How do the knowledge skills street rumor and corporate rumor work in this case?  I have a dice pool of 12 and 8 respectively.

There's two ways we can run this:

Both require that I know exactly what it is you want to know, so at least in the IC have her think to herself, Hunh, what have I heard about X, recently... or something.

Then:

1. She tries to remember:  Roll the knowledge skill with a limit based on the hits on a memory check.

2. She actively tries to run down information:  takes up some of your down time actions, but you can roll the skill outright, with added dice for any suitable contacts you might have.
That's just like... your opinion, man.

Done.  Is it specific enough?  I have a memory pool of 12 d
Also I assumed that if I did have to roll to actually use the comm link, and failed, Tate I'd be able to keep doing it until I succeeded.
Let me know if I should ask the group to stop near Manny's to get the goggles.  It's obviously up to you (or your rolls) whether or not he has a set laying around.

Is there any way for Redline to do a cursory check of the room for any hidden listening devices? I've got a rating 3 commlink but not sure what the applicable skill or gear would be.

@ Forest:

Memory Test for Street Rumors: 4 hits
Street Rumors Test: 3 Hits

You remember something about a run in Renton.  A High Threat Response team was called out to a NeoNet HR office building.  No one knew what the run was about, they were only talking about it because this kid calling himself 'Mace' almost got geeked by Knight Errant with an older runner taking the hit for him.  The team got away, rumor has it that they completed the job, but an ambulance showed up to take away the bullet riddled body of the older runner.  No one thought that the guy was gonna survive the night.

Memory Test for Corporate Rumors: 3 hits
Corporate Rumors Test: 3

Health Point is a 'teaching' hospital.  A few residents, but mostly medical interns, both doctors and nurses.  They are cheaper than standard hospitals, so Knight Errant often uses them to patch up criminals that they've banged up and want to keep around, usually for questioning, they rarely spend much effort reviving folks they would just send to the slammer otherwise.
That's just like... your opinion, man.

apologies for the delay in posting.  I was out of town this weekend doing a concert/fan-club thing.  So my brains were a bit scattered.

Staying in AR, I log into the Matrix and access the public part of the Host for the Health Point.  I look for a list of doctors, visitor's map, basic hospital overview (their webpage info).  I also try and get a peek at their security, to get a feel for how powerful the Host is (Host rating), get a view of the Patrol IC, and get a general overview.  I don't do anything that will trigger OS or the IC, just get a basic overview of the hospital while I listen to the others.

After I have that sort of information I will sort it into AROs, with a basic map and list of doctors/interns for everyone.  I also sort out any Dwarf interns they have listed.

I will leave it to you to roll anything I need for this.  My deck has Wrapper running (looks like a comlink), and I keep my persona looking pretty average/nondescript.  I am not going to sneak or do anything to raise any notice this visit.

Ravener is able to easily locate the Health Point Host.  The Host will happily grant 1 Mark to any who request it for their Public Host.

Within, you do find a list of Residents and a basic Floor Plan.  You see that they have an internship program, but do not find a list of current interns.  It notes the Knight Errant is the contracted security company.

“It was an amazing experience...that many other nursing students did not have. My teachers were very impressed with the knowledge I already had.”— Thomas Finley, University of Washington

“Most PA schools require A LOT of work/volunteer hours because they are all very fast paced programs and its beneficial to have some experience...I wish I could have done more! It is a great program!”— Karen Jones, Physician Assistant Student, Seattle College of Medicine

A Matrix Perception Test locates the Secure Host as well as the Patrol Ice in the Public host.  The Public host is a rating 3 Host, the Secure host is a rating 4 Host.  The Secure Host does not offer Marks, so you would have to actually hack it.  It is separate from the Public Host.

Feel free to make an IC post regarding some of this.

Also, check the Needle Net post for information on the Pincushion:

https://shaking-the-shadows.obsidianportal.com/wikis/needle-net

Read both the IC section (from Tone Loco) and then scroll down for instructions on how to use it.  Then when you go over to it, you will notice I've already created a link for Health Point.  When you select the link, it'll open a 'create' page.  Go ahead and create the page and put in whatever info you think Ravener would.
That's just like... your opinion, man.

Once you make that page, I'll post the actual map you downloaded.

Alright, so Cherie is calling Hank, Redline and Ravener are going to check out the Ambulance, riding in Ravener's Truck.

Jujin Kai has simply left, asking to be called when they need him.

Whiskey and Raiden are doing what?
That's just like... your opinion, man.

After parking on a street near the closest Stuffer Shack to the Ambulance I am going to make my run against the Health Point host.  I will be in Hot Sim VR, running Exploit, Baby Monitor, and Sneak.  My ASDF is set at 7/3/5/5.  As I am running Baby Monitor, I am going to know my OS score at all times, if it reaches 30 I will pause what I am doing and make a decision to continue or jack out and reboot depending on what I am doing.  (Pause my actions and let me know where I am).  If I pick up a mark from the system, assume that I am also pausing and probably jacking out to reboot.

Since I know where the host is already, I will transfer to the public host (so I am off the public grid).  I will then switch to silent running, and Hack on the Fly to get on the Private Host (+2d Hotsim, -2d Silent, 15d[7]  http://orokos.com/roll/294272  4 hits).  If I get a mark against me, I will drop out to AR and reset my deck.  I will then try again. 

Once on the host I will search for the Security Spider and IC.  If the spider is running silent, I make a Matrix Perception check (6d[5] http://orokos.com/roll/294274  2 hits).  If I get sufficient hits, I am interested spotting the spider and his Firewall rating.  If I don't spot him I move on.   

Then I will search for the new hire Intern datafiles, Matrix Search (6d[5] repeated until I find it or am discovered, assuming no higher than threshold 3 as it is regularly accessed...http://orokos.com/roll/294278 2 hits...http://orokos.com/roll/294279 2 more hits)

I will then Hack on the Fly to put a mark on the Intern List (15d[7] http://orokos.com/roll/294280  sigh, 3 hits  If I have sufficient net hits, I will look for a data bomb.  If not, I will Hack on the fly again (15d[7] http://orokos.com/roll/294281  5 hits)  Looking for Data Bomb, and file protection and level.

Next, I will either Disarm Data Bomb (edged for 8d6 http://orokos.com/roll/294282 3 hits), and/or Crack File as needed (switching Sleaze/Attack first, then 13d[7] http://orokos.com/roll/294283 1 hit...not sure I like this dice program...).  If I need to retry to Crack File (at this point with a mark on me, 13d[7] http://orokos.com/roll/294284 4 hits). 

For anything further I need to know what has happened.  I will be editing the file (if I am still undetected) or copying it to my deck for further editing if I am detected for later edit and copy/paste back into the system.  If I missed a required roll in there, please just make it for me.

Cherie is sitting in the truck keeping watch and casting the clean earth spell then erasing her signature repeatedly.  It's what she does when she is waiting.

Redline checking out the area around the ambulance and the vehicle itself:

Perception test to see if anything around seems off: http://orokos.com/roll/294370 3 hits.
Automotive mechanic test to check the engine and make any repairs http://orokos.com/roll/294371 1 hit. If anything does seem off, Redline will take more time as needed to fully repair the engine.
Perception test to check the interior of the ambulance for any contents, signs of previous use and any abnormalities: http://orokos.com/roll/294376 2 hits.

With 4 hits, you do not sleaze a MARK.  You reboot and try again.  Despite 7 hits on your second attempt, you still do not manage a MARK.  Third times a charm, as you get 5 hits and learn that the Host is a rating 4 Host.

You enter the Host.  It is sculpted to look like a hospital with very clean architecture.  You notice that there are a few roving orderlies, probably Patrol IC spawned from your previous failed attempts.

You do not manage to find any Spiders or IC beyond the three roaming orderlies.

You conduct a data search to find the files you are looking for.  As the search itself is not an illegal action, the orderlies don't seem to pay mind to you, even on those few occasions you are sure one of them saw you.  It takes only a few minutes to find the list.

You manage to sleaze a MARK onto the file on your first attempt.  The orderlies move about and you reflexively duck your head as they pass you, standing before the filing cabinet, but they don't seem to notice you.

You have to start with a Matrix Perception Test to see if there even is a Data Bomb on the file.  You get two hits on the Matrix Perception Test and do not find a Data Bomb.  The file is not encrypted.  You do not use any Edge at this time.

For anything further I need to know what has happened.  I will be editing the file (if I am still undetected) or copying it to my deck for further editing if I am detected for later edit and copy/paste back into the system.  If I missed a required roll in there, please just make it for me.

You decide to Edit the file, which is not an illegal action: In approximately 10 seconds, you manage to make the changes you want to make.

Unless there is anything else you want to do...?
That's just like... your opinion, man.
