Could be, Khajiit. I am not sure what Veronica's personal quest is. That's probably buried under all the other Misc quests. For now, Linda isn't pursuing anything there, other than .. uh ... companionship.

Yes it is Teamwork, very perceptive.

Linda's game is going to shift, by the way. She started to try finding Vault 3 but the place is just surrounded by mobs. Linda got bonked in the head pretty badly, and got a concussion. It's just too much for her to handle. She's focusing on easier stuff from now on. Maybe in the future I'll roll a new too-- I mean create a new character.

[SubRosa]

A new too-, um character? That means a new name!

[TheCheshireKhajiit]

That means a new name!

Lol, indeed!

Jan has been busy in post apocalyptia. She just finished exploring all of the west bank of the DC ruins today. Including the Nuka Plant. Now she can make nuka grenades. She has cleared the entire eastern bank of the river already, and about half the ruins on that side of the river. Including most of the metros lines.

Before her latest sojourn into the wastes she relived Moriarity of the torment of life. She returned several days later to find Gob's name over his on the saloon, and Nova no longer a working girl. So improvements all around.

Now she has ventured out west. Finding dear old dad is on her list of things to do while he is out there. Eventually.

[Renee]

Yeha, another silly name, soon! I've got a longer list of names for males than I do females, so I'm sure I'll find something funny. Next character will probly be a man. There are a lot of guys in real-life who don't mind getting into situations which they can potentially get beat up (I've worked with a few), whereas Linda's not like this.

Congrats on pwning Moriarty, that guy's an ass.

Today I packed up my gear for this year's Point Lookout trip. As always I will do the ghoul hunt in the N-E as well as wandering the swamp and maybe visit Renee in her moonshine house

I'm currently in Rivet City with Gunny and next session will have us going to the ferry and heading over to the hicks. Will be fun! Well, for me anyway. Gunny will as usual be staying in the Capital Wasteland, just by the docks, awaiting my return.

Yaaay!! Point Lookout is my favorite part of Fallout3! Perfect for October with all the eeriness!

[Renee]

Pfft hicks and moonshine in Maryland. Now that is something.

Indeed it is

I started over, and just had a weird encounter. January was on her way from Megaton to the Super Duper Mart, and stopped in the ruined house on the road between the two. The one with the Chinese Stealth Manual in it. She had just picked up the manual when someone ran up to her and forced dialogue.

Those!

Then he ran off.

I am not sure if that has ever happened before. Usually it is always Bryan. I am sure he is coming, since I just got to the Super Duper Mart. He is usually never far away.

[Renee]

Ha that is unusual. Maybe if a Settler gets too close to Greyditch, some unused AI kicks in IF the Player is also near.

Yes, I'd say Bryan is still on his way.

[SubRosa]

Now that I ruminate my brain cells on it, I am sure this has happened to me before. I remember that guys face, and his "I'm not saying its aliens"-guy hair. It has been a really long time since I have played Fallout 3.

That guy gets Grayditch on your map; but won't give you the "Those" quest. Sometimes Bryan's AI has him missing for a while; and that Wastelander steers you to the town where you can hopefully find either Bryan or Lesko. It was a great failsafe move on Bethesda's part = one of the things I always loved (still love) so much about that game =
the Devs covered every possibility in those quests. It really made the game great!

[Lopov]

I encountered that wastelander only once, it was in the Hobo's game. The encounter took place very far from Grayditch, somewhere close to Paradise Falls, I think.

EDIT: It's good that I take so many pics. Here it is, the wastelander running to the Hobo. The pic is about 4 years old, says Imgur.

Entering

[SubRosa]

I did some things different in January's new game. This time around she took the subway tunnels from the west bank of the Potomac all the way to the Mall. There she got the Virgo dish from the Lunar Module. This is without going to GNR or meeting Three Dog. She went to the Washington Monument, but could not get in. It is locked and can only be opened with a key.

So now she backtracked and made her way to GNR. Interesting thing, Sarah Lyons and company were not there. January had to fight her way through the mutant hordes on her own. The dead BOS'er with the Fatman was not in front of GNR either. I looked it up in the Fallout Wiki, and it says that this is normal if you do it in this order.

However, once going inside January was able to talk to Three Dog as normal, and got the quest to install the dish. She is now on the way back to the Wash Mon to install it.

[Lopov]

Was the Behemoth gone as well?

[Acadian]

GNR? That's Gun'N Roses, right?

WOO HOO! Acadian knows Guns'N Roses? WOOOOOOOOT !!!!! Where is my diary ...

[Renee]

Ha ha Galaxy News Radio. That's the station which plays all the "cool" old music, Sarah Vaughn and Billy Holiday-type music (not that those two artists are in the game, but it's that sort of music). There is also Enclave Radio, which plays patriotic songs, such as Yankee Doodle Dandy.
