Wow.
Anyhow… The busting of la funeral.
The funeral was set up purely for the purpose of being busted, the whole thing was GM prompted and put together with the assistance of a few players. That said, as I'm pretty DAMNED sure has already been said, the gangers did -NOT- reclone by some mystical admin assisted power to be guided back into the fray. NPC's reclone at the exact instant of death, that's how it's coded, it prolly needs changing, but at that exact time it was out of admin hands how quick the NPC's recloned.... Now, figure, the funeral was located what? 4, maybe 5 locations from genetek revival? What happens when an NPC respawns? Code is immediately invoked to walk the NPC back to his/her home location/area. So, the NPC's actually, without any admin control, strolled obliviously on their merry way home right back into the combat zone, where another little piece of code that makes NPC's assist their friends launched them back into the combat alongside the NPC's that hadn't already died. In some cases it was actually you players that attacked the new arrivals, restarting the whole cycle.
The NPC judges present didn't attack because they were all under my control and I was frantically searching through code and props to figure out why the fuck they couldn't attack anything...
But still, stick with the admin conspiracy theory, it'll float.
fuckers
First of all... The Funeral was crazy due to the fact certain people could not be attacked due to some code that needed fixing... and trying to puppet 10 NPCs at once is not a fun thing. The reason they were able to come back was because of the slow clone issue on NPCs which was/is being fixed because of that one situation (again, BETA TESTING...) I'd also like to point out that none of the NPCs came back until actual players who were involved in the fight came back from cloning and joined the battle again!
All these people and all this stuff? They are being paid off by an entity with large resources.. yes he has access to deckers. I don't know what you're talking about deleting clones and chip-unlockers though. I'd also like to point out that other people do have access to these things.
They can kill anyone whenever they want? No, that's not true either. And from an IC perspective you're damn lucky to even be still alive and on Red.. I gave you a chance ICly because I didn't have the time to get into this plot, but since you continue to stay around where you were told to leave then you need to deal with the consequences ICly.
It's damn simple for you to just leave that level and start your little business somewhere higher up.. you have the resources. You chose to stay so you're going to face the consequences. I've gone into this more ICly than I wanted to, but you just don't seem to be getting it.
Next on the list... Damon is leaving... why he (like me) can be an obnoxious ass, he will be missed. I just want to wish him luck with the next 7 weeks, and hope that he hasn't lost his edge when he gets back. ;)
Adios amigo!!!
Laters.
