Does anyone still have that video on D47, where a civil protection sweep goes from co-ordinated to everyone running for their lives over VC the moment 'Lost' appeared with the SPAS12?

sadly not the one,
if I recall correctly, it's in the catwalks section of that old d47 sewer system.
believe it was from the version before Zak's expansion of the map. hell, may have been pre red letter day

If you remember the Stuntick Fiesta Olympics hosted by The Emergents on rp_ineu_valley, then I am sure that you do not remember what happened to Orsted's won goods - because nobody but two people and me were around to witness it.

@Appetite Ruining Kebab had posted an RP doc thread that described how to contact Lambda sleeper agents in it's non-favorite child region of Romania, and that they were offering goods in exchange for Combine weapons, items of interest, and particularly hostages rescued from The Emergents. The hostage in question was pretty damn valuable.

So I went and contacted ARK on Steam, agreed on what time we'd connect to the server and start the rollenspiel. At that time, the UK was sleeping nice and sound because of how late it was. Timezone difference basically made the entirety of the map belong to me, so there was no fear of any opposition.

What I had to do was contact ARK's event character via radio. I did just that and was met with a character that was pretending to be some kind of prostitutes-for-hire-business-owning telephone operator, and I had to figure out which "numbers" I had to pick in order to convey what I was willing to exchange with Lambda. I came up with something along the lines of "Number Five - the most beautiful woman of Bucharest, Linda".

The whole reason why we had to keep up this show was because, by lore, Bucharest was something that Lambda would like to stay out of, primarily because of how ugly things there are in terms of politics and the humanitarian situation, but couldn't refuse from having some important Lambda figures rescued from the humanitarian shithole. Who the hostage was with me, I couldn't know - couldn't find out their gender, either. See picture for the explanation.

Orsted had won a Stalker from The Emergents' olympics.
We really didn't have any use for it.
But Lambda did.​

The character on the radio then went on a little speech, talking about how Lambda had set up Stalker Rehabilitation Centers across the European region, and how it views each Stalker as a human despite their horrible disfigurations - how their gender pronouns are to be also respected.
What happened to the "pretending-to-be-not-Lambda", I don't know, but it was an interesting bit of information that I thought of to be useful in my real politiks™ with Lambda - my only source of Xen Crystals for my character's Gravity Gun.

I had a funny thought when I heard the last part, and I had attempted the following;
*** Kingston Phaland attempts to determine the gender of Stalker...
[PM] Nathaniel Dwight -> Kingston Phaland: No.
[PM] Nathaniel Dwight -> Kingston Phaland: you are not looking at a stalker's genitals














































[PM] Kingston Phaland -> Nathaniel Dwight: ok thank god then this means it won't be important in the negotiations
[PM] Kingston Phaland -> Nathaniel Dwight: When you said to me that Lambda takes Stalker's pronouns seriously, I wrote it down
[PM] Kingston Phaland -> Nathaniel Dwight: lol
[PM] Nathaniel Dwight -> Kingston Phaland: LOL
[PM] Nathaniel Dwight -> Kingston Phaland: it was an improvised joke!
[PM] Kingston Phaland -> Nathaniel Dwight: you never know.....

Needless to say, Linda had a good night - being rescued from Bucharest that was soon to be ravaged.

Also if anyone has the video of the time I unknowingly wiped a CP squad because my armour made me invisible, I've been trying to find that video again for ages.
Unless he killed the cops with his tears I doubt it was him...
