Argh! The one time in the week I can't get to a phone.
Good luck, everyone.
Gibbon's suggestion about the list of common crimes is great. Match that with the map for accurate street names etc and we're set.
One thought: do the PXC police have any kind of equivalent of CCTV? I'm wondering whether they they'll be able to see that, for example, there's no riot in Mazy Avenue by glancing at surveillance screens. Might it be better to stick to events on private property or in dark alleys?

This is exactly my reasoning in the thread for the attack on the PXC police, but you have said it so much better than me Guin!!!
I think thats a sound idea, it will divert the police, and the attention of any left at the police station, they (I assume) wuold be excited to be about to catch one of the biggest criminals in Perplex City.
The only problem I can see with doing this, is they are going to want names, and if they are as good as they make out, if we give names, it would be easy to see that they are not real names. It is on earth for the police after all, by just using computers to check.

Sorry
Heres an idea then - we have a vast amount of names for PXC - just look at the Hesh Intranet
Besides if there is a RFD event then there are also going to be reps out there too.
EDIT- just for good measure http://hesh-intranet.com/heshencrypted/staff.php

Just a minor note, on earth the emergency numbers log your phone number, how is Kurt going to disguise where the calls are coming from or do their 'mobile' numbers also start with 07, so we'll belnd in if we use mobiles? Surely land lines would give us away?
Can't you set your phones to not show up a number when you call? (Or do the emergency services override that?)
Otherwise we'll have to IGNORE THAT just like we ignore the mole being an MC employee.
Or it could be an intended part of the plot; "ZOMG EARTH IS AGAINST US!"

Then again I may get arrested - making strange calls from the loo......

well i gotta go and no number I wont have internet access either but i had an idea
I was thinking of using the Name Ron Eggby (research intern at Hesh, office number 403 for contact details if required) spotting Juniper Onego on the corner of Glass Road and Random Walk (in Old Town) looking suspiciously like he was exchanging small packets for Lecks.
well good luck guys. Use this if you will but enjoy the games..............
I am soooooo jealous

Good point, not sure if they can override it? I doubt it, but if we all do that we'll take care of that slight potential they may doof us on a technicality/over-sight
