Srs business~

It took me about a week to realize it, but we've gone over my original planned adventure length of 1-2 real life months; we started on April 26 and now it's July 4. I promised myself when I first started that if either the 4 encounters limit (planned or unplanned) or the time limit is reached, the game would end and the credits would roll like an episode in a series like Clone Wars or Rebels, at which point we could evaluate what has happened so far (maybe change a few things in rules and such) and maybe start "Mantis Syndicate 2" to pick up where we left off.

So! Let's evaluate.

It's no big secret that my updates take a long time, and the reason for that is because I'm very detail-oriented in my approach to DMing. It takes me long enough to respond to a few posts, and the recent batch of posts have overwhelmed me, so I'm a little unsure of how to continue. Don't get me wrong xD I love, love love you guyses posts (and I adore your characters), but you posted so many~ And I don't think I can realistically finish a proper, normal update in the near future... Which means we need a solution.

Ze Facts:
1) My schedule isn't looking too great, I don't think it'll be possible for me to continue GMing (though I would like to).
2) It's getting harder and harder for me to work on the update. I have to leave town again in on Tuesday, so another week where I can't work on it at all. >_<;
3) I can post the part of it I have completed, as well as the results to all the skill checks (the results aren't all written yet, but I can do at least that).
4) Once that psuedo-update is posted, the game can either go into Mantis Syndicate 2 with a new GM, or you guys can just go totally freeform with it. Your call~

Do you want us to continue with the RP or wait till you get the post done? I don't want to give you too much to handle.
It would be great if you waited, yes. Thank you for asking :)

Sorry for this extended delay, friends.

My job also involves a fair bit of writing, and I got slammed with a project pretty hard. Work on the update started on the 13th and it has been progressing a little bit at a time. Hopefully you guys will see it up soon, there are a lot of posts for me to cover~

Oh, man, it's okay~ ^^ Haha, I had an idea in mind but your latest threw me off. Please, go ahead and continue; I'll focus on the update.
EDIT: Also I got unexpectedly busy >< Trying hard to has things out.

Alan will be confronting Eshra about this alcohol on his ship though, at some point.

Jedi Service Corps. PLEASE Jedi Service Corps. They're so often ignored, and so very perfect for colonist type RPs. I don't even know if I'd be able to join, I just need to put that idea out there. *shoves towards*

This probably goes without saying, but the current shift (as of Reply #12) is still Light.

(Still working on the update)

On it :D
On a different note would it be possible to purchase a regular weapon and then pay on the black market to have a template applied. The thought behind it would be paying to make significant modifications to a weapon to make it similar to one made by the template manufacturers. Has anyone ever thought about that? It won't make a significant difference right now since I can barely afford the weapon with a few modifications but just thinking ahead.
I think that one would be up to CX. But, let's just say that that's feasible. You have to find a black-market representative, make your order, pay the appropriate price for services AND the weapon, THEN wait the appropriate amount of time depending on the restricted nature of what you want applied to said weapon. If it's a lot of shady stuff then you're going to have to find someone that you can trust enough to wait for as they get the item prepared and then delivered. Plus there could be other fees that they could insert on their own behalf like transport, handling cargo, bribes, whatever else you might think of.

Z33B hit the nail on the head.

So before I can start working on an update, I'm forcing myself to finish a project (non-site or Star Wars related). Shouldn't take too long, already nearly half-way done and I only recently started on it. I'll also be out for a short excursion for part of this Wednesday and Friday, and all day Thursday.

Thanks for all the awesome posts guys~ Just want to keep you updated.
Once this is all over, my focus will be full-on Mantis Syndicate again (at least for a little while)
