Welcome back, ThisOneGal. ^^ I'm glad to hear that things are a little more back on track for you now.<br/><br/>I think that there might be a slight bit of confusion as far as Antimony's mesh-related actions are concerned, though.  You had said I had already gained access to the cyberbrains of the neo-gorillas on the last update, so my last action was to start scorching those cyberbrains.  That +12 I rolled was an attack made to cause damage, not my roll for a contest.  The neo-gorilla drones are the only ones participating in the contest, and they can either roll to defend against my attacks or roll to try and get enough successes to boot me out of the system, the latter of which is made against a static target number of +2.<br/><br/>Basically, it's like how hacking happens in the big-budget Hollywood blockbusters. I'm already inside, so now it's a question of whether or not they can push me back out before I do enough damage to bring them down. ^^;<br/><br/>Edit: ...Or am I the one who's misunderstanding things, perhaps?
