My bad, targets only get the resistance checks each round when affected by the first and second degrees of Failure for Affliction, and the third degree of failure has a recovery time of 1 minute unless affected by Treatment skill, Healing power or other effect that can removed the condition before the minute duration.

Perhaps we should be a little more explicit when are in and out of combat rounds. I got a bit confused on the last part.

Alright. I'll make sure I'll announce when combat starts and ends.

"The zoanoids left their dead behind?"

Did they, GM? Cable controlled them telepathically it seems like, but did he make them leave? If not, did any of us (sans Parker) see what Cable did with the zoanoids?

Cable told them to return where they came from and not come back.

I think the reason there was a week between this post and the next one is that this does not answer the question. The question, "Did the zoanoids leave their dead?" is not answered by "Cable told them to return."

So did the zoanoids leave their dead or not?

(And does it really matter for me contacting spirits?)

No problem with moving forward from here, whatever the situation is, but I figured this might be why the momentum stopped for a bit. I'll answer faster to keep things going, and I'm really enjoying the game so far and want it to keep going!

That is why I waited 5 days for another character to post before I posted in gameplay again (as Parker was waiting for a response from one his classmates).

They did leave their dead.

The playtest documents for M&M 4th edition is on sale at drivethru!

You can check them out here.

I think we are waiting for the specifics on how to use the boom tubes to travel to our hometowns and back to the school.

We saw Cable press some buttons and then the Batman appeared via the boom tube.

How many boom tubes are there in the special gym?

Mount Justice in the Young Justice T.V. show showed two.

Thanks.

Is the current scene ready to wrap up and send us to our next class?

Also: is going 'home' supposed to be a thing?

I wasn't sure if this was some kind of opportunity or railroading or nostalgia or what. I will admit that I have only watched a few of the shows, but I'd have to imagine the boom tube episode was interesting, given what might or might not qualify as a "home town" to say, a martian and a clone.

With regards to the above, I'm not opposed to a little handholding with story direction either. I feel like this scene was supposed to elicit something, and I missed it. Or maybe Jaime is supposed to have a home town, or maybe he's supposed to like that place, or maybe be homesick, or something. I'd be happy to hear :)

"Going Home" happens off camera. It's a way that you can rest up for the next day. And for those wondering, the next scene is the next episode. :)

And yes, this scene is due to a wrap up!

I will take a look this weekend; just need to get HBO Max reinstalled.

I wonder who our science teacher is going to be...

Actually, I want to cut to the next day. :)

But it could be Professor Martin Stein.

I'm all for skipping to the next day.

Bring on the next day! :)

Carpe diem

Do our characters each have a private bedroom in Mount Justice, shared dorm-style bedrooms in Mount Justice or do we use the boom tubes each day to travel to/from the school?

Superboy and Megaan had rooms in Mount Justice. The others used the Boom tubes.

Thanks. I do not recall if it was Kid Flash or Superboy who collected souvenirs from their missions...I want to say Kid Flash...and whoever is the souvenir collector putting them on the wall/book shelf in their room (which I think was in Mount Justice...).

It was Kid Flash.

Very cool

I used the location of Mount Justice from the show for my last post - Happy Harbour, Rhode Island.

I totally forgot when I was doing the post that in-game the school is in Independence, Missouri.

Below is the sentence that should be swapped in for the revelant sentence.

I'll get my post out. It's been a mad week. Extra work, and at home, the neighbor is getting their roof replaced, so it's lots of hammering all day long.

I'll finally be able to get my post out tonight.

In the meantime, feel free to look at this art of Catrina Ortiz, aka Miss Calaveras, from Storn Cook!

WOW - that is fantastic!

Stalled? Everyone okay?

Been sick for a week now. I'll be posting today. It's finally clearing

Nice that you're getting well.

Are Batman and Righteous Wrath still around? They haven't posted since July.

That's what I was wondering.

I hope they are okay.

Continue playing without recruiting or reopen recruitment, Elton?

I'm good with things either way. Since it's a school, they can just fade into the background and other characters can arrive or not.

I hope they are okay.

I can reopen recruitment for two more heroes. :)

I'm going to be traveling for the next two weeks, so I won't be able to respond here quickly. Feel free to bot me as needed.

Team Zion: not sure it will matter, but I'm going to be away for the weekend. Yay. Happy birthday to me. Bot me as needed.

Happy birthday!

Last time I hid a campaign I never figured out how to un-hide it.
Should we be hiding this one?

I think we can save it.

How many active players are hanging on?

I think four. I've been waiting on people to roleplay their characters so we can get to the mission I have planned.

When we lost two, thats when I started up recruitment again.

I am still active.

I can ask one of my friends to see if he might be interested. I will keep you posted.

I would suggest that we go with the four players that we have and generate posting momentum for the story. Posting begets posting

The friend I was thinking of is too busy to commit to a daily posting PBP, but likes the idea of reading up on the gameplay when he has time, and if down the line if we want are looking for new players to join and his free time has opened up more, he would be potentially interested in joining.
