"Of course we bloody do. Our businesses are in peril. What the hell is going on out there?"
"We... don't know. All of our stock has been purchased, and drone-shipped before we could prevent it."
"Same here."
"And here. Bastard fucking robots, I knew they'd be the end of us."
"Don't look at me - we're having just as much trouble as you all are."
The CEO of Postdyne reclined in his chair after speaking.
"I think we know that this is serious. Even our communications channels have been compromised. When have we ever had a face-to-face meeting, with all of us present?"
"It's a novelty, I'll grant."
"I think we all know what this is due to, as well. Martin Vigil and his bastard machinations."
Vigil's nephew looked down at his templed fingers.
"He's been... dealt with, shall we say."
"We're not idiots, we know you killed him. The question is; what was in those centre servers?"
"We all were searching for them. Trying to open them."
"What have we unleashed?"
"Gentlemen. I do not know. All I do know is this; we need to outfit our employees with the best we can provide. We need to hunt down whatever it is that we've freed."
"I have a few prototype weapons I've been saving," the ZenonAuto CEO intoned; "I will provide access to them for all of you. Make sure that whichever of your employees get hold of them are on our damn side, though, yes?"
"Terms we can all agree with, I think. One last thing, gentlemen."
"Yes?"
"This is not an alliance. I still want to watch you all burn."
"Rest assured the feeling is mutual."

Something strange is happening. The following weapons and items are now sold out:
The Corporations feel they are under threat, and are allowing you to choose one of the following weapons for free today. Please note that access to your free weapon will require a rigorous security check. If, for some reason, you think you might fail it, it would be best to not attempt to obtain a free weapon.
Well I think it's obvious what's going on here. Whatever dumb son of a goose hacked A9 let out the AI, and now it's going to fucking kill us all. Some people may have even been turned to its side, as some sort of Delayed Mafia.
You're one of the ones who cracked A9, is the deal
Actually it seems like you are, you went into A9. You said so yourself.
I also vigged kime.
But really, you know that I know that you know that your spies know this isn't true. (awesome) I'm willing to admit that I was way too lax about my build and actions on the first two days.
I guess if you don't know then you have horrible spies!
Also, I'm entering Grid A9. Assuming I survive and my wish is granted, this game just got a whole lot more fun.
Seriously, why is this in question?

Well, I guess if everyone votes me off, they vote me off. But if they want to hit someone who may have actually been in A9, and thus maybe responsible for Alegis' death then they should probably target someone who's actually built as a hacker.
Which is funny, Reg, you being a member of Vigint with your bonus level of hacker perk... what orders did you submit yesterday?
Well the global economy has just collapsed due to some goose buying everything. A sky laser just ate a Shadowrunner. The Black Market is now in full swing. The Corps are feeling threatend enough to have their RnD departments put the heads together to get some batshit crazy weapons. And then just hand them out if they feel you are loyal.

My orders for last night consisted of my entering Z7, so I am aware of the remaining members of ZenonAuto. Not that it matters much...

I asked TheLaw to bandwagon Alegis. Instead we got the Shushnikwagon.
What's the deal with Alegis, Law?
On
all
goods
I explained that to you already, some people voted for Shushnik, making it easier to put the vote there. What's the deal?
Also, ZA is in a pretty sorry state now, ain't it?

Actually it seems like you are, you went into A9. You said so yourself.
So, you're trying to kill everyone, Ringo?
I also vigged kime.

Which is funny, Reg, you being a member of Vigint with your bonus level of hacker perk... what orders did you submit yesterday?
And the EG hacker chimes in.
Seriously, if you don't know my build, what have you been doing all game?
chillin'
mindin' my business
If you are ultimately working for a Corporation, you will pass it.
So, anything interesting going on?
Well the global economy has just collapsed due to some goose buying everything. A sky laser just ate a Shadowrunner. The Black Market is now in full swing.

So, no, not really.
