...probably doesn't help that I named all 26 of Tesseract's mooks.

...Can we see the spreadsheet?

I know I'm one of the ones who ain't doing that. My bad Sul.

—snaps fingers— For instance, I forgot to count Tesseract's named, important mooks. I counted the Hand Ninjas one of his underlings controls as a single unit; likewise with Kirei's mob of Assassins.

And I'm afraid I cannot show you the spreadsheet, Vox, as it would give away certain plot developments. Until such time as that would no longer present a concern, the spreadsheet is for the GM's use only.

If you want to know what sorts of things it tracks, however, I will list them. The spreadsheets has fields for characters':

• Name
• Affiliation (Science, Magic, Eclipse or Neutral [i.e., NPCs ]; and yes, I even went to the trouble of formatting them with those colours)
• Location
• Current Status
• And "Gains powers of," which is a column for tracking what superheroes/supervillains the characters have gained or will gain the powers of.

If you want figures, I can provide those as well. As of my last count, we have:

• 18 Magic characters;
• 18 Science characters (counting grots & squiggohmu as a single unit);
• 35 Eclipse characters, including Overlords and minions (counting groups such as the Daleks, the Hand ninjas, Kirei's Assassin Servant, and Ahriman's tzaangors [save the four named ones] as single units);
• 16 NPCs, including both native superheroes and supervillains (but not including miscellaneous civilians);
• And two characters defecting from Sifuri to Eclipse, thus leaving their ultimate loyalties in question (Gavrill and Loki).

Thus, that gives us a total of 89; but as I said, I left out some of Tesseract's mooks by accident.

I still have my sifuri spreadsheet open at least, if anyone wants to see at a glance where everyone is at in the taskforce. Though I'm relying on all yall to keep it updated at the moment

You can pretty much count Tesseract's mooks as one unit, I just named them all for fun and usefulness.

Also, technically there is also another unit under Tesseract's mook's control, a horrifically mutated alternate-universe Charles Xavier. Also, they do have Ultron and have connected him up to a Furby.

So we finally achieved parity after all.

According to the papers, some English aristocrat got caught frolicking with prostitutes, doing lines off their breasts, wearing a bra, and making insulting comments towards fellow politicians.

All I can imagine is Garth Ennis laughing himself sick in between bouts of "told you so!"

Assuming those prostitutes weren't underage, he would be what we call "one of the good ones".

The most disgusting thing about that incident is the fact that he used a five pound note to snort the cocaine.

Dear God man, you go to the trouble of hiring prostitutes, you buy coke, you lay out lines on their much-younger-than-you bodies, and you don't have the decency to use a hundred pound note? For shame.

The recession evidently affects all classes of society.

Oh WOW, compared to THAT, American politicians are practically straight edge in their shenanigans. XD

So while things weren't moving, I was able to watch Rogue Nation in a premiere in Manila. Although that was sponsored by my uncle's university class batch (Forgot what year).

American politicians have better PR.

So on the subject of Eclipse, is there a need to wrap things up? The Nerubians are happily killing and converting civilians but they can go against the other Empire Staters, the ork fight can be ended in a post (or two, if any particularly witty insults come to mind).

Good news, everyone!

We've solidified our plans and have finished divvying up responsibilities. Barring any unforeseen complications, we should be up and running again by this time tomorrow.

Oh good, because we had begun planning a Tatu/Menardi/Tesseract sandwich.

Yes, so I've heard.

Would have happened eventually. Told ya man, no one's immune to shipping.

Loki is still trapped between an Armani and Dio manwhich

So, has much changed from strat's original vision of the challenge?

Did you just doublepost? Not really, but be prepared for some whacks.
