SO I'M A STINKER AND SUCK AT GETTING HOME EARLY

[calibrating]

Okay hello everybody!

So that super special awesome plot starts tonight. But never fear, it can go on for as long as we want, so no pressure in backtagging!

With that being said, we've come up with a plan! A not so final plan if anybody has any other ideas, it's basically a blueprint for us to follow and make sure we're all on the same page.

So, as seen in the previous post we had a few volunteers for who would get injured in the fight. To make it fair, I ran everybody through a random generator and it turns out that Liara won! Hooray! She gets to go home microwaved! Double hooray! But don't worry, it's not fatal, just incredibly painful. And feels like burning.

It wasn't clearly stated as to whether or not we wanted to do a log, SO Ant came up with an idea. BASICALLY, whatever teams we break up into do their own logs, and we just keep in constant contact with one another about what's going on, and move at whatever paces serve us best.

Now that brings us to one thing: how are we going to break up the squad!

We're proposing that we have three groups:

Team Sheploo

Team Femshep

Team Spikedick


Team Spikedick will be Garrus, Fox and Wrex. That leaves Femshep and Sheploo with Liara (presumably on Sheploo's team), Tali, Grunt, Legion and Mordin.

AS FOR MIRANDA (we didn't forget you!!!) once you get off hiatus we can hash out something for her to have done throughout this plot. Feel free to PM/IM me or Ant and we can come up with something for Miranda to do on her own!

Joker gets to stay on stand-by with the Normandy.

Again, if anybody has ANY issue whatsoever with character roles, please let me know here, these plans CAN BE CHANGED to fit your schedule or accommodate any ideas you may have.

NOW ONTO THE SPECIFICS OF WHAT WILL HAPPEN!

So a basic idea would be as follows:

Normandy Crew splits up.

Normandy Crew busts the deal.

Normandy Crew incites a fight!

General Doodicus (that is his official name now. Deal with it.) and his cronies fight back! At this point, one of said cronies, fires a special weapon that microwaves Liara (to put it coarsely).

Now from here, things can go any number of ways!

Obviously, someone's gonna have to get Liara out of there. Ant has suggested that Wrex lay down covering fire while someone extracts Liara. Meanwhile, Femshep and Sheploo can have their major argument in regards to whether they should go after the general or stop an actual war from breaking out! Garrus will take it upon himself to try and apprehend Doodicus and will ultimately fail (way to go) and the rest...well, that's up to you guys!

I'll be putting up Garrus' post right after putting this up. Feel free to set up teams in here, and log as you want over the weekend and beyond. If you have any questions, check the previous couple of posts in the comm, if your question isn't answered there, feel free to IM either myself or Ant. My AIM is sheepisaru and Ant's is daigurrenkamina.

ALMOST FORGOT: from what I understand both Shepards are going to be feeding any information they get from here to TIM. Confirm pls? :D

FORGOT THIS TOO: Preventer has loaned the Normandy Crew some shield/protection tech! This is an awesome opportunity for both Tali and Legion to maybe play around with it and make it better! WHAT DO YOU GUYS THINK?

ANNNNND ONCE MORE FOR THE RECORD! If you have anything you'd like to bring up, concerns, ideas, ANYTHING!!!! we'd like to hear them!

I do believe Mordin would prefer to accompany manshep

that is convenient because then he can slap some medigel on liara and shit

Fox can help Wrex cover fire shit or something. Don't want to let the dinosaur have all the fun now do we 8U

[calibrating]

OH YOU FANCY

YOU FANCY HUH MORDIN

nah that's cool. ONE MORE FOR TEAM MANSHEP.

Also that sounds good! Is he bringing Bill along?

[neuterskrogan]

FOX IS INDEED BRINGING BILL

I'm totally willing to do a Legion log with Tali and tech sometime after... I'm less busy. Unfortunately the event and one of the busiest weeks of my life/career have collided and I will be incredibly spotty if not entirely unavailable, but I will try my best. Please just point me in the direction Legion should go and I'll tag from there.

Also: Legion with Femshep plz. They aren't as comfortable with... Jim... as they are with Shepard-Commander.

[calibrating]

WHY AREN'T YOU SLEEPING.

Also the actual logs can take place whenever and just be backtracked, so don't sweat it!

[1183_geth]

BECAUSE I HAVE SHIT TO TAKE CARE OF STILL. Like my paragon and renegade henna tattoos on my wrists needing to be redrawn what-

And I WILL SWEAT JUST AS MUCH AS I PLEASE THANKS. Legion isn't cool enough to get sunglasses. Can they get a monocle?

[shotgunhacks]

I'll be gone this weekend, too, so backdating things is totally okay with me to do that.

Maybe Tali can even try not shooting Legion in the flashlight this time.

CONFIRMING JANE GETTING IN TOUCH WITH ILLUSIVE MAN AFTERWARD.

WHO WANTS TO BE APART OF THE AWESOME SQUAD? 8D

[tryannsauros]

AM I AWESOME YET

[reigninginstars]

/GIVES A PAIR OF AWESOME SHADES

NOW YOU ARE AWWW YEAAHHHHHHH

welcome aboard, grunt

[fightforthelost]

TEAM LUMBERJACK: Mordin and Liara definitely and then anyone who wants to come!

Yes, Sheploo will be getting in contact with TIM after this to feed information about the Purists. There's probably going to be a tentative alliance between Sheploo and TIM from here on out unless TIM does something super bad. Of course, I expect Sheploo to have a lot more patience with TIM than Jane does, so there's that.

When Liara gets microwaved, Sheploo is going to get pissed. His mental state isn't 100% right now after the ending of ME3 and things, so any injuries like that are really going to affect him, especially Liara of all people. He's renegade, so while he'll want to make sure she's safe and out of there, his #1 goal at that point is going to be pure revenge on peeps.

Then Jane and Jim can have their argument. He won't back down from his argument that they go after Doodicus or whatever his name is, saying something like more people will die if he escapes. He'll probably break off from Jane at that point to pursue. Garrus is going after Doodicus, so maybe Sheploo gets detained with the bulk of the dude's security forces. He'll probably be out of radio contact after that while doing some guerilla warfare and taking out as many of the guys as he can.

That way Jane can feel bad.

ANYONE can come along with him if they want? This is my excuse to have him disappear until the end of the plot when he can show up as a wildcard and save some of the guys (and also so I can focus on Naruto for a few days or so :D ).

ANYWAYS! Did I miss anything?

[powerspawning]

CAN WREX HEADBUTT HIM TO SETTLE HIM DOWN?

[fightforthelost]

LMFAO IF HE WANTS!

Sheploo already headbutted Grunt. It will be karma

[neuterskrogan]

There is nothing lumberjack about mordin THIS TEAM NAME

yesss mordin can finally talk about targets being flammable.

Or inflammable.

Forget which, doesn't matter now.

[fightforthelost]

Sheploo is enough lumberjack for all of them

And Mordin must burn all the things

[purebiotic]

HAHA microwaved asari. W e l p the randomizer loves you, gurl.

/rubs hands together excitedly

So yeah Liara deffo with team lumberjack then. Obviously after she gets hit she's probably just going to be dead weight so hopefully someone can get her out of there pretty quickly?

[fightforthelost]

YEAH I think Ryo and I decided that Team Lumberjack is going to drive the Mako in, so they can use that to help get Liara out of there

[purebiotic]

Hooooboy the mako. That'll bring back memories lol.

But that sounds like it'll work!

I suppose I could put Liara out of commission then, at least until when this plot begins to wrap up somewhat. Since I have a feeling she'll be recovering back on the Thor in the hospital for awhile? With injuries like.... internal burning and shit. Or Mordin can tend to her? Idk something

[reigninginstars]

Oh, I should probably also ask, for Femshep's team (Grunt and Legion/Tali?)- did you guys want to do anything specific for our log? I'm up for suggestions to keep things interesting 8D

because at the moment, I really don't know how to start out the log. x___X

[fightforthelost]

I put a separate thread in the Team Lumberjack log for communication between teams just in case random shit come up like "JANE WE GOT THE SECURITY SYSTEMS OFFLINE GOOD LUCK" or something

because they are all the time communicated with random people in the games during missions

[reigninginstars]

All right!

I'll put one in my log whenever I put it up.

Unless Team femshep wants to handwave it and just talk out what happened. I AM OKAY WITH EITHER

but I definitely want to play out the argument and shit between Jim and Jane /rubs hands together

[calibrating]

THIS THREAD MAY HELP YOU OUT: HURR

[fightforthelost]

SHEEPI you're away/idle on AIM and I'm about to go to bed but I wanted to link you

this

just so they can talk back and forth and shit if they want or so it can be the jump-off point for garrus and jane's teams to start their logs or talk about what to handwave etc

[calibrating]

I WAS SLEEPING LIKE AN OLD LADY RESPONSIBLE ADULT.

Thanks for the link! I'll be putting up a log for Team Spikedick tonight and will do the same. I'll also see about getting a layout together so we're not flying blind! :D

[calibrating]

BELATED LAYOUT:




Official plan: Team Lumberjack assaults the front to distract for Team Femshep (who will be getting rid of alarms/armed personnel) and Team Spikedick (Garrus and Fox are support from the rafters while Wrex is a one man army who guards the other door).

SOUNDS GOOD?
