Hm, also, given my open invitation, I've been invited to join some other group. Is it worth me doing so, for information or the like? Is there any benefit to be gained by playing two sides?

I think groups are revealed in the narration, so it would be discovered rather quickly you aren't joining their team.

[eddiedean]

Ah, OK then. I'll let them know I'm answered for.

[delphie]

Jaenther wants to know if we have room. He claims to be a swift medic.

[eddiedean]

Having two medics means they can confirm each other and then each of us, I'd vote yes to that.

[eddiedean]

OK, It's now 0:30 GMT, and I'm going to go to sleep until around 9:00 GMT, at which point I'll rejoin discussion.

To confirm my intentions until then:
* I'd vote for adding another medic, so we can all trust ourselves
* Aside from that, I'd advise observance of our four man (plus bonuses) optimal team size
* I'd vote for creating a false group name then joining some other, to shake off stragglers
* I have a pipebomb available and would be interested in a ranged weapon to make better use of my skillset.

Kime did you invite frosty? If not I say we go with jaenther since he is claiming to be medic and two medics would be very useful in keeping our group clean.

*edit* nevermind frosty is in, that being said do we still want jaenther?

[frostmist]

he did

[delphie]

Looks like we have 5 in total and eddie's ability makes our group function as though it were 3 for purposes of special infected attacks. So do we have room for one more?

[alegis]

Eddie has -2 and I have -1 size, so that's -3 in total. 7 team members without penalty, 8 for 80% chance of knocking off a special infected.

Of course with a large group it may be troublesome if someone is infected, but with extra firepower we may not get bitten.

I'm up for it. We got the -size modifiers so we may as well use them.

[delphie]

Ok i'll invite him

should i give him the proboard straight off the bat or should we investigate him first?

or does the proboard require approval before you can join?

[isquish]

romanquerty is another medic (w/ swift) that wants in. I don't believe the pro board is requiring authorization yet (or kime is just ninja fast at okay'ing new accounts).

Anyway, I only got a melee weapon and a med kit. No goodies to trade.

According to the narration, there are going to be 20(!!) waves of zombies, with 5 - 15 brain-eaters in each... So yeah, we'll need all the help we can get!

I was about to tell him theres no room, before I saw that we now have two people with the group extending talents. Either way, it's another option for us.

[delphie]

Awful lot of medics + swift running around. I told jaenther he could come in but that should put us right at 4 (including bonuses) and two medics should be plenty

[isquish]

btw, I'm all for bringing Jae in. That'll bring us up to our max (without penalties), so I'll tell roman that we're all full.

Muahahaha!

I should be working, therefore I'm constantly refreshing sites trying to stall....

[jaenther]

Definitely required me to register.

Also, also: I've picked up incendiary ammo. Hopefully we'll see more guns turn up tonight.
