that counting them all is probably very difficult, but maybe average GM post frequency ration could be picked.
And then it would be quite interesting to compare the "pure" mission time length chart to the one adjusted for GM post frequency; I suppose some of the early missions would come close to the recent ones in terms of "turns" number.

This wouldn't surprise me, PW used to post a lot more frequently, and in re-reading missions, they don't feel too much longer.

Paris's forum downloader could obtain that information. It can filter by user, so you can ask it to get only PW's posts from the various threads.

As of the end of the defense mission (Which is when I last downloaded the archive to my system), PW had made 75 pages of posts at 50 ppp, including any post on the sub-board. Just for a taste of the amount of posts that has gone into the last 3 years of content :P

I've mentioned this elsewhere, but since we have this convenient place to remind people now... :P

I'm redoing the Character Index this week, after the missions go out tomorrow.

PW: we already have pages for the missions setup, right here, with direct links to the characters involved. These lists will not be impacted, and you should be able to reach any mission relevant character from there. The index should still be accessible during the edits, but no promises :P

Everyone: Here is my current plan for the reorg. First, I'm going to re-sort the Character Index into the following categories, in this order
  • Current Mission, Separated out by individual mission or team
  • On Ship
  • Unassigned, new characters who have not yet been on mission
  • Hepheastus, not that it matters too much :P
  • Stasis, or currently inactive characters
  • Dead
The idea of this re-sort is to make it easier to find active players, by moving inactive and dead characters towards the bottom of the index (and maybe onto another page altogether in the future)

I will also work on the Completed Missions column, to make it more consistent, up-to-date, and useful. And to better show off Milno's accomplishments.

Please leave any comments or suggestions of things you'd like to see done to the Character Index now. New fields, different categories, etc.
Again, I'll begin edits on it this week, after the missions go out.

Considering "everyone else" teams are rather far away from each other maybe Mission 20 page should be split into A and B pages? Thoughts?

Go for it.
