Alrighty, so just a little update on a few things so everyone knows where we're headed here:

1. Current Time Skip- We're looking at keeping it open just a little longer and will probably start looking at the next skip the latter part of this week so you still have time for one or two more rounds. Groups should be thinking about what their characters did during the time that they were snowed-in. This just may be important later on. Did you get to know your group members at all? We know some had a harder time than others due to absences and commitments, but what we're really looking for is if there was a genuine effort made.

2. Next Skip- Is going to be a Tuesday. Either morning or afternoon. We haven't decided yet. Again, what did your characters do in the "off-camera" time? You're going to want to think about that as your characters head into their posts for the next skip. We feel like a Tuesday is enough time for the snow to subside and progress made in making the roads passable/ power to be restored, etc.

3. Contest Winners- @MissCapnCrunch & @Rodiak will both be getting a major clue through PM as to where the story is headed, but BE WARNED, if you try and meta-game the clue you won in the contest, then there will probably be harsh repercussions for your character(s) as well as anyone else with whom you decide to spill the beans. We will present the information in such a way that your character will be able to use it without breaking the fourth wall. We already have the ending to the story mapped out and much of it is based on the choices various people have made throughout the game. That being said, we can still yank the steering wheel in a different direction if we see fit.

That's all for now. Look at your groups and see who is up to post next, don't just wait out the skip. We have been paying close attention not only to who people have interacted with during the course of the game thus far, but also what places the characters have traveled. Consider this in your posting.

Good luck,

GM Staff

"yes.. a half naked woman screaming like a cat and eating pizza in a box is art.. i know..." Rando 2018, On modern art


Storms over... but the clean up has begun ... yes you have to shovel the drive

But if you wanted to get out the bikini and the BBQ you may be early!

So to the aftermath, you'rE all alive and managed not to drink your own piss? good though Bob from HR who bugged you last week probably looked tasty. paths be icey, snow be about but its cleared up and city services are mostly restored with heavy delays at the local ports and airports. So wanna go to Hawaii to use that Bikini? You may have to wait!

Power and Cell service is mostly restored. systems are still in recovery though from the extreme weather.

Importantly, please consider how you filled in the gap between the two, and if it effects your group or not. All the more interesting when things start to inter relate and mix up a abit.

NOW, skip-wise this one is free but we have some little optional events on. Feel free to attend or take your own path.

Old Sol Museum
Free Exhibition Hours run from 9am-12pm & 3pm-5pm. Enjoy!

Ideal when the crowds get to you, walk amongst the new fashion exhibition and maybe find some inspiration for a great vintage look. For the family old dippers, a replica of the famous dinosaurs from London's legendary natural history museum dominates the main hall and many others in the classic DinoSol exhibit.

Now hosting the grand Middle Eastern and greater Asian jewel exhibition, with some of the finest examples of the jewelers arts from ancient Persia to modern cutting edge design.

Also a must see, the Old Masters' Tour. Examples of some of the finest of Europe's works from Davinci, Canaletto, and more.


Swan Songs
Open all day for music lovers. Open Mic, Live music or just chill and enjoy some nice music while the city runs around like headless chickens!

A special day put on by Swan Songs for those with a musical soul, free buffet, snacks and guaranteed to have the best music in the city!

ARRESTS UNDERWAY FROM CLUB RIOT

As promised, under the personal direction of the District Attorney, SCPD has been out in force since the conclusion of Winter Storm Sarah rounding up those charged with escalating violence at the Club Aether brawl. Star Messenger has learned that in addition to arresting the Head of Security of Club Aether, that several close followers of Sol City’s Siren’s band are also among those being arraigned in City Court. In addition, A leaked cell-phone video from the night of the incident has made its way around the internet in recent days showing the altercation and the aftermath in vivid detail, prompting more cries for justice from those injured.

The video, purportedly taken by a club-goer has only recently surfaced as the party responsible for capturing the violence on film feared retribution from the Club as well as others that were caught on camera. SCPD continues to ask for your help in rounding up those being charged. A complete list of those under warrant can be found on SCPD’s website and anyone with information wishing to come forward should use SCPD’s secure tip-line. The Chief of Police assures that anyone who comes forward will be confidential and protected.

Gossip and who's HOT!

A special Interview from Rita!



Hello Sol Spills readers. Boy does this reporter have a treat for you!!! I was able to book that fab race car driver that you've all been buzzing about!!! Mr Joel Nicolosi. He's tall dark and handsome and after my interview possibly more mysterious!!! I'll let you decide...

Rita: What drew you to racing?

Joel: I don't know, it was my dad i guess. He always loved cars and I grew up learning from him. It's just something about it. Whether it's a quarter-mile or a full-on race. I feel alive, it's hard to describe, but if you could feel every cell in your body, like if they were all just electrified by your soul… That's what it's like. That's what draws me.

Rita: Why so much later in life?

Joel: Geez, you make me feel really old. I'm just 33! No, but seriously where I'm at now was never really β€˜the plan’, so to speak. I knew I could make a decent living fixing and tuning when I was a kid. All the old hands are retiring or dying out and there's just not a lot of interest in it from, I guess, β€˜young people’ this day in age. I know that sounds like an old person talking, but no one wants to get their hands dirty. Racing just came as an afterthought that took off. I got pretty lucky in that regard.

Rita: I'm told you built the entire car that you raced, is that true?

Joel: Heh, that car has been rebuilt at least three times, but yeah, I built most of it myself. The major components sanctioned by the FIA are uniform across the board for all cars, like the brakes, the transmission, the roll-cage and so on. You can't just buy those parts online or on the street. It's expensive and that's where you need sponsorships to get in the game. The steering wheel in that car costs more than the Jeep I drove here for this interview.

Rita: Do you plan on closing up shop and racing full time?

Joel: I wouldn't say I'm closing up shop, but since I signed with the team, I'm going to be around a lot less. I still have a couple projects going, but they're only things that I want to work on. I'm fortunate now that I can work as a hobby rather than a necessity.

Rita: So if you're not closing up shop are you still working on a project? If so what is it and who for if, you don't mind me asking?

Joel: I have my own GT-R that I brought back from Japan similar to the one I raced against in the Grand Prix and a late model Corvette that belongs to a friend in the shop right now. I'm actually running out of space.

Rita: Juggling a forte of yours? With the shop and racing are you going to find time for yourself?

Joel: If I'm doing what I want to be doing, then it's all time for myself.

Rita: Is the manager from the race going to be your team manager?

Joel: No, the team already has all that set up so I pretty much just have to show up and drive which is nice. Lou and my dad just kinda filled a needed function as far as managing our little β€˜team’. We all kinda managed it though, in a way, everyone did their part and we could all usually get along long enough to make things happen. I wouldn't call it a β€˜family business’, but that's what it felt like sometimes. I will miss working with all those guys.

Rita: Anyone special in your life, as a significant other?

Joel: I got a few irons in that fire, but I don't kiss and tell either.

He's just yummy isn't he? I wonder who those irons are? Well this reporter was curious and did some digging. Spoilers readers!!! He's been seen with Marinalia Olympus a flight instructor out at our airport, Sol International. A cool blonde with a British accent. But he's also been seen much more recently and frequently with Siobhan Murphy. A firey redhead that happens to be one of my favorites in the art world. She is very active in charities that deal with Sexual Assault Victims and Suicide Prevention since the age of eighteen. Personally I'm pulling for the redhead. Good luck ladies and may the odds be ever in your favor.

Oh. We Don, t have one... It's just implied.

But we do have the hostile fan girls on it, thanks to bottle and starting things off. Attack on Ashton etc.
Victoria and Marlin are off it thanks to Ehten and some unconfirmed actions to prevent them being identified. Victoria owes Ethen for that.

A few of thr security team likely who charged into the cops etc and hurt them.
And misc persons who might have been up to no good that night.

We tend to keep things loose as detailed details cause arguments etc.
