Well, Holly's fate has been decided. She is going to restart, but not as a part of this competition. I was thinking about it and I just thought this would be a great time to give my "Death With Consequences" a trial run.

So, I'll be making a thread somewhere and I will post my self-imposed rules (as soon as I've finalized them) along with updates there so everybody can see how it goes. However, I'm not certain where to put that thread, because "Dead is Dead" doesn't fit... and I'd like to put it in a thread that is open to guests for viewing to see if any interest is generated. Suggestions anyone?

I actually have no idea which forums are "open viewing" by guests now. Kane?

I think I would put in in the DiD thread anyway... under competition, but kinda like my "mini games".. not all of those are DiD.. it's just under that topic. The only other thing I could suggest is General..


Edit: Neither to I Sere...

Or Enduring Stories - but still, don't know if that's visible to guests. If Kane doesn't pop up tonight, I'll poke him in the morning.

I'd put it under competitions and maybe just clarify in the Thread Title something like NOT Dead Is Dead but there WILL BE CONSEQUENCES ;)

Pretty much everything except the story section is open to the public.

(I've been here most of the night - trying to catch up on the story book!)

Okay then. Neil, you might want to just make a new topic wherever you think fits best.

Thanks kane!

Bram, I think that's a really good idea, as long as there are no objections from anybody. :)

I've posted Kristy updates on the FO4 screenies thread, but thought I might update here too! Imagine that. The reason I haven't tallied and posted her "score" is two fold: Darcy was much higher level with many more accomplishments, and I'm lazy.

Kristy is level 35 now, and ready for some serious exploration, especially further south. She has been doing Minutemen and Railroad quests, and in fact just took the Castle last night. Where Darcy was a wild-eyed killer, Kristy is much more "thoughtful," cautious and caring. That caring aspect has really shown itself with her settlements. Kristy has to have her settlements be well set up; not super fortresses mind you but well defended and equipped. That takes time and resources. Sigh.
She is currently running with Deacon, but will move on to MacCready when she gets Deacon's perk. Hey, she is caring, but has goals too!

Kristy does believe in a strong home base, and here she and Deacon arrive back to Sunshine

The Minutemen inevitably ruin associated playthroughs. At a certain point, it becomes so tedious that I get sick of it.

Oh I know it! Last night we got the first "ghoul problem at..." and I groaned a bit :bang: I just can't do the Institute side again, so it's either BOS or MM...and that is still to be decided.

Most of the time these days, I get those missions from Garvey, and I just ignore them until I'm damned good and ready to do them. That way they don't bother me much. However, when Good Ol' Preston starts gushing about the radio tower at the castle, and how he can contac me anywhere in the commonwealth, I just want to tell him "Why don't you just take that radio tower, just shove it up yer arse... and rotate. Then maybe you can have radar too..."

Heh, first thing I do after taking the Castle is hit the power switch for the speakers. That way, I can;t pick up a quest just for being there.

Kristy, level 37, was killed by Capt Bridgette(?) via Fat Man from the Gunner overpass/junkyard just past The Forge. She couldn't get a VATS on him, so hit him a couple of times sighted, then lost him as he ducked behind the trucks up there. Other gunners were closing in, so she took those out and then heard the woosh of an incoming nuke, hit VATS and no go...toasted to a crisp. My strat wasn't good...should have taken the overpass crowd out from The Forge upper structures like I have in the past. Fighting from the low ground isn't solid, but hindsight is a beech :( No room for dumbass stuff when nukes are involved!

I'll total up Darcy's score and post that, and say farewell to this competition. I think I'm just going to play "for fun" now without worrying about those pesky deaths ;)

Vault Assisted Targeting System = VATS very loosely the Pip-boy provides the ability to target individual body parts, head, arms, legs, torso with greater accuracy and increased damage. Time slows but does not stop while one is in VATS targeting and then resumes when you shoot.
