Azi, Maddy, and George:

As Maddy's character pointed out in-character on the Autumn Star, Cnossos could not have heard the message, and should have no knowledge beyond what the captain has mentioned in the briefing.

I suspect this was an honest mistake on your part, but I think it does need to be addressed. Because if Cnossos actually knows this stuff, that suggests he already knew who would be reaching out to us, which to our other characters would seem deeply suspicious. There's also currently no narrative reason for him to know it.

For the sake of continuity, I would request that the three of you edit your post to remove mention of the information that Cnossos shouldn't know. I think Azi should only have to remove this bit:

Captain Castell, the woman in silken robes had not told you her name, she apparently guessed it was you involved, and she wanted the research supplies amidst an offline facility and disappeared patrols. If the silky woman knew you, she knew of your reputation, knew that we were expendable.

And George and Maddy should only have to edit the parts of their posts that call Cnossos out.

Even if you don't want to make the edits, I think it would be best if our characters carry on as if the exchange didn't happen, to prevent our characters from getting too hung up on it IC. It was a continuity error on my part. Since the roleplay was partly inspired by Mass Effect (as its first post mentions), and since Cnossos wears a military suit, I figured he would have been able to pick it up and overhear it. I think this came from how, in Mass Effect, there are moments in-game and during cutscenes where characters communicate in this manner.

I'll see what the thread master wants to be done, just in case I make another mistake. As the users who know me past few years, I have a tendency to screw-up and then screw-up even more, so I'll take this slow.

Hello, I hope New York is going as best as possible amidst the craziness. Hours upon hours upon hours of police brutality, but I am glad you're around.

Anyways, I am heading to work soon, gtg in a couple mins. I hope Taleisin can respond to the continuity error so that we verify beforehand what I need to do.

Glad that NYC is improving, it was hit really hard but now things are getting better. Hopefully, everything remains like that.

In other positive news, AOC seems to have made a decent jump in her campaign. She didn't need Wall Street or corporate funds, either, so that's really good--politics are heading the right direction at least there! Amidst all the insanity, a spark of a new beginning and a better future.



Oh, and before I forget, in Omega, Annie, you are reacting to Atarashi's segment. I edited the current post to entitle each portion to their according user to make it clearer.

I saw the continuity error. I would agree that such a thing probably would not happen without Booker's say so as messages patch through him.

It also is not worth being bothered over and we can just ignore this error and continue as normal with the assumption that only Jaden and Booker heard the message. :)
Everyone has the potential to be an asshat in a flower crown.

OK, we'll continue as is. I'll slightly edit my latest two posts anyways.

Also, what about Cnossos' suggestion of taking to the space pirates they dealt with prior to the RP? I do not recall any further mentions of what happened to them. They might provide some extra details.
