---|---|---|---|
Offense ≥ 1 | You batter the file system, easily wiping out its data. | O+1 | (removes routine) |
View = 1-2, sometimes | You find a number of connection records to the same site, but the records don't seem intended to be human-readable. You'll probably need more powerful tools. | 1 | — |
View ≥ 3, sometimes | You find a number of connections to one site… one of which still contains the account information. Score! | 2 | Gain 2 XP You found: NNN account |
View ≥ 2 and CF ≥ 1d10+2, sometimes | You send out a few test connections, then compare them against the logs. It makes things a bit clearer. You find a number of connections to one site… one of which still contains the account information. Score! |
2 | Gain 2 XP You found: NNN account |
View ≥ 2, sometimes | You track a connection to <random University Net site>, you should be able to follow it back from The Net, at least until the cleanup processes catch up with you. Or, if all sites available are destroyed: A lot of the links are to student sites, but someone's done a pretty good job sanitizing everything so you can't follow along. |

View ≥ 3 and additional condition (see discussion) | One time only, after hearing about it from Professor Evans: You have an idea where they might be hiding this. Going over the connection records with a fine tooth comb, you find a tiny hidden file with "Happy Easter!" and a web address on it. The icon, however, depicts a shining golden computer chip, so it might be what you're looking for. Checking the address cautiously, you find a strange node filled with stranger people, buying and selling information. Looks like the right place. |
2 - 6 | Gain 2 XP You've gained access to a new site The Golden Chip |
