OOC (Star Wars RP)

I didn't realize that datapads didn't transmit and the way yours read was kind of like a, "Oh YEAH?!" so... I wanted to nip it in the bud. However, if I'm being fair about this, Zerek can't do it unless he has a scanner/jammer.
 
Okay then. So... how has Zerek been putting his ship into lockdown through his datapad then? Including activating the surprises. If I remember right, I already cleared the datapad's ability to transmit signals. And it may not come standard on datapads, but upgrades are a thing. Zerek's datapad is far from standard. He's spent some cash upgrading the thing.
 
well, this is the first time it was contested. Again, I didn't know this info about datapads until this morning. I can buy that he's been upgrading it (due to the fact of Zerek's character), but you may want to mention its scanner/jammer attachment if that is the case.

If Zerek can have a tablet that can scan and jam frequencies, HK-51 should be allowed to have a frequency-detonated bomb that starts a countdown timer when it receives duplicate signals.
 
The reason I'm nixing that, Constantin, is, as I said earlier, your post read as a knee-jerk reaction, as a one-upping of sorts. So. No, if the signals are identical there's no reason for it to start. Zerek jammed 51's signal and transmitted his own. There's no reason for the bomb to be able to tell the difference. And, as mentioned before, you never said you had such a device. Therefore, my ruling stands.
 
Very well, let me go back and take out the part about scanning frequencies. I wasn't trying to one up anyone, I just thought since shadow could introduce something I wasn't aware of, I could introduce something he wasn't aware of.

Zerek's ability to use such things has been established and, honestly, until today I thought datapads could transmit. Since it's already RP canon that Zerek's can and he's demonstrated that several times, it's fine for him to use. As you didn't clear that with me ahead of time or put any meta clues it was kind of a "out of nowhere" contingency for the rest of us.
 
Holy shit , apparently I was needed as Continuity Officer while I was at the theater. Terribly sorry I wasn't availible everyone.

It's all good, nothing is exploding today. I can't think of any way for HK to jam both signals with the information I have that wouldn't be cheaty.

So.. This isn't going to happen anytime soon? <p><a href="<fileStore.core_Attachment>/monthly_2016_07/image.gif.6c335e9c105281017c45c61b604ccf6d.gif" class="ipsAttachLink ipsAttachLink_image"><img data-fileid="144108" src="<fileStore.core_Attachment>/monthly_2016_07/image.gif.6c335e9c105281017c45c61b604ccf6d.gif" class="ipsImage ipsImage_thumbnailed" alt=""></a></p>Thank god , I am not equipped to mediate right now..


Well , TWO of them could do it , but 09 is on a mission to kill his bastard nephew , and 01 would just lie and say he can't do it. And also kind of wants to kill his bastard son.

The only thing I can come up with is that since he is a super high tech assassin droid who spends days planning missions like this, he probably would have considered a possibility where his signal based explosive was compromised and he would have to bring a signal jammer to isolate the frequency and jam both his frequency as well as the device that's replicating it in order for the device to work. However, I didn't mention the signal jammer in any previous post, but I'm also not a crazy droid who uses advanced algorithms to calculate several thousand possible outcomes, I'm a human writing about one, every option I can come up with will seem reactionary, because it is. Unfortunately the alternative is to have an assassin droid that doesn't plan for hiccups in his schemes.

Hey , our characters have faults somewhere.. 09 basically had no plan at all except 'get in , get brother and his best friend , get out'. 09 kind of doesn't think shit through like he should.. That shit might run in the family.

I would agree with you if they weren't robots programmed to kill and destroy, as well as learn better ways to kill and destroy.

But they're also overconfident assholes , too. Maybe 6P didn't think anyone would live long enough or be smart enough to do what Zerek did , because Fleshsacks are idiots and inferior to droids. He probably also didn't think he'd see TWO HK series droids there , either. Sometimes plans hit a brick wall against shit the planner either overlooked/laughed at or just couldn't see coming.

True that, the HK droids are known for that, but that's kind of where I wanted to differentiate my droid from other HK's just like 01 is a traumatized wimp and 09 is a cocky asshole, I wanted 51 to be the obsessive assassin who only cares about success, so he would be the perfectionist that doesn't underestimate his enemies.

I see , I see. A bit more like IG-88 , then. That makes some sense. But we also do have to remember that everyone in that entire portion of the academy dying really would f*ck over the RP , heh.


Also , working on a reply still. Need to figure out the exit stuff..
 
HOLY SHIT , that took forever. Sorry everyone.. I had to stop to eat around 1/4 of the way through that and.. Life finds a way. To make it take forever to post.

@The Great Catsby , that application form has several things of issue , and shall not be accepted.


Starting with the most low hanging fruit , people don't get 'enrolled' in the Jedi Academy(s). The Jedi find them or they train themselves. And at 13 , it's extremely , extremely unlikely they'd be accepted to the Order. They certainly would still be at Padawan at this point , or even Apprentice. And how did she build a Lightsaber BEFORE joining the Jedi Order? At this stage there *are* more crystal caves than Illum , but all those are still Jedi-Controlled. Most *trained jedi* fail at making their first Lightsaber , as well.
 
...fucking bold again. Goddamnit!


I'm sick of this Mutha-fuckin bold in this mutha-Fuckin reply!

Sometimes it's a blessing to have to retype this entire thing , because I thought of better stuff - the kind of stuff that makes it easier to see what he's really thinking and why he's so conflicted..


Plus , now I know my hands work well , so..
