When I used to play GURPS we always took independently focusable eyes so you could fire at two targets simultaneously.

Why do I get this image of a lazy-eyed Dirty Harryesque character walking down the street mowing down zombies with dual Colt .45s?

SO I think just Rad needs to pick one and Sam has to decide.

Flash/Sam - Either: Point Blank Shot/Quick Reload or Point Blank Shot/Precise Shot.

I'm gonna go with Point Blank Shot and Precise Shot I think. You can reload as part of a move action I believe, so Quick Reload is not as necessary.


Oh and Quick Reload seems to be the smart move on feats ..so sign me up on that bad boy.


Free feats

Shiny/Mike - Personal Firearms Proficiency and Two-Weapon Fighting.
Mothman/Judd - Point Blank Shot and Quick reload
Flash/Sam - Point Blank Shot and Precise Shot.
Sarge - Personal Firearms Proficiency and Quick reload
Johnnie - PFP and ????

Point Blank Shot.


So we're good to go.

Hey guys, had a busy weekend, and busyness continues at work today. Will try to post a reply and update character sheet today, but may not happen until I am home and settled tonight.

There's been a lot of this going around.

On my end: I've been proctoring and grading like a madman. I move in two weeks and start a job on August 1st. Crazy! Just crazy!

I get the feeling that work is picking up all around because the Chinese Ghost Month is almost upon us.

<===Watching Dawn of the Dead 2004

Thought it might help me writing tomorrow's post.

Yeah, to me that version of Dawn of the Dead is really a quintessential Zombie movie. It's exactly what I imagine every Zombie Plague/Armageddon Scenario to be like.

Man, now I am gonna have to go and find that movie again so I can watch it and get in the mood. It's been a while (hmmm, 4 years maybe)
If I can find it I should be able to pick it up on the cheap. Finding it could be a problem though, and I'd rather not rent it when I can probably buy it for a couple of bucks more.

Finally got my hand on this yesterday. $9.90 fom EziDVD. Keen to start watching. =)

Ghost Month


Well, I sure couldn't be any busier.


Rad must have finally reached the limit. Haven't seen him for a while.

IT was funny when one guy did it. Then a month later everyone had it.

GURPS... Power gamers.

Ah yes, the power gamers. Always fun to mess with. As a wise GM once explained to me:

"Not all problems can be solved with a sword."

Nursing a headache... the headace is not cooperating.


Life is strange.

In 2001 I was contracting in Edmonton, Canada, and they had the first generation of those thermometers on display at a Grainger shop. So the description is probably pretty true to what you'd find in Grainger North Van today.


Shiny, I think everyone had three free ranks in drive, and no proficiency is required for the usual 4 wheeled vehicles.


I'm moving. Who knows what this will do to my posting for the next 10 days.

So Kruel, hows the new place and the new job shaping up? Are you far from where you were living previously?

Actually I live practically across the street from my old place. We moved into a gated apt. and condo complex with gardens so my girl can go out and play. The last place was comfy and beautiful inside but outside nightly drunken arguments and urinating, monthly fights...

The job is something completely new, I've been hired to go into a factory and put my critical thinking skills up against their scheduling problems (title: scheduling manager), as well as usher in what is supposed to be really tight product scheduling software called Preactor. The company makes women's wigs for Jewish ladies, the fashion, music, and entertainment industries, and for cancer patients. We've probably all seen some of the wigs made in this factory in our favorite hollywood movies. They are pretty well the best wigmakers in the world. Every single wig is custom made and there are more than a 1000 on order.... yikes.

So when dicks come in here and beak off about Chinese workers in sweatshop factories I guess I'm gonna have some words. It's a pretty classy factory.

It'll slow down my posting here but it's a great opportunity to get experience that is quite valuable in the outsourced world. And the money is better.

So next week, Chinese craftswomen start teaching me wigmaking in Chinese, because the first thing I need to learn is how the hell the whole place works....

Oh yeah, and I have to teach some of the staff English.

For the record, I detest it when people drive with the phone to their ear, and I think texting whilst driving is just the most stupid thing imaginable. I will give people who do so a piece of my mind (or at least the finger) whenever the opportunity presents itself. I once chased a guy down on foot for three blocks to tell him exactly what I thought of him after he nearly ran me down because he was talking on the phone whilst driving around a corner.

But Judd doesn’t mind too much if he hits a zombie whilst texting and driving.

LOL I don't have a cell phone. Actually that's a lie, I have a pay-as-you-go phone with 100 emergency minutes I keep in my car on the off chance I get in an accident. Currently I think I've used 3 mins in a year. I commute 1 1/2 hours every day I work in that sinkhole of asscrackery, the Massachusetts highway system. I have almost lost my life several times to those cell-phone using idiots.

Recently I bought a bumper sticker that reads,

Would you drive better if I shoved that cell phone up your ass?

You wouldn't believe the dirty looks I get >;)

Male Mothman Expert 5

Ha! Gotta get me one of those.


I've got a speakerphone that rocks, doesn't pick up much background noise and does great with voice, thanks Samsung. I can sit it on a dashboard and chat away.

All I need now is a car.

That's almost exactly my situation, minus the fact that I don't have a car.

I don't even know where my phone is.


Ok Shiny's last post has raised the bar for humor on this thread. That was seriously f&#~in hilarious.


DO NOT STICK FINGERS IN CAGE

Yeah, good deadpan delivery for the Supertramp


But then maybe you have to go to Tijuana to get it.... I dunno.


DO NOT STICK FINGERS IN CAGE

I haven't been there, but I have been to Juarez and Nogales. I can't imagine they are too different in feel. I remember I once volunteered to participate in building a house in the Juarez Colonia for a Habitat for Humanity-style charity. It was amazing that people lived in such conditions. Real eye-opener.

Currently listenting to this. Lemme know what you think.


Catchy. I've heard that before. Sounds a little like Simple Minds.

very 80s.

You know I think these guys are still together.

OK, so currently we have:

Myself - Osirion
Mothman - Andoran
Radavel - Cheliax
Patrick - Qadira

A real mixed bag.
Kruel, you're gonna be stuck with Taldor I'm afraid, unless you don't get in before Shiny comes back from holidays, then your stuck with DM duties only. =)

Flash, we're having a barbecue at the Cheliax thread. Come join us.


Well, I've been so busy.... How the hell do you join a faction?
