Project: Live Runs (Application Thread)

[SnowCrash]

As some of you already noticed, there was a Live Run test yesterday, where a group of players had to do a "job".

It was about getting back a Datadisc, that was stolen from a renegade BioTech scientist. Now the Runners had to find the NPCs to get clues about the location of this scientist. All those NPCs were played by GMs, which made the role-playing experience much more intense. This run, getting back a Datadisc is just one of the possibilities of what such a job could be like. The required skill level is being dynamically adjusted to the strength of the players.

Since this test was successful, we will keep following this concept and flesh it out more. These live runs can’t be done without a big team though, so this needs intensive planning. We think that we can offer a few of those runs per week on all servers with player groups of 15 players maximum.

To know if players are even interested in those runs, I want you to put the following information in this thread if you are interested. There will be one player selected who will lead the group and will be in direct contact with the client. You will only need to organize your group well if you want to solve the job.

Character name:

Server:

Contacting Time: (when are you usually online?)

We will be selecting different player groups from this list and contact the players in-game. Please keep in mind though, that we will probably not be able to supply all players with those runs. It may take some time until you get a Job offer. Player groups who already did a Job will be moved to the end of the list, and have the possibility to get a new job after some time.

As soon as the concept is fully worked out, the first runs will start. You should keep checking your mail regularly and keep your eyes and ears open for the next few weeks.

Here are some rules that will need to be followed during those runs:

- OOC Talk in any form is strictly forbidden. None of the NPCs will react to OOC talk, and may even abort the run if this should get out of hand.

- Should a run degrade into senseless fighting, we will put a stop to it.

- Should certain player groups disturb the runs in a massive way and/or repetitively, they may suffer certain consequences

[SnowCrash]

Thanks for your attention but please open another thread for the discussions. This one should only be for Run applications. Thanks. ;)

[Edit: D3ik was so kind to open an extra Discussion Thread (http://neocron.jafc.de/showthread.php?s=&threadid=73354) for this issue. Please use this for further discussions. Thanks.]

[El Barto]

Cool idea,

Name: El Barto

Server: Pluto

Time: about 4pm UK time

[Nullifidian]

I'd love to participate in one of these runs, but currently I'm not active at regular times. I can be active at a particular time if given prior notice.


The character I now play is:

Mentis Biberer
APU Monk
Crahn Sect
Saturn Server


I can be online:
Monday: 6PM-10PM EDT
Tuesday: 6PM-8PM EDT
Wednesday 6PM-10PM EDT
Thursday: 6PM-8PM EDT
Friday: 6PM-10PM EDT

*EDIT - UPDATED WITH CET TIMES*
CET:
Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday: 12AM-4AM
Wednesday, Friday: 12AM-2AM


Saturday and Sunday are toss-ups. Most weekends aren't booked or anything so I could log on at any time. Though many times my weekend plans will change on the spur of the moment, so I usually like to keep them open.

The times I listed are times I'm available though. These are not times that I'm am guaranteed to always be logged in at; they are times that I CAN be logged in. This means if asked to be online during one of those times, in advance, I'll make sure to schedule it, barring an emergency.


Sorry my times are so terrible for Germany and all. I live and work in the US, so there really isn't anything I can do about it. Perhaps I should request a transfer to Switzerland. Or maybe just a 3 month business trip.

My timetable is actually rather random. I _can_ be on but I'm not always on (i.e. have interests outside NC *gasp* ).

If I can help by playing a non-run role, either as NPC or directed-PC, I'm also happy to do so (e.g. act as scripted for run rather than do run). Maybe that will help make GMs life easier?

Now KK, I dont want to put a downer on your Ideas, But you have said those who try to stop the runners doing the run in some way or another may face consequences..

What if were roleplaying and want to stop them from doing this run? Effictivly your just saying "well, were doing this, dont stop them, we want it to go perfect" when of course you know that cant happen.

TBH I hope someone does take it upon themselves to slow the progress of those doing the run, Would make it far more tense, and more of a race, than just talking to NPC's

*yawn* :o

i can see what you mean clock. and don't get me wrong i dig that idea. i believe what kk meant was unnecessary battle ie dealing with camping pkers
