Being poetic recently...  Don't know why.

Maybe you grow tired of all that killing ;)

Be an interesting run to have some players go into the PCC to destroy some old computer in a bunker not hooked up to the net since after Crash 2.0.  hmmm....  New idea for a game:-)
No, no, no.

While doing another mission that requires going through, they notice the computer that's not hooked up to the matrix. The hacker (perhaps with a subtle GM hint) thinks "paydata".
Might work but I usually have my players so busy trying to stay alive that they probably would miss it or ignore the extra computer entirely.
"Look, just pull the drive and let's get out of here!"

"The cabinet is ALL DRIVE!"

"Mike."

"Damnit, I'm the Rigger, yet I have to do all the heavy lifting just because I'm a Troll.  THIS IS RACIAL PROFILING, YOU KNOW!"

"Less complaining, more carrying valuable Paydata."

lol pretty funny.  I am waiting for my new group to gel a little more then we should start getting some one liners.

Trust me, I never miss any glaringly obvious handles. Puck, Dodger, Hong Kong Cavaliers...
I know the Hong Kong Cavaliers but I'm not sure about Puck and Dodger. Buck Rogers? Duck Dodgers?

I meant to say I don't know what their handles are referencing.

A few others pointed it out earlier (or at least hinted) at:

Puck - the mischievous "narrator - fey" of Shakespear's A Midsummer Night's Dream.
Dodger - character from Oliver by Dickens (The Artful Dodger).

At least. I'm 95% confident that they're referencing those two characters.

Ah ok, many thanks on clearing that up. I saw Dodger and I thought Duck which of course made me think Buck.

But it's not the 24th and a half century.
