I can't tell you how funny this is, players begging other players to hack their comms.
One very important defense roll for Sam's commlink to resist the spoof command:
4 hitsThat makes Doc's final Overwatch Score is
37. He unplugs and reboots moments before hitting the 15-minute threshold where we would be adding 2d6, which would have been +7.
Moving forward: Katsina would definitely hear Sam and Chino return and would be curious about Doc going to the garage to greet them. Zweiblumen's IC post also alludes to Doc not being that quiet. Katsina has good hearing and would be alert enough to wake Ace. OOCly, I certainly don't want to leave Ohanzee/Malevolence out of the conversation simply because no one explicitly wakes him up. Mal, feel free to use whatever IC justification you see fit to hear people moving around in the house: still awake, heard the garage door open, etc.
I was going to post ICly about the snowmobile trip back to the house but it was all color and fluff. I don't want to interrupt the flow of the IC conversation, which is awesome. I don't have time to post as Katsina at the moment but I will in the morning. Please continue the conversation!
