Ok, so sorry about the long absence. A lot of field training missinons and problems with my internet access (not to mention a few other things that interfered).
I'm back for the time being. I'll do some reading tonight to see what I've missed and make a post either tonight or tomorrow.

It's okay, really, we just saved the world, most of our pokemons are around level 100 and the pokemon league is fully functional again. I'm trying to become an elite 4, as one of the last from the group and some character named Jak was sacrificed in a ritual to calm down a hungry pokemon.

You forgot the bit where we all caught Legendary Pokemon.

And don't forget about the hordes of pseudo-legendaries we have trained.
Anyway, I did not notice you hinting about who sabotaged the choppers.

Don't worry about it. Odds are they'll show up again...
Edit:
B-E-T-A and gnome- you two can continue your discussion over the copy machine if you like, just don't go too crazy.

Oh and also: Jab, since Sarah specifically went and found a bolt hole before going to sleep, she won't be woken up by default. If you want her to attend, either you can have her wake up on her own or tell me and I'll have somebody stumble over her by accident.

I think it is best if something or someone causes her to awake and attend at the meeting. You see it isn't really in Sarah interest to awake and leave the comfort of her sleeping bag. (especially not after just 2 - 3 hours, or how long has it past is it?)
(I just hope there won't be any consequences for destroying that lock pad )

@ Jab: Hope that works for you.
Also: updated the CS thread with the Map Christian was copying since for some reason I hadn't already done that and Zelgius and Christian's inventories have been updated with it. It's "Incomplete map version A", so if Christian gets the opportunity to update it his will become version "B" and so on; hopefully that'll help keep things straight.

But the idea of a camera eludes you.
gnomes, you are officially my new best friend!
I asked myself the exact same question when I first found out about it but GM is God so I did not complain...even thou I don't believe in God.

Naah, I should have held that rant years ago, maybe now we can get some answers. So yeah KI, I am standing behind gnomes in this one, Why no cameras?

Alright. Yes, that would work.
Query. Why wouldn't our pokedex have a camera? It does take pictures of pokemon to ID them, right? Or is this something that doesn't exist in Helnith?
To complete the rant,
So wait, your telling me that you can make a train, steel ships, computers that can send physical objects through a pipe system to other computers, medical devices that heal a creature by just applying a thin spay on the skin and a machine the size of my fist that is just a little airtight ball which somehow can hold a creature the size of Godzilla... But the idea of a camera eludes you.
(Sorry for any words not spelled correctly, but there is no spell check on this computer.)))
My logic is thus:
1.) The Pokedex 'scans' Pokemon, which is generally far more useful than taking pictures. Remember that this is a world with creatures that shape-shift, throw up illusions and so on—what good is a picture going to do you if you run into a Ditto pretending to be a rock?
2.) The Pokedex is an encyclopedia/research tool, and you're giving these things out to ten-year-olds most of the time. What's a ten year old going to do with a camera, photograph rare Pokemon or take pictures of their friends making funny faces at them? Sure, the former can happen, but most trainers operate under the assumption of 'I haven't seen it before--I should catch it!' anyway, and if they can’t catch it scanning gives you more info than a photograph would nine times out of ten.
3.) It’s not supported by the canon sources that there’s any kind of photography capability is built into the Pokedexes. Whenever they scan something, it brings up a pic with a blank background, not a shot of wherever the Pokemon being scanned happens to be, and Pokemon that haven’t been encountered and aren’t in the database bring up no picture at all.
Explanation enough for you both?

Hmmm... Not quite
My question is now this, what if the trainer needs to "Scan" something that isn't a pokemon with his/ her pokedex?
Also, what the h(eck) kind of wold developed a scanner before a camera?!

Quote: Zelgius watched Christian, yes, that was the boys name, walk out mumbling something about paper and Zelgius took a look at what could be so godawfully important that the boy would have to wake everyone up at 7 to print.
It looked like a map.
Note: To self; Remember to state EVERYTHING you do in FULL detail, or else the GM will say you did not do things((Like taking important paper WITH you instead of leaving it unprotected)) that falls into my "its so obvious it should not need stating' box.
Not that you will have to change anything don't get me wrong, I just found out the hardway what an arse KI can be to allow this...
Also, If the pokédex don't have a camera function, what about mobile phones? I remember having one.

Then you use something else to get your information, ask someone or figure out whatever it is yourself. You don’t use a cookbook to fix your car, you wouldn’t use your Pokedex to do same.
Quote: Also, what the h(eck) kind of wold developed a scanner before a camera?!
Huh??? What on earth makes you think they haven’t developed cameras? You don’t have one. Likewise, you don’t have a car, airplane, or Legendary Pokemon. That doesn’t mean they don’t exist.
Quote: Note: To self; Remember to state EVERYTHING you do in FULL detail, or else the GM will say you did not do things((Like taking important paper WITH you instead of leaving it unprotected)) that falls into my "its so obvious it should not need stating' box.
Given some of the outright stated IC decisions that have been made so far, I’m going to dispute the claim that this is an obvious thing to do.
Quote: Also, If the pokédex don't have a camera function, what about mobile phones? I remember having one.
You do have a mobile phone. But if it has a built in camera, you have to explain to me why you didn’t use it back in Rieva, or Moontear, or any other time you’ve tried to take pictures with your Pokedex instead.

The Army is going to kiil me. I need a vacation so bad.
Ok, I did my reading and the last post I saw regarding Jak was something about him seeing something white in a pond. KI, should I let you elaborate on this or are you really going to let my twisted mind field this one lol?
