[EM] It's Not Personal. It's Business.

[Don't panic]

Where are we? Need more X's...

I say we go to J and that will give us prime access to everything we haven't already checked.

agreed.

see map in 921. we are in the "F" hallway, in the company of the remains of 3 blown-up goons and maybe their weapons.
it's possible the bomb destroyed everything of value there.

you realize that mscriv was considering using the Bigbomb for the room with the enforcer, but being the softy he is, he didn't in order to save you? Of course in hindsight Queen and Koo would probably disagree on the move

I'm well aware of the pecking order, and I hope you all play pong with your bodies and a spray of bullets.

Awww, he's my favorite!!

This is hurtful.

LOL, it wasn't like that, i was totally on board with the move because i didn't think they had so much destructive power, so i was sure i had enough meds for everybody.
after we got blown I had to take a decision and i thought your specialty was the least necessary one, given that by then we had found the don's location. maybe it was a mistake, but it was a strategic decision not personal. i am sorry if you feel otherwise.


edit: i remember the excitement when Pong came out. it was like "wow, you can do That?!?!"

More or less hurtful than being discarded like last week's cold cuts by your assassin pals?

Pong was before my time, but I spent many a happy day as a wee one blasting away at the ducks in Duck Hunt, positive the future had come.

And I'm teasing you guys, of course.

And yet here you are, playing my games, with even worse graphics!

mscriv?

This is true, it didn't really work out for us, but like DP said I didn't figure they had that much firepower.

Sorry about being absent. We decided to extend our vacation by a day and yesterday was very busy and today was spent on the road.


Round 16
- Turn 1: Search room M for the drugs that were missed the first time
- Turn 2: Move into Room L
- Turn 3: Move into Room F
- Turn 4: Move into Room J.

[ravenvii]

Moved.

Bad guys, PM time.

 

[Don't panic]

Moved.

Bad guys, PM time.

can we get an official map?

 

[ravenvii]

Bad guys' turn forfeit. Over to you guys.

Will write story tomorrow.

MAP:

 

[Don't panic]

i guess it's up to you again to do 'your thing', Mo

 

[Moyank24]

i guess it's up to you again to do 'your thing', Mo

Rooms are empty...

I'll be able to update you on the map when I get home from my completely unproductive day at work.

And seriously, boys. Must I do all of the work?

"That's a big hole you've made there, doc."

mscriv is kneeling over the edge of the circular crater created by the bazooka's mis-fire.

The hole leads directly down to the large dining room on the first floor - where they've bagged their first pieces of gold.

"Should we go down?" Moyank24 said as the doctor mended her wounds. Everyone is finally standing somewhat steadily as the doctor finished his rounds through the room. As they knew before the doctor checked on the gunslinger, the man was declared dead.

"Yeah, there's **** all on this floor, that ****ing key gotta be downstairs some ****ing where," the drug dealer said.

"Let's go, then." Without further ado, Moyank24 hopped down the hole and landed on the dining table. "Well? Let's go!" Moyank24's voice came up through the hole.

mscriv and the drug dealer helped the barely-standing doctor down the hole, then hopped down themselves.

Except for the hole in the ceiling and fallen chandeliers, the room was the same as they left it.

"There's drugs that we missed back here," Moyank24's voice came from behind them.

"How--?" mscriv said before deciding not to bother asking. They followed the voice into the room where they had gunned down a goon a long time ago. Behind one of the chairs was, indeed, a bag of drugs. Moyank24 held it up as the drug dealer approached her.

"They're legit," the drug dealer said before grabbing the drugs.

"How do you know?"

"I know my ****ing stuff, okay?"

Turning around, the drug dealer reached inside the baggie and took out four pills. "Take those."

"What is it?" mscriv asked.

"Same **** I gave you before. Made things go slow and ****, you know?"

As they popped the pills into their mouths one by one, mscriv recognized the sensation that spread throughout his body. It was indeed the same glorious sensation.

"We should check the rooms that we skipped last time," mscriv said. No one voiced any disagreements.

They left the room, and walked straight through the hallway, turning to the right and continuing all the way down the hallway into a small room with several doors all around.

"****, which one?" the drug dealer groaned.

but , you do it sooo well....

when you have time, can you give us descriptions of the other rooms (in particular how many other doors they have and where are they located.

specifically:
- do the two side-by-side door to the south lead into the same room ("O" in my map),
- is "I" a single large room all the way down to the curved wall and to "G" room on the other side

- does d31 lead to a room or hall? how many doors from there?

Moyank, I know it's got to be hard juggling both this game and the WW game at the same time. Since you have a map and a little more detail then we do, where do you think we should go next? I think both DP and I are comfortable defering to your decision at this point. Obviously, the goal is to go where we can use your special talents to continue to gain the most information possible.

We obviously have an advantage at this point with the speed boost. Let's try to use it to maximum effectiveness.

It's not difficult juggling at all - the problem comes in trying to compare 2 maps at the same time. I can't see the maps at work, and it's almost impossible to do it on my phone.

That said, let's move into room C and go from there - that should give us access to room O and the front porch. And hopefully raven will be able to fill in some of the blanks with the map.

Round 17
- Turn 1: Move into Room C

 

[appleguy123]

This is STILL going on? How close to over is it now? Are you guys still having fun?

 

[mscriv]

I'm still having fun. It's odd that our game taking time seems to bother so many people.

here is an updated map (from what i can reconstruct.

so is "P" and "C" the same room?
do the two door south lead into a single room ("O")?
is "I" a big large room as depicted here? or is there additional space south or between it and the explored room to the right?

 

[appleguy123]

It doesn't bother me. I think it's cool, extraordinary, in fact that you guys are still entertained. I would have dropped out by now.

I didn't mean to offend AG, it's just that you are not the first to come in here and express suprise or what appears to be frustration or confusion that we are "still playing" this game. I appreciate you clarifying your position.

The EM games are very different than the WW games and can take longer to play even though there are less participants. It's also a different kind of strategy which is fun.
